However, the television broadcast run is listed as ending on December 19 with the 12th episode, "Ore no Imōto no Jinsei Sōdan ga Kore de Owaru Wake ga Nai -Good End-."

Update Aniplex producer Atsuhiro Iwakami confirmed on Oreimo's official website that the series was announced as a "15-episode production" at the "Ore no Imōto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai Festival" on Sunday, December 5. He explained there are two versions of episode 12, and that the story will branch in the middle of episode 12. One of the versions, the "Good End," will be the final episode of the television broadcast. The other version of episode 12 will continue the story, which will end at episode 15. While the timeframe and other details of the unaired episodes' streaming remain completely in the air, the staff will strive for a release without long waits like Bakemonogatari's.
