I understand it's monogatari but that was too much, especially considering Gaen a shit.

Faggot
Owari started so nicely, but the abrupt and stupid end of sodachi arc and shinobu mail ruined it. God, it looks so bad comparing it to bake and nise (especially shinobu and her awkward mouth)
the fuck was that at the end?
did the first servant reincarnate into araragi or something?
>>134082936
RRRG should be 17 or 18, it is probably just a coincidence that the guy came back 15 years ago.
>>134082847
For Owari 1 ending, "mystery" aside, I just wanted it to not imply that Sodachi situation was somehow easily solved. Maybe it could have had the "you need to want happiness" discourse from episode 5 as the conclusion instead.
I enjoyed this episode though, though they reused scenes a lot.
>>134083222
Yeah, I found it absurd how she "got through" the fact that she had her own mothers corpse for such long time.

Everything is happening so fast.
>>134083443
She hated her mother since she was a kid, why would she care about her corpse?
>>134083503
Even if you hate your mother, a 17 years old girl should be affected somehow if she discovered the truth,
not just "oh ok, my mother was dead all this time, I was denying it untill now, I'll be happy from now on, thank you and goodbye araragi"
That didn't make any sense
Didn't Shinobu start to fade out of existence just by hanging out in Antarctica?
So how... did this guy's suicide fail?
>>134083634
>That didn't make any sense
Made perfect sense to me since Oikura is a sociopath.
>>134083634
That was what I complained above, but it might have just been Araragi's unreliable narration. That or maybe Nisio or Shaft wasn't sure they would continue Monogatari after final season so he felt the need to give her an implied "good ending".
Regardless, having something less important in the last episode than in the previous one make it seem like that was a big deal for Sodachi, while it was just something for the three other characters to do.
So why was Shinobu not in Koyomis shadow?
Any lewd in this episode?
Can anyone explain the ending? What did she mean by the ashes scattering to that town 15 years ago and then you promptly see Araragi crying as a baby?
>>134084049
Basically his ashes going to that town sparked all the apparition shit going on around town
>>134083634
She always knew the truth, but had been lying to herself.
>>134083634
Before complaining about something not making sense, try understanding what actually happened instead of making it up. There was nothing about her becoming happy. We don't even know if she thanked Araragi.
>>134083846
I'm seconding this question. Owari seemed like they skipped some time and events inbetween.

The void severed their link.
Why the fuck does Gaen always take swipes at Oshino? He is a cool uncle who protects the Araragi and saved the lives of the girls by giving them instructions. I mean Gaen is really coming off as a bitch.
Another note would be I wish more info would be dumped on who Oshino is and how he grew up to be who he is today.
Timeline for lost cows.
>>134084355
Agree. This is how every episode goes.
Flashback from past episode
Talking with characters having not moving showing their eyes or head only
Static
Girl talks about the situation explaining it to
Mini fight happens here or near the end of the episode.
Araragi by showing slow mo of her arms or head twitching.
Snap. Fan service or detailing a feature on their body.
Episode goes back and forth with flashbacks.
Girl reveals something very important.
Sprinkle in some wtf backgrounds and no one else in the episodes besides those characters.
Rinse, lather repeat.

Something about her is not right in the head. I mean, child abuse does cause mental problems, so her not caring about "hey, I fed my mom's corpse without realizing she was dead" is logical. Either that or she's so broken it doesn't shock her anymore.
>>134084517
You forgot the genius dialogue:
>"B-but it doesnt make sense"
>"Well, if you think about it, isnt that why it makes sense?"
>"Yes you're right"
>why did Tsukihi get replaced with a phoenix before Kiss Shot got there?
>why did Kiss Shot go there in the first place?
apparition man drifted to shrine 15 years ago becauseit was his home village
Tsukihi becomes the phoenix apparition a year later and we dont know of any earlier apparition incidents.
Kiss Shot is a beta bitch and gets drawn there so she can fuck her husbando.
I like it.

No. There would be something wrong with you made it to Owari and disliked them.

>>134084355
It really is this pretty much, it's such a joke people call it high concept and masterpiece tier material. It's also just gone on what like 8 installments now though you've seen the number of advocates for it really drop off to pretty much only a select few idiots mostly operating out of MAL. Maybe enough people are just finally getting tired of it growing out of it as it really hasn't changed or evolved much since 2009. It's very teen pervert oriented as well really.
>>134084517
I directly blame Monogatari for getting 2010s anime off on a really bad track with its hit status. Now you have even more aimless droning fanservice series trying to ape it's stylization and tons of cost cutting. It's not the sole reason but IMO a big one so many late night anime are so fucking boring and full of shitty charters and ideas now and a template for how to please enough idiots while keeping costs and overall effort low. The fact that it's one of the most successful shows ever on Blu-ray just goes to show how far gone this media and it's current target audience has gone.
>>134084517
It's super easy to make, super profitable and an enlightening example of why anime and it's target audience is kind of extra shitty nowadays and few in the mainstream take it or them seriously. I remember back in the early 2000's when stuff like Bebop and Big O were airing on cartoon network, Pokémon and Yugioh was exploding among children and it almost seemed like anime had a shot at mainstream status finally after all these years and then ADV and the licensing market folded only to get replaced by Aniplex and their shitty otaku bait stuff priced way out of market range that could never in a million years hope to make it to TV aside from SAO. It's pretty much all up to Attack on Titan these days.
>>134088652
This isn't bad though. It could be better, but it's still not bad.
>>134085891
Why is this droning repetitious dialogue so popular and praised nowadays. Like Isin is largely seen as a genius dialogue writer by this series fans and yet I've only ever been able to come to the same conclusion people have with this episode that a lot of it is just waste to fill time. I swear this series fans have to be like this most gullible people ever to not only tolerate this but equate it with genius and make it into a best seller. I'd call it the Twilight of anime but it doesn't seem like quite the same thing.
>>134088342http://exhentai.org/s/44779de6b0/683062-227
>>134088985
It's also a pretty big fuck you to shows that actually try that it'd always considered one of the best things in any given season and a per rental chart topper. No wonder anime is in the shit hole it's in with stuff like Monogatari and Fate at the top of the pack.
>>134085239
I guarantee you Monogatari fans gave this segment a standing ovation after its done and are praising the seiyuu somewhere. To me it's like most of the cast hates being in this show though. Everyone always sounds so bored dispassionate and droning in their dialogues. Even Hayamin who always seems to be engaged in any role sounded like she'd been lobotomize playing the Doll character last week
So, what exactly is Araragi? I need a summary, that was too much for my brain.

How long before all Aniplex anime are homogenized to imitate the droning dispassionate, repetitious and convoluted pseudo-philosophical muttering writing styles of NisioIsin, Gen Urobuchi and Nasu. You can tell those are their absolute favorite writers in the world and that their fans will eat up anything they write or is written like their styles and I swear they're trying to make a formula out of it if God forbid they can't always get them to write directly or don't want to pay them if they ask too much. It's really noticeable in stuff like Saekano and this season's Subete Ga F Ni Naru.

There were much more useless talks, when they talked about sex, panties, feet and whatnot in this arc already, but if something that's actually relevant to the story goes on for longer than 5 minutes you're complaining about it? If you have such a short attention span go back to shonen shit or something
let's be cereal, would the exposition have been so poorly received if it was coming from someone else? Gaen's hardly significant enough for people to remember what she does other than wear a style that's been dead for 10 years.
>>134091128

If it was someone else, then even with the same content it would have a different presentation, so maybe.
This episode is going to do wonders to my Gaen folder.
Oh god that first 2 minutes was probably the best intro to an episode yet.
Seeing Shinobu eating that thing was soo cute lol. Oh god ARARARARAGI UR SO LUCKY!!! TO GET TO SEE SHINOBU UPSKIRT!!!!! Damn Ararargi laughing to recreate that scene in earlier episodes was a good treat. I started laughing along for a while.
I love how whenever we see Gaen the sky is always in that color. There was important dialog being held at the moment. Also a lot of talks about the past. Makes me realize that having Kizu next year was the perfect place. W.e you wanna speculate about Shaft I think it was more intentional than anything. The PV for kizu served enough info for this make sense visually.
Tbh this was a very well directed episode and the art and animation looks extremely well. Probably my fav in the season because it drops so many clues and hints to whats to come and what has happened. As she said it was very vague but its obvious that it will all connect in the end of the arc. The ending scene was done beautifully as well.
>>134091224
Of course not. People like the character interactions so when it happens to be presented with the worst character in the series everyone shitposts about it.
>>134091224
some like Gaen some dont, but it was somewhat budget animation ep so they repeated same info which isnt good
>>134091298
Come on, not the "hurr durr people only watch Monogatari for the cute girls" meme.

>>134091121
Not every arc has 6 episodes idiot.
Crab, exposition at the end of 1/start of 2
Snail backstory on snail in the middle of 2
Monkey back end of 2/ start of 3
Only cat had the exposition at the start.
Bee end of 4/start of 5
Like fuck I don't know how this is surprising.
>>134091362
I beg you please stop posting shit from MAL.

I'm not saying that they are useless, I'm saying that talking about them is more useless than talking about the actual story

Spotted delusional snakefag.
>>134091192
Bat had made a servant before araragi 400 years ago who then tried to kill himself. It didnt work because he is a vampire, he kept on trying for a while and 15 years from now he came to araragis town. Fuck you, you is dumb :^)
>>134091370
>but it was somewhat budget animation ep so they repeated same info which isnt good
This is the big part. A lot of it was even information already stated before. There were very few relevant sentences that actually mattered. It was like watching a recap episode with Gaen, the shittiest person to ever narrate.
If you don't like exposition and compelling dialogue take your Plebian tastes and short attention span elsewhere and go watch shonen action Naruto or Bleach and talk about them on Reddit.
Why do people hate Gaen? Do strong independent women scare you?
>>134091497
>Gaen, the shittiest person to ever narrate
Confirmed for not watching Otorimonogatari.
Is this show actually good beyond girls? It would be my first anime, and I like paranormal stuff, but it looks like it will turn into a haram, which sounds boring and not good. I can watch other animes but it is hard to find them and if this one is good then I do want to watch it.
>>134091507
>compelling dialogue
Yeah it sure was interesting and compelling listening to Gaen repeat herself and talk in circles for half an episode.
I l I'm confused - this episode only felt like it was 10 minutes long.
>>134091565
People hate Gaen because they can't enjoy watching someone be right.
They're going to rage when they animate Koyomi Dead and Gaen brings the thunder and tellsKiss-shotto nut up or shut up.
>>134091362
Stop pasting MAL fucking forums
>>134091598
I think u should watch naruto
>>134091565
Too smug, only smugness gets old.

Smug never gets old. If it did, batfags wouldn't be a thing.
>>134091598
>It would be my first anime
>>134091662
I don't want to watch naruto though, I've only heard bad things. I'd like to watch this, but only if I get the a-okay from someone, because I don't want to waste my time. Is it just a haram shit thing?
>>134091725
We all have to start somewhere
>>134082172
if you didn't like this episode you have shit taste, sorry. Gaen's monologue was the first time some of the foundational problems in the background have been brought to the foreground.
>>134091598
>haram
>>134091734
>>134091598
Watch boku no pico instead, this is just haremshit
>>134091755
Yeah that is when it is all the girls hop up on one guys dick, yea? That seems kind of boring. I'm not talking about muslims
>>134091734
Yes it's full on haram and fanservice every episode.
>>134091598
Nigga how do you know you don't like harem if you've never watched anime?
I don't even dislike Gaen, but I do want to see the story advance in a timely manner. having nearly half the episode be Gaen yap about a relatively small topic is pretty brutal. Several episodes during this season have been lots of talking, which is fine, but hopefully that talking is about new stuff, and not just "well yeah he lived and eventually came back here."
>taking the bait
>>134091707
But Bat is not just smug, she has a large expression range.
Gaen only has one setting. Even Ougi managed to show something other than pure smugness.
>>134091607
Actually I was being sarcastic but there are plenty of people, mostly teenagers who can barely string together a coherent sentence, that truly believe this. It say a lot about the target audiences standards that they think Isin is gods unending gift to dialogue.
>>134091769
I'm not so new, I do not want to watch boku no pico.
>>134091786
It is because I know a loser who is my friend and talks about all the different animes he watches, and he always talks about how bad the harams are.
>>134091778
That is a shame. Fanservice sounds fun but haram seems like it will not. Do you know of any other good paranormal animes?
>>134091860
Mars of Destruction is good
>>134091810
This is probably the longest arc of the series to date and it feels like almost nothing has happened. Tons of shows manage to do more in an episode than this is probably going to manage to do in half a cour by the time it's done. They'll probably just leave all the resolution to the last episode like what always happens in Monogatari and people will eat it up and praise the genius of the staff yet again. It's like KEY writing, it cannot fail with it's target audience, all it has to do is exist and they'll just sing the same praises every episode, every arc and every season about how only Monogatari can be this compelling with just dialogue because ????
I'm seriously starting to think the Monogatari fanbase that posts online are just AI scripts linked to a handful of accounts.
>>134091824
But Gaen has multiple levels of smug. She hasn't even gone into MAXIMUM OVERSMUG yet.
She also has condescending, patronizing and insulting.
She is effectively the most honest person in this entire series.
I think Gaen would be sorta in a rough position if she showed too much kindness anyway. With the position she holds within the world, she needs people to fear the power she holds since people can mistake kindness for weakness and I doubt we'd ever see Gaen asking Yozuru to drop a guy off a building to get a point across.
gaen is a dried up whore
>>134091810
> Gaen yap about a relatively small topic is pretty brutal

>>134091926
yet on google it says it is very bad. don't be a faggot here, I just want to watch a good anime.
Shinobu arcs are so shit
>>134091967
Of which in the 9 minutes was probably only addressed in the last 3 minutes.
>>134092004
>>134092021
'No'
I want Ougi to put her sleeves close to my erect dick.
Then, I want her sleeves to slowly descend over my erect manhood so that I can feel her soft, pale hand stroke my dick as I ejaculate all over the insides of her sleeves.
I don't want to see her hands though.
>>134091850
Oh okay, sorry for being autistic. But yeah, people in this thread think that because monogatari revolves around dialogue it's okay for it to be done poorly. It's an LN adaptation so I already know not to expect much, but it's pretty funny how people think every sentence must be some literary achievement of storytelling solely because it's monogatari and written by Isin.
>>134092053
Everything she said was relevant and necessary for the import the last three minutes had. If you can't deal with people talking for a long time drop the show; it says nothing about the quality of the show that when it spends a long time talking about important, plot-relevant, well-written and directed things, you find it boring because there's no action happening.
>>134091962
>dried up whore
an attractive and still youthful-looking dried up whoreI'd happily take it
>>134092021
How can anyone not like shinobu time?
So like.................................... why are people still watching *gatari when Shomin Sample exists?
>>134092075
These are all bad on google. Sorry I'm a little late to your super secret cool anime club faggot
>>134092103
I find it boring because the majority of the stuff is already touched on, or known to the audience. It could easily be said in a third of the time; and while I do generally enjoy Monogatari arcs, most of this season has been relatively the episode-to-episode, with large swathes of monologues about things you already know.
>>134091948
I don't see that anon. I see her stuck on maximum oversmug since day one.
I don't even know how she could get more smug
>>134091734
>never watched anime before
>posts on /a/
>>134092103
>Everything she said was relevant and necessary for the import the last three minutes had
No it wasn't. It was literally a recap of a bunch of stuff the viewer already knew, plus an additional piece of new information thrown in.
>>134092127
That was great at the parts were there was no shinobu.
When she was on screen it was 80% backstory monologue.
>>134092208
probably because it isn't the real list.
Kashimashi is only so/so.
>>134092208
kuttsukiboshi is good though
>>134092281
yeah I came here because I want to watch anime because I've heard good things.
>>134092306
What is the best anime then? in your opinion
>>134092352
>What is the best anime then?
Natsuyasumi
>>134092237
Gaen finds a way. The fact she outsmugs Shinobu is an example of that.
>>134092451
do you know any that are not porno animes but are grand adventures?
>>134092506
Ai no Kusabi
>>134092451
Seconding this, I think it's even better than boku no pico
>>134092352
that's really hard to say, would depend entirely on your tastes. People can hate things the majority of /a/ thinks are fantastic, and they're not wrong.
I really liked Gatchaman: Crowds, Psycho-Pass, Junketsu no Maria, Fate/Zero, and tons of other anime. But we're not the same person, so my tastes: meaningless.
>>134092352
ok faggot go watch Code Geass, Death Note, Gintama and GTOThose are actually among my favorites
>>134092506
Kuroinu: Kedakaki Seijo wa Hakudaku ni Somaru It's about medieval warfare.
>>134092127
Terrible infodump. Snail manages to somewhat save it but it's still shit.
>>134092164
At this point I swear its remaining audience outside Japanese otaku doesnt want to admit they've wasted five years of their life following a hollow style over substance series that probably could have covered all its story relevant material in 2 maybe even one cour. Overall this is the first time I've seen where there seems to be a growing concensus that its worn out its welcome and could stand to end. Its brining little new to the table, its not getting any new fans and seems to just exist to milk Blu-Ray sales off of lonely otaku and be cheap and easy to make. I remember back when Bake aired and it was kind of unique and everyone just seemed to rave about it but now I barely see anybody talking about it and only the idiot shitposters seem to still think its anything special but dont even talk about or discuss it like they used to with Bake. Its like everyone with half a brain already realized what it actually is a low effort low budget cash cow.
>>134092537

>>134092555
And go to Reddit . You're doing the bit wrong without the stinger
>>134092633
some of these actually look pretty good, and don't have shit reviews
>>134092686

Yeah like ANN giving Kek la Kek 5/5
>>134092604
Where are you getting these?
>>134092297
If Haruhi could turn a profit with Endless Eight why not Monogatari. A fool and their money are soon parted and there's lots of those ready and willing in the anime community
>>134092561
seconded, even a cute loli
>>134092633
>Badmouthing any of the anime I listed
The second guy, sure. Death Note is self-masturbatory and stupid, but the first arc isn't terrible.
Code Geass is a fun show.
>>134092686
Watch them if they interest you, don't if they don't.
>no Kanbaru_buttwiggle.gif
Cool Monogatari thread guys. Where the mods at
Most anime is shit and you have to browse trough so much crap to find anything good. So giving recs to someone who doesnt know what he likes is pointless.
>>134092352
>yeah I came here because I want to watch anime
You can only post on /a/ if you've seen at least 600 series.
>>134092784

Holy fuck you utter newfag, get the fuck back to reddit.
/a/ is dead.
>>134092103
>This defense
>Every time
It basically just presumes that Monogatari can never have wasteful dialogue though if that's the case why is the charge coming up more and more especially this season where I even see long time fans feeling unsatisfied. The Monogatari fanbase is kind of fucked I've noticed and seems to want to drive away or drown out anyone that will tell them the things they dont want to hear or frankly admit
>>134092816
Did that add in that sweet HUD mod yet where you could tell how many -fags are in any given thread?

I'm doing more research to weed out bad taste, don't worry <3
>>134092942
Asking for recommendations outside of /r/ is a bannable offense. You newfags need to assimilate and shut the fuck up, or go back to the shit hole you came from.
>>134092999
its just a meme at this point
>>134092604
Now that Hitagi and Kaiki are irrelevant it's up to Ougi to keep things interesting. When those three aren't present things turn to shit like this arc.

okay, quick question, do you think I should watch code geass subbed or dubbed? I've been told you should always watch subbed, but I also heard dubbed can be good from other sources, so I'm just wondering if I could get advice from the lord of anime?
>>134093019
>This is why the board and site have gone to shit
You should explain to me why giving some advice to newfags shits all the board up
I can assure you newfags aren't the ones creating waifu wars, fucking around with maymays, or shitposting in general if that's what you're talking about
>>134092837
The first lesson to getting into anime is don't listen to what anime fans have to recommend on the internet. I'm kind of lucky cause I got into it before the fanbase got overrun with LN/VN waifu otaku that worship half baked writers and concepts. I could never get into it nowadays for the first time if I was going based off of what people said were the best shows cause I'd just assume it was all horny teen oriented drivel with the odd action scene and convoluted droning and largely nonsensical dialogues. There's still some good stuff out there but its mostly OVAs or stuff not being followed by internet fans that are demonstrably socially stunted from growing up on it and a diet of crap like this franchise. My suggestion would be look for shows with low viewer counts and middling/few reviews. It usually means the idiot internet fanbase aren't paying attention to them and theyre probably decent because they lack the usual stupid shit LN style anime fall back on.
>>134093059
But you're wrong, you fucking retard.
Let's go over the rules.
Global Rule 16: All request threads belong on /r/ unless otherwise noted.
So, nothing violated there.
Let's move onto /a/ rules, then?
Pic related, oddly enough I don't see anything in there outlawing asking for recommendations...
So perhaps you should fuck off back to rebbit you fucking retard.
>>134093249

You retards aren't even talking about anime anymore
