    What do I do after killing 3 people? Think about my waifu.
    Neichus why would you chase me?
    WHY WOULD I LET CAINE LIVE AFTER KILLING 3 PEOPLE?
    I'm going to regret doing that.


    Wow it was actually good until it became a shitty Fate war and I died for a correct, but shitty, reason.

    At the very least let Caine, who I let go, avenge me.

    >Set on fire with a molotov

    DAMN YOU PANDA.

    >Only 8th place even though I tied for first for kills

    As a bit of history: at the time I watched it I was trying to push my boundaries outward, expanding beyond what had served as my core for getting me interested in anime. Bakemonogatari was not something that was inside my comfort zone at the time, but on the recommendation of many people in this thread I decided it would be a good candidate for getting my feet wetter. I knew going into it that it might not be something I'd love, but I was prepared to try and work around that.

    I detested the series from beginning to end. Normally when I dislike something that much I simply stop watching it and have no hard feelings. But as I mentioned above, I was in the mindset of really wanting to push my boundaries so I went the distance and finished it. I wondered if there were something I was missing. That perhaps it would come together at the end. None of this happened. When it was over I felt like I wanted to scrape my brain with a toothbrush to clean whatever was left out.

    While I wouldn't say it is "the worst anime I have ever watched in my entire life," I dislike it more than any series I have ever finished.
    I didn't like it the first time I tried watching it. I didn't even finish it my first try. Second time around watching it, it just kinda clicked. It's Araragi telling a story. He's a teen boy. It's exaggerated, from how badly he gets his ass whipped to how much of twat Senjougahara is to how many of his female acquaintances want to jump his bones. In my opinion, Bakemonogatari is the second worst installment in the series after Tsukimonogatari.

    Honestly I didn't even like the series all that much until I got halfway through Second Season; Shinobu Time arc was a game-changer. I rewatched Bakemonogatari out of curiosity because Owarimonogatari was coming up and I was planning on checking it out, but didn't want to be out of the loop because I missed something. I noticed so many different things and pieced together so much of the story the second time through that it blew my mind. The first six episodes of Owarimonogatari were probably the best of the series imo (which is ironic because of the subject matter) and one of my favorite stories told in anime period.

    Anyways I could go on about Monogatari because it's a really well-crafted story (regardless of what you think of the presentation or subject matter, the story's solid) and I'm an English major and literature was my forte. I get how people can dislike it but when I read shit like that I can't help but REEEEEEEEEEEEE internally because those people don't even try to like it or understand it, and that's not even on a 2deep4me level.

    Oy, what are those shenanigans? How can a molotov kill me if I don't die when I get killed? :<

    Well I just watched from episode 4 to 25 of SSY in one night. I just wasn't able to stop. I will have to give thoughts when I wake up. It was good though.
