I hope so, unless it means we get like multiple hour-long movies instead of one big one.

If the info is genuine (they supposedly removed it), the first movie is called Tekketsu-hen, and given the famous "tekketsu, reiketsu, nekketsu" description of Shinobu, it would perhaps be reasonable to assume it will be a trilogy of movies. Hopefully not spread over multiple years.

The first ep of Owari was an hour long too, it seems. No idea if it will always be.

I'd imagine it's at least an hour but I don't think it says anywhere.

No one seems to have the video of the Kizu PV up yet but there's this screengrab compilation.

First ep was pretty sweet, but it must have been absolute hell to typeset. Not sure the enigma got developed enough in this shorter anime format, but hopefully it will still be enjoyable.

Solving mysteries in
Bb, F and D.
Owari spoilers/speculation. Anime-only, I have not read the LNs.
Tsukimonogatari was all about the fact that Araragi was inexorably becoming more and more like a vampire by using his vampire strength to heal after torture sessions with Nadeko. The theme of this segment was Araragi's powerless as a human, getting him to confront one of the dark moments of his past and how it affected him.

But which side is Ougi on?

Given how previous monogatari segments have worked, it's possible that Koyomi will go back to normal if he just repudiates the feelings that led to him seeking out vampirehood, like Hanekawa's repudiation of her hatred toward her parents, or Senjougahara's repudiation of her desire to lose her memories. Or at the very least, getting him past those feelings of powerlessness will allow him to give up his vampire powers with a free heart and allow him to remain just as corrupted as he is now.

Alternately, she might be trying to get him to feel his impotence all the more strongly, and get him to say "gently caress it, I can help people as a vamp, sort of, I can't do poo poo as a human".

Obviously, the fact that Ougi is Oshino's niece leads one to assume that she'd be in favor of helping people. But helping could just mean convincing him to leave his half-existence and make up his damned mind to go vamp already.


Should be interesting, even if I have no idea where it goes from here.

So, as I'm watching the series to get to this point
if this was done by anyone but Shinbo(and to that extent, maybe Ikuhara or Enoki), would the series have been as popular? Like, I know it had a fairly big following as a novel but I think it really grew when it became an anime. So is this like Haruhi where it's the combination of visuals(and presentation) plus content that give it life, or would it be as popular even if were animated by, for example, Toei?

THIS popular? No, very unlikely. But the same author's Katanagatari is also very talky and was animated by a different studio / director, and it's highly regarded (if nowhere near selling as well).

I think it's hard to go with this as a what-if, but I am pretty confident that the show would be ruined if it were adapted by Toei

Owarimonogatari 1-2

Hey this is Monogatari!. Same characters, same dialogue, same visuals, same direction. Continuity of experience.

Except...

I have to say it...

This was pretty boring. Looking at the clock from time to time-boring.

It's literally a 45 minute dialog scene between two people talking about something that happened in the past and no parlor trick or gimmick can avoid the inherent problems of something like that. Hell, the entire scene is in the past, as last time we saw these characters Araragi already was clued in her being what she doesn't seem, and this is a flashback to their first meeting, it quits tension to this arc. The dialog itself lacking the typical snappy humor/wit that usually have with some of the girls (like with Shinobu/Kanbaru/Senjou/Mayoi) didn't help. Yes, I know that *monogatari being just pure dialog is at this point not a surprise for anybody but sometimes it can be done in a way that is engaging, and sometimes not. This is the latter.

About what happened: maybe I'm paranoid but the feeling that Ougi gave me when she appeared in the past season, as if every character knew her from before, is that she manipulates people's memory and with that, somehow even reality. And that's what happened in this episode. Nothing of this happened, the classroom as Araragi says didn't exist. She made Araragi "remember" a false episode of his life.
I think some of the stuff that happened with Kanbaru and Nadeko with Ougi were similar, with people doubting what she said, and then shrugging it off and saying "oh, I suppose you are right, I don't remember exactly whatever), now we have seen it directly.
