That was pretty much an amazing episode from start to finish. Probably the best episode since Bake 12, which is no small feat. Arararagi showing up the way he did was something

It was hilarious when it became clear that Shinobu had no idea what she was doing and just kept BSing her way through the conversation in more and more spectacular fashion. So, 11 years into the past huh. Still not far back enough to take his mother to the dance sadly.

i300 posted:That was a wonderful episode. I'm really surprised that Araragi reacted the way he did to seeing adult Hachikuji. I guess that is the end of the arc, or is there more? It did say "Continued in the next episode" at the end. I think that's the end of this particular book, but considering we STILL don't know everything happened to Araragi inbetween the start and the end of Neko White, I think the train needs to keep on rolling

Oh right, the episode itself, kinda skipped over that. It pretty much owned, watching Shinobu pour her heart out to... erm, herself was quite a powerful moment, especially if you've watc-- I mean, read Kizu beforehand *glares at Shaft derisively* Araragi trying hard to play it cool when he talked with adult Mayoi was my other favorite part of the episode, for obvious reasons. So yeah, so far the conclusions to both arcs have been or are at least close to the best the series has offered so far.

darkgray posted:The banner was pulled off that website the same day. Back to limbo. I think the speculation is that it could have been ready for fall but Aniplex is going all in on the Madoka movie instead. Either way I'm amused (not really) that Kizu could get really close to being the last thing to get adapted in this series.

Well that happened  Nadeko finally shows up again, and how! I never liked her arc in Bake but this one is off to a great start in comparison. And it seems we're in October now so we STILL won't know what happened between Kabuki and the end of Neko White!

Nadeko is more interesting here than she was in her Bake arc, for what it's worth. Shinobu showing up with the shoryuken and putting a much needed verbal smackdown on her submissive moe moe demeanor while non-chalantly dragging an unconscious Araragi to the living room by his legs made the entire arc up to this point worth it Actually this entire series so far has been a seemingly endless string of Shinobu being awesome and upstaging everyone else.

Nadeko you may have just made up for all that time spent as a vapid pointless moeblob with one scene. I mean Kana Hanazawa just straight went off. The ending was golden and holy poo poo why can't it be next week already?

So, in episode 15/Otori 4 we learn that Nadeko is so good at twisting the situation and playing the victim and garnering sympathy that she's been doing it to herself and, by extension, us, the whole time.

Phobophilia posted:That's a clever trick of the unreliably narrator, she recounts the events in a sympathetic light, but really she's been lying to herself and the audience. I find it's very difficult to pull off the Unreliable Narrator without seeming forced or unfair to the reader, but when it's done right like it is here the results can be amazing

veekie posted:I think that was largely in common. A lot of "Holy poo poo, she talks!" followed by "Man she talks a lot" That shouldn't have been a shock, after all the people who watched Nise obviously would know she talks a lot just based on watching Kizu firs-- Oh wait.  Also the toothbrushing scene was hilarious and I was too busy laughing hysterically to get sufficiently creeped out about it. (See, that happened after the fact  )

Phobophilia posted:I found A Thing. Before Otori I just wanted to see what happened to Araragi before the end of Neko White. Now that we're probably (I think?) going to see that next, I instead just want to see how the Nadeko arc resolves instead. This show man... Also it probably goes without saying, but one should definitely avoid reading comments in this video. Actually, one should probably avoid reading comments on any Monogatari video, regardless of content. Spoilers farther than the eye can see

It's Nisio Isin, this is practically his MO. You have to note that at any given time he is either trolling the reader, pandering to the reader with his perversion, and more often than not both.

I think Delusion Express might be my favorite or close to it, which makes sense cause it's everything Renai Circulation isn't and I didn't like the latter all that much Platinum Disco is pretty great too.

HoneyBoy posted:edit: This got me curious about what Araragi mentioned, apparently he also flew into the sun? I take it that's from Kizu? Kizu spoilers obviously: There's nothing about "flying into the sun", it's more simply that vampires, as per the legend, are hurt and killed by sunlight. When Araragi first became a vampire he ran out into the daylight (not knowing what it would do to him) and started burning up and was unable to save himself, so Shinobu (though I guess at this point she's still Kiss-shot) jumped into the sun herself to pull him to safety. Incidentally, this is sadly yet another episode that loses something if you haven't read Kizu beforehand. Throw another in Shaft's direction.

I'm starting to suspect that Araragi maaaay have a very slight deviancy problem, but maybe it's just me! Gaen next episode makes me giddy. Also that waterfall scene was really pretty.

... Nisioisin, you're a prick.  The timeline jumping going on is getting downright comical. I have no idea how anything is going to resolve. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if Nisio still hadn't connected Koyomi's adventures with the end of Neko White in the currently published books.

I can't stop chuckling at how drawn-out and sappy this is becoming... and now I can't stop making 'she's 10 years older than she looks, I swear!' excuses jokes." Just think of it as the ending to a KEY VN except not terrible.

Raenir Salazar posted:The whole "Nedeko is a dumb airhead" thing really has me all Well keep in mind that she was in such heavy denial of her own jealousy and hate that she subconsciously created a complete distinct personality in her head based on a god she knew little to nothing about on which to deflect the responsibility and consequences of her deceptions. So yeah, she probably really is just a dumb airhead

NISIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RIP Kaiki, in the end you only fell to someone you had no knowledge of. Well that ended with quite a bang. I liked Kaiki in Nise but this arc improved my opinion of him tremendously, especially after the resolution to this arc and all the character insight we get into him.

darkgray posted:An ad for the Owarimonogatari vol 3 novel also has a note saying the Hanamonogatari anime will be airing for 5 weeks starting May 31st. In retrospect with Nisekoi being 20 episodes we should have figured they'd have something to fill in that gap. This fits the bill nicely.
