I don't really care for the story much, but Shaft and Shinbo make every episode a pretty entertaining watch.

How many different girls are supposed to show up anyway? The show's only had two this whole time, and there's not many episodes left.

The show is only half way over, so.

Wait, is this 25 episodes? Did they pre-plan another season? I just assumed it was 1 cour, and that's what ANN has as well.

e: Oh, ok. I was just looking at the main page for the show, not the news. 20 episodes is an odd number though.

The shaft head tilt is great.

There had better be at least one in every SHAFT show till the end of time.

I was more amused by Raku's utter confusion at SHAFT Architecture™

It's completely different in the manga, isn't it?

e: Just took a look in the manga, and that's a pretty normal looking school compared to the SHAFT version. I like to think that they've spent so much time with the abstractness of -monogatari that they've forgotten how to draw things normally.

Goddamn, the faces this episode. Anyone who's watching the show and has read the manga, are the faces anywhere near as ridiculous as in the show?

Also, is the new girl this Marika everyone was talking about?

This episode stepped it up so much that I almost feel like I'm watching a different show entirely.

I think I know why you guys like Marika now.

Honestly, I don't like Marika as much as you guys are assuming, but what I really like about her character is how she changes the dynamic of the whole cast. Her appearance made everything feel fresh and new despite having mostly the same elements. The one thing I do love about her personally is she knows exactly how to rile up a shitstorm, and it owns.

I'm just glad everyone knows the situation now. It would have really annoyed me if he never bothered to tell them.

That whole episode owned, even if the story itself was pretty generic.

Pretty awesome cameo in this week's episode.



I forgot what they were talking about here because I was too busy ogling that "sandcastle".

Wow, that was quite the episode, definitely a step up from the standard, drama-wise.

The fact that I'm still reading this generic harem upsets me.

Its a generic harem rom com, but it never pretends to be otherwise and goes whole hog in every way it can. Ill take it.
