[Anime] Monogatari Series Second Season

Those facial animations.

I hnnnnnnnnng at the part when Black Hanekawa was getting pet and she said that she always wanted that to be pet. That's what you're supposed to do with a cat girl, folks take note. I like the zebra hair look. Araragi FINALLY took a step up in badass in the anime...but how? Will the next arc tell how he's battered and obtained that sword?

It's the same sword he used on Tsubasa. Which he got from Shinobu.

We finally get to see Araragi win a fight in a series, and that scene when he pet Hanekawa was cute.

Great episode. It was nice to see Araragi not get his ass kicked for once. I want to know what he was doing during this arc.

Good episode. Good arc. It's going to be hard to do anything with Tsubasa as the main focus again though since this arc wrapped up pretty much all of her problems. Araragi finally did something that didn't involve his ass getting kicked... likely because it was violently kicked around earlier.

Finally some real closure on Hanekawa and Araragi's relationship, they pretty much secured their feelings in the previous episodes but thankfully they confronted each other quickly resulting in that heart-wrenching dere moment with Hanekawa...quickly followed by her crying. THIS HATRED UPON WHOM DO I VENT IT UPON?!

Senjougahara is a light sleeper right? I highly doubt she missed the sound of a teenage cat girl hitting railroad tracks while screaming at the top of her lungs, so that means she possibly also saw Araragi and Hanekawa's resolution. I am not convinced by the slide of her sleeping before the two sisters fight or the aftermath.

I care less about the implications of time paradoxes and more for seeing a loli Senjougahara and Hanekawa.

It was so boring I had to get jealous over watching Koyomi carry Shinobu around like that just to stay awake. I wasn't even remotely interested in the younger Hanekawa and certainly didn't pause the video to laugh after Shinobu took a book to the face. The school uniform wearing Shinobu was least interesting of all. Can't Nishio make a better reason to wear a school uniform? Hachikuji's snail panties were not worth looking at even once, or 100 times. If things go on like this I may just drop the series and find something less boring to watch. 0/10. Not looking forward to the next episode.

You know I bet if every school crossing sign said "Do not run over, will cause end of the world" there would be less car accidents.

Older Mayoi will be a badass, calling it.

My penis

I hope Hitagi has long hair again now when the world has changed.

Mayoi's panties

Damn no future Mayoi. But hey Zambies! Better restore the coefficient to 1.048596%.

Couldn't Araragi just let Shinobu drain enough blood to time-travel? Of course she would probably have to revert to her mature form to compensate for the lack of energy but it's better than HoTD: Loli edition (well maybe that wouldn't be so bad).

HoTD: Loli edition would be better than plain HoTD.

Even though this is Hachikuji's novel, its more Shinobu than I originally thought it was going to be. This along with Kanbaru's 2nd story will culminate in the Shinobu-time story, if I remember correctly.

I'm not complaining about having more Shinobu, its only making it clearer to the world that shes the best girl in the series. Her genuine apology was really heart-warming. Her scream at being surprised was adorable too. Its not exactly a bad thing that they are alone together at the end of the world. It was going to play out this way regardless of time-travel. Somewhere between flying over the city and watching fireworks (which looked awesome) I would have considered confessing to Shinobu to see how she would react. Since the vampire-zombies were made by Shinobu shouldn't she be able to control or command them to some degree?

[nostalgic intensifies]

This made me sad on the inside. Well, at least she found peace.

Goddamnit Araragi when a heroine that used to be a loli grows ginormous boobs and invites you to her house after saying she's lonely that is a flag that ends with a "special" CG. Of course that's the route where Shinobu, Senjougahara, Hanekawa, Kanbaru and Sengoku mutilate you but the CG gallery needs 100%'ng!

Finally get to mince words with Kiss-Shot.I was looking forward to the bloodthirsty madness that Kiss-shot was hyped up to be but seeing the absolutely superb writing that went behind her last moments were completely worth it.
