I wish Kuzimonogatari was animated, because it is where the relationship between Koyomi Araragi and KissShot begins. Having read the novel at Baka-Tsuki I know this and I understand how the ending of Kabukimonogatari relates to this. New anime watches probably didn't understand why KissShot, being so dangerous as to kill off Meme Oshino, Gaen and Keiko (as shown in the anime) which were the three most powerful apparition experts, surrenders so easily to Koyomi after seeing him. He immediately recognized this "love relationship" and dropped the blades. I see the real love story that began in Kizu (after Koyomi saves her twice), as she was downgraded to a 8-year old Shinobu (an unknown apparition in Bakemonogatari) and later opened up to him in Nisemonogatari "Karen Bee", and as a fully developed relationship in "Tsukishi Phoenix".
Nisio Isin wants this story to prolong across all of his stories, but the Aniplex and SHAFT animations reduced their dialogues to promote the entertainment value more. I hope again that the next animation, such as Onimonogatari "Shinobu Time" helps anime viewers understand more about this "love story" until Kizumonogatari comes out. |

Keiko? ... you mean Kagenui... or Kaiki? And please do not expect Onimonogatari to be any kind of this 'love story' you expect it to be. Spoiler for onimonogatari:
Also, cutting the dialogues (or the conversations) is not the best thing to do as that is the essence of Monogatari series. Last edited by shinyaNakagawa; 2013-09-10 at 12:14. |

For lack of a better place to put it, I'll mention this here:
Owarimonogatari episode counts: Ougi Formula: 2 Sodachi Riddle: 2 Sodachi Lost: 3 Shinobu Mail: 6 (7 eps for v1/6 for v2) https://twitter.com/ultimatemegax/st...66638998102016 Note also that Episode 1 is a 1-hour special that contains both episodes of the first arc.
