Aight so Bakemonogatari
Story - 8
Story is very simple but very good, Its basically Koyomi Araragi ,A half vampire, helping out Girls from apparations that they are involve with it. At paper it sounds very simple but the way they approuched this is so good and creative and everyone has their own intresting backstories. Oh and its a Harem btw.
Art - 10
The art is legit OUTSTANDING (In my opinion) The headtilts, the french theatre inspirations, the constant "blackscreens" I LOVE THEM ALL. It created an experince of art that I have not yet seen from other animes and its funny that it works, Bakemonogatari has to
...
rely on the art since it is very dialouge heavy and the animators would get to do whatever they want to do, There were a lot of references, were times where they would reference JOJO (IN 2012 I MIND YOU) FMA reference, Even an Internet meme, It was really ahead of its time in that aspect, The animation too was outstanding, there was that one scene where the intestines look like party confeties or whatever you call it, I admire the animators for pulling this off
Sound - 9
Sound was great, The OPs, Bakemonogatari has 5 Ops including the famous Green hair anime girl song "Renai circulation" as Op 4 although my personal favourite was staple stable/Op 1. The EDs are good too altought i dont listen to them as often. The OST's tho, they are freakin good and can set the mood, Sutekki mepo is a very fitting jazz like backround music for two people talking (Which Bakemonogatari does a lot). Senjougahara tore just feels different when I first heard it, The raw emotion of sadness, It struck me so hard that I had to learn it on the piano.
Characters - 10
The Characters tho, I love them all. Hitagi Senjougahara, One of the most unique anime girls that I have ever seen and I personally like the most, was a legit hands-down one of my favorite characters ever, not just in anime. Every time she is at the screen I frkin die and her interactions with Araragi is frking Gold. She claims herself as a tsundere but shes frkin straight forward af and she is a mix of Tsundere-Yandere-Kuudere which is AMAZING, Her design with the school supplies and everything is hella creative. She also had an intresting dark backstory that made her who she is which itself was very good. Mayoi Hachikuji, I love her character, She is a 22 yo Loli that feels like the onii chan sometimes, She does got sexually harassed sometimes but alot by Araragi which I dont think she hates which is weird but it is bakemonogatari. Her design is really cute and she resembles her apparation.
Suruga Kanbaru, She is Senjougahara's-Lesbian-tomboy-energetic-gay kohai that is very gay for senjougahara that she personally wanna get rid of Araragi, Her design really reflects her tomboyish aspects and she plays basketball which is epicc. I think that unlike others, this apparation problem was started by her and her choices. Nadeko Sengoku, Bruh Nadeko is just hell cute that I died from her cuteness, She is that Imoutto character as she displays the quirk of being clingy to Araragi as well as calling "Koyomi Onee-chan". Her bangs and her overall outfit is hella iconic and cute, She treats her bangs more important than her panties sometimes which you would get in later series. Tsubasa Hanekawa, Glasses girl that can challenge the sun on a contest which indicates "Who is hotter". Hanekawa is intresting as she close herself from others and kinda felt like shes on her own world, Black Hanekawa is Hot and scary, can be cute sometimes as well, I cant stop repeating the tounge twister that she siad:"Nyanyame nyanyaju nyanyado no nyarabi de nyakunyaku inyanyaku nyanyahan nyanya-dai nyanyaku nyarabete nyagannyagame" which is hella cute which u can see all the
"Nya-" which is hella cute especially the way she looks while doing it. Man I need a life. Shinobu Oshino, She isnt explored here much but she is a very intresting character later on.
Enjoyment - 10
I enjoyed this too much, I binge watched 15 of the episodes straight with no breaks because I enjoy it that much
Overall - 10
I think its personally a 10 for me because it is something that I want from an anime series, Its not for everyone tho but I personally recomend you watch this Heavy dialouge creative masterpiece
