Not to undermine the rest of the Monogatari cast, but Hitagi just towers so tall it's hard for any of them to really get out from under her overwhelming shadow. Yeah she's pretty much one of my favorite characters of all time. I actually just rewatched Bakemonogatari between anime seasons and found I love her even more than before. Like you said, the rest of the cast is entertaining, but Hitagi is simply too amazing and takes the spotlight with every appearance. Still trying to get my friend to watch it; it's on his "to watch list" but it should be on his "watching list" 
I'm on the Hachikuji boat. ^^ Hitagi is awesome but Hachikuji is cute and funny. I like cute and funny.

I don't know how you people have the balls to call Gahara-san by her given name. I certainly don't.

To add substance to the post, mm...
Do you guys use download managers? How do these work? Do they work for sites that require capchas like fs? I assume not since you can't parallel dl. Perhaps the program notifies you when it's finished?

I could recommend stuff for you but I'll have to know what you've already seen. Do you have a MAL I can see?

Calling Hitagi by her given name is indeed intimidating; however, my relationship with her is at a level you guys could never understand. Besides, how else will she know I'm speaking to her and not her father?

Hmm.....
KATANAGATARI?!?!?!?! :D :D :D I'm pretty sure you haven't watched that yet, and I looovvveeeddd it.
Kure-nai had some good action but it wasn't centered around it. So maybe it isn't the best choice. I liked it though.
Bounen no Xam'd. It's mecha, but the action was really good, followed by a really good story. The plot gets pretty slow in the middle when weird shit starts happening, and aside from a female that I hated, I definitely loved this one.
I'll think of some later.....

The only person in the entire series up to the most current book who has called her Hitagi would be her father.
and that's why we have Gahara-san~

Download managers... Just queue up a bunch of files and download. They don't work for sites that require captures. Even if, say, you use megaupload and enter the capture then queue the file, the link expires quite soon so it won't download.
I don't really use DDLs much. I get all of my anime from IRC. It's my preferred method, but torrents are also good. :3
Fair enough, Sououma (sorry, I stuttered).
Now if only you were a cute little girl with Katou Emiri's voice...

Perhaps the program notifies you when it's finished? I use a download manager whenever I ddl from, say, scanlation groups. The one I use, JDownloader, can't decipher captchas (because nobody can). Basically what the program does is it queues downloads for you and processes them one at a time. When the waiting time is up (since most sites make you wait to make you buy premium service or w/e), a captcha is served. JDownloader takes a picture of the captcha and pops up a dialog box on your screen so that you can fill in the correct words. So basically, you don't have to click the links manually, and only have to fill in a captcha every half hour or so.
Of course, this doesn't apply for sites like Megaupload and Mediafire. For Megaupload, parallel downloads are not permitted, but there's no captcha, so JDownloader can just queue up the files and never bother you about them. For Mediafire, parallel downloads are allowed, so download managers work wonders there.

It's my preferred method, but torrents are also good. :3 Megaupload's captchas were easy to decipher. JDownloader, for instance was able to figure out their captchas probably 90% of the time. In any case, Megaupload no longer uses a captcha system, so the point is kinda moot.
Recaptcha is the most widely used system, and it cannot be deciphered easily. There was an algorithm that was released about 2 months ago that saw some success, but it only worked for maybe 9% of the captchas it was served.

Yeah? Well I was the first one to see Gahara-san naked. By club rules we are to wed next Tuesday.

It's understandable, I didn't jump onto the Bakemonogatari wagon during its prime at first. I wish I did, a handful of my friends held a karaoke event and everyone in the room, friends, acquaintances, and strangers, pretty much anyone that was into Bakemonogatari at the time all sang along to Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari and I felt really left out. Now I really do my best to keep up with as many modern series as possible so I don't get left out of the loop again. T.T
It still hurts not being able to join in though, it looked really fun. The applause for everyone at the end was phenomenal.

To understand a lot of the jokes, people would have to be decently knowledgeable of the Meiji restoration period and the historic characters as well as contemporary Japanese pop culture that Gintama parodies. Not to mention that it doesn't go into shounen-mode until important arcs.
I figured with Gintama's nature, it was capable of catering to just about anyone. Thanks for clarifying, I guess it isn't as far-reaching as I figured it to be.

It's not just in this thread that Gintama isn't talked about/overlooked, it also applies to IRL as well. Other than myself, I only know of only two other anime fans that have even heard of Gintama.
