It may be sad, but it's also amazing and incredibly well done.

That's because it's just a series of short stories pretty much so far and doesn't have a running theme other than the dude just likes to help out.

Well it seem like it should come to some sort of conclusion which somehow combines the overall story, from the "feel" of it.

Or maybe I'm wrong and they're planning on a bunch of episodes without a connection. I would be dissapointed.

that was probably me.

it doesn't really bother me anymore, but technically the songs played during the show ARE pretty difficult. listen to the intro to "my love is a stapler" (0:11 - 0:14) and then rhythm part immediate after (0:20 - 0:35). theres tons of little fills throughout the song that are also deceptively hard to play


obviously, its easy if you just play the notes, but if you try to replicate the scratching and exact rhythm, its actually really hard. kind of silly to think that yui is playing those parts with her mouth open and staring blankly like a retard


"brush and ballpoint pen" from the last concert also has a fairly difficult rhythm part during the verses when mio is singing (easy to play but really hard to make it sound decent), but its much more believable because sawako is playing it

@Ecael, should I assume you read the Bakemonogatari novels in Japanese? I looked around a bit for translations, but could find none.

@PH, he made at least one other film, I believe. "The Place Promised in Our Early Days" was also pretty amazing. O_O (Of course, this is the opinion of someone who is either bad at understanding things, over-analyzes, or both. -_-)

PH, think of it from another perspective, if we get more of that often we'd be bored pretty damned fast

aznman, yeah, I read it raw. I believe baka-tsuki has a few chapters of kizumonogatari up, but nothing for bakemonogatari. Considering I think there was only one translator doubling as editor, it can take a while.

As for needless, you mean we have something other than the ED to stare at? That every episode isn't just the pretense to give us the ED with!?

Yeah, I watched After Story as well. The series was so good as a whole, that I'm seriously thinking about looking into the visual novel when I have some free time.

I've managed to dig out the Visual Novel and english translation from the internet, and I have to say, IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!! No really, lots of stuff that wasn't in the anime, more hilarious lines involving Sunohara being beaten up and much more. And they have the gym storage room scene for more characters XD. Also, try to find every character's route before doing Fuko's and Nagisa's. Do Nagisa's last. There's also a plot not in the anime following a guy named Hiiragi Kappei. That's good too. All in all, it is great.

Be sure to get the visual novel for School Days too. Packed with all sorts of goodies.

Random lurking: I'm enjoying my way through Zombie Loan right now. It's kind of relaxing after throwing things at the screen at the end of Gantz. FMA and Hellsing are next on my list.
