It depends on what kind of quality you are looking for, I mean, in the end, the majority is pretty bad. So even though say, Index, is overall crap, that author still managed to keep Misaka in one piece through almost 30 vols by now. Sadly IS author can't even manage to do that. | ||

Well it's not like most LNs are master works of literature lol, really good series are probably the exception rather than the rule. Although there's a lot of stuff in between that's not a bad read to pass the time. Ninjaed :s. | ||

For once they just took the source and did it word by word instead of add in their own ideas. Surprise, it turned out well. Geez is it so hard PA.

It is hard to ask guys to care about a fujoshi, she didn't do much in bake or nise, then her S2 book gets axed because it is all spoilers. Even the book itself was not received well because a serious Kanbaru and her musings is actually a pain in the ass to read and hardly felt like a book from the monogatari series. So yeah, no sex appeal, no waifu qualities, no appearances. Kanbaru gets screwed. Poor monkey.

I don't get the love for Nadeko personally, but I have yet to finish anything after Nise so maybe she does something that makes her more than just whatever? Also I like Kanbaru's VA more than Nadeko's...so yeah. | ||

She has done enough with her limited screen time to at the very least be better then Snake. (Though I just started the Snake arc in S2....Fucking Slow ass hulu). | ||

Also I like Kanbaru's VA more than Nadeko's...so yeah. In Otori she finally stops being useless, before that still jailbait. Sawashiro Miyuki is good but within Bake I don't really think there is that much of a difference between her performance and Hanakana's. In the grand scheme of things, Kanbaru gets screwed the most by source and adaptation. | ||

That alone is enough to make her better than Kanbaru, and well can't not like Nadeko's VA. I don't think anyone likes Nadeko though. I just disagree with people hating her. | ||

Yeah Hana is basically the epilogue of the series and a lot of people really disliked the source. On October 25 2013 23:54 Slaughter wrote: I'm surprised no one has tried to do a manga adaptation of the series, or maybe the author doesn't allow it. He allowed vol 1 of ningen series to get manga, but that was also the series most easily adapted in manga format.

Not saying it has to be Naruto/One Piece/KnK kind of thing but the Monogatari style of putting so much emphasis on the dialogues really doesn't fit manga at all imo. Medaka did it fine...when we ignore most of the characters for being annoying. | ||

Maybe if you only read Shounen but there's plenty of dialogue-driven and character focused manga out there. | ||

You should try reading Wagatsuma-san, almost entirely dialogue/visual gags (takes some getting used to but it's grown on me). | ||
