In what order should I watch the Monogatari series if I've only ever seen Bakemonogatari S1?

In what order should I watch the Monogatari series if I've only ever seen Bakemonogatari S1?

Release order, this is literally the only way things should be watched.

Novel release order, it's the same as the anime release order only with Kizu before Nise.

Thanks, user, will make a list!

Bake > Nise > Neko > 2nd Season > Hana > Tsuki > Owari p1 > Kizu (movie) > Owari p2

This.

Kizu should be watched before Nise, it was the second book to be released but for one reason or another the anime ended up only releasing last year, but now that it's out there's no reason to watch it that late into the series.

Reverse Order. It becomes a series about a guy who solves mysteries until everyone around him becomes more and more damaged culminating with him becoming a friendless loser who has his blood injected into him by a vampire and the series ends with a panty shot.

Oremonogatari>kizumonogatakari>bakemonogatari>katanamonogatari>owari

Brilliant!!
I feel like newfags CAN start with Kizu though. Or at the very least through Kizu in almost anywhere they want. Also you forgot Koyomimonigatari (at the very least it helps sprinkle in side stories in between the seasons which I liked and helps connect the Owari parts)

Haha, took me a second to realize. Although katanamonogatari is still Nisiosin so, kinda.

I honestly think that now that Kizu is finally done people should watch it after Bake, I mean a whole lot of shit in Nise and Neko will just seem out of nowhere without it.

Bake > Kizu > Nise > Neko > 2nd Season > Hana > Tsuki > Owari p1 > Koyomi > Owari p2
Anyone who tells you anything else is a brainlet.

is correct

I see that you jumped to part 9 already but it is still manageable. Follow the attached watching order starting from katanagatari>koimonogatari>hanamonogatari>etc....

When will Arararagi break up w/ Crab so he can enjoy great monogamy w/ Bat and allows Crab to be Cat's girlfriend?

I find that kizu shouldn't be seen too soon. the suspension is just amazing.
should keep that one for later.
I went with order by release (anime) and am very happy with that.
Sometimes you have to think a bit when exactly something is happening but that isn't too big an issue.

we can only hope!
Cat NTR'ing crab in RRG's own room.

Don't.

Start from Kizumonogatari, watch all 3 movies, and then by release date.

Cat & crab really have feelings for each other. I don't think RRG can do anything about it even if he wants too. Both of them are getting lonely because he is not touching them. In order to fill that hole, they touch each other instead.
I was going to attach the entire bath scene they have but I might be banned for it so just watch the BD version of that scene instead.

Are they still together in Musubi?

Novel release order, so first watch Kizu and then just follow the tv release order.

Kizu is second in the novel order though.

Nigger read the OP.

Literally just go to wikipedia and look at the episode list, it's always in release order.

What's her cup size?

I hated her part in Kizu so much.

that's because you are a faggot.

No it's because Kizu is garbage.

"floweth over" the same as they used to say for Nell Gwynn

The bath scene any different in the BDs than what aired?
It's been a couple years but they just laugh and hug and rub breasts covered in soap together.
I want more Shinobu bath scenes.

Eh, I went back through in production order and piecing how things actually fit together chronologically was a bit of a pain.
I think the monogatari series is one of the few where you might actually be better off watching mostly in chronological order.

Genuinely the most boring character in the show, and the closest the series gets to having a mary sue.

I'm doing a chronological watch now and it would spoil a lot of things if I hadn't already watched it.
First time watchers should always do

Friendly reminder that Araragi is only allowed to make love with Hanekawa.

kys imbecile

H

We can't really tell because they keep on changing the size but one thing is for sure, they are way above the average size. Given the criteria below, let just say she is an "E".
{A} Almost Boobs...
{B} Barely there.
{C} Can't Complain!
{D} Dang!
{DD} Double dang!
{E} Enormous
{F} Fake.
{G} Get a Reduction.
{H} Help me, I've fallen and I can't get up!

That aside, I guess I found a hint/proof that cat really likes meme. This came from crab's own mouth.
>I would prefer you don’t end up like Hanekawa-san, following in Oshino-san’s footsteps out of admiration for him and ending up a demon hunter..
Cat might have told crab some of her secrets. Crab said "out of admiration for him". I knew there was more to it that just wanting to be a nomad like him. She does admire or even likes him.

I want more cuckoldry in my gatari
Crab cucking Ragi, because he deserves it
Ragi cucking Crab (although he already does that)
Bat cucking Ragi because he deserves it
Bee and Bird cucking Ragi
Kaiki cucking Ragi with Crab
Everybody should just chuck the shit out of Ragi desu

>hear all the rumors that crab cucks Araragi with Kaiki in Koi
>he ends up not getting cucked
He can't keep getting away

kizu was
>father walks in

...

because of cat's connection with meme, crab hates him more and is jealous. cat has been looking for him half a year so she can't spend time with cat. she said that he was a bad influence to his angel. crab really wants to have lovey-dovey baths with cat.

>Hana ever before Owari 2
What the FUCK are you doing

>She does admire or even likes him.

No-one likes Oshino. You can admire someone and not like them.
I admire Yozuru for being able to punch out Seishiro but like 50% of her personality is just punch with the occasional SHORYUKEN and shitting on Shinobu for having the mouth of Kiss-shot and the body of a child.

I think all of the specialists are way more interesting characters than Araragi.

What Nisio needs to do is to stop focusing on Araragi and letting the god tier secondary and tertiary casts have some fun.

How about another Kanbaru story that doesn't spoil key plot events? A Crab detective story overseas? A story where Ougi saves Araragi's life without him noticing?

Would watch a whole episode about monkey masturbating to crab. Then monkey takes anger out on snake via vigorous tribadism.

Don't focus on the current specialists, that would be a terrible idea. College years would be fine because it doesn't influence the current versions of them that we see but too much screentime for the specialists ruins their image.

Kanbaru is honestly the perfect protagonist post-Hana. She's the most interconnected to the oddity world for a human and it would be interesting to see how she deals with oddities without the use of the Rainy Devil arm.
She is also known by all the specialists which also means they could show up without it being forced. "Gaen sent me" is literally enough excuse for Oshino and Kanbaru to hang out and discuss why he knew Tooe's name was a region pun like Suruga is in Suruga Monkey even though he had never met her and Kanbaru said Suruga came from Suruga-toi.

...

I just fell in love again

Sounds fantastic.

>Hana not last
>Kizu not after Bake

Cat admires him enough to make crab jealous. That is something. Even Kaiki is against her following meme but cat still insist. The feat she made in finding him is not just about winning again spooky. She wants to see him too. That is probably why she wants to get out of town like him. RRRG already dumped her anyway and she does not like living with her parents. It would be nice if we have a short story which tells exactly why cat wants to follow him.

I have not had any problems so far with this watch order. Hana can be watched at any point after Bake but I did not feel that I missed much by skipping Kizu

>It would be nice if we have a short story which tells exactly why cat wants to follow him.

Him or his footsteps? From how its implied its not that she wants to follow him but the life he lives since it allows her to not be girl she has the expectation to be.
The fact she became a vagrant commie attempting to remove borders is so very Hanekawa. She's taking Oshino's philosophy of balance and being like "I can do this better. I am going to give everyone a better than neutral end" which Oshino fucking hated about her.

Hana spoils Owari 2.

Ok, I am not so far in

>Hana
people who watch hana before owari 2 are just softies who hates seeing their beloved characters die. You could even watch it before koi if you don't want to get hurt seeing kaiki dead.

Those breasts are a crime.

>Oshino fucking hated about her.
love can start from that hate. the more meme pushes her, the more challenging it becomes for cat. i hope we see tsubasa sleeping animated soon. The two of them are there in constant disagreement. i hope cat blushes there. for all we know, cat could be a masochist and likes to be treated like that.

And yet Hana was published in the 2nd season so you're full of shit.

It's just not that simple. Imagine this from Oshino's POV.
You're here just trying to make sure everything is kosher when some Gaen-lite bitch comes along and starts fucking everything up.
Do you know how frustrating that would have to be for someone? He already dealt with Gaen 10 years earlier and now he avoids her like the plague whenever possible, dealing with her reincarnation would just be painful.

i hope nisio will give spooky a sister or a brother by getting bat pregnant again. it would be nice if they will have a blonde one like bat.

they already have lots of rainy devil parts in hana so maybe they could use that as the trigger like last time. it is more potent than just energy draining to get the unknown compound out of the rainy devil.

I don't care about publishing order. Hana does nothing but ruin Owari 2
>Makes all the scenes where it makes you wonder if Araragi will graduate pointless
>Tells you that Araragi is going to live
>Tells you that Ougi is going to live
>Tells you that everyone else is going to live
>removes literally every bit of tension in the entirety of Owari

Hana is a mistake.

>Tells you that everyone else is going to live

I mean just between you and me. I don't think anyone other than arc antagonists like Seishiro, Rouka and Tadatsuru are actual in any danger of dying.

Probably not, but if Hana never happened I would've thought Ougi was fucking gone.

>katanagatari

is that a joke?

>A cute girl sits in front of Araragi
>user thinks Araragi isn't going to save that cute girl.

I mean I appreciate your willingness to suspend logic to enjoy the show but does the niggling voice in the back of your mind not automatically just kick the logic back in?

Agreed. I'm happy the series is still going, but making Araragi the MC again was a mistake.

>dealing with her reincarnation would just be painful.
now i really want cat to tame & break him. that would be something that gaen was not able to do. cat following him around is the first step. if cat will be able to do that, gaen would really be pissed. i bet gaen got envy with cat when she was able to bring meme back to town. i really want to know how cat was able to convince him. i only have bits an pieces of tsubasa sleeping so i don't know how she did it.

Should I buy the series physically to watch it or should I subscribe to Crunchyroll?

Sorta the issue with the series, everyone is Araragi-centric which usually isn't bad but his character has pretty much fully developed at this point.
He needs to move to the background and become a cool motherfucker like the specialists.
His entrance in Neko White and Hanamonogatari are prime examples of how cool he can be if he's not the central character.

Him one-shotting Kako and being the coolest motherfucker in existence at that very moment for Hanekawa really showed.
For a more sombre kind of cool, his ability to accurately take into account all of Kanbaru's issues during their car ride and give her the advice she needed to hear is such a "normal cool"

I don't think Gaen actually cared that Tsubasa brought him back to town. Her entire plan from the start was to just wipe Ougi out as if she was a normal oddity.
It was Hanekawa attempting to make the results better for Araragi that Hanekawa brought to the table.

If you're insistent on doing things legally get the physical copies. CR is horrible.

How bad is CR? The series is just so damn expensive that I'm trying to save all the money I have.

She was the most repeatable girl to me. Compartmentalizing emotions seems like a much more real problem to me than stuff like Kanbaru's jealousy or Nadeko's one-sided feelings.

In terms of service they're okay, but their subs are mediocre and they hardly give any money to the original makers to begin with.

If it comes out as a girl, she might look like her. She needs to have an older form so they will be distinguishable. We might end up with something like this.

that post smells like bait, user
but anyway while aniplex did make some nice BD sets for monogatari, there's still the issue of pirate releases having much better subs, especially for the on screen text. It's something you buy more for the photo cards and booklets than the viewing experience.

Don't, it's a shit series

>Her entire plan from the start was to just wipe Ougi out
that is also one thing that would piss gaen. she wanted ougi dead but rrrg together with cat foiled her plans. cat even bested gaen in koi. cat was the one who set the stage so crab will have no choice but to call kaiki. even though gaen supported kaiki, cat was the one who made it happen. cat was the one who gave kaiki a tip that he himself did not know. that tip helped him condition himself for the worse. gaen does not need to say that she is pissed with her. that goes the same for rrrg.

>tfw no canon shots of adult bat enjoying donuts
that would be fun to see a cake enjoying her pastry with childish enthusiasm

that is nice but a blonde spooky is much better. i don't know who this character is but she has similar eye and hair color as bat. the uniform is like the middle school tsukihi (i think).

opps! i forgot to attach the image.

There is a clear distinction. Shinobu's fluff goes outward her body while the little one there has her fluff going inwards. Even the full form Shinobu there has her fluff going outward. Like mother like daughter. I bet Shinobu is indoctrinating her there with the way of the donuts just by the look on those eyes.

So why the fuck was Araragi and Hanekawa so much better looking than normal in Kizu?

Why did Hanekawa get so much more screentime despite the fact that the movie was about fleshing out Araragi and Shinobu's relationship?

Why did Dramaturgy, Episode, and ESPECIALLY Guillotine Cutter job so hard?

I honestly thought Hanekawa looked like shit in Kizu.

>Why did Dramaturgy, Episode, and ESPECIALLY Guillotine Cutter job so hard?
It's not jobbing if you're fighting someone ridiculously more powerful than you.

only one in the correct order.

Who? Hime-Crab and Araragi?

That's exactly the definition of jobbing, as in it's original meaning as used in professional wrestling, it's being easily beaten by someone precisely to make them look a lot stronger than you.

Yes

They didn't need to make Araragi look stronger, they were like little children fighting a well trained soldier.

Yes.

What are you talking about, did we watch the same movie?

Not at the beginning of the film.

They hype up the three hunters in order to let it sink it how ridiculously powerful Araragi and Kiss Shot were when they beat them. That's what job means.

I'm kinda glad for that but I'm also a bit dissapointed, I always thought they'd end up breaking up to accentuate the fact that deep down they're just a pretty normal couple and normal couples normally break up, but that was just the impression I got of them.

Not that user but the movie doesn't explain that Araragi's base stats put him leagues above the hunters.

Drama's regen for example doesn't insta-heal the shotput damage while Araragi can lose limbs and instaheal them. The small arm thing didn't happen in the books, he regened immediately.

Episode is a hard counter to Vampires and by his own wording said that if the fight had kept up longer before he got sanded and choked that he would have been too tired to actually continue fighting.

Cutter is just a normal human and can't be expected to 1 v 1 a Vampire of Araragi's level so he uses Hanekawa.

That is Himiko Toga. I can really see the resemblance. They probably are related Also, they are both crazy.
