Monogatari Series: Second Season

The order the author originally wrote the series in, preferred by most Monogatari fans. The most recommended order for first time anime watchers.

Highly recommended to watch the Blu-ray version as a lot of animation decisions are changed due to financial restraints in the TV version.

Semi-Airing Order by YoshePlays: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/708
Semi-Chronological Order by YoshePlays: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/716

This order is the result of Shaft's production delays so it's not the most popular order, but it has its own advantage for first-timers as well regarding enjoyment.

Highly recommended to watch the Blu-ray version as a lot of animation decisions are changed due to financial restraints in the TV version.

Summary: The Kizumonogatari films are put off until later on in the Final Season rather than after Bakemonogatari (LN Order), and Hanamonogatari is watched after Monogatari Series: Second Season rather than in between arcs.

Delaying Kizumonogatari until later on adds more to its sense of mystery regarding major characters' backstories, but in return sacrifices context for future arcs and takes away the importance of main characters' relationship development.

Another order that first-time anime watchers use. Taking into account how the author intended to convey the story and correcting production constraints, while also considering the better way to experience the story in an anime format.

Highly recommended to watch the Blu-ray version as a lot of animation decisions are changed due to financial restraints in the TV version.

Summary: Moved Kizumonogatari films to LN order to overcome Shaft production delays, Hanamonogatari and Koyomimonogatari in airing order.

Semi-Chronological Order:
https://myanimelist.net/stacks/716

Order recommended by the MC's voice actor, Hiroshi Kamiya. Though, this order is not largely popular. It is claimed that you can see how events unfold and affect the main characters, but may lose the intended mystery held within. The animation and plot style for Kizu also largely differ from the rest of the story.

NOTE: Neither Zeth_kiel, Squashbucklr nor I know anyone that has used or recommends this order, so we are unable to objectively provide comparisons regarding how different it is to experience the series in this order. I suggest not using this unless someone told you to follow this knowing that it would fit you.

Highly recommended to watch the Blu-ray version as a lot of animation decisions are changed due to financial restraints in the TV version.

Summary: Moved Kizumonogatari & Nekomonogatari: Kuro before Bakemonogatari, follows the airing order for the rest.

*Note
Hanamonogatari should be watched after the first two arcs of Monogatari Series: Second Season, followed by the last two arcs of the second season.

Make sure to watch hanamonogatari after ep 11 of second season.

Strict Monogatari series airing order.

all of the monogatari series in chronological order

The Monogatari anime in release order

This is also in my opinion the best watch order.

Note that if you watch in this order, you would need to watch Hanamonogatari in between Second Season after Episode 10.

Generally, go this order if you want to experience the series as people did when it came out, like the idea of experiencing an origin story before a finale, and or take interest in seeing how the presentation has changed and improved over the years with each instalment in the anime adaptation, at the cost of missing the originally intended order by the author.

Light novel release order.

Kansai-ben, Touhoku-ben, Hokkaido-ben, ... Japan is rich with their dialects, accents and expressions. I find certain charms to these and will try to maintain this stack adding animes involving some of these dialects.
It might take me some time to gather series and regions but I will try my best.
If you have suggestions, my comments are opens |ω･)ﾉ
(will try to take time to inform where's the dialect are from)

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, this is basically a list of all my favorite anime. Anything I give a 9 automatically gets on this list, but only the entry from each franchise I liked the most. Feel free to try and watch every single anime on this list.

There are different ways of watching this series: the suggested order (for first time viewers); the light novel order; and the chronological order. The order of the series is different with the anime because Shaft put Kizumonogatari on hiatus from 2012 when it was announced, up until 2015 when the film had finally returned to be released as a trilogy of films starting in January 2016 and finishing a year later.

Monogatari (物語, "Story") is a Japanese light novel series written by Nisio Isin and illustrated by Vofan. The plot centers on Koyomi Araragi, a third-year high school student who survives a vampire attack and finds himself helping girls involved with a variety of apparitions, deities, ghosts, beasts, spirits, and other supernatural phenomena, which often serve as proxies for their emotional and mental issues. Between November 2006 and August 2021, Kodansha published 28 volumes in the series under its Kodansha Box imprint. All of the series' story arcs share the common title suffix -monogatari (物語).
