THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
So it's just a overview of the last two arcs, hmm? Ah well. I don't mind it at all.
We get a little more info about Heart Under Blade the vampire in the very beginning.
Araragi called himself a tsukkomi :).
Also liked how the two OPs were inserted into this episode.
Look forward to epi 6 tomorrow, I guess.

Since there's a specific entry for the recap specials, I moved the thread here and changed it into the ep 1 discussion thread.

Yeah mate, you could put it that way.
5.5, the thing that came in between 5 and 6, the thing that aired the day 6 was supposed to air, take your pick.

Interesting recap. Now it's time for ep 6.

where can we stream it online??
Just do a google search for Bakemonogatari 5.5....the first 3 links should all be places you can stream from...though I believe it's still RAW.

I'm no fan of recaps but this one was pretty good, even though I watched it RAW.

Though I don't really like recaps, I have to admit that this one was pretty good. (ep 15 in June... argh!)

Not bad, although it was basically just episodes 4 and 5. I thought I was watching the same episode again.

This recap was actually really good, i really enjoyed it. I like Bakemonogatari's style a lot, except when it shows "real" things, which for me are weird.

One million fucking years later. What took so long? No one was interested in subbing it since it's a recap?

Feel like watching the whole series again.
I used to believe the brain was the most important organ in the body.
Then I realized - - Look what's telling me that.

I would like to know if there were any new scenes of Shinobu that wasn't shown in the first five episodes. If there was can someone tell me where I can get this episode in mkv format.

This was actually pretty good for a recap, Ithink the narration added some value to it.

And we got to see Ararararararagi beat up Hachikuji again ;)

Not bad I liked the first part with the somewhat tsundere character. The snail character was kind of meh. I might give the main series a watch.

Since I long ago accidentally started this anime from the wrong order, NOW I'm watching this in the correct order, and this was good to remind myself where I left off.

I've been trying to search everywhere, and it seems this episode must be lost or something. There isn't really any traces of it, and it doesn't seem to be anywhere I look. It's a shame, because I'm sure many people have seen this episode before. ;-;
