This topic has probably already been run into the ground for this particular season at this point but I’m curious to see the current state of what people think about it as it’s very overboard sexualization and sexual tones compared to its previous and successor seasons.


As a fan of the series I am well aware that monogatari is no stranger to fan services (most of the time I’m for it as well 💀) and I understand that this season explored Araragi’s relationships through sexual tones but I found it to be annoying and kinda unbearable at times. There are certain scenes that come to mind especially THAT scene but all of them most of the time were just uncomfortable. Don’t get me wrong I’m not against fan service but this just felt so weird compared to the rest of the series.

The fanservice was great, but unfortunately we didn't get a sex scene between Araragi and his sisters.

Still great fanservice tho.

It seems to me people tend to overreact to those scenes like it's the end of civilization. I know that it's just a fictional story with unrealistic contexts, therefore, I'm not able or willing to imitate them the real world, just as I'm not killing people or planning to commit crimes because I enjoy playing GTA or Call of Duty.

@Saimatsu_Fan Fiction or not those scenes always felt weird to me (specifically Nise). Call me boring but I prefer the show when he isnt molesting little girls and getting incesty with his siters 💀

It was fantastic. Fan service is a strange one, 99.9% of shows do it bad and make it feel really repetitive and boring and uninteresting. This is one of the shows that makes it really entertaining because of how well they incorporate it and how unique and different it is in general

Been watching this show for a while now and really enjoy its amazing story telling trough its character interactions so it’d be silly to drop it for something like that lol

it's honestly what makes monogatari so great or at least adds on to its greatness. Monogatari is literally humble asf knowing what kindve story it can be and direction it could easily take to be more of a watchable exprience. But people do need to realize this anime is honestly built upon punchlines and subtle comedy.

So say when a fight scene is rushed or skipped, it's simply the pov of whomever being like "that isn't interesting or fun enough lol". When it's anything having to do with fanservice, it's obligatory used to be the most wild and vile for a sense of shock value to add "pazzaz" to the story they are telling. And from whomevers pov thinks that would make it more interesting.

Monogatari to some may see it holds itself back from being however good they think the show can be when in all honesty shaft or nisio isin knows this very well and is explicitly acknowledging the viewers reactions and says I'll do it again. Like a big ass troll.

Honestly the thing I realized about this show and a big reason why it's just so peak.

That’s actually a great point and I do respect this season in that way and that was the sorta vibe I got from it as well. With that said even though I didn’t like how overboard it is compared to other seasons I can respect it for doing so if that makes sense. Especially the toothbrush scene which takes a completely non sexual act somehow makes it insanely sexual. I can respect that lmao.
Though I am kinda shock of how much of a hot take this was 💀

yea your good honestly it's crazy in how yes monogatari is a very well written and thought provoking show that deals with themes so flawlessly and themes I don't really see that are discussed in any other media alone. Couple that with great animation and unique art direction like yea its peak. But people don't realize how genuise it all truly is when in all honesty it's a slice of life comedy show just about character interactions and out of pocket moments to one up the stories that are told again and again. Which imo is what truly makes it peak

EXACTLYYYY

Like people are like “if you don’t like that then don’t watch the show”, but why would I let something like that stop me from experiencing the very unique and interesting ways the characters interact with each other. On top of this the edited and style of this show is like nothing I’ve ever seen. It really is a beautiful show. I’m just kinda surprised on how shallow people think of it.

Yea its honestly crazy how alot of ppl which respectfully so watch it think it's peak because oh great writing and uniqueness which yes is 100% true but never look at the bigger picture this anime truly has to offer. It's honestly why like I said when I recommend this anime to someone I say view it as a SoL comedy with harem/romance attributes with some supernatural and you'll have a good time.

So true. Nisio Isin 🐐 fr fr

While Nise might not be the most critically acclaimed part of the series, I still love it. I mean sure, Nise is probably a lot more weirder than anything other part because of its fan service but that's what I like about it. For me, Nisemonogatari is one of the most fun I had with Monogatari Series.
