| Well, Senjougahara and Shinobu made this a pretty enjoyable episode. The only thing that could have made it any better would be some Kanbaru. It's interesting how little Karen has actually been in this arc, considering it's supposed to be about her. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| Well, Shinobu is going to solve this case pretty quickly! XD |
 "I like to expose what people hide. I'm an intellectual rapist." - Furudo Erika |
| So...did they actually kiss? Too much Senjougahara, not enough Shinobu. |
 |
| Excellent dialogue. I'm having so much fun watching this show. Senjougahara and Mayoi bits were great. I also like seeing Shinobu more as well. Love these characters. I really like it when shows balance out characters like this series has done. Made this same point about Toradora! even though that is a slightly different genre. |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| another conversation between koyomi and mayoi yey yeah! always interesting if these two talking together :D that pencil tower that senjougahara made.. I wish I can make it some day :p |
| I want a vampire who helps me when I need help |
| Hachikuji admitted that she loves to be harassed by Araraki. And Shinobu is so damn cute :3 |
 |
| great episode as always |
 |
| Aww no sexual harassment on Mayoi. ^_^ Great episode with the usual fantastic dialogue. |
| Mayoi is best. Gahara's poses are best. Shinobu explaining how Araragi should react to her tsundering -- best. This show? |

| I actually seem to enjoy Nise more than I did Bake. |
 |
| Mayoi just keep entertaining me. She's so funny and cute at the same time :3 I wonder what Araragi meant by saying : ''I couldn't imagine what was going to happen to her''. Will something bad happen to her? I hope not :( The with Sengouhara was hilarious. All those crazy pencil sculpture xD From what I understood, she's gonna cut her hair after beating Kaiki? Shinobu is back and ready for action. That cliffhanger... |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
Felixphaeton said: I love the Detective Conan reference xD Ha, someone did notice. Senjougahara and Araragi together is just gold on the screen. And Karen you idiot, she's going to get worse than a kiss at this rate. |

| How did Hanekawa get Hitagi to be submissive ? |
| Long Conversation with boy mayoi and hitagi respectively ... Damn.. My head !! Panic much!! Woah .. I didn't think that I'll imagine koyomi as a hero after that scene!! Shinobu helps!! Good Ending. Good Episode . Note : no fanservice because of no kiss lol!!! |

| I always love the little references, simple, but entertaining! Another very enjoyable episode, as usual, I love the interactions between Mayoi and Arararagi |

vhynz said: RediceRyan said: great episode as always Next episode should be great too. I like that arcs are not as short as they were in Bake. I want more romance between Araragi and Senjougahara! Well, a team fight will be interesting too.. |
 |
| I loved those JoJo's poses that Senjougahara was doing. I can't wait to see what will happen next episode because Araragi is probably about to find Kaiki soon. |
 |
| The conversations with Senjougahara are still interesting. And I really like that violin (or cello) music cue that first played an episode or two back with Kaiki. |
| Nice episode. I love these talks between Araragi and Senjougahara |
 |
| I bet the people at Shaft thought they were being really clever and self-aware with that scene where they're talking about foreshadowing, but they were actually being pretentious. Also, in the preview: "While this saying appears rather profound and deep at first, isn't it shockingly trivial?" Funny how she says that, considering how everyone in the show talks that way. 2/5 |
 |
| Eh, I really didn't like it that they ended last ep with cliffhanger and then totally skipped it, they are trolling their viewers hard. I find it interesting that while Araragi fears that Senjougahara would kill Hanekawa if he started dating with her, Senjougahara on the other hand fears that if Hanekawa wanted she could steal him away. Dat Senjougahara foreshadowing though ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Oh, and lovely Shinobu in the end. So she can't refuse his order? :)) There are sure many tsunderes here :D Well, but I'm still not happy that all girls need to have short hair :/ |

| What? Foreshadowing but no KISSU?! Ep 6. Plot: After a brief conversation with Mayoi, Koyomi talks with Senjougahara as she prepares to confront Kaiki. He convinces her to take him with her but when Karen goes missing, he has to find her. Character: Senjougahara steals the show with the sheer force of her personality. She wants to deal with Kaiki because she wants to move forward for there are things she wants and the revenge for what he did to her family. It brought a strong point though: Does the inevitable stop the blame from falling on those who cause it? Hitagi's family was not gonna survive their problem but the fact that Kaiki sped it up most likely made it worst, from her perspective. Koyomi used the power of Love. It was friggin SUPER EFFECTIVE. The conversation with Mayoi highlight an issue when it comes with dealing with people. It's hard to deal with kids that act like kids cause they follow a kid's mentality. But it is worse to deal with an Adult that thinks like a child. THough it is a melancholic discussion to due Mayoi's present state. But that Conan reference was good though. ANimation/sound: Hitagi's sexy moves were captured to great effect. 5/5. THe penultimate of the Karen Bee arc. |
 I go where I wanna go, even if its into Oppai. |
| I wanted to see Koyomi x Karen kiss, damn you SHAFT! Hachikuji lol that was brilliant, as usual, any part involving Hachikuji is brilliant. Man, I love how she says Araragi-saaan, so sexy :3 Remember Araragi-san, no doesn't mean no if it's about you and me and don't make the same mistake twice!!! Boringhara was boring as fuck as usual, how much I hate her constant lifeless "so", I wanna kill myself. Idk why she's so popular here on MAL, 13000+ member favs I don't understand, she's number 23, Haruhi is 24 and Taiga is 17. Oh please don't... Maybe some cheating I guess. Haruhi and Taiga are way more interesting and funnier than Boringhara. Shinobu part was great, she's so adorable as a tsundere lol, I'd say she's the best pedo-trap I've ever seen, if she hadn't 8yrs old appearance I'd say Monogatari must have Koyomi x Shinobu ending if not wincest or Hanekawa ending. lol I imagine that mass destruction of Boringhara fanboys, it would be delicious meal XDDD. Well any girl is sexier and more interesting than Boringhara. |

| Shinobu is becoming one of my fav characters. Might even be better then Senjougahara. We shall see. |
| Ahhh Hachikuji as Meitantei Conan is just too much |
| Shinobu was funny, she really tsundere-ed there for a bit as well ^^ |
| re watching the show and knowing what will happen it kind of feels when Gahara-san said "you wont be sleeping tonight" that she was thinking about spending the night araragi? Think about it what she does next is resolve her feelings about truly loving Araragi not only because he saved her but because of who he is and how does she do that? reaffirming that she hates Kaki as a person and that she whatever she thought about in the past was fake and so the end result is her finally being free of her trauma and fully accepting her relationship. |
 Truly, comparisons between fellow humans are what turn out to be the most infuriating. |
| I swear that this seriously gets better every episode! |
| I'm interested as to what exactly happened between Senjougahara and Hanekawa. Also slowly falling in love with Shinobu. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Nisemonogatari - Episode 06 : Araragi Senjougahara, you might not know this, but I love you. Even if you do become a criminal, and end up in jail, I'd still visit you every day. But I'd rather be with you all the time. Sometimes, I don't know why I'm dating you. But I love you so much, I don't need a reason. He does not know why he loves her so he says he loves everything about her. He knows what he hates about her but he uses "despite" to exclude it from everything about her. That is just playing with words. He does not love her as it seems to be but just CARES for her at the most. In this episode, he literally just played her so she would allow him to meet Kaiki. For those who still thinks that Hitagi&Araragi could have a S_X Life with Shinobu around |

| -> It does not matter if everything else is BAD as long as the PLOT/STORY is GOOD! -> TRAGEDIES are for MASOCHIST so count me OUT! -> TRUTH sometimes HURTS! -> | Reddit | FanFiction |  |
| I always like the talks between Araragi and Hachikuji- I feel like he blows steam off by talking with her, but I guess it's the whole reason she appears to him in the first place. They only ever really meet whenever Araragi has a problem which is basically all the time and I could get into the whole adult off loading problems onto the child thing but I won't bother. Senjougahara really hates Kaiki. I'm looking forward to seeing them interact. Also, episode 4 kind of exemplified it, but this one really confirmed it. Araragi has the best interactions and relationship with Shinobu. You could say the same about other girls, namely Gahara and Hachikuji, but when Shinobu and Araragi speak there's this little "spark" between them that's missing with the others. I don't think it's exactly romantic, but it's something. It stands out and Shinobu's only been speaking for like 2 episodes. Also, can we just appreciate how gorgeous that last frame of Araragi was? *o* |

| Take out the sexual harassment from Araragi and all you have left is a flea :P Shinobu was great again for the brief scene she was in :) |
| I guess after being sexually harassed by Kanbaru, Araragi decided to not sexually harassed Mayoi anymore, but Mayoi is disappointed af and after all this time she likes being sexually harassed by Araragi, and pretending to be angry at him to make him do it more. What the fuck, Mayoi? Hahahaha. Now Hitagi and Araragi decided to go to that asshole's den and punish him. I swear he looks like Oshino-san. Mhmmm. Maybe a brother of his? Idk. "Tsundere-ing" Hahaha. Goddamnit, Karen. Where on earth did you go this time!?!? Yaaay more Shinobu talking and she'll help Araragi to look for Karen. |

| Man one of these days I need to read the light novels of this series so I can compare how good of a writer Nisio Isin is to how well Shaft produces this show because they basically made a show that is 95% talking incredibly interesting and engaging which is something not many studios can do. Hats off to Shaft Also I'm liking having Shinobu more in the story, especially because of the blurred and interesting lines in her relationship with Araragi |

| 5/5 Amazing... I loved this episode |
"No matter where you go, everyone's connected." Iwakura, Lain. |
| This arc has been pretty long, I'm glad to see Shinobu on action. She's becoming more and more "best girl" material for me. What the hell is Nisio thinking, cutting all the beautiful girl's into shotrsh*t. I'm sorry Senjougahara, once you cut your hair into Short-hair-untermensch form, it's over for you, you'll no longer be the best girl in the series for me. |

| Hitagi style of talking: Bending her neck to the back while looking at the person she's talking. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| Hachikuji's disappointment over Araragi not sexually harassing her was funny. I never thought she enjoyed it. She's actually pretty smart for her age. She was giving him some good advice. Has Senjougahara even met Hachikuji for long enough to not like her? I don't remember those two meeting in the first place. That is... a lot of pencils. There have got to be more cost-efficient weapons that Senjougahara could use. Using dozens of pencils can't be very effective. I wonder what the request Senjougahara wants to make is. What's up with her calling Hanekawa her master? Is she just messing around with Araragi? Shinobu is a fun character. I like her. More tsunderes are never a bad thing. |
