Hi, I'm Johann.



To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand the Monogatari series. The symbolism is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of how Nisioisin's mind works, the deep hints of symbolism and existentialism will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Ararararagi's loliconic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterization- his personal preferences draws heavily from Nisioisin's very own fetish, for instance. The fans understand this stuff, they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depth of how characters are developed in the Monogatari series, to realize that this series is more than just another mainstream, generic anime- the series says something deep about LIFE. As a consequence, people who dislike the Monogatari series truly ARE idiots- of course, they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humor in Hachikuji's catchphrase "sorry, I flubbed", which itself is a cryptic reference to Japanese wordplay. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Nisioisin's genius wit unfolds itself on their dimly lit computer monitors. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 and yes, by the way, I DO have a tattoo of Shinobu's eight year old form. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin' personnel, kid. 😎
