| Those fucking snakes. That shrine was mysterious. The first thing that came to my mind once I saw Sengoku's marks, is a snake's skin. They resemble a lot |
| +1 to Kanbaru's reaction when they turned around and saw Sengoku in bloomers |
 |
| Oh hey, I like the new opening. |
That was a funny episode. |
 |
| Ah, slightly modified ED there. Neat-o. Good episode. |
| I thought this was slightly better than usual for the first epiosde of an arc, but the ending almost dragged it down to the usual 1/5. 2/5 Zarnaav said: A loli in bloomers , this show knows what subtle fan-service is . Subtle? |

| Is it just me or does Senjougahara allowed Suruga to go with Ararari only because she is lesbian? Well, even then, their walking the stairs to the shrine looked very romantic. And Hanekawa pointing out his susceptibility to girls, Suruga especially, makes me wonder how did she possible know (did she followed them up there?) Anyway I just wonder what her headaches are from. And Nadeko, she is just...  |
| Bloomers! Another japanese fetish (and mine too, yes am with you dear japanese friends) Man, Nadeko sure is hot, and little Nadeko is omega kawaii, and they show us everything we want to see in the first episode (well I want MOAR of course, not enough titties). Loved last part, what can I say, and Kanbaru was good, I love her XD Zarnaav said: A loli in bloomers , this show knows what subtle fan-service is . They do for sure XD |

| I feel a bit dirty. Ep 9. Plot: While doing a job for Oshino, Koyomi and Kanbaru discover dead snakes at a Snake God shrine. Sounds stupid of someone though. And the perpetrator is none other than...Sengoku Nadeko, a friend of his sister! Character: Koyomi, as an average male, is susceptible to girls. As it should be. Hanekawa sure did surprise me when she made that fake kiss. Was hot and not expecting it. Kanbaru is a bit of a fun bro when not trying to kill you. Animation/sound: New Op is fun and peppy. Like it more than Mayoi's. 4/5. I can't help it if I'm susceptible to girls. |
 I go where I wanna go, even if its into Oppai. |

 |
| lol at the end. |
 |
| I don't know if a child is considered, but this has just turned into a harem. |
| sup |
Random thoughts:
xD It was the first thing that came to my mind xD jajaja I need that scene to be whole! I need the full meme! |
| That reaction meme with Araragi and Kanbaru though xD Kanbaru is lewd af, probably the best lesbian in anime so far ^^ |
mcjazzman32 said: No senjougahara. Bad move. This episode was not up to snuff. She needs to be in every episode. I feel you, part of me thinks she should be in every episode too but at the same time, I think not having Senjougahara around for a little just makes you fall in love with her even more ! You can't be missed if you never go away [: |

| Such A Cute Episode And Nadeko!!!!!!!! |
 |
| Good episode, something seems really 'off' about this girl though. |
| I have to say, not a fan of the constant shots of girl's legs and chest or what not. I'm sure they'll be explained later and I'll most likely be unimpressed. Oh wow, you've hammered in the hundredth time that Araragi is horny. They're teenagers, talk about perverted. And yes, to some degree I understand artistic license was used to 'justify' it. And seriously a little girl undressing, is that really necessary, just use a woman for gods sake or just show the legs with the marks, no need to strip completely. |
| Nothing can happen until you swing the bat. |
| The new OP is the best of them all, at least so far. The tune was catchy and soft. Although I haven't really formed an opinion about Nadeko, I really want to know why is she sacrificing snakes in an abandoned shrine of all places. I'm missing Senjougahara, but Kanbaru is a good addition and often makes funny comments that lighten the mood. Hope they keep her around while also showing more of Senjougahara. I noticed they often talk about her, which makes her absence even weirder. |

This was hilarious; I always thought this was an edited picture 😂 |
| Dammit Nadeko is cute. Also gotta love the bizarre relationship that's blossomed between Araragi and Kanbaru. They were both completely perving off Nadeko at the end there lmao Looks like she's got an interesting arc anyway with the whole snake scale business. Highlight of the episode was definitely Hanekawa though...she's so intriguing. Like she's been there in the background since episode 1, but we don't know much about her accept the fact that Araragi isn't really interested in her (oddly enough). Seriously, how can you perv off Nadeko and Hachikuji but not Hanekawa?! |

| Seeing Kanbaru being so gay towards cute girls made me snort. Haha. And how the fuck Hanekawa found out that Kanbaru's so clingy with Araragi? What. I wonder if the new character being around affects the character in the show (especially the bakemono ones haha). Snake god this time, huh? And I wonder what happened to her body. Holy shit. Kanbaru caught Araragi buying porn mags. Pfffft. Hahaha. Their relationship is glorious. Kamiyan x Miyukichi. Hehe. And the new character is friends with Araragi's sisters and she seems like Araragi 'romantically'. Lmao. Hitagi's birthday is July 4, and of course, she's gonna spend it with Araragi ALONE. Huehuehue. |

| I've always heard that song in the memes and I had NO idea it was from this show! |
 |
| The opening sure was great and Araragi was really hilarious this episode end. |
| I know that op and it felt like something was missing there. That ending was pretty unexpected. |
| Man Hanekawa sure is an interesting character with the fact that she is extremely smart, pretty attractive, and definitely has a good grasp of everything going on around her at all times. I do hope, and expect, to learn a lot more about her in this series. Also the whole exchange between Araragi and Kanbaru was exceptionally hilarious. Man, Shaft's use of, I guess weird drawings of their characters to hyperbolize their emotions is just amazing. I can't imagine how any other studio would have done this show, and probably series once I get further down the rabbit hole lol |

| I don't know why, but i'm liking the fanservices of this anime, meanwhile, fanservice of Sword Art Online makes me crinch :/. This new OP singed by Kana Hanazawa is so cute *3*. New loli is cute too... |

| I don't like Nadeko so much. She's a bit annoying. I think that this arc will be short. |

| I guess Hanekawa is smarter than Senjougahara. Time to call MEME. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| Obligatory. We finally got Renai Circulation ladies and gentlemen. My life is complete. The snake thing is pretty creepy. Hopefully, we will get an explanation as to why Sengoku is butchering snakes. Kanbaru searching for Araragi's porn magazines was pretty funny to watch too, as was Araragi saying he was thinking dirty thoughts about Sengoku. |
Not my favourite arc by any stretch, but it does have a chillax OP and an interesting, 可愛い character so a fella won't complain too much |
| So this OP was from bakemonogatari wow. It's nice to discover the source of a meme ramdomly |
 |
| I liked the new opening. Sweet and chill opening. Not so very adventurous as the previous, but very good indeed. Looks like Kanbaru loves to annoy Araragi which makes it very funny. With clinging on his body and trying to find his porn magazines. LOL! Seeing butchered snakes was something weird, but it's somehow related to Sengoku. Looks like everyone who is near her doesn't feel that well except for Araragi which is probably immune to any demonic power. Looks like they went in full ecchi mode with showing Sengoku nude body: . Their Bloomer's reaction was very hilarious: . Good ep., the only sad part that Araragi and Tsubasa never kissed: . In an ecchi series like that may happen. |

tr25a3 said: It was the same with Senjougahara in Ep. 2 when she suddenly stood completely naked in front of Araragi whom she just met. Shamless character? Or just fanservice? Most probably fan service. Both Senjougahara and Nadeko aren't that shameless to show their nude budy to anyone. ^^ |
| |
| nice episode plus we got a delicious fan service at the end which is always good! |
| oh my god it's her AHHHH THE MEMES I mean, I knew she was from the Monogatari series but I didn't expect her to appear in the very first season. I frankly don't even feel like commenting on that last scene (before the ending/outro). Stuff like that is the only thing I don't like about this series so far. It's slightly unsettling to know that it will get even worse in the future since... I have heard about t͘҉̪̮h̗̗͚̺̤͚̹ȩ̧̪̰̥͔͘ ͎̻̲̗͟ṭ̵̮̟̞͈̮̀̕o͏̛̞̝̙͍͉͇̤o͚͖̣͖̲̗t҉̰̥̮h̴҉̫͉͖b͖͚̝͇̥̟r̻̦͚̱̲͍̺͉̰̀ù͔̭̤͓ͅs̴̥̞͕͓͎̰̮̦͜h̴̯͕̗̠̞̥̕̕ |

I FOUND THE HOLY RENAI CIRCULATION! It sounds like this arc is going to be quite interesting. As someone who really doesn't like snakes seeing those dead snakes was very scary. I am interested to find out what is up with Nadeko's body and why it has snake prints on it. You can see two different kinds of thought in the last scene, Araragi takes a closer look at the marks on Nadeko's body to see if there is anything sketchy about them and if he needs to take her to Meme, while Kanbaru straight up says it looks like rope bondage, What would make her think a middle schooler would do rope bondage is beyond me but that shows her weird thought process. |
