Worst episode yet... and looking at the poll, I'm almost alone with this opinion. D:

I always loved the dialogues but when it's not about supernatural beings but about romance, it just doesn't work for me anymore. Well, at least Tsubasa Cat will continue next week... why was this episode called Tsubasa Cat at all? They should have called it Hitagi Crap.




ah that's better

SHAFT will stream the last 3 episodes on their website because the TV station only gave them room for 12 episodes.

Personally I enjoyed the episode. They did somewhat explain why she (glasses girl o3o) had so much stress as well.
Or something like that.

I was hoping for a arc about Araragi's sisters :(

Technically, those stories have already been written, and would make good material for a second season. It's Karen Bee, and Tsukihi Phoenix.

Those two with Koyomi Vamp would make an excellent 2nd season.

5/5

Ahh, I really loved this episode! I like how Senjougahara and Araragi play off of each other. They're in love, but not in an "Aww, you're so cute! I love you!" "I love you too, sweety!" kind of way. The dynamics between them are awesome, and I couldn't help but laugh during the scene where they were in the car with the dad. Senjougahara never fails to amuse me. :3

I really loved this episode. I enjoyed every bit of this and Senjougahara is such a lovable character. The way her Dad described her to Araragi, the way she prepared the date and finally allowed Araragi into her life. Wonderful. Also the teasing in the car and her hand stroking along Araragis pants was really hilarious. I think this date was a dream first date which every girl/guy would dream of.

I'm really interesting in seeing the next 3 episodes and really hope they will be subbed. I want to know how Tsubasa Cat is going to end.

Oh Araragi-kun, how I evny thee so so much.
Like everyone else here, I really liked this episode too. Senjougahara has such lovable personality ( I'm at a lost of words describing her) and her "surprise" was, how should I say, REALLY romantic. I LOVE YOU BAKEMONGATARI!!

+1000 for the progress of romantic relationship between Koyomi and Hitagi. Just awesome episode.....

Well, other I think Araragi was more tortured and teased than anything else....lol...but he got the perfect kiss scene at the end....

5/5 episode.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

They can drop all the spirits , Tsubasas , lesbians and other various animals of different sizes and shapes in this show and just give us 3 more episodes like this one i will be completly and utterly satisfied by what Shaft has produced for us.

I`m a sucker for romance, and with such a powerful and present character as Senjougahara it`s an obvious success.

This was a great episode.
It starts with Hitagi *demanding* to go out on a date with Ararargi.
The whole conversation in the car was lol with the name confusion.
Some small reminders of Hanekawa situation.
The talk with Mr, Senjougahara was nice.
What a great view of the stars.

I'm usually not one for romanctic stuff in my anime unless it's really well done, but they pulled it off perfectly here. It didn't come off sappy or too contrived, I guess it helps that I love Senjougahara's character, too, though.

Such a great episode this was. A rather unexpected curve in the storyline too, barely a mention of Hanekawa.

I loved the banter between Koyomi and Hitagi in the car (it's supposed to be Volkswagen right?). Damn I was curious to hear that obscene line...

Didn't think the father would play a big role here other than to make Araragi uneasy but the way it turned out, with the conversation and all, was great.

The final scene with the star-gazing was technically cheesy but I felt no such sentiments.

Even though Hitagi opened up to Araragi long ago, she still can't help but tease him, under her father's nose no less. I don't think she could've shown in any other way how much she cares for Araragi.

The talk with the father was inspiring and the scene with the starry sky was REALLY well done.

Too bad we didn't really get to see a conclusion to the arc itself, but this works too.

Senjougahara - an RPG hero who goes straight into a cave without a torch

Now the real question is, would you have been one of those 99/100 to dump her?

I honestly wouldn't mind if they ended the series right here. This was a perfect episode, and Koyomi x Hitagi is by far one of the most refreshing anime couples in a very long time.

I concur. Perhaps this is somewhat of an ending, considering we don't know the nature of the 3 web episodes (or whatchacallem) that are left, maybe we won't be seeing much of Senjougahara.

This episode has skyrocketed this anime in my mind to unforeseen heights. As of now, mal doesn't have a number in its rating system high enough to do this anime justice. Even Bakemonogatari's slowlest episodes utterly destroy whole anime series in the same genre in terms of everything (animation, writing, plot, pacing, etc) imo. I haven't felt this good after an anime since toradora.
