| Lol. It looks like Hirano Aya got cut from the Shinobu's role without speaking a word in Bakemonogatari series. XD Anyway, I did quite enjoy Sakamoto Maya's VA with Shinobu in this episode and I look forward listening to her in also Kizumonogatari. :) |
 |
| Easily the best episode so far for me. Shinobu is awesome when she talks and I'm glad the story is starting to move along. This episode actually got me more pumped up for Kizumonogatari. |
 |
| nice to hear Shinobu talking :) |
| Loved it! |
| Finally I get to hear Shinobu talk :) |

XD According to what is written on Shinobu's character page on MAL, Hirano played Shinobu on the drama CD, but was never credited for the anime. Anyway, great episode. Quite convoluted, though, it was hardest to follow so far. But things are getting VERY interesting, and Shinobu was hilarious. Can't wait for more. |
 |
| i rly hope they start picking up the pace, i love the dialog but like srsly want to see more than just talking either way solid episode =) |
| Loved this episode, specially the part tsukihi caught araragi and shinobu in the bath, also hanekawa was soooooooo cute *-* |
| Well it certainly is awesome to hear Shinobu talking, i wont mind hearing her talk for hours |

| Shinobu speaking and Hanekawa with short hair... my body wasn't ready for all this in the span of 20 min O_o The small train of though shown during the tv scene was rather hilarious lol so shinobu is perfectly aware of his harem as she make the small joke of "marring him too" O god all this questions about their past... cant wait for Kizumonogatari xD (which will take a long time until BD is out -.- ) |

| huh? |
| The whole epi was a major fanservice. But a good one. SHAFT are as insane as usual. 5/5 |
| The mind of a 400 year old in the body of a 10 year old golden haired loli. My God! Hanakawa with short hair. My god. Karen burning up. My god please save her! |
| Lots of things happening here. But what thing I'm going to say: This is the first time that I saw where there's more than 2 people talking. Karen getting stung by a fire-wreathed bee. Hanekawa defending the fire sister's action. Shinobu telling Koyomi about the bee and some sort of agreement. Tsukihi getting a knife and preparing on butchering Koyomi having a bath with a blonde loli. Also, Karen and Tsukihi really ARE the fire sisters. |

choyos said: lol so shinobu is perfectly aware of his harem as she make the small joke of "marring him too" Yeah I thought that was pretty funny I was really surprised Shinobu showed up, I am really enjoying her personality. That's one thing this series is so good at developing everyone personalities, which is usually kinda hard to pull off anyway good episode as usual. |

| |
| I did not expect Shinobu to talk. Pretty awesome though. Araragi, one of the kings of lolis. |
 |
| That episode was incredibly beautiful. I fell in love with Shinobu. Also dynamics between her and Koyomi is thrilling - something between close siblings and dark lovers. |
| Great ep 5/5 But i nearly $hit my pants when Shinobu popped out and started talking. |
  |
| My body wasn't ready yet for talking Shinobu. Great episode this anime hasn't let me down yet and I hope it never will. I actually laughed out loud when Tsukihi entered the bathroom, I thought it was hilarious. |
| To be honest i was kinda shocked for 10 seconds or so to hear shinobu talk, i always thougt she was deth or mute or something xD But from the beginning to the end this conversation between koyomi and shinobu was fantastic! They look like lovers that hate!? each other, i don't know how to explain it xD Now i really wanna see kizumongatari and know what the hell happend with the two |

| What the fuck did I just watch. |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| Seems Karen is in big trouble and the cure for her trouble still needs to be found makes me wonder what exactly happened with Kaiki. I also wonder how Senjougahara will reject when Araragi asks her is she can help his sister who got attacked by Kaiki. It's getting pretty interesting that's for sure. Shinobu talking was nice in a way and she even helped out tho she didn't seem to happy with her knowledge. Oshino must have some problems talking all day about those phenomena. And i wonder how she bared with it. |
| lol shinobu service overload^^ |
 |
| nice Ep and I cant believe shinobu can talk. I just read kizumonogatari on baka tsuki and then watched bakemonogatari and i finally understand why she was named Shinobu lol. This episode also brings out alot from Kizumonogatari that makes you more excited for its release. Looks like Oshino told Shinobu all those stories so that Araragi has info when hes gone. Tsukihi with a knife proves she is yandere or just psycho but shes still my fave. |
| Anime, Food and Sleep Who needs anything more! |
| So much win in this episode, Hanekawa and Shinobu=pure win. It seems that all those who thought it was Kaiki on the phone finally got their proof that it wasn't, the reasoning Senjougahara freaked out was great too, i guess she really feels threatened by Hanekawa stealing Araragi away after all. The Dialogue was awesome as usual but i thought the conversation between Shinobu and Araragi was particular interesting; and no not just for the sheer awesome fact that she finally talked, but because among other things the concept of extended longevity and the idea that they don't "forgive" each other (I'm guessing because of the events of Kizumonogatari) but they still found there middle ground as i felt that threat at the end was fairly empty. People can argue that this episode didn't move the plot much; but then again Bakemonogatari or this series in general (since this show does the same) doesn't focus on fast moving plot but characters and dialogue which like the rest of the series excelled in this episode; and also i wouldn't be surprised if Karen's arc ended next episode or at the very latest the episode after she we still need to see the other sisters arc; which also makes me wonder who she was going to kill with that knife; Shinobu or Araragi for being in the bath with a girl. |
 |
| Damn, that was a LONG bath scene with Shinobu and Koyomi. Can't wait to rewatch this episode when the BDs come out without all the steam/bright lighting. |
 |
| I preferred Hanekawa with long hair and glasses, I'll get used to her new look though. Shinobu!!! Finally got to hear her speak, her voice is not what I imagined it to be. She's cute, so loli, I could just steal her whilst she's naked haha! |
As it turns out, living was a punishment...  |
| Shinobu talking was a bit of a surprise. I thought I wouldn't get to hear her til kizumonogatari comes out! I have my doubts about Hanekawa and Senjougahara's conversation. I can't see Senjougahara feeling that threatened by Hanekawa. Tsukihi with the knife was pure gold! |

ryanagamis said: koyomi don't have anything between his leg ^ This lol. But man... I wish Shinobu was a bit older :] About 21 would be pretty epic haha. Reimagine that scene with a 21-year-old Shinobu :O |
 |
| Awesome to hear and see so much Shinobu, she's my favorite character in Monogatari series besides Senjougahara~ |
 |
| Yay! I've wanted to see Shinobu!! >_< Tho I didn't expect her to start up conversation with Araragi, that was a nice surprise :) Lol when Tsukihi came into the bathroom and saw Shinobu XD I was laughing so hard from that alone, but then she comes back with a knife! |

| The Blu-Ray will be diamonds. |
| Once again the visuals of this show have made me speechless. Especially Shinobu's entrance was jaw-droppingly stunning As the title indicates one reoccuring theme will be being fake displayed for example by the fire sisters who are only conterfeit heroes at least according to their brother but we have also seen other characters whothe title of being fake would apply to. Sengoku desperately tries to get closer to Araragi by taking on the role of a seductress while Kanbaru is taking on the role of a pervert even if it doesn't necessarily reflect the truth. If we take Hanekawa at her words Kaiki will be another person of this type whose fake quality is crucial for his power. Only time will tell if the fire sisters will remain at this level or eventually evolve over the course of this series. I was taken aback by Shinobu finally speaking. Her voice wasn't how I expected it to be but it works so there are no complaints from me. I found her relationship with Araragi is quite interesting. She's in general pretty coy when talking with him but one cannot help but notice the sligthly threatening undertone of their conversation. There was one particular scene which I really liked when they hit each other with their elbows acting like buddies. |

| ohh god! shinobu talked-a lot, well if I do remember correctly she's really a talkative vampire back when I read Kizumonogatari and that old fashioned way of speaking it's just as I imagined while reading the novel |
 |
| Would you trade your 'piece' for immortality? Ugh... tough call. |
    |
| Good episode,Shinobu finally talk and the conversation with Araragi was great,also it bring with some good fanservice that was awesome,Hanekawa looks nice with her new look...i like it even that it brings some Sengoku vibes. Tsukihi returning with the knife was hilarious and ya...the visuals were outstanding again. Cant wait for next episode. |
| who need donuts when you got handcuff that rich with iron and minerals. |
| Ah, I was just reminded of why Shinobu is my second favourite character in the monogatari series. |
| i dont know whether i love or hate that i love hanekawa's new look :S she seems sort of different with her new appearance, in a VERY good way and love how shinobu is finally talking, her personality is SOO different than what i wouldve imagined .-. 4 episodes into the karen bee arc, and about 5 minutes total of actual karen lol shinobu pretty much ate up the entire episode, and i really wanted to see MORE senjougahara in this episode as well |
