I am a huge fan of character driven plots with great dialouges, however i have been avoiding monogatari series due to the fanservice aspect. However Considering the score and the love it recieves i want to know is it really that good? I mean Can u overlook the fanservice due to the storyline? I am actually intrigued by the trailers ngl but i am hoping that the fanservice doesnt destroy the experience for me.
Edit: Thankyou For all the replies i am certainly grateful. I am confident that this series will be just as good as everyone claims it to be and i guess all my doubts are gone

Well fanservice isn't much in monogatari, it only happens from time to time like bath scenes.
But its pretty good if you like heavy-dialogue animes. Plus visuals are gorgeous .

I don’t really mind them too much. The characters and the plot of the show make up for the occasional fan service scene.

most of things people argue about are not even fan services and you will understand what i mean if you actually get into the series and keep that in mind you are watching something different so you should think different about it... watch monogatari series starting with Bakemonogatari, plus i can give you a perfect watch order so you can enjoy the series as much as possible

There are certainly outliers, but I really don't think most people like Monogatari because of the fanservice. It's not the point of the series, and the story and characters are strong enough that it tips the scale completely in favor for the storytelling. Sure, there are bath scenes and the MC likes lolis. It's not played basic like run-of-the-mill ecchi anime, though. Not sure how to put it exactly. It adds to the quirkiness.

Even though it's gotten pretty popular in recent years, it's still not for everyone. It's quite unconventional in many, many ways, and that will put off a fair number of viewers. I think you should just dive right in and assess for yourself.

I am not fan of fan service but in this anime it felt very artsy so I actually liked it.

But it's just a very small part of the anime, there is lot more to the series.

Keep in mind it's definitely not for everyone.

Monogatari series is masterpiece for me. The dialogues and plot are amazing but I didn't mind the fanservices because they are casual. However, this series is not meant for everyone. Only those who invested their time and effort to watch this. The animation is gorgeous.

you will probably dislike nisemonogatari and kizumonogatari a little bit (or every karen/tsubasa arc and interactions) but i'm pretty confident there are a lot of good stuff being said. if you don't completely despite fanservice, the monogatari series will be worth. their story, character text, direction, animation, soundtrack and so on, it's high level. suffer in oni/nise/kizu/neko and you will enjoy owari/bake/otori/hana and such.

There isn’t that much fan service. Just lots of dialogue. It’s good I recommend.

Absolutely watch it it’s pure perfection(bakemonogatari at least) the character development for every character is extensive through the multiple arcs seen in the series even more minor characters have time to shine like tsukimonogatari a small show for Yotsugi. If you like shows that are driven by character monogatari has you covered.

I really love the characters. I think senjougahara is the best girl of all time, hanekawa is also amazing, I really like ononoki, and I really enjoyed kizumonogatari with shinobus development. Last be not least, araragi koyomi. I really love his character development, his relationships with other characters, and so much more.

I actually am aware of the watch order but I think i will love the series. It has almost everything that i like according to the viewers(Dialouge and is character driven)So i suppose i will be able to overlook the fanservice

It's like reading a light novel but there is a picture on every word and dialogue, I really encourage you to watch it. It's not worth missing this anime.
