| Rampage! ep 6. Plot: While trying to study for exams, a figure from Hitagi's past comes a calling. And then Araragi gets the crap beat out of him. Coincidence? I think not! Character: Kanbaru is new and seems to be the upbeat type. She also had the hots for Hitagi but whether that coulda been reciprocated remains to be seen. Mayoi and Araragi do seem to have a pretty good friendship. Animation/sound: The new Op is decent and definitely gives a lesbian feel. The end however when Hiatgi springs the scissors on Kanbaru is a good representation of Hitagi's story and how the relationship ended. 4/5. Bit of a swerve at the end but interesting start. |
 I go where I wanna go, even if its into Oppai. |
| Finally we got to see one of the best girls, Kanbaru-chan! The new op. made for her arc is just what one would expect. Typical anime opening. I really liked the song though. Cool opening, at least less energetic than the last one. Cool to get to know more of the past of Senjougahara and Kanbaru-chan. Pretty interesting. It's hard to believe that these two were friends in the past, and even so close. I really excited for the next ep. Damn, that dude (possibly Kanbaru because of the hand?) kicking Araragi's ass. He really got beaten there. AND lol that reacting with Senjougahara (like she didn't give a fuck) when she had come to give him the letter. No reaction at all. She is indeed a mix of tsundere and kuudere. Hhahaah Well, at least Araragi and Senjougahara have something in common to progress their relationship. Both of have closed themselves in their own word. By the way, does anyone understand the concept with Red scene and black scene? PS! Took me a while to understand that the h** ***l is to words and not one with 8 letters (see below). LOL! So in other words it's written "As her friend, she knew her well? Took me 10 God damn min. to get it. That's what you get for watching this while being half-asleep. hahaha |

| That last scene shocked me... That was scary, x10 scarier since I'm watching it on midnight. |

| Mayoi is gonna stay for awhile it seems. Also lol Koyomi got kicked pretty hard... thank God he's a vampire. |
 |
| Senjougahara is a bit too psycho, huh? xD Seems like Suruga is not just interested in him because of his relationship after all :o |
| Amazing Episode And That Last Part!!!! |
 |
| Definitely an interesting ending. |
| It makes me feel warmth and love inside knowing that people are still watching and enjoying my favorite series ;_; I miss seeing Monogatari in the Series Discussion, we need that final season soon... |
 |
| I don't really know what to say regarding this episode. It wasn't that bad but it wasn't good either. |

| O__O; That ending scared me. Seems like Kanbaru's jealous, but there's probably more to it. I'm really curious about the other pieces in this puzzle. I actually didn't expect mystery to be a genre of this series, so I'm pleasantly surprised. I love mysteries :D EDIT: Oh yeah, Sawashiro as Kanbaru was also a nice surprise. And it looks like Kana Hanazawa will be playing Nadeko, so I'm looking forward to that 😊 Thisismyname113 said: I think you're referring to episode 5? They stated that the condition to see Hajikuji is a desire not to return home, and then they hinted that Hanekawa has problems at home :/How did Hanekawa see Hachikuji, who appeared to be visible to Araragi only?? |

Rain_Machika said: hubertpivert said: SO BORING AND PRENTENTIOUS Agreed completely! My gawd this is this ever a boring ass show. I'm having an incredibly hard time not falling asleep watching it and I'm not even that tired. All it is layers upon layers of seemingly endless(and boring) dialog with random flicking imagery containing largely useless and irrelevant content thrown in every 3 seconds in a laughable attempt to make things interesting/unique but all it does is make things more disjointed and annoying. How in the **** did so many of you people enjoy this crap? I'm on the brink of dropping this garbage and I almost never drop any series. If you dislike it that much, you should probably drop it. Why continue to watch an anime if you aren't enjoying it? This show certainly isn't for everyone, and the style of the series definitely won't be changing. |
| "I've already cleared the hardest character" lmao Araragi's self-awareness is up there though. Also Senjougahara not a Tsundere confirmed. She's a mild Yandere instead! XD Hanekawa's a really interesting character, and I wanna see more of her and how she built up her weird little friendship with Araragi. Loving Kanbaru too, and her arc is shaping up very well. That ending scene had me though...it was unexpectedly brutal, but I guess I should get used to that with all the weird crap that goes on. Also, I wonder is the "half interest and half amusement thing" Hanekawa mentioned has something to do with Kanbaru's weird left side problem?? |

| I almost forgot to mention that shadow of Maiyo last episode that makes her look like a snail is really amazing for me. Haha. Alright, let's move on to this episode. Love the new OP, I guess the OP changes everytime we meet a new character, huh? :) I'm so happy we get to have more of Maiyo. Yaaay! So, Hitagi and Araragi are lovers now? Like they're official?!?!?! OHMYGOOOOOD! MY SHIP HAS FINALLY SAILED! FUUUUUCK! HAHAHA. I'm so happy. Kyaaaaa! Holy shit, maaan. What happened to the last seconds of this episode? Who beat Araragi up? Whaaaaat!?!?! Was it Kanbaru because of her bandage? Whaaaat. |

| Another great episode with the expectedly great banter between Senjyougahara and Araragi and that ending literally came out of nowhere for both me and the great Araragi lol |

| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Lots of conversation but it was more interesting than the snail arc. The ending was unexpected and much needed to get things going. |
 |
on 
| what the hell is this anime... |
| Yikes, Hitagi is batshit crazy. And you don't stick your dick in crazy. |
 |
| Oh boy, I thought Araragi gonna have a harem. Seems Senjougahara is a mixture of Tsundere and Yandere. It's a relieve too see some action after too much dialogue. Pretty sure it's Kanbaru. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| Interesting episode. I really enjoy Senjougahara and her aggressive dynamic with Araragi. I think I've said it in the past, but her relentlessly insulting him gives my life meaning. How many ways is Hachikuji going to discover to mispronounce Aragrai's name? And I definitely wasn't seeing Araragi getting attacked by a monster coming. |
| Wtf was that ending?? Really liked the dialogue in this episode |
 |
And now the introduction of the most awesome lesbian anime character I totally wish was my friend: Kanbaru! :-) I looooove the OP. They were not subtle in the slightest when it came to the yuri attraction! But can anyone really blame Kanbaru? The ばらばら part gets me jamming every time! But gee, Araragi, I guess you can say... |
| Dropped. Gorgeous visuals, boring series. I've never heard so much worthless dialogue in my life. |
Awoo :3 |
| tomboy alert TOMBOY ALERT Holy heck, this went from 0 to 100 real fast |
| OωO |
| Interested in this new girl's storyline, not much because of what we learned about her, but mainly due to that demonic monster at the end, and the close up of its hand, and then the shot of a hand they used when Araragi was talking to the new girl. Looks like Mayoi and Araragi are getting along better now, their dialogue together is very entertaining. The conversation at senjogohara's place was interesting as well. It was nice to hear them talking about their future. |
"Anime is trash... and so am I" |
on 
| Hitagi and Koyomi's conversations are still as great as ever, especially when they're on the topic of killing. I'm guessing that weird hooded monster is related to Kanbura somehow, and boy did it mess up Koyomi. I find it really funny whenever Mayoi "stutters" when she calls Koyomi "Araragi." |
 |
| The fight on the last scene was so intense:0 |
 |
| Mayoi brings more fun to the series now, the scene where Hitagi and Araragi talk to each other was interesting and the phone call with Hanekawa was very well made I have to say. I really liked how we didn't hear almost everything that Araragi said. I thought that was cool. |
 |
| senjougahara and araragi's conversation is so nice to listen to. let's see whats going to happen next episode. as always, this episode was amazing. |
 |
| Art is so pretty for a 2009 anime. |
| Anime is fun. |
| Great episode, it's good to see Mayoi since she's a really fun character. Suruga is probably jealous of Araragi because of her relationship with Senjougahara, I am guessing she's the one that beat the crap out of Araragi there or something related to her. I always don't understand what the Araragi sisters are talking about in the previews lmao. |
 |
| A new girl a new OP she seems pretty open about things and Mayoi is back with her cute appearance annoying Araragi as usual The two had a very pleasant conversation and a bit daring again with Senjougahara threatening Araragi when she heard a new girl coming out from Araragi's mouth didn't expect them to be in a relationship Well things escalated to a blood bath that ominous person is so scary and could've killed Araragi if it weren't for his regenerative powers. |
  |
| That ending was definitely surprising. Still though that "Kill you" xonversation....is kinda romantic yet odd at the same time XD |
| Love how so much exposition is able to be done while still keeping things really engaging, visuals were heaps interesting in this episode. Unmatched quality in some regards with this show, this rewatch has been excellent, haha. |
 |
| Never saw that ending coming. Oh my god I love the overall vibe of this series. The visuals are so well made and are very fitting. This episode was very entertaining as usual Love the new OP! Probably one of the most unique anime I’ve watched so far! |
