As this is personally my favorite series, I’d suggest you do what you want. Personally if you find it this boring after watching a good portion then I would drop it. Otherwise I’d suggest sticking out because the climax of the entire series is what made it my favorite.

Drop.if Kizumono didn't impress you,then I suggest dropping.This series is pretty dialogue heavy and uses its directing to make it engaging.It thr opposite of show don't tell and it can see why this show would bore people.Its okay to drop.No issues if you do.

I recommend people to drop it if they didn't enjoy the first 2 episodes of Bake. Although I think the series should be rated as a whole and not separately.

Monogatari serie is not something made for anyone to watch, specially if you have low attention spam. Series has heavy dialogues and little to no action. I personally fell in love with series only after second series so i will recommend you to stick with it till then. Otherwise you can drop it , it's totally up to you.

Honestly, i love everything about Monogatari, from the characters i care so much about (at most there are 2 that i don't like) to the massive dialogue present in the series and its ever-present bizarreness. But if you don't like it, just drop it, there's not much to do.

Did you just say monogatari is trash? I'll have you know I devoted my entire life to it. I have been watching it since 2009 when it came out. Ever since that day I have watched over 9000 episodes of anime, and still counting. I have spent well over $50,000 on merchandise. That's how devoted I am. I can assure you your favourite anime is absolute dogshit. Also, I looked at your MAL profile and what? You gave absolute trash shows a 10/10? Is this some kind of joke? You have a bad waifu and bad anime taste? That's a combo. If you have that shit of an anime taste then maybe go for western cartoons you normy.

It’s examination of tropes and how that forms the backbone of developing all the characters.

The chemistry between the characters as they bounce off each both in comedic and expository dialogues.

The amazing shot composition and editing that each of the directors throughout the series use to make the distinctive animations pop and also deliver on furthering the narrative and themes of each arc through those visuals.

And how all of these continue to progress as the series goes on.

But these are all apparent from Bake and Kizu so if you haven’t been enjoying any of that maybe shelve the series and revisit it as you explore more of the medium.

It's probably my favorite anime of all time but, I can't deny that it isn't for everyone. I think what makes it special is the banter between characters. There really isn't anything else like it. Also the amazing characters, amazing directing, and writing make it one of a kind as well. I would say finish Nise but, if you are still not impressed I would say put it on hold or drop it.

It’s dialogue heavy. You’ll get lost if you look away for 30 seconds, if you don’t like reading I wouldn’t recommend it.
The core of it is the relationship/dialogue between each of the characters, which all work really well.
The shots are unique too, overall I’ve never seen a show similar to it. If you don’t like nise I don’t think you’ll enjoy any of the other seasons, but it gets way better in Second Season imo.

Nisemonogatari is different than Bake in animation, visuals, and fanservice. It still maintains the Monogatari Series’ appeal, but if you found something that made you want to drop the series, nobody’s going to stop you. Personally, I enjoyed almost every installment in the Monogatari Series.

Well if you find the show boring then drop whenever you wanted,everyone had their own taste or if you didnt find the dialog heavy type interested
But for me,what make the show so special it because its a harem while in the same time it is not,Araragi had multiple girl liked him but the show never had more than 4 girl in 1 arc and all the character,event that happen all contribute to sonething which make it very interesting to watch.But the show is very dialog heavy so watching it could be difficult but its worth the work imo

The anime is an acquired taste. It’s also heavy dialogue so I see how it can seem “boring.” If it’s not your cup of tea, I’d drop it in now. The series is “special” because of the animation and storyline (animation shines the most though). Shaft studio’s work is always aesthetically pleasing and unique.

If you don’t like it then drop it, it’s as simple as that but imo it’s way better than the big 3.
