| Interesting start, i really liked the intro and the style that was used for the structure of the show. Hitagi's shoulders looked weird though : D |
 |
| Kara no Kyoukai in SZS style XP Undeniably awesome it was! |
 |
| weird in good way |
 |
| Don't like the art, but the music is good and the story (as far as I can understand) is good. One thing bothers me though: LOTS of things written in japanese everywhere, even in people's eyes. I can't understand it cause it's not possible to sub all of them, so it only bothers me. |
| the animation is really nice. :] i'm happy that i've decided to watch this. :] |
"Perhaps the distant part of the sky always seems clearest, so that we will always strive to reach it."  chiquit |
| I was expecting a lot since everyone keeps telling me this is an amazing show, but I was kinda bored... =/ |

After all the praise and good reviews this show have been giving I thought it would be a good idea to watch it. Though personally I see nothing special or particularity outstanding about it, will watch a few more episodes and see how things play out though. |

(Oh I'm glad I still hang around the first episodes, so I can show the unbelievers unto to correct path : >) |

| This show reminds me a lot more of EF then it does SZS. |
| pretty interesting series =D |
     |
| Animation is delicious and director's work is great. Waiting for more. |
| Okay, this Anime is very unique. I loved those random abstract scenes, sounds, and art/animation. The Anime has a mysterious aura surrounding it. So, this Senjogahara is like Haruhi, for me she is. :> They better give explanation about these vampire, crabs, shrines, etc because I have no clue where the fuck they came from. |

| Well that was interesting...whats so bad about being weightless though? and his riddles didnt make much sense to me >< |
 |
| Many have said that Bakemonogatari is one of the best anime of 2009, so I'm checking it out before this year ends. Just from the first episode though, I'm not terribly impressed. It wasn't bad, but it was a bit boring in many parts. I also think it's stupid why that guy would help a girl who just stapled his inner cheek for stupid reasons. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |

| wow, so hes a former vampire, and she is nearly weightless and carries a small arsenal of school supplies as weapons |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
DearSky said: Is this anime perverted? They showed that underwear scene the first few minutes of the show. >.< So I dropped it immediately. You're an idiot. |
kaena said: wow stapled INSIDE THE MOUTH thats what got me interesting hitagi is the worst case of tsundere-ism i have seen in my life She isn't really 'tsundere' anyway, despite that she uses the expression herself. Mind you, she doesn't say that she is. She says that she is what is 'known as'. |
| Umm it's interesting at least, would have liked to have seen his vampire attack. Liked the ending song, and the opening was odd but well done. |
 |
Charliehsv said: Stunning episode, loved everything about it. Art, bgm, characters, story, dialogue, atmosphere, humor everything was great. :3 |
 |
DearSky said: Is this anime perverted? They showed that underwear scene the first few minutes of the show. >.< So I dropped it immediately. whoa, you're missing the good part. nice mouth Koyomi xD |
| Liking the art, the randomness and the storyline. Also the name Oshino Shinobu - A heart under the blade. :) |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| The story seems interesting. Hopefully it will be as good as people have said it is. |
| Okay. Interesting animation. Let's see how the story goes. If it turns out to be too confusing, I'll drop it. |
     |
ClementIV said: That's what I'm thinking and hoping. Hitagi is hott. The staple to the cheek was brutallll. Can't wait to see where this is going.The story seems interesting. Hopefully it will be as good as people have said it is. |
 |
| The story definitely seems unique to me and has me intrigued, gotta watch some more of this. and lol what? DearSky said: Is this anime perverted? They showed that underwear scene the first few minutes of the show. >.< So I dropped it immediately. |
| God , did they really had to show that pantie-shot at the beginning ? |
| That panty shot is for the prequel of Bakemonogatari, Kizumonogatari. Seriously, it was the reason that Koyomi had to go out and buy ero-books in the night to forget about that image, got attacked by Shinobu and turned into a vampire. Without that, he won't attract any oddities, so no Senjougahara, Hanekawa, Sengoku, and even Bakemonogatari for you, folks, if not for that panty shot. And this anime is perverted, in a high level. |

Okay, this confuses me. I thought that the opening scene demonstrated his exceptional vision, and that the OP took place in the past. |
| Whoa! |
 |
| Very impresive. The design with the text popping up and sometimes wrong or missing colors looks really good. The story seems interesting too. This makes a good alternation to the other series I recently watch/ed. |
| lol Hitagi is quite the defensive one. Loving the animation! :) |
| Ugh I can't stand something like this i wanted to fall asleep but i guess I'll finish the show just because I don't want any anime on my dropped list. |
| Real Hell is inside a person-Ai Enma (Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae) Do you know where hell is? Inside your head-Chrona (Soul Eater)  |
| that chick is edward scissor hand daughter |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| A staple in your mouth...that's gotta hurt! |
| I really think I might enjoy this one. The story is kind of iffy as it is, but the art, style, and everything else seems unique in a sense. Which I think makes into a good anime. Looking forward to the next! |
| Gotta say, love the atmosphere, mix between the music and the color palette. Also adds to mystery and intrigue, makes me want to watch more. Thought the "former vampire" thing was a bit sudden and odd though, hope they work that in right. Guess there are vampires in this anime, eh? And where does she put all that stationary? Interesting choice of weapon. |
| pretty intense 1st ep we got here, makes me shiver from excitement.. |
