| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Episode 3 got leaked on a channel called Yahoo GYAO. Cool 007 reference in the opening few minutes!  We get a lot of Araragi dialogues this episode. Same with Ougi. It seems this arc reflects somewhat of Araragi's past though...and the reasoning behind Oikura's hatred. Really liked the word plays used in this episode. |

| Ougi's so perceptive damn. Araragi forgetting all these memories and why Sodachi hates him, Ougi got it spot on. Next episode seems like Sodachi will fill in the rest of the blanks in Araragi's memory for him. This sodachi tho---- |

| its leaked damm but i rather wait for subs, better subs tbh |
| Morale of the story: Math, not even once. Araragi was also super cute when he was young. Also, SHAFT seem to be enjoying the western references this season. |
 |
| Subs were bad but still watched it. The episode was good. And also enjoyed the James Bond reference. |
 |
| sasuga leak-chan |
  |
| ougi is acting only on the things that araragi says thus making him recall only certain parts of the past. it's kinda like araragi is having a conversation with himself, lol. |
| "I'm made of that summer" man, that sentence hit me hard. good episode, loved the dialogues. now we've to wait for Oikura to reveal her side of the story. |
  |
| I loved how they managed to keep the suspense before, during and after the episode. Ougi was actually pretty funny this episode. I lol'ed at the manga version of Oikawa. |
 |
| Fantastic episode that we got earlier than expected. Shoujo Manga Oikawa is best. |
 |
| damn, 6days 23 hours more of agonizing on what's going to happen next |
| My Reviews and Rants: http://bunny1ov3r.wordpress.com/ 痛就是爱 |
| Dang, so Araragi's still missing something huh? I wonder how we're going to solve this next episode. "Whether or not Oikura Sodachi was behind this door is entirely impossible to prove." Way to sneak in a Schrodinger's Cat reference. |
 |
| The two sides fought, though for the most part disparate from one another, the two desired for something they lacked just sitting on the other side. Despite knowing Araragi's love for math, why would Oikura point her fingers at Araragi when she herself knows it is impossible, if that summer really became a part of him that is. Then, was she trying to show part of the real world to Araragi, thus hinting how her circumstances once were, being a victim of others' "wonderful" works, yet Araragi once again sorely missed the point of her intent. Looking forward to the other side of the story. |
 |
| Well damn. Ougi blew my mind |
| Hi there |
| it really blows my mind how we have just 2 people sitting in the same room for nearly the whole episodes talking to each other and still having me glued to the screen, hitted by several emotions and realizations. monogatari never fails to amaze me. |

| Ougi seriously knows way, way more than she really has any right to. Once again, this episode reinforced my belief that there's something not right about her, and I'm now getting the feeling that it's going to be something massive, something of a scale that we have not yet seen from this series before. As for Oikura, it's understandable why she'd blame Araragi but I still find it quite ridiculous. What did she expect him to do when she tells him to keep it all secret? If someone tells you to keep a secret you usually do, especially at that age. In any case, how their next meeting plays out should be very interesting indeed. |
| math angel lol wow that interesting and good i couldn't take my eyes off the screen |
 |
| Damn, I want the next episode. This show is really interesting. |
| What happened to senjougahara's hair? Thought she had long hair? |

| a pretty dark ep and how ougi solved the whole thing was awesome i really like her mysterious personalty |
| Another great episode. I'm starting to like Ougi now. 5/5 64SuperNintendo said: The Monogatari series is a dialogue-heavy series, so I don't know what you're actually expectingAnother week, another episode's worth of TALKING. 2/5 |

| Chibi araragi best husbandu 2015. |
64SuperNintendo said: Another week, another episode's worth of TALKING. 2/5 Excuse me, can you give me an episode of monogatari series which dont have lot of dialogue? Since this series have a lot of talk in every arc, which make many watcher picky about the subs they choose |
dend08 said: 64SuperNintendo said: Another week, another episode's worth of TALKING. 2/5 Excuse me, can you give me an episode of monogatari series which dont have lot of dialogue? No. That's the point. |
 |
| So Oikura and Araragi had a connection from the past? Kinda understand why she hates him. And Ougi is quite creepy, feels like she knows exactly what Araragi is thinking. |
 |
| I found the mystery to be extremely interesting and entertaining. I was engrossed with Araragi finding out about his past and why Oikura hates him so much. Moreover, I was intrigued at the way Ougi kept manipulated Araragi into accepting her explanations (I should probably learn from Ougi)- most of which had also me convinced when as I was listening to her. However, after taking a step back to consider Ougi's explanation, I feel that some points are inherently weak - e.g. the explanation of why Oikura didn't call the police herself felt like it was pulled from the air and was baseless. That being said, I feel that the weakness in Ougi's explanation was intentional and is hinting that the 'memories', which Ougi 'helped' Araragi to recall, are actually erroneous. Overall, I am starting to get a hunch that a major theme of this season is confabulation - the unconscious filling in of gaps in memory with fabricated facts and experiences - and am hyped up, not only by the involvement of math in this season, but also memories. Can't wait for the next episode :) 5/5 |
| Revelations, my eyes are burning  Nisio Ishin never disappoints me with his writing skills It seems like from now on we'll wait on how the interactions will unfold between Araragi and Oikura Mod Edit: additional reaction images tagged. |

| I'm liking Ougi more and more with each episode. So Sodachi's riddle must be an SOS that Araragi failed to notice (or simply ignored). I'm guessing she lived in his household at one point, because of her family issues, which is probably the reason why she knows about his parents being policemen. |
 |
| Keep clam and... i dunnu what to do >_< Don't want to watch without sub TOT but waiting is... ugh |

I don't remember a single episode of Monogatari without a lot of dialogue. Nice troll. I know that every episode of Monogatari has talking, that's the point and I even replied that to someone else earlier. In my opinion, it's bad, but it has some redeeming qualities and that is why I keep watching. I like how I can talk shit about any other show in their discussion threads, and no one has any problems with it nor questions me about it, but I say anything negative about Monogatari and I'm a troll. |

| God, for Arararararararagi to thought Ougi's house is an unused house, I can't even imagine how wreck her house is, even after SHAFT visualized it. |

| There were still something that Araragi forgot , after all of that ? Okay, i better stop thinking and wait what will happen in the next episode. Anyway, it is to late to mention this but , why ougi eyes are all black? is she a demon or something? that is really making me curious, and it's look very suspicious to me. |
 |
| Damn you NisiOisiN and Shaft! Three weeks ago I had never heard of Sodachi Oikura, now I'm totally obsessed with finding out why she hates/loves Araragi and what the mystery is about her that we still need to solve... More importantly, when asked why anime should be taken seriously as an art form, the Monogatari series is one I can point to as proof it is as legitimate as any other cultural product these days (Sturgeon's law not withstanding.) |

Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Another very good episode. I find amazing how the Monogataris are one of the series that never bores me. It just don't matter how much talk the series have, it always manages to make me invested and interested in what the characters talk. Even banals conversations ends up being important later. That riddle was very interesting, I like how Ougi was leaving clues to Araragi to resolve it. It seems like Araragi meet Oikura during a summer when he obtained low scores and she teached him maths. But the end indicates that they actually meet long before that summer. Also Ougi indicates that the reason why she hates him is because he don't remember her and that he forgot that she help him to improve his maths, there that she says in the last episode that Araragi is an ungrateful person. Also Oikura suffered domestic violence during the time that she teached Araragi maths, and that she wanted that Araragi parents arrested her parents, but Araragi didn't realizes it. That last conversation with Hanekawa leave us to the question that they meet much before that summer, as Oikura know the job of Araragi parents, so she must be a close friend, as Araragi says to Hanekawa that he try to avoid reveal the profession of his parents to the people. The episodes feel very short to me, I already want to see the next one T_T. Btw, Shota Araragi was cute and Ononoki cameo make laugh. |
 |
| Ouji's involvement in this season is pretty exciting. She is the most mysterious/dark character of the series. |
| Das Feenreich! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUvxzKt5GoM |
| DAYUM, that was intense, one mystery after another regarding their relationship and that random yotsugi moment was the best xD |
| So we got to learn a little more about Araragi and his past with Oikura. I felt kind of bad for her when Ougi said she suffered from domestic violence. Good episode overall. It's amazing how each episode is just the same 2 people talking to each other for 20 minutes yet it's able to remain so interesting. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| After this episode, I'm fairly confident that Ougi actually knows everything about the incidents Araragi was involved in since he was a kid. (S)he continued to cue and essentially lead him to find the answers, while he didn't really do much himself except for telling the story, which Ougi probably knew from the start. (S)he might call it sleuthing, but it was nothing of that sort, in reality. I like how Araragi was staring at Hanekawa's legs while she was going up the stairs. I don't really blame him though.. :3  |

Vindstot said: I like how Araragi was staring at Hanekawa's legs while she was going up the stairs. I don't really blame him though.. :3 Araragi is man that know what he likes. I neither blame him. That endcard is cute, btw. |
|
| he is just forget like that? even when you get older, you won't forget the face of person who help you for long.what a clueless person. well i know he's a child when that happened. and i know, oikura is the one at fault too. for say something like she doesn't need anything in return. or she wasn't say anything to araragi like, this is my room or this is my home. ugh point minus for araragi in my eyes. duh he should be able to apologize before mathematic meeting if he remember... |
| Amazing as usual. We're finally getting to know more and more about Koyomi. So awesome to see. Shota Araragi so cute <3 Ougi's manga acting for Oikura was so lol Friggin loved the "Then that bit is how much I will love u" Ougi's just too friggin <3 Really interested about Oikura now. Still think she's a bitch but if she really was abused as a child then that sucks :( But really if u think about it we've been having around 2 hrs now of mainly Ougi and Koyomi talking and it just doesn't stop being epic. Shor hair Hanekawa is <3 |
 |
| Awesome episode, I really liked this one, even visuals were like in older monogatari series. 64SuperNintendo said: Another week, another episode's worth of TALKING. 2/5 Say what?! xD This is your first Monogatari arc? You really should stop watching it. |

| seems that Hanekawa is mad because Ougi solved the problem and she not |
