| 10/10 for the Shinobu x Kanbaru dialogue |
 |
| Nice exchange between the two, would've preferred a different character under Shinobu, don't think Kanbaru's relationship with Araragi was deep enough for such an exchange. |

| is it only me or everyone thought the first one looked like a girl? Great buildup for last episode btw. and Kanbaru...... My god, i didn't expect her to be that smart at talking. She really did it, STARIGHT TO THE POINT!!!. best episode to me. first time i saw Shinobu got scolded like that. And i kinda like this arc because they are talking about their relation ship. GOOD JOB KANBARU!!! :D |
 |
| Kanbaru confronting Shinobu but she does kinda have a point |
 |
| Like some MAL user already have pointed… Kanbaru have experience in this matter (Love triangle {Kanbaru & Senjougahara & Araragi} fighting Araragi then accepting that Senjougahara love him and the love that Senjougahara felt for her was not that kind of love) so she is more than qualified to make that argument against Shinobu… The other that comes to mind is Tsubasa. I don’t know if Kanbaru did the right thing because of Shinobu’s statement that the meeting with the first could have multiple outcomes ranging from bad to worst but I think what Kanbaru told her was true, she needed to face the consequences herself not let all the work to Araragi because is Shinobu who needs to move forward to get some closure and the only way to move forward is to face the problems that present to her directly by her… |

EmptySkyForm said: Hopefully the next episode is an actual fight, and not just araragi getting his ass beat. Their is no way in hell they are going to have a straight up fight.. Araragi's bond is broken with Shinobu atm and that drink he was about to drink would have killed him. Someone is probably gonna intervene in the fight or they'll go about it in a different way. |
| Pretty bland episode, I didn't enjoy it too much. The Shinobu and Kanbaru dialogue wasn't very interesting, and I thought the confrontation with Araragi in the bookstore would of led to something greater. This has definitely been my least favorite arc of this season. |
 |
| Yaaay, Episode's back... wait... who's that guy again? I seriously need to rewatch whole thing... As for my comment... there's nothing to comment, as others have said it everything already. I loved the discussions, I loved the comedy, and I laughed when Shinobu went to sleep pouting after losing. Next week finale, eh? And after that waiting for Kizumonogatari and Koyomimonogatari... ugh... |
astroprogs said: If HF ended up being a single movie, what would it need to do so it can get a high score from all of you? Not air. |
| I don't think most people realize how deep was the Kanbaru-Shinobu scene. It started just with Shinobu being stubborn and childish as always, then you can see her break down slowly while trying to hold onto her pride. |
| Overall it was a nice episode. 9/10 - The comedy was well-timed. - Great to see Episode-san come back (and read the BL novel with his face on the cover) - The music that played while Araragi was chatting with Kanbaru was amazing. - Nice to see the interaction between Kanbaru and Shinobu. It was a bit over-dramatic in my opinion, but it revealed a lot about the strong views and feelings that Kanbaru and Shinobu had. - When the first one said, "after all these 400 years, I want to sparkle one more time." The first thing that came to mind was this XD |
| I would keep it short... The Shinobu x Kanbaru conversation made this episode the best so far in Shinobu Mail arc... 5/5 Waiting curiously for the final episode of this arc :) EDIT: kirby said: I don't think most people realize how deep was the Kanbaru-Shinobu scene. It started just with Shinobu being stubborn and childish as always, then you can see her break down slowly while trying to hold onto her pride. Agreed, I realized that hence my short comment. This is why I'm waiting curiously for next episode. Obviously there would be a fight, but not physical fight but more of an emotional I suppose... |

| Intense dialogue, 10/10 |
| You will soon learn that a heart that choose to exist, even in a life filled with pain, will one day allow us to meet again. With the world's blessings, we will meet again and again, forever returning to the homeworld we've yet to see. Many, many times.  |
| One of the more memorable dialogue's in recent memory. You'd never think they would click in such a way outside of Kanbaru's pervy cracks and Shinbou's playful, but sometimes forceful, nature. The whole youth vs elderly / brazen simplicity vs bashful loner works well. An enjoyable and unexpected pairing. |
| Good episode. Really enjoyed the Kanbaru and Shinobu scene. I have no idea who that Episode guy is, though. Have we seen him before? |
Mormegil said: I have no idea who that Episode guy is, though. Have we seen him before? He appears in the Second Season, in the first arc, in the 4th episode (I think). |
 |
| The conversation is soooooo epic Please Araragi, keep Yotsugi :D |

| Kanbaru has a lot of balls standing up to Shinobu like that.... She could've easily killed her. |
| diy smh tbh fam |
 |
| Kanbaru obliterated Shinobu in one on one word match! 5/5. |
 |
| Great conversation and very interesting plot. I see that Kanbaru is still teasing Arargi as always. That conversation between Shinbou and Kanbaru were great. Kanbaru owned her and she couldn't admit her defeat. LOL. This vampire is really scary. Kanbaru have balls to go against her. I think next ep. will have more action if it's gonna be duel. I wonder if we could see something intense like we saw in Bakemonogatari in Suruga Monkey arc. That were great. |
 |
| Really great episode! Looking forward to see what the last episode will offer us of this season! |
 |
| Crazy good episode, the Kanbaru/Shinobu conversation was really emotional and struck a chord with me. Very well done and very well animated. Off to watch the last episode now. Also lol @ Ononoki's "mark" |
 |
| That "conversation" lasted like 10 minutes. |
  |
| Well. Kanbaru just dropped a few places as favorite character. The thing that annoyed me the most about that part of the episode was that she was talking on the assumption Shinobu would make more minions afterwards. As far as I remember she didn't even want the first one at first and I don't know the reason behind Araragi yet (didn't read the source and as we know the movies are still on the way) but considering it took a few hundred more years I doubt it was out of desire for a minion. Anyway. As we are close to the end I really was wondering what was up with that one guy we got a short introduction in second season. Turns out Episode actually got more screen-time. I expected his "next" appearance in Kizu tbh. |
| Araragi not knowing what "amends" means :D Kanbaru really got to Shinobu. Duel should be good, lets see how well Araragi will hold up in his human form. |
 |
| Kanbaru is getting annoying.. |
 |
| Solid episode. Great development with Shinobu. Interesting exchange of dialogues. And Kanbaru, why you so good. |
 |
| Damn awesome dialogue between Kanbaru and Shinobu!!!!!!! 5/5 |
 |
| Forget everything else. Shinobu v. Kanbaru was what made this ep. 5/5. |
 I go where I wanna go, even if its into Oppai. |
| Spoken like a true cuck |
 |
| "It was worth being stomped on by a little girl." Not even a minute in and this episode made my day. |
| Kanbaru 1 Shinobu 0. |
 |
| Loved Kanbaru's teasing in the end again. Though I don't fully agree with what she said to Shinobu, despite being best girl. |
| At first I thought it was some yuri action at first but looks like Shinobu and Kanbaru are gonna the best of friends. DYB > DIY. lol. |
| I don't understand why people liked the argument between Kanbaru and Shinobu saying it was "deep" and things along those lines. It was 99% of Shinobu giving valid reasons to not see her first kin and 1% of Kanbaru just saying "logic doesn't matter" with no other reasoning, and somehow it's "deep" and "great." Kanbaru repeating the same stupid phrase was enough to make me dislike her completely, as someone who liked Kanbaru, it was completely out of character and was just painful to listen to. Guess she goes in the bin next to Hanekawa and Ougi. Otherwise this season up till now was great, and Sodachi arcs didn't make my ears bleed. |
| ayee really nice eps here kanbaru the MVP this episode that knowledgeable advice to shinobu bae was intense thought she was about to snap any minute lol but kudos to her |
| First and Araragi talked and yeah he wants his sword back. And like telling Araragi that you want to get along with Shinobu again is gonna make him let you see her. Lmfao. He wants to kill her that I know. When he desribed Shinobu back then as someone who's so beautiful that I agree. Haha. Gaen and Episode appeared, and freaking Araragi almost drank that poison in the bottle First gave him. What a fool. Pffft. Gaen and Episode reading the BL and that lewd magazine. Hahahahaha I can't. Apparently, Ononoki leaving a mark on Araragi's face by stepping on it was to ensure his safety, hence First can't hurt him. Thank you, Ononoki-chan. Hihi. Now First asked Araragi to have a duel. Jesus. Kanbaru and Shinobu had an argument since Kanbaru is convincing Shinobu to see the First and she has a lot of good points. I don't understand why Shinobu is so scared (or not) of the First when she's like the most powerful apparition and he's just a minion of hers. Shinobu was convinced I think and withdrawn herself inside the shrine. Hihi. I just heard Miyukichi's lewd "AAH". Hahaha. LIFE IS MADE. Haha jk. Goddamnit Araragi why would you refuse to feed Kanbaru while reading her BL novel and to put on her bra? Jeez. That's your most prized moment as a pervert, maaan. Hahaha! So, he yeah he still managed to buy her a bra. That bravery, maaan. Hahaha! |

| i was reading some comments baste on that Hitagi x Araragi is a fake relationship cause Arargi really loves Shinobu & eventually they will be together read this below https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1469006 final post with a lot of spoiler tags, he explains a lot about their relationship but it mite be just hes opinion, but he has some good points & Arargi seems to loves Shinobu & she him, bu he also loves Hitagi |

| amazing episode. It managed to build up both kanbarus and shinobus characters and relations even more. Shinobu on screen is always quality time after all. PS: Can we officially change "production quality" into "shaft"? This was flawless. PPS: ANybody noticed how Episode was reading the BL novel with him and kaiki on the cover? nice detail |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
Biasa said: The episode is basic dialog because dialog bla bla bla 2/5 dont respond this i not trolling ...I think you're watching Monogatari... |
"No matter where you go, everyone's connected." Iwakura, Lain. |
| That Kanbaru vs Shinobu conversation was INTENSE, and man do I hope this upcoming duel is badass, I'm looking forward to see how Araragi defeats his foe |
| “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 |
| I still don't get about the 'mark' thing. Is he worried that he will be hunted by the specialist in return? Holy water seems the only thing that will byapss the Vampire's immortality. |
