THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Damn, most of the episode was recap/complication. I remember this from Nekomonogatari: Kuro. Dat Tsubasa. The word plays are still great though and this bought me back nostologia. Tsubasa as a cat sure is badass. Araragi-kun too of course ~

Oh and seeing Shinobu in this episode also bought me a big smile to my face.

Dammit, so this isn't treated as a special but an actual episode? that's sucks, a precious episode was just wasted and other arcs will suffer :/

It was a recap ep, which refreshed my memory. Overall the art is very impressive and effective. Without the fabulous art, all the series would not have been so interesting. Good job, Shaft.

Clearly you did not watch the last episode till the end when they announced it will be a summary episode. So I guess it should not be ep.6 then?? I wonder why you did not start another thread for special episode but had to use ep.6.

Anyway, as a recap it is interesting to see how much Bake and NekoKuro they included.

Apparently there will be MORE summary/recap episodes. Perhaps even one per arc, so be prepared.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

This better not whittle down the amount of actual plot episodes to 20 instead of 26...

Kinda disappointing they used a whole episode for a recap episode.
But it was a solid recap/refresher episode so it wasn't that bad to watch.
Almost forgot how bad Araragi got destroyed in Neko haha
ITAAAIIIIIIII!!


It was nice seeing Shinobu, but I really wanna see her in a new episode this season.
Hopefully it won't take too long to get a scene with her.

At least it looks like this should be the only recap, so that each arc lasts 5 episodes each.

Anyways, where the hell are my subs?

Man, was so looking forward to seeing Senjou and Araragi conversations again, episode really just put me in a bad mood, a complete waste of a full episode to do things with.
Still, Hanekawa lookin' good in that underwear, wow.

I don't think every arc will have a recap because this wasn't a Neko (Shiro) recap but a Neko (Kuro) one. Still, it was nice to see.

Definitely, Kamiya Hiroshi does the best narrations!

Straight from Tokyo MX. It is being counted as episode 6... but on the official website, it is being counted as summary/recap episode 1. Not entirely sure what the numbering is now.

I doubt they're doing a recap for every single arc. This recap was more of Hanekawa overall not just Neko Shiro. She's arguably the biggest(well more like longest?) character in the monogatari world having 3 arcs and being a major part in Kizumonogatari.

Shiro + recap-6 eps
Kabuki-3-4 eps?
Hana-3-4 eps?
Otori-3-4 eps?
Koi-3-4 eps?
Oni-3-4 eps?

Guys do you think a 30+ chapter arc would fit in 3-4 eps? cause if it does not this episode would be a fuckin waste

So we got a recap episode of Nekomonogatari which in itself was a recap of exposition we got in the first series? Coming immediately after another Neko story? Talk about burning your fans out on a character.

Well I didn't find it that bad... kinda disappointing because I didn't know that this week there would be a recap but at least they included some new images from Kizumonogatari and some of the conversations on the recap were 'new'.

The as of yet released subs are terrible by the way, tbh it's the only thing that made me actually dislike the episode.
