Excellent episode we even got one quite detailed lesson about red traffics light, Ononoki is back and she got quite the persona once more XD.
So new arc start with some freakin' time travel so Koyomi can do is homework ( can't go wrong) sorry about that it did go wrong ;p and so the ending was quite Epic for the start of this new arc.

No OP?

I really didn't know that Shinobu this talkative (She's not in Bakemonogatari.. right?)
Nobuemon xD

So, it's 11 years ago?
And it's Type A (The traveler exists) or Type B (The traveler become the person exists in that timeline)??

Hum, Shinobu, I think you got the wrong date... xD
But damn, she's cute.

11 years before huh? So I guess we will see Hachikuji before her accident. That's interresting. Could he prevent it? I hope not, I love our little loli Hachikuji :P

I don't remember that girl we saw in the beginning... Is she a new character or she was already introduced?

Ononoki changed a lot o.O
Like her new personnality though :)

That Description about Traffic light intersection was a good Reality-like reasoning of the principles of life!!...
The "World" was never been Good to all anyway...
The "World" is so cruel as you seen nowadays...
"But the 15 year old girl named Ougi Oshino turns such stories into a massive tales of life and principles" -Koyomi Araragi ... I was amazed on how she turn such stories into a "conjunction" that leads to the specific principles of all people that is living in this cruel "World".
Ononoki and koyomi conversation was funny in some ways !!
When In a near vision of Ononoki, She looks so kawaii !! Damn!!
Well.. What do you know.. Time-Travelling exists on this anime !!
Wait .. Did She said alternate dimension!! ... not past or something!? well.. anyway they're going to the past where they will save mayoi.. and change everything in that dimension!!
Time Paradox!! sounds interesting!!
so you're saying that the past of you and the present change places!? no , I think not... because You're not on the whole arc of tsubasa tiger!! (though he has some minor cameo on some conversations on the arc...)
That Ending... When you have know that this is not yesterday but 11 years prior to the present!!
Good Episode!!!
Spoilers -down-
Note : Ohh.. If you guys don't know... This Arc began on the Start of the first arc of the first episode of : Tsubasa Tiger. Its the one on Mayoi looking for Koyomi for her bag..
so its before episode 5 and not after it .
Conclusion , The Whole arc of : Mayoi Jiangshi and Shinobu Time... Happened on the whole timeline of the arcs : Tsubasa Tiger ( I think some battles happened...)Those ripped off clothes from episode 5!! and its the shirt he wore during his expeditions on the past and present altogether!!.

This arc is quite interesting. I don't know what they are planning to do now that they have recklessly stumbled back to the past. What looked like a joke has gone ridiculously out of proportion.

Thats what i was thinking. Cause WAY back when, he gave a little foreshadowing that something was going to happen to her, but then followed it up with "JK, i have no idea whats going to happen"

Frankly, the narrative has me a bit puzzled, not making me understand what was happening.
Plot that begins a new arc, but of what they want to talk about is still all wrapped in shadow.
The first character is shown, frankly I do not remember having ever seen.
Drawings as very good quality, redundant dialogues but also fascinating in the way they expose the concepts.

LET"S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN! ep 7.

PLot: while trying to return Hachikuji's backpack, Koyomi runs into Yotsugi, They talk abit about death and the three strange cases between them and Hachikuji. Later, Koyomi learns he forgot to do his homework (So its not just Kyon that forgets) and ask Shinobu to help him go back in time a day to finish it. She does but takes them back 11 years. Whoops.

Character: I wasn't expecting Yotsugi to be back but I kinda miss her posed look. The fact that she's technically a zombie/frankenstein is neat.

Shinobu harnessing the Oddity energy for time travel was awesome. And hilarious when she overshoots and Koyomi questions her on it. That moment of silence over the paradox was hilarious. Though that bit on using less energy to travel forward does sound good. Imma use that someday.

Animation/sound: Nothing to report.

4/5. Dang good start but a bit slow in the beginning.

Interesting opening speech and another new character introduced (and with another great seiyuu, the one best known for her roles Mami(Madoka), Miyako(Hidamari) and Michiru(Grisaia) ). I wonder, is Ougi somehow related to Meme?

And even Yotsugi reappeared this time. Interesting concept she has though. To be dead and brought back to life as discarded object that's not your usual character in any anime.

And if Mayoi died some 10 years ago, does that mean she is technically older than everyone? Does that also mean she can be brought back to life as Yotsugi?

And Shinobu.. I really have guessed they jumped all those 10 years back to where Hachikuji was still alive. Now I presume they'll save her but the problem is that... maybe she didn't want to be saved?
Cause the girl that was shown for a sec in the beginning of the ep was surely ~20 years old Mayoi.

Have to say this is already pretty interesting premise as to what he can possible do to his future.
Can't wait what their adventures in the past will be. Cause this is possibly the past where Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade is still at full strength in the first place.

I didn't understand something in this episode. The prologue with Ougi takes place after the events of Mayoi Jiangshi ? What we see in Mayoi Jiangshi and Shinobu Time is just what Araragi recalls after his conversation with Ougi about the traffic light ?

ooh, this seems like the beginning of a super interesting arc.
It also seems to be giving Shinobu some spotlight so that can only be a good thing.

Turns out they somehow ended up 11 years into the past, and given that that's before Hachikuji even died, I think Araragi might try to stop her from dying all those years ago.

Ofc that can only end badly -_-

Ougi seems pretty interesting as well. Gotta see more of her (?) so I can gauge a little more though!

Holy crap. We met a new character and she's gorgeous. I mean I've been seeing her face everywhere even before I started watching Monogatari series. I thought she's my fave character design out of Monogatari series since she looks terrifying and I really find her beautiful. So, her name is Ougi? Waaaah. Omfg. I'm so happy seeing and hearing her. She's so gorgeous. Help.

Ugh. I missed Mayoi. ;-; I missed her screaming when Araragi's molesting her. Lmfao.

"Devilish big brother". Haha. Welcome back, Ononoki-chan. I said with a posed look. Hahaha. She stopped saying it now. Haha. I guess we have things we really regret and that's one thing she regrets. Apparently, she was revived by her big sister. She's obviously terrified of Shinobu after their fight in Nise. Pffft. Cutie. All their talk about Mayoi hurts me, idk. :/

SHINOBUUUUUUUUUU, OKAERI! "Nobuemon". Araragi, you became Choromatsu! Hahahaha. Holy shit. Who would've thought Kamiyan will play Choromatsu in the future which is a parody of Dorameon, I guess. Haha.

Holy shit. Shinobu can really time-travel, huh? And somehow she messed up, and her and Araragi went back to the past which is 11 years ago? Holy shit, Shinobu. Hahahahahaha. It should be yesterday. She fucked up. Ohmygod. Hahahahaha.

See I was under the impression Shinobu controlled the time, but I'm a few minutes into episode 8 and it seems Araragi controlled it, which is interesting

We're introduced to Ougi without much of an introduction at all haha. She calls Araragi "senpai" and has the surname Oshino. Hmm. She also has no pupils. Spooky :P

The conversation with Ononoki was interesting. If Ononoki is a Tsukumo-gami, does she remember her life before she died, or is she a completely different being that sorta possessed the corpse? But anyways, she points out that all three: herself, Araragi, and Hachikuji, have died but are conscious after death in different ways. I wonder if Hachikuji really is okay with staying "dead."

It seemed like Shinobu just wanted to do something fun and didn't think too much about the consequences of time travel at all hahaha. A bit random, but I really liked the mouth movement animation when Shinobu was chanting so I made a gif :)

Ooooh, we finally meet Ougai. I read about her in the Owarimonogatari synopses. I never thought about that three-second delay. That's interesting. Was that an adult Hachikuji? I kinda liked Ononoki's posed looks. I hope they make a return. It was funny how she describes that as a dark page in her life. Is there no shopkeeper for this ice cream shop? They can just take as much ice cream as they want? Why don't we have those in the States? I guess we don't need MORE calories. Does that mean Ononoki already lived for over 100 years before dying and being resurrected? Ononoki is asking some pretty interesting questions. Shinobu is way cuter than she deserves to be. Of course Araragi forgot his homework. I love how casually Shinobu says something along the lines of "Yeah, time travel is EZ CLAP." She sounds like she's casting a spell like the idiots from Rising of the Shield Hero. Eww, Araragi wears his watch on his dominant hand. Disgusting. I love how they acknowledge how confusing and paradoxical time travel. Those uniforms look really old... and they time traveled backward 11 years. Dumbasses.

Time traveling, huh, and 11 years back at that. We're probably going to get a lot of backstory concerning Hachikuji.
