Drawing four versions of your past selves to make them come to life and help you out, what could possibly go wrong? I am curious to see Nadeko's character development through how she will deal with her past selves.

Tsukihi, Nadeko and Yotsugi. No offence, but these are probably among the weakest characters in the whole series. And I really mean it with the "no offence" because these two episodes were crazy good.

Damn I missed this anime, everything from writing to characters to direction to dialogue to mood to ost to visuals is fucking gold.

Our favorite corpse came up with a terrible idea for Sengoku to fulfill the 10,000 hour rule to complete her work in 1 year Make four copies of herself to help her as assistants Instead they all ran off

Its so nice to see the long dialogue scenes between characters come back! It felt like that was missing in the last episode. Storyboarding was amazing and I'm so glad to see Ougi back. Also loved the Mousou Express/Renai Circulation instrumental track we got 2/3 into the episode!

The most INSANE premise of an arc in all of Monogatari in all honesty, like having to confronts FOUR of your past selves during the entire story as clones is genuinely one of the most astonishing premise I've ever seen and it makes me genuinely scream from joy.

THE ACTUALLY PUT THE FUCKING RENAI CIRCULATION BASSLINE WHEN SHE WAS DRAWING HER 4 SELVES, AAAAHHHH KOUSAKI SATORU YOU GENIUS OF A MAN !

it so hard watching this show because I want to be able to binge it since one episode a week kills me but at the same time I can’t stop myself from watching them as they air; truly first world problems

I’m just glad this arc seems like it will be mainly about Nadeko because she might be my favorite character in this show besides Araragi

As always Monogatari is PRIME fiction!
Glad to see again Nadeko.
Her plot is interesting.
With her 4 other self,we can have great reflexioons about the "me"
Also,Mono direction is always the best!
It's a true happu to see how Shaft just serves us the god tier quality that we was used to even if he has big changements internally (the studio).

Huh kinda surprised there wasn't an opening, i was half expecting after ep1 they'd start doing the traditional custom openings for each characters sung by their VA's but maybe next episode copium?

Wait this Nadeko arc low-key cooking into something fire. I honestly think Nadeko imo has had some of the most interesting character developments and arcs in this series, so an arc that focuses on a current day Nadeko facing her very different past selves sounds amazing in general and maybe as a way to tie her story up for the time being.

Looks like we'll definitely be getting a lot of self reflection from her current self on the why's of some of her actions and her mindsets at the time which are going to be interesting af, seeing each personalities interactions to one another also sounds really funny, like Timid Nadeko interacting with Wrath sounds like one party cringing at the other, or i could imagine Flirt and Snake God both shaking hands over how much they love Araragi.
Also interested to see more of her present personality, this ep already seemed to spell out a lot about her current mindset like she isn't completely happy with everything around her but has found more inner peace and balance within herself.

Yeah looking back on it now, her characters and personalities varied so differently from one another yet still managed to make somewhat coherent sense plot and character wise. The one's i'm most looking forward to her seeing again would probably be Wrath because i kinda wanna know how her current self would look back on her outburst at that point of the story, and Snake God because it was probably her lowest point and point of almost complete insanity, but also because Snake God had the most unhinged and goofy personality out of all 5 and probably also my favourite.

The remixed renai circulation and Mousou Express were very much welcomed, such iconic tracks, also another reason i was kinda looking forward to and OP theme this ep so to see if they could make a likewise iconic successor.

To the Novel readers

1. Did the first episode adapted the entire Orokamonogatari ?
2. Are they adapting Nademonogatari before Wazamonogatari ?
3. In which Arc do we see Shinobu ?

No spoilers pls
@3033

1 is already answered but yes Sodachi Fiasco and Suruga Bonehead are skipped.

2. Yes. We are currently on Nadeko Draw which is Nademonogatari (there's only 1 arc in Nademonogatari).

3. The immediate next arc (which is the first arc of Wazamonogatari) according the official website, + and also the one after (Shinobumonogatari).

the goat is here, I been waiting to get a nadeko arc for a minute her conclusion in season two was perfect made her top 3 mono characters personally for me. I lowkey got scared with the ending why the school, If I did something like her kicking the door out and screaming at her classmates I wouldn't step foot so the fact she even went there shows she grew as a character fr.(not being a shutin) but she kinda has to tho.

I wasn't very convinced by the first episode but the second was a lot stronger and more interesting in my opinion.

Of course making four copies of different Nadekos would be a bad idea, especially the one with the snake hair. That "Renai Circulation" music while she draws herself was great though. And that Pokemon reference caught me off guard xD

This turned very fun! Four different Nadeko versions, and they all ran away! This arc seems fun. I'm wondering if that KamiNadeko has all the snake god's traits.

Are all the voices going to have this computery echo?

This literally looks like a bunch of random videos someone threw together with AI. There is no dialogue, it's just half an hour of rambling schizophrenic drivel

Crazy, but funny situation. I'm enjoying this. Wouldn't god Nadeko want to kill Araragi? If so, then she's in a real pickle.

Whats better than 1 Nadeko ; 5 Nadeko.
Ononoki is really being incompetent this season huh. But good to see her helping Nadeko out with her mangas. It's tough being her. She is trying hard but can't blame her parents. I really hope she becomes successful.

Man, Ononoki trying to help someone continues to proof herself a menace. She has a knack for making a bad situation worse. ^^

Besides that - this was an episode with quite a few references to anime and other things again - like the Glass Mask, Pokemon and Black Jack references.
