THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
What a start this was. Great way to open up Tskimonogatari with Shinobu. I don't mind the way the narration was done but it was fantastic seeing this again. I like how the episode depicted some foreshadowing as well with the talk about humans as usual. Cryptic or not, the dialogues imo was were very well done. Strong start so far. The fan service made me giggle a bit.

Also lovely theme song.

I have no problem with episode 1 but starting episode 2, some stuff were rushed.
No?

But all the fabulous poses of Ononoki seems to invalidate my first judgement of the adaptation.

i don't think its rushed but when u get further in the episodes u'll realize why the pace is picking up as it is. I don't wanna spoil to much but…nvm i won't say nothing at all until u finish it. But when u do you will see why the "pacing" is being portrayed this way.

Rushed as they keep cutting best conversation in the book.
But still not point of the arc though, so I can still tolerate with it.
And yeah, I am not talking about the pacing, at all. Just the content.

Not a huge ecchi/fan service fan (whoa), but this episode was too damn hilarious. I lost my shit multiple times. Hopefully this won't be like Nise with the fan service tho..

edit: meh fuck it, great series even with fan service

I said it once and I will say it again. Araragi is a perverted dumass.

Great first episode. Shinobu speech had to be the best part for me. Ononoki in those costume were also great. Once again Araragi is at it again with his sisters, but this time it's Tsukihi. The bath scene gets hot in more ways then one. A lot of fanservice, but still has a message in there. I would love to wash Tsukihi body. The ending was unexpected. Araragi has no reflection? Does this mean his vampire powers are coming back. Can't wait for next episode.

5/5.

I'm loving the start so far, especially with Shinobu in the beginning. Not to mention Araragi doing the platinum disco was hilarious.

I don't mind me some Tsukihi-service.

I miss this so much :D All Dem Wincest interactions :3 Dat Imouto Fanservice <3

Licking Karen's feet Maybe...yeah right :P

Loved Shinobu's monologue at the start. Miss her blabbering XD

Koyomi asking his sisters if their ready to give him choco the nxt day was lol as usual. I miss this guy so much XD And his narcissistic personality thinking Karen is almost as talented as he is :P

Dat Koyomi Platinum dance lol

And Dat Tsukihi ASS and body *A* She's grown quite a bit :3

Koyomi showing off his 8 packs and Tsukihi totally tsundere-ly wanting to touch them since she was staring XD

Man he was just rubbing and washing every single nook in her body :O Lucky Bastard! Nice timing Karen :/ He was really going for the kiss XD

Interesting to see he's not reflected on the mirror :3

I didn't get the ending. Was he supposed to not be a vampire anymore? I thought he was still a vampire, just not a complete one, but he seemed really shocked...

Anyway, gotta love Koyomi reaction when Tsukihi covered herself with soap. I'm offended, must throw water! Clearly not to remove that soap!

It's always weird how Monogatari arc usually focus on one characters, but always one or more episodes that are clearly not on that character.

You are that confused cause they still didnt adapt Kizu...Araragi became "Mostly" human,he is just a normal human with a supernatural regenerative power...So yeah,not having reflection is a pretty big deal,it means he becomes more vampire than human...
