I've wanted to watch this show for a while and I'm thinking of starting it. I've also heard a lot of people comparing it to the Monogatari series. Now, I've watched like 4 episodes of Bakemonogatari, which was enough for me to realize that the series is not for me. I liked the dialog and the characters, but I just hated everything else, like 99% of the episode being dialog that you need to pay extreme attention to, as well as the fact that I didn't understand what was going on. I can understand why people like it, it's just not my thing. Is Bunny Girl Senpai the same, or do people compare these 2 series just for the characters and dialog? Cuz if the ladder is the case, then I'll give it a shot, but if it's the former, I'll just delete it from my list.

Bunny Girl Senpai is also a little confusing as the strange phenomenons that happen don’t really get explained. It’s not as dialogue heavy as Monogatari but it is still more than most. Just give the first 3 episodes a go as that is the first arc of the show

Bunny girl senpai felt completely different to monogatari. So u might be able to like bunny girl senpai. Either way I liked both anime very much. Monogatari series is a masterpiece but isn't for everyone. I can understand why it's hard for people to get into it .

I think you might enjoy Bunny Girl Senpai. It's not really confusing. Also the animation is pretty good and the characters are memorable. I have no idea why people are even comparing it to Bakemonogatari and I've seen both shows.

Only thing there thats worth watching is Shinobu and sure Bunny girl senpai isn't the best but at least I dont have to watch a low self-esteem loser like Araragi walk around professing his love for a women who will give him crabs while constantly cheating on her when she can't see with other girls

Its not as dialogue heavy as Monogatari is, theres a chance you may like it, I'd say give the first couple episodes a shot and see if its your cup of tea, theres nothing wrong with dropping anime

It's definitely not monogatari, if you talking about the dialogue similarities. Not liking monogatari is easy, but not liking Bunny girl is a hader task. Give it a try.

Both shows are amazing. The thing is... Monogatari series is at least 20 times better, and since you just admitted you're 10 then I understand why you think it's boring. You need to be at least 20% mature to understand it❤️

This is still in my PTW list, but about what you said about Bakemonogatari: Dude even I thought that this show wasn't for me but I still continued watching it, and the show becomes good after 8 or 9 episodes and I really liked it. So you may want to continue watching Bakemonogatari.

I haven't watch monogatari yet but based from what I've read from multiple sources, it is somewhat like a lite version of it. I'd say give the first 3 episodes a shot not because of the infamous 3 episode rule but because if you hate the first 3 episodes then you won't like the rest of it.

I can't be the only one who finds the animation of Monogatari awful, with the weird neck contortions and the completely empty world. Do you like the animation?

It’s pretty different, the animation, the jokes, the couple. The only similar themes is that they have themes that you have to figure out the meaning. I’m pretty sure you’ll like it if Monogatari wasn’t for you
The right mindset when watching an anime is hoping that it will break your top 10

Simple. Just give it a try. Youll be hooked in the first 15 minutes. Also these 2 anime are not alike at all. Mono you need full attention to watch. While bunny girl you can watch brainlessly and still enjoy. Its not complicated till the movie.

Aobuta is better than monogatari. And even if you didn't like it, at least you won't watch it for nothing since 99% of monogatari dialog are meaningless which is not the case with Aobuta.

pretty sure dialogues in monogatari series almost always have some meaning, especially if you know japanese, but even if you don't, they deliver a lot of hidden messages. Paying attention is the key to understanding it. I know I already look like a Monogatari fanboy because I am one, but that thing I just said is definitely true as many people also probably say

Bunny Girl Senpai is superficially similar to Monogatari in terms of premise, but the characters are a lot more grounded, and Sakuta is fundamentally a more likable lead than Koyomi Araragi. oh, and Mai is literally one of the best female leads in any romantic anime ever, and the romcom banter between her and Sakuta is amazing.

Oh thats not my point as to why Monogatari is boring
I find it boring because I just dont care about any of the characters or the plot except Shinobu because I have a Vampire fetish but even as a character she is boring and its the only appeal about her for me
All that stuff about Araragi was just to highlight that Sakuta in Bunny Girl isn't a loser who falls in love with another loser but constantly cheats on his GF so Bunny Girl much more appealing in that aspect in my opinion even if its not as good as Clannad or Kanon for example which I mention before

Yeah I don't even know how to answer to that. I understand you might find it boring but why tf would you hate on it so much and shit on Araragi without any normal reason? I liked Sakuta very much. I liked Araragi 30 times more than Sakuta and you are just the oposite. I don't keep talking shit about characters you like when it's not even the topic of the conversation. Also saying that characters are not all that when you don't even try to understand why they are called by many 'one of the best written characters in anime' doesn't make sense to me either

My reason pretty normal honestly since most people dont like or care for people who cheat on their GFs


or do people all of a sudden no longer hate on Makoto from School Days for that very reason?

last I checked this thread was about Monogatari in relation to Bunny Girl so comparing the MCs seems fair game to me honestly

Caring about majority opinion for the character writing I honestly want to say is a argument from popularity which is a fallacy

I know some people might not accept it, but Araragi never cheated on Senjogahara. One thing is fooling around with a girl and the other is dating someone else while also dating your girlfriend. Also notice that Araragi never agreed to do more than this 'fooling around' thing with another girl and Senjogahara was always the most important for him.
Our opinions might be different so I don't expect you to suddenly change your mind but try to get what my point is.

Yeah comparing Mcs is fair here but why would you do that while discussing with me? You could mention a few differences between them so the OP knows what it will be like, but you decided to use only the bad traits of Araragi in order to defend your opinion. I don't think that could in any way help the OP
