Kurogashi said: You should rage at Hanekawa. I am still WTF at how Hitagi got so submissive towards her. I don't understand how all of that happened. WTF does Hanekawa know of Hitagi to submit to her?Kah, kah. Still sad that our Princess is going to cut her hair any day now. RAGE! Don't tell me she is going to cut her hair for real and Araragi will not stop her? OMG I hear Rage of this, although I am open to see her new looks. Remains to see if it goes well on Hitagi or not. It was not a bad style for Hanekawa. |
| I am ... unable ... to find ... a ... voice inside of me ... to respond to this episode. It's like I'm falling in love all over again. Oh boy, doushio? EDIT: A (little) spoiler about Gahara hair. |

  |
| Another great episode. I really like the part where she admits to being bullied by Hanekawa. Her expression was priceless. |
 |
| How can Shinobu not be voiced by Koishimizu Ami? Sakamoto channels Holo so perfectly I simply can't believe it. Is it intentional? I doubt it, but everytime Shinobu's on screen it makes me want to marathon Spice and Wolf again. Nisio. Call me. I will give you my credit card information and you can has all my money now. |
 |
| Yes. Sadly. Booo! He's still my favorite male but his preferences really made me mad. |

| Great episode,each one of the conversation was great. Kind funny how Mayoi likes getting sexually harass but ya...if he doesnt harass her is no Araragi :) Gahara again awesome as always her tsundereness is great and i love how many pencils she made. Seeing Shinobu again was nice and another tsundere!! even so i also want my own Loli Vampire servant :( Next episode we are probably get some action and maybe will be the end of this arc so we can begin with the smaller sister!!! |
| Let's see, what are the factors that make this episode a 5/5... - Mayoi returning - Awesome Detective Conan reference - Gahara-san calling Hanekawa-sama her 'master' - Pencils - Arararagi declaring her love towards Gahara-san and swearing to protect her - Shinobu's white dress! BTW, if this arc will end at Ep 7, then doesn't this make Tsuhixi Phoenix only 4 episodes long? I wonder how can they put all those stuff inside. |
| Just one quick question: how is it possible that Shinobu casts a shadow? |
 |
| That was kinda freaky when Mayoi displayed some poltergeist powers when she picked up the glass bottle |
| 5/5 Really can't say anything but praise for this show in many ways it's surpassing Bakemonogatari, depending on how it they end the show it could get my 5th 10... |
| Awesome episode, as always. |
| Nice episode, and Conan reference :D |
| All dem Hitagi poses. I highly approve. Lol at the FFXII save point too. |
 |
| Soo many tsundere~! :D |
| Great episode. I would give my left nut to see a kissing seen between Araragi and Senjougahara. I totally thought we would see one at the end of episode 12 of Bakemonogatari but nooooo... |
 |
| wow I guess Hachikuji likes the harassment |
| This is a pretty long arc O.o I mean it's taking up over half of the series already. I am loving Shinobu even more, and Gahara-san's unlimited school tools is back? |
| "Justice Never Dies!" - Kenji Endou, 20th century Boys |
| I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SHINOBU. The conversations Araragi has with her is always entertaining. She is so damn cute, too. |
  |
| Senjougahara Hitagi fascinates me more and more. Talking trash to Araragi and being obedient to Hanekawa at the same time. |
| Well Koyomi does have that short hair fetish so im expecting a hair cut ... and get used to Kaiki hes not going anywhere persay Great episode though they did remove the kiss scene. |
| So a series that tops itself every episode is Nisemonogatari~ing. I was bored so:  P.S. Shinobu have cast a shadow which she shouldn't be able to. |

| It's fine if Shinobu casts a shadow imo. If she had no shadow, her shading would look really awkward. |

| Another episode that reinforces my love of this series as one of my favorites, and Senjougahara as one of my favorite characters. |
Janus382 said: I will add that I do agree that it sounds kind of like Zeal. I was thinking it was like to show a endless time frame of their talk. Kind of like to make it seems endless. That's what I got as expression when it all started. But the only reason I'm posting is to say OMG I love the music that played in the Shinobu scene. It sounds straight out of Chrono Trigger (Zeal, to be exact) mixed with a little Chrono Cross. It's like they kidnapped Mitsuda and forced him to compose for that scene. It was amazing and now I MUST buy the soundtrack. Regardless of that the OST is impressive for other animes too this year namely Zero. Suffice to say it's all for the better and I hope much more animes take examples of what are good OST inserts and what. |
| I approve of lots of Senjougahara and dem sexy poses. |
 |
| Nisemonogatari and 6 episodes of character and plot building with tons of foreshadowing? When everything rolls I guess I most probably will give another 10... One of the Masterpieces of character-centered anime, I guess? |

| Another great episode. Hachikuji wasn't amused that Araragi that he's not in his usual harassment mode. XD Maybe tsundere-ing? And my God!!! DEM HITAGI POSES!!!! And lol, she tsundere'd. Their conversations never ceased to entertain me. Unlimited Pencil Works FTW!! :D Shinobu's tsundering too. =,= |
| Meh. I was chanting from last episode hoping to see that kiss~ I hope it will be in the BD? Hmmm..whatever, at least I'm liking Nise more than Bake... |
| Good lord, I fucking loved this episode. Fuckin Mayoi, fuckin Hitagi, fuckin Koyomi, fuckin Shinobu....FUCK! They're all so fuckin cool! |

Don't know that show but heard enough that I would like to know where is the reference exactly.Doraemon References: 1 Unless you grew up in eastern Asia the chances are you won't hear about it... So no surprise you did not see it yet, it was 1 or 2 episodes ago when they were animating Karen's angry faces the scene of one of them looked like Suneo's face. http://izumo.want2blog.net/files/2011/08/dfbf61c3_1270111449655.jpg |

| Mayoi and Shinobu~ <3 So much tsun in this episode. |
Trisection said: kFYatek said: Just one quick question: how is it possible that Shinobu casts a shadow? Reduced to such a state that she might as well not be a vampire, the exact same reason why Araragi is able to walk in the sun. I dont think they were refering to the vampirism so much as the fact that she can pass through some sort of portal in the ground (seems to be just around water actually) and how shes a part of Koyomii (not exactly sure how that works). Vampires in the classical sense never had anything said about them not casting shadows to my memory. The reason they made classic vampires not have reflections wasnt a matter of how solid their body was, it represented them not having a soul. |
| WHERE IS DAT INCEST KISS?????? :( Very good episode nevertheless...... 4/5 (-1 for not including kiss) |
 |
| Senjougahara feels more like a yandere than a tsundere to me. I say this because she doesn't act tsun tsun towards Araragi. I can tell she will be potent with any sharp utensils XD. 5/5 episode |

GodlyKyon said: Oh that one, OK. I thought there was one in this episode. I did not think the crystal save point was from Final Fantasy 12 nor was I sure which one exactly it would be. That was catchy though.Yumekichi11 said: GodlyKyon said: Where?
