MAL never ceases to surprise me, I guess?
I mean, this show is rather good Mono/Oreiro improvement with an amazing MC.



What's the difference?

Nah, man. Lots of people really enjoyed the series and thus scored it accordingly. Sorry you didn't enjoy it as much, but people have different tastes.

First mini-arc was good. Rest of episodes was pure shit, 5 mini-arcs about nothing and ending was shit. I was waiting for some good ending and conclusion of whole plot but there was nothing not even one kiss for MC. This series should die.

Maybe you dont know but the open ending is on purpose, there is a movie already confirmed and it will get another season probably or at least an spin-off

Its funny, idk why people gets so salty about a f*** show, that is just meant to entertain people, not piss them off.
If they dont like it probably the best option for them its idk just not watch the things that they dont like, sound crazy right?
I dont like JoJo's, i dont understand why people like it so much, but instead of go to everywhere talking shit about JoJo's i rather watch an anime that fits better my taste.
Maybe i'm crazy but i think that people actually can enjoy things without the need of throwing shit at thigs they dont like

It was 8.63 just after it finished airing and i think that number was beautiful for this show, now it has an 8.67 that seems like out of nowhere.

Definitely my AOTY. However I still gave it a 9/10. 10/10's are rare for me, and while it could have qualified, I felt that the last few episodes were rather cheap in some ways. Especially the finale was a bit of a mess:

That made me die of laughter, those damn Monogatari fans say that Bunny Girl Senpai is overhyped which it is, but they overhype the hell out of Monogatari and I was disappointed when I watched it. Good show, but not nearly as good as they say

Ayy that topic being a parody of another topic... xD Top kek, mate.

It's good to see it, though, even if it was planned to be a joke. If somebody complains on too high score (in his/her oppinion) of something, then another person has the right to do the same about too low (in his/her oppinion) score of something.

My main problem with this show is that the characters don’t really seem like friends. With the exception of mai I don’t understand why anyone spends time with the main guy.

The characters look to similar.

The girls are never able save themselves but only by getting attention from the guy.

It’s not nearly as interesting as any part of monogatari.

Shinobu was gonna extinct the whole human race just because Araragi couldn’t manage to find her and you’re saying that the girls, in Bunny Girl, are never able to save themselves...

Of the 17 shows that I started this season, Bunny Girl ends as the #2 rated show of the season for me behind Slime.

Personally, I love how the 4 main characters (Mai, Sukata, Futaba, and Kunimi) are so mentally stable. The interaction between Sakuta and Mai reminds me of the interaction between Josh Hartnett and Lucy Liu's characters in the movie Lucky Number Slevin - it's also great that they both continue making sacrifices for each other - that is the sign of a truly great couple. Mai Sakurajima also made it into my favorite character list.

Right? Like it's fine not to like Bunny Girl Senpai. But the hate reviews, and the hate posts, all the snide comments because it's not Monogatari is ridiculous. Not everyone thinks Monogatari is some great masterpiece, hell I take the first 3 episodes of Bunny Girl Senpai over anything I saw in Bakemonogatari. Some people need to learn to live and let live.

Actually I think these people should log into reddit and see what's happening there

Well, for me, the score is a little bit too high but it's in the range of acceptable. I like and enjoy the show, but maybe not as much as most people and not so hate it as some group of people.

I kind of annoyed about how the show is so rushed, it could have been better if it weren't this rushed, but, again, the depression of Sakuta at the last episode is so relatable.

Ahahhaha I see what u're doing.
Anyway I actually think the current score fits the show pretty well.
8.5 is exactly what I'd give to it if mal allowed decimal numbers in the score.

Btw am I really the only one who likes both bunny girl and monogatari? (I pref monogatari but I think they're both pretty good)
Kinda sad to see the fanbase of two show I really like shitting on each other, what about talking about what is good of the one u like instead of what's bad of the one u dislike?

It's just how MAL works. That's why I'm in a love-hate relationship with this site.
Also, there are people like that top review on the page thinking that the show is bland and mediocre (even calling Sakuta an straight-up asshole...wut)...which I can understand when I look at it from a different perspective. I mean, I'll be fair, I think one particular issue I see is that people are trying to call it out for copyrighting the Monogatari series.....when it really doesn't. Monogatari does have a similar set of characters and arc format, but the themes are FAR FAR different.

I'll be honest, I enjoyed this A LOT more than the Monogatari series. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the Monogatari series, too, but quite a lot of stuff from it just didn't sit right with me, like with how certain arcs are played out, and how certain characters are depicted. Also, Monogatari, in my opinion, relies quite a lot on appealing with supernatural or visual appeal, while Bunny Girl Senpai actually didn't really have a good animation budget to begin with.

There's also the issue of "realism". The thing is that....in the end, it's another fictional work. How much realism do we actually want in a show, and does it really matter that much or not in terms of deciding for ourselves if a show is good or not? People just have individually different interpretations of that.

Lastly, it's a rom-com. Rom-coms as an anime show type are quite ubiquitous, and thus will be inevitably subjected to a lot of different perspectives. I mean, Ore Seishun, often compared to Bunny Girl Senpai as well, actually mean quite a lot of criticism as well, tbf.

And then there's the awkward CG of the people in the background, which reflects back to the setbacks with the animation budget...which other than that, the anime still did really well with for the most part.

Hopefully that answers some stuff, if not most, of the inquiries here.

Me too, man...I like both, though I enjoyed Bunny Girl Senpai a bit more, personally. Monogatari was a weird experience, but a very fun one, nonetheless.

Shinobu decided to stop being a hermit on her own. She also chose between her old and new minion's. Koyomi guides the characters rather than save them.

Monogatari is really good, but not a masterpiece, imo. Yea I feel the same, I do like both shows, and it makes me facepalm to see the two fanbases try to go at it.

Score is almost on-point if you ask me, at least by MAL standards - alright, perhaps a a tiny winy bit too high.

It was a solid anime overall:

- Great 1st arc
- Great interactions between Sakuta and Mai
- Mai has a strong presence in all arcs, unlike other similar guy-solves-girls'-problems LN adaptations, where the main love interest is either picked in the last arc, because it's last so izi-er, chosen early on then ignored for the rest of the arcs,or there's pussy out completely and there's no romantic interest at all.
- The rest of the arcs were hit & miss I supposed, I myself enjoyed most besides the last.

Yea, Kaede's arc was lacking. Needed a bit more time to show how she adapts to everything she missed in the past 2 years, especially meeting Mai-san. If you ain't gonna show that, then AT LEAST don't be dicks and cockblock a freaking kiss at the end, damn bastards.
