"Save you ? Me ? I can't do that. You're the only one that can save yourself."
If you're here, you are definitely a fan of the Monogatari Series, or maybe just a random person just looking for a manga. In all cases, I recommend you this manga. \NO SPOILERS/
Story : 9.5
The story is really awesome, it's about the relationships between Araragi, the main character, and 6 other girls, who all have awesome personalities. I must also say that it's not your typical vampire story tho.
Art : 10
If i could add 11/10, I would definitely, it's just the BEST art I've EVER seen. The scenery

'Bakemonogatari' is, without a doubt, an interesting interpretation of Nisio's works. Some diehard fans will be disappointed with its somewhat lax interpretation of some events (both in terms of LNs or the anime). Others won't mind it, as they're open to a more novel take on an already experimental series.
I belong to the latter, but I'd completely understand if you were in the former camp. The manga does take some adjusting to how the arcs are explored. Sometimes you'd get some slight, nuanced differences. Sometimes the changes imposed on the reader are rather...significant and can even appear confusing. What obviously makes these otherwise glaring differences smoother ...

From my perspective that haven't seen bakemonogatari the anime this is not just fairly good, in my opoinion i got a whole lot of enjoyment and wonderful art in one book, and i have never seen anything like it!
When i was reading other really good mangas like death note and uzumaki i got this kinda vibe that only the really good books give you! Bakemonogatari is one of them and with a unique feeling of tension, beautie and horror in one set. The anime includes therefore: 1. Beautiful art that is 10/10 2. Wonderful story = 9/10 where there isn't any obvious reason for this, just feel like ...

Wow this manga is something crazy. I love monogatari series world and anime is at the same time a Masterpiece. Oh, Great did a truly amazing job, he's from another world, every minimal details are here, character design is so well done, the world around is full of details, and reading dialogues and monologues feel very gratifying since you can read again without any problem to understand better the situation.
Another amazing things are manga covers, one better than the other and my god vol.13 cover is one of the best I've ever seen, honestly speaking. Sadly in my country we are at vol. 9, but ...

7/10. That's a pretty solid score. If I'm rating something a 7, then I at least consider it to be "good".
So why is it hard for me to recommend this manga to most people? TL;DR - I think this manga is good, but I don't recommend this series to someone who is new to the series, as I think it's the worst way to experience it. Please watch the anime and light novel instead if you haven't. Edit: Fair warning, I'm going to be comparing the other versions of Monogatari a few times Bakemonogatari is a manga based off of the Monogatari light novel series, taking the name ...

I thought I should leave a review praising what Oh Great! and Nisio Oisin are doing here because I think it is fantastic on every level and deserves to have more people talking about it.
Now to start off with, like many manga/anime fans, for a long time I had only second hand knowledge of the Monogatari series. I had seen a couple of gifs from the Kizu movies when they came out, I heard of the infamous toothbrush scene and maybe an arist I followed drew Hanekawa. On a whim, I decided to read this manga because of a buddy of mine, not really ...

Monogatari is known for its complex narrative and deep storyline that covers themes such as love, friendship, overcoming personal problems, and social issues.
The series revolves around a young man named Koyomi Araragi, who becomes involved in various supernatural stories while trying to help his friends and classmates who are facing similar problems. In each story, Koyomi is faced with different challenges, but always tries to find ways to help people and solve the problems they face. The series also has a strong theme of self-reflection, with the characters questioning their beliefs, desires, and goals throughout the plot. There is also a lot of metaphysics and existentialism ...

After reading the first 5 volumes of "Bakemonogatari" I've come to the conclusion that the manga adaptation of NISIOISIN's most popular work is truly magnificent!
Story: The greatest aspect of Monogatari is that it can be enjoyed on a superficial level through comedy and interesting character interactions, yet at the same time the series is filled with symbolism and themes that inspire and are thought-provoking. Moreover, even though we might feel clueless and lost at certain points, near the end of each arc we get a "punchline" that connects all the strings from before and provides a satisfying conclusion. For some, the ammount of dialogue might be ... |
