*Monogatari Series (Semi-Airing Order)
Anime
Another order that first-time anime watchers use. Taking into account how the author intended to convey the story and correcting production constraints, while also considering the better way to experience the story in an anime format.
Highly recommended to watch the Blu-ray version as a lot of animation decisions are changed due to financial restraints in the TV version.
Summary: Moved Kizumonogatari films to LN order to overcome Shaft production delays, Hanamonogatari and Koyomimonogatari in airing order.
Made in collaboration with Squashbucklr and Zeth_kiel.

Moved from airing order as this was intended to be released in 2012 by Studio Shaft to follow the novel order, but due to delays and production decisions it was pushed back to 2016-17. This allows for a fundamental understanding of the relationship of core characters earlier, giving context to future arcs and placing more emphasis on the development of their relationship rather than a sense of mystery. This follows the light novel order.

Placing Hanamonogatari here places more emphasis on the actions and weight on the dialogue of the characters rather than highlighting a sense of mystery or reflection in this order. This follows the airing order, initially placed after Kabukimonogatari and before Otorimonogatari in the light novel.
