Audience Reviews

ZeBlah 4/10 Jun 29, 2019
(referring to "bakemonogatari"):

this is one of the anime that I just cannot understand.

Very interesting graphics and ambience at least at the start (perspectives/graphics are then repeated endlessly), so in the end I just don't see a lot of substance - just a cumulative amount of sexy references and potential upcoming changes in the story, but it keeps dragging through each episode and in general it keeps becoming more and more sexual-oriented.

I did not like it.
