QUOTE(XPAWNED01 @ Aug 25 2013, 09:49 PM) Not that proficient though, still learning the language. thanksBaka-tsuki and canon-rap is your best source for light novels translations. Yeah, Nisio's works contain a lot of anime-manga and cultural references--which are the factors of most of his works did not get proper translation. You can read English translated Kabukimonogatari in Baka-tsuki, though there are only 16 chapters translated so far (the project is probably halted), you can read it up to the point of episode 2 maximum, and you'll realized that those that were cut off are actually pretty interesting and funny too. This time Akiyuki has made me disappoint since Nadeko Snake... |

QUOTE(XPAWNED01 @ Sep 7 2013, 11:40 PM) Pretty much satisfied with episode 10 (9 if you didn't count the recap) though the emotional part is pretty shallow, like seriously, it has to be a scene which moves your heart. raws for ep11 out.I will not expect much for Otori and Oni after this. last ep was a bummer. that scene with adult shinobu was so cringeworthy. |

QUOTE(XPAWNED01 @ Dec 15 2013, 12:43 AM) The latest episode shows that Shaft is making Koi arc the best in SS so far, followed by Neko Shiro. really? I thought the latest episode ruined the pacing and the fact that there is no follow up on what's in the closet irks me so much.Greatly depressed how they made Kabuki the most underwhelmed arc |

QUOTE(XPAWNED01 @ Dec 15 2013, 09:56 PM) in the original novel, the pacing was much more slower than this. it's not just about being slow or fast but rather how consistent the pacing is. the first 3 episode builds up greatly, with speed but for some reason the 4th slowed down. they should've simplified it too or make the whole arc longer. it felt like inertia you know.you should be thankful that Shaft cuts unnecessary dialogues or else you'll suffer more of the dragginess. about the closet thing, it will be revealed in the arc's climax. I am not saying 4th ep was bad objectively, rather, relatively. the whole lengthy foreplay with hanekawa didnt at all felt too necessary in the sense that the conversations arent as good as before, and again I reiterate, no mention whatsoever with the closet mystery generally kills the built up suspense which you yourself said, a part of the climax. that doesnt seem wise to me, but that's just me. |

QUOTE(XPAWNED01 @ Dec 15 2013, 10:43 PM) You got your Kabuki and Oni arcs trimmed down massively, it results in pretty bad adaptations so far, considering Shaft has done better in previous installments. agreed on kabuki, but lets judge this on an arc-to-arc basis. SHAFT's simplification of Koi for the first 3 ep was great, I was just disappointed.I mean hey, I ask you one thing, as the anime audience, by far, what could you understand from Shinobu's back story-telling? I seriously pity the anime-only audiences out there as they didn't get to the whole picture of the supposed first generation Kaii-killer, his rebirth and his death. So as Kabuki, so much of the conversations holding the essence of Araragi and Shinobu's bonds together being cut out until there is nothing left behind, explaining their growing bonds. It's like the only matters in the anime was the whole time-space travel thing. I think you too would agree ep 4 is the weakest of them so far, and by quite a margin. |

QUOTE(XPAWNED01 @ Dec 15 2013, 10:59 PM) The 4th one looks okay to me. It need to be done this way, I mean they need to retain the dragginess in this arc thus making the 1st and 4th episode suffers (from my own calculation and justification, I am comparing the anime content to the source material). there are added contents not from the LN? which part?Shaft simplification in the 2nd and 3rd episode may look like okay to most of the viewers but I need to stress that they totally ignored the back story of Gahara and Kaiki two years ago. They will never coming back, unless in Bluray release, Aniplex decided to insert audio monologue of it just as the same they did to Hanekawa's letter to the cat in Neko Shiro. More cutting means the arc pacing will be ruined further and more anime original contents means unnecessary Shaft's intervene. Iirc, Shaft has never made an AO scenes for Monogatari except for that scene where Oshino Meme met Araragi the last time in Bake. Well, this is the only way Shaft can retain the greatness of the arc without interfering much. |
