This is going to be a very hard one to forget.
Initially you are struck by how incredibly gorgeous the animation and style of this show is. You must see this in HD.
Characters, story and dialogue are all charming and very complex. Hitagi is a beautiful and deep character and she is an enigma all the way till the end. Araragi and his funny as Hell hair were real "stand out" moments haha. Oshino has to be one of the coolest bad ass support characters ever.
The monsters and transformations were really great. I loved the crab, the snakes and the cat. Cat humans with big tits are never a bad thing, are they? Add pyjamas to that and it is good people.
I found the structure of the show a bit hit and miss, the colour screens and insanely fast intertitles were both a help and a hindrance, I can imagine they would be perfect if you stopped and paused it, but who wants to do that on a first viewing.
It's a very dark, sexy and hilarious show and one I will definitely be returning to. The ending music is God damn awesome too! I listened to it every time. 10 years 10 months ago
