Bakemonogatari


Originally posted by Wikipedia
Bakemonogatari centers on Koyomi Araragi, a third year high school student who is almost human again after briefly becoming a vampire. One day, a classmate named Hitagi Senjōgahara, who infamously never talks to anyone, falls down the stairs into Koyomi's arms. He discovers that Hitagi weighs next to nothing, in defiance of physics. Despite being threatened by her to keep away, Koyomi offers his help, and introduces her to Meme Oshino, a strange middle-aged man living in an abandoned building, who cured him of being a vampire.

The series tends to introduce only one new heroine per chapter, each involved with a different "apparition". Most of them have an item which symbolises their spectres, such as Hitagi's stapler - the claw of a crab, Mayoi's back pack - the shell of a snail, Suruga's leggings - SARUMATA (猿股, the Japanese traditional underclothing. 'SARU' means monkey), and Nadeko's big hat and baggy jacket - the head and skin of a snake. The events of the previous chapters play an important role in the subsequent ones. The series primarily focuses on conversations between characters; it contains a fair number of parodies of other series, as well as Nisio Isin's trademark word play and metahumor.

What else can be said about this anime? It's weird, trippy and half the time doesn't make too much sense. There are very good subs out there, so if you're interested in this kind of "genre", I recommend it.

Overall it has 15 episodes, the first 12 can be found in high quality subbed by various groups. I have watched nine episodes so far and I find it incredibly awesome, despite me not getting what's going on half the time. Oh, and maybe I should point out that it has slight NSFW and gore.

So yeah, discuss or something.
