Hella not overrated. There's a difference between "overrated," "being good," and simply "sucking." In order to be overrated, something has to SUCK, but have A LOT OF FANS. SUCKING means that something has to SUCK and have NO FANS. Being GOOD means it's GOOD and has A LOT OF FANS. Bakemonogatari is hella good... Fuckin' weeaboo... You're retarded. Hella not overrated.

"If you have time to mess around with this, you should be concentrating on Bakemonogatari." SHAFT is the best. End of.

After watching the series (episodes 1-12) on a weekly basis I completed each episode without fully understanding what was going on. Of course I got the "how the f*** can you miss that?!" bits, but the parts where you had to pause to read the subtitles were a miss for me, so I didn't really grasp the background details of the episode and the character's dilemmas. But still it manages to be my favourite anime this year. A huge redeeming factor of the show was when Senjogahara (sp?) finally makes a f***ing appearance in episode 12, if she didn't come back and show her pretty face, this show would be fail! (A slight exaggeration on my part, but did anyone else feel the same way before watching episode 12?) Also, I plan on buying the DVD when (and if) it comes out, so I can fill in the blanks that I missed on my first run through and also they can fill in the scenes they cut and maybe improve the animation instead of giving me still frames to look at, which I didn't really mind at all, because I was watching it free. Now I'm paying... I demand quality. Bakemonogatari...what can I say?

The actual OP is actually quite clean. As for this episode, the lack of animation killed it for me. I was used to a lot of still imagery and stock footage in this show, but to me, it didn't even look like they tried to compensate it with anything. Couldn't they have used something else than the "Voice/Line removed" and the "scene removed due to circumstances" boxes? Maybe rewatching it again later will change my mind.

Considering the pacing of the story, you don't really notice the missing images. Probably, because previous episodes had similar "inserts" during the action, the Kanbaru vs Araragi fight comes to mind. With the inserts representing thoughts or wishes. Essentially narration for the viewer. Much ado about nothing, to quote a title from the Bard. Eh, watched the subbed version yesterday.

You have absolutely no clue. Compare any recent harem/fanservice series to something like Love Hina (circa 2000), and you'll see the difference. When Haruhi came out in 2006, it blew every other series out of the water in terms of production quality. 2009 Haruhi is exactly the same as 2006 Haruhi, but now it's fairly average for a top-tier show.
