Been so long since I watched and enjoyed a piece of work like this. Honestly, I couldn't tell you the last anime I enjoyed this much.

This is by far my favorite of 09. I doubt anything from the fall season will top this.

If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

just saw ep1-5, Senjogahara = anime chick of the year (my type ~_~), there needs to be a limit on how hot a character in a piece of animation can be >_>

FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU why is this show so gooooood? ;______;

Ep. 5 really surprised me. It's weird how 3 episodes in a row can occur in the same exact setting and not only keep my interest but only make it better. And I totally didn't see the resolution of this arc coming.
Spoiler :
And christ, she totally wants him... Alas, it seems that this show will keep teasing me with that for the next however-many eps. Dawww. But at least the way it does that is totally opposite to how most shows treat these sorts of relationships.

Also, the return of ghost loli at the end made me smile. I guess we'll be seeing her again!

I think this show just came out of nowhere and got my best-show-of-the-season vote. It's one of those where it's actually hard to wait for the next episode. x_x
... yea ...

This show keeps blowing me away after each episode.

I really enjoyed the interactions between Araragi and Senjougahara while they were having a study session.
Spoiler :
Araragi: Who are you, my mom?
Senjougahara: Mom? What do you mean?
*small pause*
Senjougahara: I'm your lover, right?
*Araragi faints*
Classic.

The last minute was just br0000000tal /end sarcasm

Pretty bloody cliffhanger at the end of episode 6. :shock:

And now we wait 2 weeks of the next new episode. :twisted:

I want it now! Most of it is talking and the scene doesn't change very much... so I don't get why I think this show is so interesting... I really wonder? But Senjougahara kicks ass in every episode and Hanekawa is a freakin' fountain of wisdom.

Arararararagi-san

A lot happened in episode 6, seriously, they done a nice job shuffling through all the characters like they did. And boy, that last part caught me totally off-guard, did not see that coming.

Now to endure a long-ass wait for the next episode :x

Indeed, that's gonna suck to wait...

And yep, although I'm not usually prone to these things, Ararararagi-san has totally moe'd me over.

It also looks like I was slightly wrong on yet another point last week....
Spoiler :
Looks like they're definitely acknowledging the relationship, if not in action then certainly in speaking - at least on Senjougahara's part. It was also nice to see Hanekawa giving advice to him as regards to Senjougahara being a girlfriend, and him taking it appropriately. Down with stupid denial in pseudo-couples that are obviously hot for each other!

Here's to hoping this pairing actually lasts. Though we can probably expect drama ahead.

LOL, what did I say about this show being pure Freud? >__>



Another great ep. The series is totally the best thing on right now. Everyone go watch it.
