Review of Bakemonogatari

Bakemonogatari is those types of anime where its boring if you watch it the first time, but once you get use to it and rewatch it its really good (atleast in my experience) Bake really set the monogatari series in what will be known, interesting dialouge, weird characters (in a good way) intriguing story, and just a fun time watching it Studio Shaft nailed the adaptations of the monogatari series in a whole, even if the show may be boring i reccomend starting here if watching the monogatari series If i have to criticize it other than saying its boring, the atmosphere of the anime seem kinda... lonely nowif you progress to the series the lonely and empty atmosphere will be a benifit to the series as it fits the tone of the series itself, a whole pile of mystery. so maybe all of my critizizes are from the time i first watched bake and not knowing anything about the series

The anime itself is really good and fun to watch, just that if you want to experience it you may have to know a bit about the series

overall its a 9/10 (now for those who say "well you put bake as a 10 in your anime list") its because, well its the monogatari series.
