If you don't like dialogue and like action, this isn't for you... well you probably won't even be enjoying the Monogatari series to begin with. Since that's what the series mainly is. This one is basically to summarize it, 95% dialogue and 5% basketball. Not everything in the Monogatari did I enjoyed, I enjoyed Bakemonogatari and Second Season (which is my favorite). This is would fall in third place and focus mainly on the one character who was missing in the second season. I enjoyed the overall plot, it was what I would say... very bitter-sweet and I enjoyed the misery we all shared inwatching this one. It was beautifully tragic.
