Review of Bakemonogatari
I've tried completing this series multiple times but could not endure watching more than 4 episodes. The biggest flaw of this anime is the poor animation directing. There were numerous scenes where characters were talking extensively in a still shot or where the full shot was motionless with minimal repetitive movements such as the movement of the characters' mouths. I also thought the random ecchi scenes were distracting and entirely unnecessary. I did not find this type of directing innovative and think the experimental directing and art style failed to entertain its audience because the viewers were stuck with experiencing an entirely 2 dimensional world.Also as far as the characters go, I found Senjougahara to be super annoying. How can any person be so egotistical yet extremely self conscious at the same time?
