Review of Zoku Owarimonogatari

"I have no idea what is going on" That is what you're going to be saying to yourself around the 10-minute mark of episode 1. Zoku has a very elaborate and complex story, which is great and all, except the writer uses ambiguous metaphors to explain things and nonchalantly breaks the fourth wall. "If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss will gaze into you." "If you can't be the medicine, be the poison; otherwise you're just plain water" Those are two examples of complicated quotes from the anime that you can, stop, and spend hours trying to interpret just one of the quotes. I promise you that allthe other whack things that come out of these guy's throats can have you bewildered and have you wondering what the hell they meant. But if you can get over an anime that is ambiguous, philosophical, always breaking the fourth wall, and makes you have to wonder if they were being literal or metaphorical when they say nonsense, then you would like this anime.
