Mahouka - It's like a car crash and I can't look away
FMA:B - Everything is generally done well but the main story progresses too slowly for my taste. + Show Spoiler +
They don't actually seem to be getting any closer to the stone by ep. 10 than ep. 1. Too much exposition about the past. Expected something similar to Inheritance Cycle but got FMA:B.
Spice and Wolf S1 - 10/10. Independent young adult is much better suited for romance than school.
Pretty obvious that battlers logic was faulty and Beatrice wasent trying to hard but still epic as fuck. Also ANGES death brought some tears. I havent had that happen to me reading/watching anything in years. Dont know why it got to me because death seems a little irrelevant in this vn so i doubt thats the last time we see 18 yr old Ange. Still though... + Show Spoiler +
T.T
So theoretically, you should have enough information to form a theory on who the culprit is now. Any ideas?
Also, Necrophantasia was hilarious. Still the best 'trophy' on my wall.
I think I might do a reread before I start chapter 5 knowing what I know now. I kinda put the theorycrafting at the back seat and started enjoying the ride after the the mess that was episode 2 and 3. But ill put down some theories.
Kinzo being dead might or might not be true. But if he is the that mean Natsuhi lied in episode 1? Shes either delusional or a partial culprit. I dont think there was one murderer. Rosa could of given the letter to marie and said she was Beatrice. It was "shown" she was also in the chapel during that time to. Genji and the Doc also had to have known this kinzo was dead too and was lying. I would guess NanjoGenjiRosaNatsuhi were all involved.
But there are two beatrices it appears and maybe a different battler? Also I dont think what ange saw at the boatmans place was ever explained so I think Im focusing on the wrong hints.
Second theory. They kept on calling the place the accident during the other time. Maybe gas leak or somthing. While the red said they died it doesnt say how they died right? mmm I might have to double check that. I also dont know how much you can believe from anges future since there is no red
--On second thought this doesnt explain how a certain number of ppl died eatch twilight...but the order wasent said except on game 3 on who was alive and dead... I don't know how much freedom I have on making up shit lol. And there were some murders in red that had guns involved i believe.
One thing that Umineko likes to focus on is the "Who" and the "Why". So basically the motive is real important to figuring out who the culprit is. Episode 4 had a lot of important Reds in it. Episode 1 had some important information that I had completely forgotten by the time I started episode 5, which made solving it difficult, and I didn't get it till like halfway through 6. Episode 2 also had the important Red of You are incompetent[!], lol
Best red so far. I got some ideas for motive so far but seems alittle light for murdering an entire family. We will see though. I might go straight to episode 5 tommrow. we'll see
My high point for the series is the ??? for Episode 5. So good.
Hypehypehype
3x3 should be reallly goood.
I also declare Fumino to be mah dear waifu ahead of everyone, haha.

Kanbaru going full awesome this series though, I am glad they did it. Now just need more fire sisters and Hitagi/Kisshot.
Very serious. Araragi has the biggest siscon and a womanizer.but the guy is a god. Every girl wants him and he has Hitagi the second best girl of the show.(Kaiki is the best of course)
Kanbaru doesn't want him or even anyone of his gender
Not sure how he even gets females to like him because half the time he is helping them and the other half he is sexually harassing and/or lusting after them. The only one he really hasn't been openly lewd with is Hitagi (I am somewhat surprised she hasn't threatened him with death to stop his sister "playing"). You could also argue hes a pedo too lol.
Isn't he the target of pedos? Then again, I don't know how old his sisters are, so maybe he's also a pedo.
Yeah he is
so he is "almost" ok with incest, he is a pedo and he likes cowtits. rofl
Slaughter is right i am surprised that he doesn't sexually harrass senjougahara and he acts more like an innocent girl when it comes to her. It's even gahara who sexually harrasses him lol

but isn't the normal reaction when a girl you like makes a sexual move on you is to respond to her as well .. whenever you are horny... araragi doesn't he acts like all "wtf stop what you are doing" and trash talks her
pretty sure araragi is horny all the time.
Thing is he doesn't really do anything, sure he talks a lot about stuff but the only person he ever really "harassed" was Mayoi and even that was more messing around than anything sexual I feel. Hitagi would actually want/let him go all the way with her so that's why I think he never really messes around with her like that. It's not just a game with her unlike with the other girls aside from Hanekawa(Who he also doesn't do anything with). It's not really a harem, it's more Hitagi - Araragi then with Hanekawa on the side. Everyone else it's more admiring/friends than a love thing.

well he did do some crazy stuff with his siblings .. and i also remember this one time where he was about to flip nadeko's skirt and also that one time where Shinobu knocked out araragi when nadeko was about to sleep in his room.
but yeah i agreed
and am i the only one that wanted araragi-hanekawa more than araragi-hitagi as a couple ? although hitagi is in some degree much much better than hanekawa .. i really like hanekawa for araragi more

Have to remember all of that was from Araragi's perspective. It's like how at first we think Kanbaru is this huge perv but when you watch Hana there's almost zero fan service when compared to the other arcs(aside from Kaiki). I mean he does think his sisters are nice/hot I think but the whole siscon thing is blown out of proportion. Shinobu knocking him out was just her thinking it was inappropriate?
edit: Nah I dislike Hanekawa a lot. She comes across as petty and vindictive. In Bake she's constantly giving advice about his relationship with Hitagi but a lot of it doesn't seem like how Hitagi actually is. Feels as if she's using Araragi's trust to put in bad advice. Also it felt very one sided. Araragi likes how Hanekawa looks and respects her but nothing more. There's no real romance there. Compare that to the goddess Hitagi.

Not sure about shinobu just thinking about that it would be inappropriate. I mean shinobu has this physical and mindlink with araragi. Maybe araragi really did have creepy intentions rofl. Shinobu normally doesn't give a fuck about humans around araragi.
Yah pretty sure araragi has a really expectation and respects hanekawa alot. But to be honest i never felt araragi's love over Hitagi before the "stargazing scene" it felt like araragi just became a couple with Hitagi since there is a opportunity to be one. It was not like he was aiming for hitagi or anything.
And surely in the later portions of monogatari pretty sure araragi is inlove but it was more he fell inlove while they are dating rather than he was inlove with her before dating her. Hitagi is pretty dere-dere when it comes to araragi you know.
It was sortof different when it comes to Hanekawa i feel like he is more infatuated in Hanekawa in the start but is just scared to make a move on her since he thinks that she will highly likely reject her.
But of course i like Hitagi more than Hanekawa. Hitagi is just too awesome tbh and there will always be only one girl who is better than hitagi that is Kaiki rofl
Well you don't really love a person when you just start dating them. That's not how dating works lol. So I don't see any problem. He didn't love Hanekawa either and still doesn't. Maybe I'm just biased but the dynamic between Hanekawa and himself always felt a bit off. It was more like a teacher-pupil dynamic than two peers.
Why do i keep watching this show anyways.. too boring
just a couple more hours for the new aldnoah episode
and all my woes will be gone with Hime sama <3
Read your post and was wondering why you said several hours since I thought it got released yesterday then it was like, wait, today is Saturday and not Sunday lol.

hanekawa/araragi relationship in my observation is more like "i got your back buddy" on each other just with all the sexual tension between them ..

Yea that's what I thought about it too. It's kind of funny, when I first watched Bake I liked Hanekawa a fair amount but by rewatching after I've seen the rest all her actions are viewed in a different light to me. Pretty cool writing.

I don't know if it has been mentioned but the fact that Senjyougahara almost got raped and assaulted might have something to do with the unwillingness of Araragi to act with her like he'd do with Mayoi in that regard...
