Well I finally got around to watching the final episode of this show. The fact that it took me this long says something about how disappointed I am with it.

\nNisemonagatari<\/em> is the sequel to 2009’s Bakemongatari<\/em> I called<\/a> the original show “Macabre, funny, twisted and solidly entertaining”.<\/p>\n

I can’t call Nisemonogatari<\/em> “original” because it’s basically more of the same. The new stories feel much like the old ones and don’t really add anything. What’s different is that what I considered twisted humor in the original has become excessive amounts of disturbing, kinky over-the-top fan service<\/a>.
\n
\nAraragi-kun always had perverted impulses but in Bakemonogatari<\/em> he was usually able to keep them under control and behave honorably. Now he seems to revel in them. So we are treated to a seemingly endless series of loli<\/a> ghost fan service, loli vampire fan service, horny middle-school girl fan service, incestuous tooth-brushing fan service, not to mention incestuous breast-grabbing fan service.<\/p>\n

(Molesting a ghost or ogling a vampire probably won’t get you arrested, but I’m not so sure about the stuff with his sisters. If the sister isn’t a blood relative, does that really make it OK by Japanese standards?)<\/p>\n

Another sequel is promised but I doubt that I will be watching it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
