I'm glad you pointed this out, yes I skipped over them, and that was on purpose, because Seacond Season episodes 6,11, and 16 are filler recap episodes so you don't have to watch them😉
Literally just watch Bakemonogatari. There is no debate whatsoever that that's where you start. After 2 episodes you'll know if you're interested, after 5 you'll know if you're fascinated, and after 15 you'll know if you're in love. Then novel order for the rest of the series. Anime order is the same as novel order with 3 exceptions (out of 18) that were only out of order because of production issues. There is no reason to not watch in novel order.
Thats so true in short this series is a compilation of supernatural stories sorrounding our former vampiire who also has a story of how he became one vampire and his friends whom encounterd a odditie or became an odditie
@@leocot7094 I wouldn't recommend it, I've never seen this order talked about anywhere besides this video. Most people agree it's either anime release order or novel release order, the difference being mostly when you watch the movies. I recommend novel release order since that's the closest way to how the author intended the story to be experienced and it handles mystery very well.
And I hate it, that's making the reasons the series is purposely not chronological uselles, I feel like watching in release order or release order but with kizu after nise
I watched it recently with release order. If you enjoy watching a series that starts with a big piece of paper with lots of holes in it and will later be filled up as the series goes on, I highly recommend to watch it according to release order. So you start with lots of questions and mysteries that later will be answered as you go through it.
@@Zo_young_14 well for 1st time watcher i recommend you to do it in this order : Bakemonogatari Kizumonogatari Nisemonogatari Nekomonogatari (kuro) Monogatari 2nd season Hanamonogatari Tsukimonogatari Owarimonogatari Koyomimonogatari Owarimonogatari season 2 Zoku owarimonogatari Well kizumonogatari is a movie which is split into 3 parts and it's a prequel of why oddities happen. But it's best to watch after bakemonogatari so that you won't get confused.
And the order is Bakemonogatari (make sure you watch all 15 episodes) > Kizumonogatari (3 movies) > Nisemonogatari > Nekomonogatari : Kuro and then Monogatari Series Second Season: watch episode 1 to 10 then Hanamonogatari > Monogatari Series Second season: the rest and then to Tsukimonogatari > Koyomimonogatari > Owarimonogatari part 1 and 2 > Zoku Owarimonogatari And i didn't create this order @machinegun did.

Ok. lets get this straight. You should NEVER watch Monogatari in Chronological order. The story is not meant to be told that way. You are meant to jump to different parts of the time line. Also how is LN release order only important on a rewatch? Thats literally the order that the story was written in. therefor, it is by far the best watch order. The only reason the anime release order is slightly altered is because of production.
@Tsunami Gómez Díaz So many people say to wait to watch the Kizumonogatari films till very late. Their excuse is that they didnt come out till 2016/17. But these idiots dont realize that the films were green lit for production in 2010, after Bakemonogatari finished and before Nisemonogatari even came out. They were decided to be made into movies, and had a completely unique art style and animation compared to the TV seasons. It was also push back at a point. The films are meant to be watched after Bake.
Thank you so much. I’ve been wanting to watch this series but it’s been discouraging not knowing the order. Going to binge watch this till I have no life after.

Ikr why recommend a made up garbage watch order where you need to check your notes every time what episode of what season to watch next, how is this better than the way it was written and intended which is LN Order
Semi Chronicle Bakemongatari>Nisemonogatari>Kizumonogatari>Nekomongatari>Second Season 7-10> Second Season 17-20> Owarimonogatari 8-12>Second Season 1-5>Owarimonogatari 1-7 > Second Season 12-15 and 21-26>Tuskimongatari>Owarimonogatari 2>Zuko Monogatari >Hanamonogatari
I personally don't recommend to watch it in chronological/semi chronogical order, but in anime release order, that means watch Kizu after owari. Why? Because: Kizu has a unique style, it's completely different to the other series. And it's like a very enjoyable break to the series; You understand more. Like, why, in the films, Araragi looked away when Hanekawa said that she was studying math, and the reason why Araragi says that he doesn't need friends. These two scenes had an huge impact to me, because I knew the story behind them. Those details makes the show, and expecially Kizu, more enjoyable.
Honestly i've seen alot of people complain about watching it chronologically cause some moments they say its actually getting more confusing and hard to catchup me personally i watched it release order ofcourse its confusing but its just like solving a puzzle everytime you watch it you get it piece by piece. But ofcourse it still depends on you i'd rather go for the release order if you just want to go straight watch and not switching series by series
I think the best order is: Bakemonogatari Kizumonogatri Nisemonogatari Nekomonogatari Kuro Monogatari Series second season Hanamonogatari Tsukimonogatari Owarimonogatari S1 Koyomimonogatari Owarimonogatari s2 Zoku Owarimonogatari That's the order I've been seeing alot new comers to Monogatari watch it in recently, and it's the best order in my opinion, since Kizu is right after Bake like Shaft originally planned it to be, it provides context for Shinobu's and Araragi's relationship in Nise, it avoids the obnoxious stopping through 1 series and start another then coming back that semi-chronological has.
Yes anyone who comes across this comment just listen to him. Throw everything else you’ve heard out the door and just watch it like this if it’s your first time. Trust. At least don’t watch it in chronological the first time EVER 🤢
@@tracerultimate2336 i dont understand why you wouldnt watch a series that, is series being socially defined as a chronological list of episodes or parts in chronological order
I already watch fate because it's my favorite anime and I know all the orders to watch it and railgun it's kinda boring but I still finished it but this anime is confusing I watched first the kizumonotagari the vampire with big oppai should I continue to watch part 2 and 3 of the movie or should I watch the exact order that this vid shows?
Thanks for your little guide, I just watched bakemonogstari and nisemonogatari in 2 days and I came here to take a screenshot so I don't get lost while binge watching. Time to watch the movies *grabs popcorn*
Holy hell. I just started watching the first series. I did not realize that I was getting into something like that was getting this like bizarre. But I think that I am going to watch it release order.
The fate series man dude i just pulled it up randomly watched the first one then realized there was another watched it and realized i watched it in the right order
Here’s what I did/recommend: 1. Watch Bakemonogatari (to appreciate and understand the uniqueness of every design/cinematic choice) 2. Just read the goddamn Light Novels 3. Go back (optional) and watch some seasons or just everything of Monogatari in Anime format. I watched bakemonogatari then read the light novels then read kizumonogatari then watched the trilogy of films and so on and so on. Anyway if this was helpful in any way you’re welcome and if you the LN order let me know. Bye.
I'm thankful for sharing your experience and the possibile ways to watch this series ... I look forward to start this series with the Semi - chronological order .... Thanks for the information you shared :)
I watched 70% of the series before watching the movies, and regret it, they help a lot with understanding the backstory of the primary characters. After I finish it completely, I'll go back and re-watch in semi-chronological.
OMG i've been doing this wrong, ok so about 4 years ago i watched Owarimonogatari the first few episode, but i dropped it because i got vertigo watching that anime, too many colors and flashy things in the room i just couldn't watch it. then 2 years later i discovered Kizumonogatari the movies, i just watch it because it has good score. now after 2 years i discovered bakemonogatari from top anime list in MAL, the first few minutes watching it i feel deja vu, i couldn't put finger on it so i kept watching until the main character mention about he was a vampire then turned back into human. Then i remember i watched something like that. There's a whole series about this franchise that i didn't know about and it's more complicated then i imagined. damn i don't know if I should continue, feel like a lot to catch up T_T
PLEASE DO! Don't worry about the fact that you did it wrong. This story is complex so you'll be fine. The story is definitely amazing and it's wroth al the time and effort. But watch it with care. Find some time during your day where you can put all your attention to the anime so you can experience it better! Enjoy! (AND WATCH LIGHT NOVEL ORDER! Just google how the light novel order works, there are TONS and TONS of help for that :D)
@@MrFreakHeavy I'm so excited to start this series for the first time! I just started watching bakemonogatari and luckily, I put my full attention to the first series when I began it (currently on episode 6 ideally, I could've been through more episodes by now, but I have been researching and frying my brain to better understand how I should watch this, should've just read the comments first). I had no idea that the franchise was this huge I just stumbled upon the other monogataris whilst reading the comment sections in Crunchyroll. I was a little stood back on the idea of watching all of this at once, but now I am really interested.
I really just wanted to see the relationship buildup between hitagi and araragi because it was so intresting,but it turns out the anime doesn't really show the buildup overtime, I never really got to see Araragi and Hitagi ever hang out together other in the series Bakemonogatari and Nisemonogatar.
Do you recommend anime release order? Or semi-chronological? I get that apparently watching the anime release order starts all confusing but then things get answered as you watch but do you actually have to figure it out for things to be answered? or is it easy to understand? because I wouldn’t like to have to think about things too hard to figure it out, I want to just enjoy it
Asal I don’t anymore, I spoke to multiple light novel readers and found out the correct watch order and I’m almost finished with Monogatari, in fact it even became my second most favorite anime, I’ve even gone as far to make over 70 people watch it and even more by the day. The correct watch order is the light novel watch order
i cant say im a fan of this whole shuffling around episodes. starting monogatari second season at episode 7 felt wrong, like cheating. I agree with watching kizu early (i watched after bake) but personally i will watch mono 2nd season from 1 to 26. in the end i decided to go with: bake>kizu>nise>neko>mono 2nd > owari> tsuki> >owari 2nd>hana>koyomi im half way mono 2nd and i feel pretty happy so far. ps: i actually went neko before nise but i kinda regret it now. edit: i ended up watching hana koyomi on release order but i wished i watched them on light novel order.
Watching series in chronological order killing most of story and character grow. And you call "semi-chronological" better for first timers? I think they drop this the moment they need to just from 1 season to another to watch few eps and go back again. It's more confusing than anime itself. This anime is meant to be watching like it was released. There is many foreshadowing and retrospection in it, so structure of story is just great when you watch it like this.
"don't worry about koyomimonagatari" What about the last 2 episodes because I'm pretty sure those are major events?. I watched and I was shook. Is it meant to be how it ends?
@@AE-or7xd i have a fiew more ep left before i finish all the seasons, will there be some more or is this the end of the franchise, cus i really loved it
@@jovanadzic6160 The author has like 10 more novels written and is written 3 more. We don't know if he'll continued thee novels, he just might because that's what he's been doing: finishing a season or novel volume saying this one is the last and then just writing more, and more, and more. Shaft has said they'll continue adapting so long as the author keep writing, but we have yet to see news for Orokamonogatari from the Off Season novels.
I highly recommend that you watch it in the anime release order with one main difference. Swap Kizumonogatari 1,2 and 3 and Koyomimonogatari. Koyomimonogatari ends on a cliffhanger that ties into Owari Second Season. Make sure you watch Koyomi because it is important. Also, don’t do the Chronological or Semi-Chronological order. Just don’t.
for the people who didnt understand the semi-chronological order (and also for me) here it is bake monogatari nise monogatari then the movies part 1 2 3 then neko monogatari s2 7 - 10 then s2 17-20 owari monogatari 8-12 s2 1-5 owari monogatari 1-7 s2 12-15 s2 21-26 tsukimonogatari owari monogatari 2nd season zokumonogatari then finally hanamonogatari koyomimonigatari is optional
I always recommend Kizu after Owari, then Koyomi, and Owari2............. I don't know I think it links very well with how Owari ends. I think that the way the anime is done, Kizu could be watched at any point in time, but it fits better after Baku or after Owari.
i agree. Nise feels better after kizu and i can only take so much teasing before i just give up on a mistery. i dont like to feel like instead of teasing me the series is taking for granted information that i dont know
Watching the Anime release order would be one hell of a ride, so its highly recommended. With a minor change that watch Hanamonogatari after Zokumonogatari bcoz it literally spoils the future events of rest of series.
why do you feel the need to create the "semi chronological order" and fool people to watch it like that? you even said that you shouldn't worry about koyomi monogatari even tho it's directly related to owari , honestly one of the worst if not the worst video explaining monogatari order
And this is why to this day I still haven't watched the Monogatari Series because it seems like every few months there is a new and different order to watch the series and other people online change their order all the time.
@BotPlayerLegacy no it's not your head. Ever since a couple 2-3 years after this series has come out I've seen and read so many different ways to watch the series. Some different, some similar to each other, an some similar but eith slight changes. I may just say fuck it an Russian Roulette pick one of them just to watch it already. It's because of the different orders of things. Like how the guy somewhat states in this video. Like release order of thr mangas/light novels, the chronological order of the mangas/light novels, the semi chronological order of the manga. Those orders go same for the anime itself. It's crazy!
Joe The Juggalo The way I watched it was the anime release order BUT I watched the Kizumonogatari movies right after bakemonogatari and then continued with the anime release order. I found it cleared everything up about certain characters and it helps with understanding some conversations in the arcs after the first season while keeping some aspects of mystery in the later arcs and it made it more enjoyable, at least for me.
@@coolguy10221 I may do that myself. I normally just watch animes like that but when I found out about this anime a few years after it was released I was already neck need in "watch it this way, watch it that way".

>that completely whack semi-chronological order
?????
LN order should be the default.
Ikr why recommend a made up garbage watch order where you need to check your notes every time what episode of what season to watch next, how is this better than the way it was written and intended which is LN Order
You need to watch Koyomimonogatari before Owari Season 2
Semi Chronicle
Bakemongatari>Nisemonogatari>Kizumonogatari>Nekomongatari>Second Season 7-10>
Second Season 17-20> Owarimonogatari 8-12>Second Season 1-5>Owarimonogatari 1-7
> Second Season 12-15 and 21-26>Tuskimongatari>Owarimonogatari 2>Zuko Monogatari >Hanamonogatari
But why kizu after nise? It makes no sense!
also leaving out koyomimonogatari makes now sense, r we supposed to just accept he’s randomly dead at the start of owari s2?🤨
I personally don't recommend to watch it in chronological/semi chronogical order, but in anime release order, that means watch Kizu after owari. Why? Because:
Kizu has a unique style, it's completely different to the other series. And it's like a very enjoyable break to the series;
You understand more. Like, why, in the films, Araragi looked away when Hanekawa said that she was studying math, and the reason why Araragi says that he doesn't need friends. These two scenes had an huge impact to me, because I knew the story behind them.
Those details makes the show, and expecially Kizu, more enjoyable.
Honestly i've seen alot of people complain about watching it chronologically cause some moments they say its actually getting more confusing and hard to catchup me personally i watched it release order ofcourse its confusing but its just like solving a puzzle everytime you watch it you get it piece by piece. But ofcourse it still depends on you i'd rather go for the release order if you just want to go straight watch and not switching series by series
thank you now i have 16 tabs in my browser just for monogotari series
I think the best order is:
Bakemonogatari
Kizumonogatri
Nisemonogatari
Nekomonogatari Kuro
Monogatari Series second season
Hanamonogatari
Tsukimonogatari
Owarimonogatari S1
Koyomimonogatari
Owarimonogatari s2
Zoku Owarimonogatari
That's the order I've been seeing alot new comers to Monogatari watch it in recently, and it's the best order in my opinion, since Kizu is right after Bake like Shaft originally planned it to be, it provides context for Shinobu's and Araragi's relationship in Nise, it avoids the obnoxious stopping through 1 series and start another then coming back that semi-chronological has.
There Are Few Recommend Changes By Others Like Watch Hana Between Kubki And Otori
Yes anyone who comes across this comment just listen to him. Throw everything else you’ve heard out the door and just watch it like this if it’s your first time. Trust. At least don’t watch it in chronological the first time EVER 🤢
@@tracerultimate2336 i dont understand why you wouldnt watch a series that, is series being socially defined as a chronological list of episodes or parts in chronological order
*finishes watching Fate*
Alright, time to try monogatari, I'm ready
*watches this*
Maybe I'll just watch Railgun.
Franco Zamora Me right now, honestly Fate is not we confusing as it seems.
i actually decide to watch this instead of railgun😂
This video doesn't explain it well. You just need to follow Novel order, an curse shaft for making a mess with Second Season.
@@adamkun1977 same
I already watch fate because it's my favorite anime and I know all the orders to watch it and railgun it's kinda boring but I still finished it but this anime is confusing I watched first the kizumonotagari the vampire with big oppai should I continue to watch part 2 and 3 of the movie or should I watch the exact order that this vid shows?
The only problem is that I can’t tell who is wrong or right on the best watch order
Thanks man it was very useful 😍😍
Never used so much brain power just to watch a show because of the fanservice peaking my interest
The Chronological Order...
th-cam.com/video/ahBacxxOYiA/w-d-xo.html
I watched Kizu after Bake and it felt great. Now I will continue with anime release order. When rewatching I will use the semi-chronological order.
Thanks for your little guide, I just watched bakemonogstari and nisemonogatari in 2 days and I came here to take a screenshot so I don't get lost while binge watching. Time to watch the movies *grabs popcorn*
My fate is sealed. I started bakemonogatari without knowing how many monogataris there were
How the hell does this dood pace the whole timeline together, i cant imagine myself doing this
Holy hell. I just started watching the first series. I did not realize that I was getting into something like that was getting this like bizarre. But I think that I am going to watch it release order.
105 episodes in a weekend I can’t do that
tomrob06 did you made it 😂
Nope I had homework to much so I couldn’t watch it
Wow this has 105 EPs total? I was getting into a more beefy series than I thought
Wookie Qbacca it took me a minute or 2 too figure it out
I love this video. I keep coming back for guidance 😊
The fate series man dude i just pulled it up randomly watched the first one then realized there was another watched it and realized i watched it in the right order
Hearing what you just said, you probably didn’t lol.
@@niyealwinter6064 I somehow managed to though I was still confused with all the shit going on with other shows and shit
Bruh its so detailed thanks for helping out man
Here’s what I did/recommend:
1. Watch Bakemonogatari (to appreciate and understand the uniqueness of every design/cinematic choice)
2. Just read the goddamn Light Novels
3. Go back (optional) and watch some seasons or just everything of Monogatari in Anime format.
I watched bakemonogatari then read the light novels then read kizumonogatari then watched the trilogy of films and so on and so on. Anyway if this was helpful in any way you’re welcome and if you the LN order let me know.
Bye.
Where should I read the light novels?
@@droste3754 well you can buy them online or your local Barnes and noble ( although Barnes and noble probably only have the tires three)
I AM YOUR 1000TH SUB!!!!
I'm thankful for sharing your experience and the possibile ways to watch this series ...
I look forward to start this series with the Semi - chronological order .... Thanks for the information you shared :)
I watched 70% of the series before watching the movies, and regret it, they help a lot with understanding the backstory of the primary characters.
After I finish it completely, I'll go back and re-watch in semi-chronological.
"All we have to cover in this video is Airing order and Semi chronological order"
Into the trash it goes
Thank u so much for this its like the fate series idk where to start
3:42 My brain says goodbye. Yo really you switch through the episodes and series omg.
I just wached the whole series, IT WAS MOST DEF WORTH IT, Great Anime
OMG i've been doing this wrong, ok so about 4 years ago i watched Owarimonogatari the first few episode, but i dropped it because i got vertigo watching that anime, too many colors and flashy things in the room i just couldn't watch it. then 2 years later i discovered Kizumonogatari the movies, i just watch it because it has good score. now after 2 years i discovered bakemonogatari from top anime list in MAL, the first few minutes watching it i feel deja vu, i couldn't put finger on it so i kept watching until the main character mention about he was a vampire then turned back into human. Then i remember i watched something like that. There's a whole series about this franchise that i didn't know about and it's more complicated then i imagined. damn i don't know if I should continue, feel like a lot to catch up T_T
PLEASE DO! Don't worry about the fact that you did it wrong. This story is complex so you'll be fine. The story is definitely amazing and it's wroth al the time and effort. But watch it with care. Find some time during your day where you can put all your attention to the anime so you can experience it better! Enjoy! (AND WATCH LIGHT NOVEL ORDER! Just google how the light novel order works, there are TONS and TONS of help for that :D)
@@MrFreakHeavy I'm so excited to start this series for the first time! I just started watching bakemonogatari and luckily, I put my full attention to the first series when I began it (currently on episode 6 ideally, I could've been through more episodes by now, but I have been researching and frying my brain to better understand how I should watch this, should've just read the comments first). I had no idea that the franchise was this huge I just stumbled upon the other monogataris whilst reading the comment sections in Crunchyroll. I was a little stood back on the idea of watching all of this at once, but now I am really interested.
I actually did semi chronological order and loved it btw. I get that it requires management, so it makes people cry but I found it pretty worth it 😊
I really just wanted to see the relationship buildup between hitagi and araragi because it was so intresting,but it turns out the anime doesn't really show the buildup overtime, I never really got to see Araragi and Hitagi ever hang out together other in the series Bakemonogatari and Nisemonogatar.
You are a legend.
Thank you.👍
Appreciate the effort. But I think new viewers can just follow the release order. Just binge them and the chronological order will be less confusing.
tru just watch it in random order, so long as you binge watch it, it'll all make sense at the end ツ
@@noodleboi6711 it's not random, dipshit
That was helpful sensei, arigatou☺️
I started with Kizumonogatari (which got me into the franchise) and then watched the anime release order
Do you recommend anime release order? Or semi-chronological? I get that apparently watching the anime release order starts all confusing but then things get answered as you watch but do you actually have to figure it out for things to be answered? or is it easy to understand? because I wouldn’t like to have to think about things too hard to figure it out, I want to just enjoy it
Armando Liriano i wonder the exact same thing
Asal I don’t anymore, I spoke to multiple light novel readers and found out the correct watch order and I’m almost finished with Monogatari, in fact it even became my second most favorite anime, I’ve even gone as far to make over 70 people watch it and even more by the day. The correct watch order is the light novel watch order
Armando Liriano so i should watch bake > kizu > nise > the rest of the anime release order?
Asal No not the anime release order, The order you just said would be correct but just search up the light novel watch order and watch it that way
Thanks now i can watch monogatari series without worried about how these episodes works
i can finally watch this series!
thank you :D
Nice guide successfuly completed the whole series nice anime :D
i cant say im a fan of this whole shuffling around episodes. starting monogatari second season at episode 7 felt wrong, like cheating. I agree with watching kizu early (i watched after bake) but personally i will watch mono 2nd season from 1 to 26.
in the end i decided to go with: bake>kizu>nise>neko>mono 2nd > owari> tsuki> >owari 2nd>hana>koyomi
im half way mono 2nd and i feel pretty happy so far.
ps: i actually went neko before nise but i kinda regret it now.
edit: i ended up watching hana koyomi on release order but i wished i watched them on light novel order.
Lmao how did you watch neko before nise when you've already arranged them?
Thanks for the vid it helped me a lot
lullll this is random but i can hear your lisp and it’s rly cute heeh

Thank you for clearing everything up!
Watching series in chronological order killing most of story and character grow. And you call "semi-chronological" better for first timers? I think they drop this the moment they need to just from 1 season to another to watch few eps and go back again. It's more confusing than anime itself.
This anime is meant to be watching like it was released. There is many foreshadowing and retrospection in it, so structure of story is just great when you watch it like this.
With my years watching things like steins gate, fate, and whatever Watching by release is never the right answer
Good video man
I'd say, for semi-chronologically, watch Koyomimonogatari before Owarimonogatari Season 2.
The last episode directly connects to Mayoi Hell.
I was able to understand monogatari a lot more easily with the help of the list u provide
Thank you 😊😊
The Chronological Order...
th-cam.com/video/ahBacxxOYiA/w-d-xo.html
Episode 6, 11, 16 of the second season are summary episodes
Thanks man u help me a lot
I can here to find out the chronological order, I didn't think I would get a whole explanation of the space time continuum
Thank you im saved i can understand this finally
"don't worry about koyomimonagatari"
What about the last 2 episodes because I'm pretty sure those are major events?. I watched and I was shook. Is it meant to be how it ends?
@@Alt-fg3ml tbh I finished all the series and I still am lost on how it segues into S2 owari, maybe I just need to rewatch it
@@Alt-fg3ml The mere fact that it doesnt recommend LN order as the only correct order, paired with chrono for a second viewing, already discounts it.
@@AE-or7xd i have a fiew more ep left before i finish all the seasons, will there be some more or is this the end of the franchise, cus i really loved it
@@jovanadzic6160 The author has like 10 more novels written and is written 3 more. We don't know if he'll continued thee novels, he just might because that's what he's been doing: finishing a season or novel volume saying this one is the last and then just writing more, and more, and more. Shaft has said they'll continue adapting so long as the author keep writing, but we have yet to see news for Orokamonogatari from the Off Season novels.
*me who has seen index,fate and plays kingdomhearts*: a new challenger approaches!
Koyomimonogatari is important
I'm gonna watch in release 😎👍

Blame the awful video, not the series. Just watch it in the order the novels where released and you will be fine.

@@jakematildo-damadenoche9446 I didn’t read the manga yet
@@jakematildo-damadenoche9446 but probably
I think this is why many people who watch the series initially for the memes and curiosity's sake sort of opt out early...
I highly recommend that you watch it in the anime release order with one main difference. Swap Kizumonogatari 1,2 and 3 and Koyomimonogatari. Koyomimonogatari ends on a cliffhanger that ties into Owari Second Season. Make sure you watch Koyomi because it is important.
Also, don’t do the Chronological or Semi-Chronological order. Just don’t.
thanks
for the people who didnt understand the semi-chronological order (and also for me)
here it is
bake monogatari
nise monogatari
then the movies part 1 2 3
then neko monogatari
s2 7 - 10
then s2 17-20
owari monogatari 8-12
s2 1-5
owari monogatari 1-7
s2 12-15
s2 21-26
tsukimonogatari
owari monogatari 2nd season
zokumonogatari
then finally hanamonogatari
koyomimonigatari is optional
@lilboa t! ne liboa t
The best for new watchers is anime order, except watch Kizu after Bake.
I agree with this
I always recommend Kizu after Owari, then Koyomi, and Owari2............. I don't know I think it links very well with how Owari ends. I think that the way the anime is done, Kizu could be watched at any point in time, but it fits better after Baku or after Owari.
I think Kizu after Nise is better. The discussions in that series with Shinobu are improved by not knowing her backstory.
I agree because I watch the whole series of Monogatari using Semi Chronological.
i agree. Nise feels better after kizu and i can only take so much teasing before i just give up on a mistery. i dont like to feel like instead of teasing me the series is taking for granted information that i dont know
Watching the Anime release order would be one hell of a ride, so its highly recommended. With a minor change that watch Hanamonogatari after Zokumonogatari bcoz it literally spoils the future events of rest of series.
@@PelStrike
Ok
why do you feel the need to create the "semi chronological order" and fool people to watch it like that? you even said that you shouldn't worry about koyomi monogatari even tho it's directly related to owari , honestly one of the worst if not the worst video explaining monogatari order
Dang, I ended up here somehow after listening to Happy Bite on Pandora. And now I'm itching to watch an anime with a convoluted timeline, thanks!
UwU
U sound like that one kid from stranger things
And this is why to this day I still haven't watched the Monogatari Series because it seems like every few months there is a new and different order to watch the series and other people online change their order all the time.
@BotPlayerLegacy no it's not your head. Ever since a couple 2-3 years after this series has come out I've seen and read so many different ways to watch the series. Some different, some similar to each other, an some similar but eith slight changes. I may just say fuck it an Russian Roulette pick one of them just to watch it already. It's because of the different orders of things. Like how the guy somewhat states in this video. Like release order of thr mangas/light novels, the chronological order of the mangas/light novels, the semi chronological order of the manga. Those orders go same for the anime itself. It's crazy!
Joe The Juggalo The way I watched it was the anime release order BUT I watched the Kizumonogatari movies right after bakemonogatari and then continued with the anime release order. I found it cleared everything up about certain characters and it helps with understanding some conversations in the arcs after the first season while keeping some aspects of mystery in the later arcs and it made it more enjoyable, at least for me.
@@coolguy10221 I may do that myself. I normally just watch animes like that but when I found out about this anime a few years after it was released I was already neck need in "watch it this way, watch it that way".
