Robazoid 12/11/18 6:25:04 AM #173: | After a long break, I finally went back to continue Monogatari, watching the first three arcs of Owarimonogatari (Ougi Formula, Sodachi Riddle, and Sodachi Lost). Monogatari has had its ups and downs for me, ranging from the 10/10 Hanekawa arcs to the 1/10 Nisemonogatari arcs. I didn't hate these three, but they were definitely closer to the bottom than the top. Most of it was just boring. It didn't feel like a Monogatari story either, even the visuals and text screens felt phoned in. Anyway, the third arc revealed that they had met even earlier than that when Araragi's parents rescued her. Just... what. The police were already aware of her situation then. And, after apparently responding to the situation and finding it so severe that they removed the child from her parents, she just... wandered back? And no one stopped her? No one looked for her in the most likely place to look? No one cared? That's not how child endangerment works. Araragi is still an idiot (I mean, you really needed forty clues to work out what happened to her mom, I got it the instant they made a big deal about the door being locked even though it wasn't relevant to the story, practically making it a neon sign of a clue) but none of this is his fault, either. The only thing that I might have cared about from any of this was finally learning something about Ougi, but aside from Hanekawa finding her dangerous there wasn't anything interesting on that front either. Just a lot of back-and-forths that didn't go anywhere. Ah well, the next arc in this season is apparently about Shinobu and not Sodachi/Ougi, so hopefully I'll like it better. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** ... Copied to Clipboard! |
