The aim of this short review is not to get into the technical side of the anime as this is my very first review and Im not going to pretend I know how to do it. It is my humble way to share with you the feelings I have about this anime. This spoilerfree review will cover Zoku Owarimonogatari as well as my experience with the entire monogatari series and will try to portray in my eyes why this work is unmatched in every aspect of an anime and can be called a masterpiece. My first experience with the series does not stick at all with the opinion that I have of the series now since I took more than 3 years to finish the first opus Bakemonogatari. First of all I discovered an extravagantly animated anime strewn with sequences containing text too fast to read which supported a plot as mysterious as bizarre with very atypical characters that I did not understand. In fact it would be fair to say that I didnt understand anything at all. The misunderstanding that I had for the series quickly turned into discomfort which caused this prolonged break. But when I decided to let go of my old feelings three years later and paid more attention to the many details that this show contains I found myself gradually hooked by a unique atmosphere built of all the very details I did not understand before. I realised that this show was a giant puzzle and each season developing a certain character was a piece completing the unordered chronology of the series. Everything started to sound more and more correct during the episodes until the second season of the show which orchestrated in such a unique way the characters remarkably well developed during the previous seasons. All the emotions came to me perfectly: fear intrigue anguish solace and many more delivered by stunning visuals and ost which mixed well with each other. While I was already filled with this experience so unique in the world of the japanese animation that I knew the show surprised me once again by introducing the most mysterious and intriguing character in the series so far Ougi Oshino in a final arc separated in two parts. And finally after two whole years came Zoku Owarimonogatari this separated arc serving as an epilogue to a real singularity among animes. In just a few hours a digest is delivered to us which loses by no means the peculiar and unique flavour of the series following a completely new plot to which Araragi is confronted despite himself. We discover a new facet of each character that we learned to love during the series. Thus this epilogue closes magnificently a series which I have no doubt marked the minds of many and I hope will continue to do so.
