I’ve not properly looked at this season yet, but I’ve started Suicide Squad Isekai and NieR Automata. SSI is kinda meh so far (seen 3 eps). Harley is really fun, but the rest is meh. Despite the anime look, it doesn’t feel like it at all. Also, way too many references to other works of WB. NieR was a great start. Very interesting and despite having played the game, I find myself wondering where it’s gonna go.

I do want to watch Senpai wa Otokonoko and the new Monogatari. I liked the webcomic for the former a lot and am curious how they’re gonna handle it in the anime. The latter I will need to rewatch the entire Monogatari series first, so it might not be this season that I’ll pick up it

Yea, that’s the thing haha.

Yeah, that’s fair

I forgot this was coming out. I think I’ll need to do a full rewatch first.

There’s quite a bit before all this, starting with Bakemonogatari.

There are many recommended watch orders like book order, chronological order and broadcast order, but I usually recommend the broadcast order. Partially because of stylistic changes over the years, but mostly because they did this order for a reason

I don’t fully agree with this. I’d just follow the broadcast order (though Kizu is a weird one). Considering Hitagi End, I think having Hanamonogatari after that makes more sense, like it was broadcasted. Same with Koyomimonogatari. The end of that ties directly into Owarimonogatari S2, so I would put that between OMG S1 and 2, as broadcasted.

I know the anime doesn’t follow the order of the books, but the anime didn’t change it up for sake of it, so it has always seemed strange to me to change that order.

Oh shit, that was a really interesting episode. Quite a deviation from the game, but a really cool one. Also really cool to see a Replicant location.

Let’s hope so

All that to say that these seem to be the wrong tools for what you’re actually trying to do.

Yeah, seems like it. Thanks for the explanations though.

I have previously professed to hating Clannad so much I couldn’t watch past the first couple of episodes.

Damn, that sure is a hot take
