Wandering around off-screen doing fatherly things?
It's been noted that background characters don't appear in this series (at the very least, there don't seem to be any background characters with dialogue in the novels, from what I've heard, and Shaft seems to be taking extra care to avoid showing them. Remember the OP that consisted of nothing but Mayoi, and the construction worker[?] icons that stand in for people in Kanbaru's flasback?). Since Hitagi mentions she did work for him to earn money and whatnot, I don't think he's a bad father or anything. Just not enough a part of the immediate story to warrant an appearance.

Bit of a silly question but...
While checking the characters section in the official Bake site, I noticed that Senjougahara's name was actually written instead as Senjyogahara. http://www.bakemonogatari.com/chara/ And was wondering wich is the correct one? A mistake on the official site, or are both correct ways to write down her name?

That's likely a typo error on the website. Given the sheer number of obvious typo/spelling errors in the series so far, I'm not particularly surprised to find another mistake here.
Senjougahara would be the typical way to transliterate her name from hiragana. Alternatively, we could write Senjōgahara, but that would be a bit inconvenient, given the need for one special character. |

At first I though it was the Kunrei-shiki romanization system, which is the official system used in Japan. The internet tends to use another system which a lot of people think has more intuitive pronunciations.
Then I looked it up. It's just wrong. |

Not part of this season anyway. The anime is based on the Bakemonogatari novels, which have 5 arcs ending with Tsubasa Neko. Koyomi Vamp is part of the prequel novel Kizumonogatari, and therefore is not going to be part of this season.
Given how popular the show is turning out to be though, I'd be very surprised if they weren't thinking about animating Kizumonogatari in the future (along with Nisemonogatari etc). |

Why does Nadeko only get 2 episodes and why are 3 of Tsubasa's being show online and not all 4? |

That way looks to be legitimate. I may get that text book out later and make sure. |

I'm assuming our subber groups will continue their activities (though I wonder what the resolution of the webbed episodes will be). I figure someone will do the DVD R2 torrents later... with the current economy, I'm really not counting on this one ever seeing R1 (though I'll order it delivered via rocket if it happens).

guess i'll ask this here, read through and dont really see an answer to it
I just d.loaded the epps of this that are out so far and only had time to watch a few.. kinda interesting but what the heck is with the stupid flash's with text? the animation seems quite poor as well. I did a little searching online and i guess the studio animating it, Shaft, is notorious for being quite cheap and spreading itself to thin. I saw an article about episode 10 having an absurd amount of those little text boxes, with a lot just saying 'scene missing' and next to no animation at the end whats the deal with this? Is the studio just this bad quality? are they running out of time? Trying to play it off as a certain style seems like a cop out to me. Just wondering if anyone knew whats going on, im wondering if its even worth watching the rest of this |

Some fixes have been made on versions of the episode that broadcast on other stations, and presumably it's all gonna be better on the DVD. Still, this series has overall, so far as my eye can tell, been significantly better animated than most of Shaft's other shows, and the finished parts of episode 10 were still high quality.
