Let's get over the superficial things first: Hitagi's new clothes
I would hardly call the "fight" (I would use "meeting" or "confrontation") with Kaiki anticlimactic. Indeed, the exchange between Kaiki, Hitagi and Koyomi only reaffirmed my love for Kaiki. He is an interesting fellow, to say the least. Just having Karen punch him in the face and be done with it would be a tradegy; I'd love to listen to him some more.

I love this guy!
The fight scenes in the Monogatari series have always been special in a way. It's as if the creators understand the action is not the main point of the series, so they take some liberties. The scenes are exaggerated just perfectly. Motorways breaking up, characters being thrown through concrete etc.
The detailed action also nicely balances the heavy dialogue of the series.
The scene where Hitagi pretty much forced Koyomi on herself was pretty awesome too. THE picture of the episode.
For random lulz
