Wow, you really are spoiler phobic
I thought that was pretty easy to figure out in Bakemonogatari, they dropped more than enough hints. Hell, I figured it out in the very first episode after hearing Araragi's thoughts on her. I guess it's not as obvious as I thought after all. |

There is no way a movie can do a whole novel justice. Besides in terms of length, the monogatari series is double times longer than other novels. Kizu is 345 pages so it basically has 600 pages worth of material. A 2 hour movie would have 5 pages of material in every minute. Hell, a single dialog from Araragi is already 30 seconds right there.

Anyway, it's not because we knew nothing about the character. They may have dropped hints, but they weren't big or anything. We also knew nothing about what happened in the past.

By the way, I'm don't know if anyone have post this here already but here goes:
『傾物語(カブキモノガタリ)』 蘇る武者と迷子の少女。はしゃぎ戯れ舞い踊り、終には傾く物語。 第閑話 マヨイキョンシー 『猫物語(ネコモノガタリ)』 それは誰かに禁じられた遊び。人が獣に至る物語。 第禁話 つばさファミリー What I got from this was: Revival of the samurai and the lost girl. Something about dancing, the final slope story. Barrier Story, Mayoi Jiangshi It is forbidden to play with someone. The story of man and beast. Forbidden Story, Tsubasa Family The one thing I found weird was that Nisio just started on Kabuki and the publishers had the gulls to say both books will be out by 2010. |

It depends on how they balance things out. The plot is important but not every sentences in the novel are equally important. In this case, I'm quite sure that the one who upset will be only those who read novel. Bakemonogatari is one of the best adaptation. IMO Despite that, novel readers still moaned that they cut line "xxx" or said that this wouldn't do justice to the novel. It may sound selfish but if the adaptation can please the majority who don't read novel then I'm fine with that.

I think I've only just realised how brilliant this show is.
I haven't watched it for months, but I just listened to the full OP because it came up on shuffle, and it brought a tear to my eye at the start of the second verse. Just, perfection.

I don't think you can pack a whole book into one movie without cutting many of its element. My best thought is OVA. But i hate when SHAFT doing OVA because of their lack in time management. @zato_1one Well, after reading Hitagi arc translation, i can say that Bakemonogatari is a near-perfect novel adaptation. They know what line they're putting into anime and what line they shouldn't. |

Kizumonogatari as a 12-episodes series would be extremely boring, seriously. If you cut out some of meta-jokes and expressions (since it's visual medium), I'm sure it could be fit nicely into 2~3 hours movie, especially considering Nisio's action scene description is always unnecessary long.

Honestly, I think the Bake season was too short, they should have added one more episode for Nadeko and one more Tsubasa. |

My point is - adaptation is a fine line in which radicals like "keep everything!" or "rewrite from scratch!" (Vampire Bund) rarely fly. |

It seems like Medeka is got the VOMIC treatment. What is VOMIC you ask? Well, basically it's a short video of manga frames accompanied with voice work by seiyuus. Now, guess who is doing the male lead....... SHAFT's favorite male seiyuu, Hiroshi Kamiya. Also, guess who is doing the loli character of the series....Emiri Katō. The best part is that the voice these two use is EXACTLY the same as the ones they used in Bake.
I wonder if Nisio handpicked these two for the thing because of their work in Bake. EDIT: Added video Last edited by omimon; 2010-02-12 at 18:46. |
