But as long as an anime is adapting another medium, how it does so, is of centre concern, whether one is familiar with the original or not. If for no other reason, the manga/LN/games sell much more than BD/DVDs. Quote:

Here is the thing. I'm super bias. I was the one who originally translated the toothbrush scene a long time so I like to think that I had a part in it when it came to the hype of this episode. It's sorta like seeing the stepchild you adopted finally getting married. Even then I have to agree that this episode really is useless and doesn't contribute to the overall story. I admit that it really is just Nisio jacking off with a pen. With that in mind I STILL think that this is the best thing to happen to this series.

Good grief, I go to sleep for 6 hours, I wake up and I find that this thread has added as many pages (5 to 11), and beat out the previous ep for views alone inside a DAY of the ep airing, and how everyone's 'Mileage' is varying on this entire story, not just the fact that this ep has everyone's feathers ruffled for different reasons...
*heads over to San just to see what they wrote* ... Anime, this is why I can't stop watching ... XD

wow last time i checked the 10/10 was at 18 votes now at 95 .
now seriously. most of people raging about toothbrush scene was expected i did not say it in any other thread since it would be spoiler but i already expected this kind of reaction i even expect people to drop the series wich for me is plain ridiculous i won't lie, i ejoyed this episode and since i read the scene in the novel i'm happy cuz it was animated with perfection and a lot of details, even more it was given a full episode!! i'm a strong karen X koyomi fan. sorry but hitagi does not appeal to me at all just like some of you don't like a particular character i always tell people to open their minds while watching nisemono or else you would not enjoy it...pepople keep comparing bake to nise...as someone said nise was made as a way for nishio to relax and in in a comic way to show characters development after each arc in bake as it was seen from episode 1 to 3 of nise. post of the rages are probably because of the incest. you may say no try to argue it buts is likely your dislike for incest. i'm sure if it where hitagi who was at karen's place people would be "ahahaha my araragi-chan got hitagi now!!" don't get me wrong people should totally have their own opinion just like i loved this episode and other just hated it. now about this scene getting skiped...sorry we are western fans...some of us may not like it but i'm sure japanese fans are in awe moren than some of us the scene will not be skipped like someone said deal with it. and that will not the last time we see this kind of fetish (or worse) in nisemonogatari its pointless to argue about it's fan-service monogatari series works that way afterall plus come on its 95 10/10 against 3 1/10 no need to rage about the 1/10. now i shall go back to re-watch nisemono 8 ni shi shi shi!! |

I thought this episode would divide the fanbase more than ever and am very surprised that a crushing majority seems to have loved it going by the votes. I expected to see a lot more outrage in this thread, and while there is some, it appears to come from pretty much the same vocal minority as usual. Now don't get me wrong, I have nothing against criticism, and I encourage everybody to voice theirs. Reactions from both sides have been equally entertaining to read for me. And the thread would have beena bit boring if it had simply turned into a circlejerk.

~80% 10/10 is already amazingly good. I can't recall having seen that too often.

When Araragi said that there are girls who are more against their hair being touched than their body, he was talking about Nadeko. Episode 11 of Bake.
Also, I believe the best part about this episode isn't the fact that they almost commit incest but the fact that they continued after Tsukihi left. |

With foam that scene would look like it's from your regular bukkake (gokkun) movie (or is that just me?). Not that it would be a bad thing Quote:
Reading Kizu and watching Nise has really opened up Koyomi's character for me. The fanservice argumentation is really nothing new. It strikes me as somewhat distant, since I really don't have any kind of aversion towards sex or eroticism, especially when we're talking two dimensional character models.

One thing I saw on 4chan was that they were debating on if these two had sex after the episode ended. In the end they agreed that they just made out.
So what do you guys think? I'm pretty sure they didn't have sex but maybe a couple of kisses here and there wouldn't have hurt. |

If the criticism just comes down to "Oh no, this episode is about sexual themes, if I like it they might mistake me for an otaku" then I can just shake my head in disbelief at what anime fans have become now. Quote:
Then again you miss a lot of referential humor, like in Gintama or Excel Saga. Quote:
Then again Monogatari has plenty of satire of anime culture and its own medium. Or did you mean satire of society? For example the manga National Quiz was satire of society, it's just that it's satire of Japanese society. Quote:
And high level humor tends to be extreme. In Japan for example there is ero-guro-nonsense. Western high level humor may involve coprophilia. Uhmm... have you ever seen for example Monthy Python's Meaning of Life? Quote:
Then again, I once read a review of Sin City according to which it was sexist the scene of the girl who offered herself to the man who saved her. In a sense, even Senjougahara can be considered victim of a sexist conception Someone helps you? Just thank him. Quote:
And if you think about, nobody complained at the start of Mayoi Snail there was Hitagi, even though the story was supposed to be about Hachikuji and not her |

I don't think they had sex. Just not the vibe I got from that last scene. The scene which shows them falling down, holding eachother, has this "softer" aura to me. The background is clouded and glows in pink and in all cute rainbow colors.
Of course there is no way of knowing. Karen was awfully eager to offer her virginity to Koyomi. Probably for laughs but, considering that she thought Koyomi would insert the toothbrush into her butt, such impure thoughts/action may not be that farfetched. Koyomi was also ready to start exploring further before Tsukihi interrupted. I don't know. It was a confusing and heated situation. Maybe Tsukihi walking in on them gave them a wake up call, and they decided to just... "play it safe" before she gets back from the store.

Lets be honest, nobody watches it for that maybe some but they're very few people who fay dreams of a plot, this series is so character based that it doesn't matter what are they doing but the relationship (a weird one) between them. And as you can see here: Quote:

I find it really hilarious that Koyomi felt absolutely nothing washing his sister's naked body a few episodes ago, yet he went nuts from brushing her teeth. I loved this line: "Huh? Huh? Huh? This is just a possibility, but... could it be my sister is the cutest girl in the world?" That scene was so deliciously over-the-top
