Unique in a good way

At first I thought this anime was kind of weird, like most people would, and up till the end it still was but once I realized I shouldn't try to compare this with other series, I saw that it was good in its own style.

Each character's background story is good and mysteries. It takes a while before you fully understand what's going on. It's a detail but I liked how they changed the intro depending on the arc.

Bakemonogatari's trumpcard is its dialogues. Sometimes they're a bit fast, maybe a bit complicated but they're usually interesting and even funny.

This show uses some weird animation and frankly I don't really like it but it probably fits the story. Some images are nothing but one collor and some text. Even fotographs are used.

I had to get used to it but I liked this anime though I hated how I had to wait for some episodes but that's mainly my own fault.
