Bakemonogatari Episode 12 Review – You Don’t Need Sex To Make A Story Good

Like the title suggests, if you are someone who think (or love to think) sex scene could make a story in anime better… or at least make you wait there to watch the “scene”, the latest episode of Bakemonogatari will change every way you think of sex.

Hell, you won’t think sex scene is necessary at all – a pure gold of story is enough to make you sit, and watch some high school teenagers holding hand.

No explosion.

No blood spilling all over the place.

Bakemonogatari Episode 12 begins with Senjougahara and Koyomi Araragi eating together. When Koyomi want to have his first bite of the day at school, she began to say:

“We’re going to a date”

and then he dropped the food. Shen then ask Koyomi to open his mouth, “Uaa…” but instead of pulling that food into his mouth, she put it at his cheek. Nice way to begin a conversation.

“Do you have any complaints… no, any questions?”

After all that, he agreed to go on a date and which he in his heart said: “Fuck, yes!” And then he noted how this going to be a day he is going to remember.

She then drags him into a car driven by her father. Araragi questions why she does that even though they’re going on a date (her father is in front of them, driving). She then asked her why he loves her. He hesitates and saw her and her father together, which he nervously said, “Yes, I love you.”

In the car she verbally abuses him and when Araragi said her junior, Kanbaru is a bit kinky, Hitagi proceeds into talking a super-dirty thing which made him give up to think how perverted or kinky Kanbaru is.

She then proceeds to whisper to him something that would make Kanbaru looks innocent and pure girl.

But there’s one thing I want to say: watch it, you son or daughter of a gun. You’ll love every second of it. I mean it. My taste is usually right.

Screen caps of the first few minutes before a lot of other works start to bother me:

Something to kill for, at least for me.

I don't know if I want her to be my girlfriend, especially with that kind of remark. But she's kinda cute.

There’s no sex in it. And it’s probably the best story I ever watched. Period. Maybe there’s one or two out there can match this kind of writing. Kudos to the writer, Nisio Isin for the novel and the team behind Bakemonogatari’s anime team. Will buy the DVD when it arrives in Malaysia guaranteed.
