The  :blah: was kinda the point. I liked it, and I don't usually like anime.

It found it quite enjoyable. Too bad we have to wait a month in between each 50 minute episode.

Bakemonogatari and Katanagatari are completely unrelated.  Bakemonogatari is from a series of awesome books (the anime covers the first half of them or so).  Katanagatari's source material?  I dunno, but it sure isn't the monogatari books.  There isn't any real reason to compare them, since there isn't any point of relation between them outside of the naming convention.

Also, speaking of the naming convention (and this is just heresay), I heard that Katanagatari only changed it's naming convention from Katana Monogatari based on the success of Bakemonogatari.  With the fact that Bakemono came out first and seeing how the wordplay actually makes sense (Bakemono + monogatari and share the "mono"!  Brilliant!) compared to Katanagatari's seemingly lazy imitation (Katana + monogatari and uh...well just get rid of the "mono" I guess?  Bandwagon!), I'd believe it.

Anyway, I don't plan on watching this new anime because the art style doesn't suit my interests and the story synopsis didn't hook me.

The first two episodes have managed to get my attention and I plan on continuing the series as it comes out.
