Monogatari Series

Post by nil8r »

Bakemonogatari, or Bake Monogatari by NisiOisiN
Since there is now an anime, I am sure a lot of people are going to want to read the novel itself, for various reasons (censored scenes, impatience, more details, etc.). Also, there is a prequel that was merely summarized in 30 seconds in the anime, kizumonogatari, and I believe there is one, possibly two sequel novels, although I can't remember what they are called.
If this topic has already been brought up, please ignore this, I just wasn;t sure if it had or net yet. Thank you.

even though this is a very confusing series...and quite mature in its own respect it is really awesome. the dialouge is probably the main reason as the rest is a play on words and mispronounciation of them as well the anime is pretty good but really toned down

hmmmm...

seems like Amoirsp has posted a "teaser" from this novel.

If anyone is curious, they can read the script here:

Apparently it isn't a teaser, it has been authorised by Velocity7, so it'll be flagged as a UAP until the required pages have been completed.

Good news, you bakemono lovers, We have all the necessary pages created, however I have to say the supplied chapter, is surprisingly short.

Will have to confer with Velocity7 if it is completed or not, so far the conclusion is that if it is complete then it will not satisfy our one complete chapter requirement.

It is complete.
In Kizumonogatari there are 18 chapters and some of them are really short.

The one who posted the script was Velocity7. Amoirsp only did a small edit.

Thanks for the verification Vaelis, in that case when the 2nd chapter is published then I will not have any objection to it.

It might seem unusual that a Supervisor's own project has to be a focus of my attention, but the fact is that besides the publishing of "Haruhi" by the Big Boss himself no other Supervisor has published one personally before.

So it is in our best interest that I keep an eye on it, just to nip in the bud of questions of "who watches the Watchmen?" variety.

The only one who can publish indiscriminately on the wiki without check is the Big Boss himself, he who holds the life line of Baka-Tsuki in his very hands!

*trembles before the big Boss*

:lol: :roll: :wink:

Oh god yes. Please, I really want to see this series translated. :lol:

The show is fantastic but I hear they cut practically everything out of the books... I don't get how it still works...

I'd give my left hand to have this, seriously.

Ahh, It would be....if there was a part 002 listed, now that you mention it. However considerings this is the kizumonogatari, which is the prelude of Bakemonogatari story. i.e. describing koyomi vampire-fication.

if you assume that the first chapter is a introduction/Prelude/Preview of the volume, It is safe to predict that the second chapter will consist of the main bulk of the story.

But it's nothing that I can predict with any certainty, as I do not have any of the source material, however it would be slightly insulting to think that this important aspect of the main male character development would stop at such a short chapter.

Ah, that is, if Velocity7 decides to stick to this volume.....knowing him he might just pick another chapter from another volume just to meet the minimum standard....... :roll:

Pray to haruhi he won't be so evil.... :twisted: :lol:


p>S: anyone read the Bakemonogatari review on random curiosity?

Yes oni I read that review, and you just alerted me to that single instance of shameless advertising near the bottom of the comments page o_O

Gotta say, Patrik writes good reviews, even though I don't really agree with him sometimes
彼らの任務は一つ。
友軍のために死ぬこと。
誰にも知られることなく、散っていく命がありました。
決して語られることのない戦いがありました。
明日さえも見えない絶望の中で、今日を生きる権利すら奪われた戦士たち。
守るべき祖国から捨てられ、戦争の大義も、勝利の栄光も、自らの名前さえも奪われた戦士たち。
そして、理想を追い求め、自らの手を血に染める戦士たち。
戦場という絶望の中で、彼らが見た希望とは何だったのでしょうか?
そして、彼らが守り抜いたものとは、何だったでしょうか?
死か、それとも解放か?
これは、歴史を変えた名もなき戦士たちの物語。

Let the flooding begin!

...well i hope it does....if only kinny the speed demon would have a go on this novel, i'm sure it;ll be just as big as Haruhi!

Very interesting dialogue have been cut from the anime, that really defines the characters of this fantastic universe.

we just need to boost the profile and grab some interested translator!

It's time for Senjougahara Fascination! :mrgreen:
