The only point of contention in the watch order is when to watch Kizumonogatari. Some recommend watching it second, right after Bake; this is based on the release order of the novels. Other recommend watching it second to last, right before Owari; this is based on the release order of the anime. I side with the latter, but the former is probably the more popular order. It's basically a question of when you want to go into the MC's backstory, in a series that otherwise focuses on the stories of everyone except the MC.

Hey! I've been trying to watch your reactions of Saga of Tanya the Evil, but for episodes 5 and onwards, the videos don't seem to exist.

SAL

87-88 normal length episodes (depending on which version you download for one of the parts) 12 half-length episodes 3 movies

I agree, this is definitely the best order, i've heard about so many people watching kizu after owari 1 or koyomi and it always pains me because i think it is just ruining their experience for a bit of mystery.

Good reaction, definitely one of those shows where it benefits to pay more attention and think. A good measure for the quickly flashing texts: If it is too fast to read without pausing, it's probably not super duper crucial information, but it can add to the experience if you manage to read some of it! I believe the best ordering to go for is: 1. Bakemonogatari 2. Kizumonogatari 3. Nisemonogatari 4. Nekomonogatari: Kuro 5. Monogatari Series: Second Season 6. Hanamonogatari 7. Tsukimonogatari 8. Owarimonogatari Season 1 9. Koyomimonogatari 10. Owarimonogatari 2nd Season 11. Zoku Owarimonogatari

Don't worry about shinobu now you will get more answers later about her. Btw it is translated in this version as heavy stone god but i also saw a version where it is translated as emotion god. Nisioisin loves wordplay and it is very difficult for non japanese people to understand a lot of the worldplay. An example in this episode crab=gami and god=kami.
