Wait. It's out already?!
edit: It's 30 minutes long. It starts with a live action shot of an egg cracking. That's how you know it's good.
It retains a lot of what I love about the Monogatari series. Lengthy dialogue paired with its unique visual style that sets it apart from a lot of anime. It still has that really harsh and bloomy lighting style that creates weird geometry from shadows, the space around the characters are surreal, the style of animation interchanges, and the cuts are quick.
I think the music is a bit different from what we usually had though but a lot of sound effects (like when the characters talk sometimes) are still there.
Nadeko really changed a lot. This shot explains it:
She's my second favorite character in the series so I'm happy we're getting more of her especially since she's the character who had some dramatic changes.
The voice actors are great! We just saw Hayami Saori's performance in Giji Harem and her emotionless monotone voice as Ononoki sets the role apart. Everyone sounds just as they did over a decade ago (especially Hanazawa Kana whose voice is unforgettable!).
We didn't get an opening theme yet but we do have the ED theme with Yoasobi's performance and Hajime Ueda's illustrations of the characters.
I've never read the novels, so I couldn't tell whether the adaption is faithful or not.
A pleasant Sunday morning!
Here's a compilation of some of my favorite shots (in a spoiler tag so it doesn't take up the entire page):

Nadeko's room is different than it was before. Now she has large shelves of manga and her bed blocks the entrance door.
This one was really well done! It shows the passage of time in an animated comic book frame.
I remember this setting when Hitagi pushes Koyomi over and uses the Eye of Horus to count the number of girls Koyomi hung out with that day (including Kanbaru's Grandmother). There are also other memorable locations like the park.
Platinum Disco dance:
I love this heat map image. Ononoki is a doll so it would make sense that she's "cold".
... and many many more.

It's out, and it's amazing as usual
