This is related to "favorites" but somewhat off topic. I'm trying to avoid making a new thread that won't last long. I am poundering and thinking of a word that is less than Favorites but greater than Recommended. View my website in my signature and click on "Anime Collection" and browse through there, you'll understand what I mean. Thanks, and I appreciate the help.

Really? Half the show hasn't even aired yet.

Then it already means the show is that awesome!  :D

It's the best anime I've watched so far in my short 4 months of anime life.

Ah, yeah I figured you were probably fairly new into anime if a show you haven't completed is already your favorite. It's a great feeling. For me it was Death Note.

Well, I have been watching animes for two years now and Bakemonogatari looks like it will be the best anime I have seen, if it continues to be as good as it is right now. It's really a great show and I can see how it'd make someone's favorite thus far.

Aye, it will definitely be one of my top 5 if it continues to be as awesome as it is.

It's what I would call a 'loved' series.

Order of appreciation:
"I liked that series"
"I loved that series"
"That series is my favorite"

(ex: Azumanga Daioh isn't my favorite, but I loved it!)

Then there are some series which are soo unfathomably godly, all you can say is:
"FDASHF$#*%645435^453!!!!!!"

I'm enjoying Bakemonogatari as well, but the first 2 episodes were the best so far. Since then it's sort of been hit or miss. The 3rd episode where they sat and talked was downright boring. I hate when they try to disguise a weak episode with SHAFT flashing text and animation gimmicks that add nothing to the show.

The show has fantastic art and character design, and I think it would be better if they relied on that more than some of the useless animation gimmicks. SHAFT is really good sometimes, but it's felt forced lots of times during Bakemonogatari for me.

At least there's quite a bit of delicious Senjougahara art available to "satisfy" until it's done. She's like the Mio of this season.

I have to agree with you Mele.

I have a hard time placing any series at the #1 greatest anime of all time. I like a lot of different series for a lot of different reasons. I like Clannad After Story because it was sad, but other than that I found nothing extra special about it. I liked Code Geass because it was smart and had a lot of action/drama, but nothing else was fantastic in the series. How do I decide which one was better? Rating anime is much easier than setting an ordered favorite list.

I totally disagree, there is a lot happening in episode 3, but I think it'd be better to debate this in the proper thread.

I'm not arguing that things didn't happen in the episode. I'm arguing that it was boring to watch, regardless of how much plot advancement occurred.

But I suppose you're right, this isn't the proper place to discuss it. I have a tendency to go off on tangents...

Thanks, Cubes. I'll go with "Loved". It's the most fitting that's below Favorites but above Recommended.
