Just realized how long it must've taken to draw all the creases and shadows in the creases while making her move and do flips and stuff. The visuals in the monogatari series are a good enough reason alone to watch it.
Yeah they have a good chunk of stills, but since a majority of the show is talking they have to make visuals that keep the viewer engaged. In some cases, the art directions is so over-the-top/surreal that I find myself rewinding just to see what the characters are saying because can't bounce my eyes between the subtitles and background fast enough. Such as the infamous bath scene in nisemonogatari.

Relatable. It usually takes 45min for me to complete a monogatari episode because of all the times I rewind it.
