Bakemonogatari for me is like an old friend that you've known for as long as you can remember. It's the kind of a friend whom you love and can hang out with at any time, but you do KNOW him.

In many ways, I may want to hang out with this friend more than anyone else. Sometimes, meeting new people and making new impressions is stressful and difficult, so it's always good to have friends you can fall back on and know they'll be good to you. A lot of the times, that's what you do when you are rewatching a show you love, but for me, Bakemonogatari was that all along.
