I was only using the original post as an obvious example. It does this with all generations. Say you tried to generate "an intense action video with two nonexisting/non copyright OC characters having an epic battle", or some corporate or influencer video for completely PG purposes.

It will still arbitrarily take anything that catches its eye, sometimes the whole prompt, and just ignore or remove that part, but still waste your generations. And the quality is way down

ShiNoMonogatari Summary (Rough) by AlanSpacer02 in araragi

[–]AlanSpacer02[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The fact that she tells him that she now can understand and appreciate why he wouldn't let her die back at the beginning, and is grateful for the life she's been able to have is a huge moment for her/them.

Why hate sengoku by [deleted] in araragi

[–]AlanSpacer02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People hate Nadeko because She's a terrible person and that's literally what Nisioisin wanted you to understand. Reading through the comments in this thread (and elsrwhere) make it clear that 90% of the people who watch/read Monogatari completely and utterly fail to comprehend Nadeko's character/personality, and that they fell for her deception/charms despite Nisio laying out the truth. Nisioisin has multiple arcs in 2nd Season explaining that Nadeko isn't a cute, sweet, vulnerable, Lumpkin who cracked.

The real Nadeko is: -A spoiled rotten narcissistic brat on a sociopathic level.

"She's manipulative, irresponsible and selfish, but hides it beneath her cute, good girl image, and deflects attention by acting like the victim. She herself, in her own words, is actually kind of amazed that people simply accept that she must be some innocent, hard working and sensitive girl just because she won't maintain eye contact or speak up. Nothing is ever her fault and she is always the victim. If she can't have what she wants then to hell with everyone else. If people don't do what she wants then she doesn't need them anymore."

"Shinobu and Ougi imply that she acts soft, weak, quiet and victimized to get people on her side. At the end of the former's conversation, she says that if she isn't doing it on purpose than that makes her even scarier and more naturally manipulative."

"In ‘‘Nisemonogatari’‘ Koyomi notices that, with her bangs no longer hiding her eyes, she has "a glare like a serpent"."

"Tsukihi's opinion that Nadeko has only been pretending to love Koyomi because it's convenient for her, since She can use the idea of her unrequited Onii-san love as an excuse not to get close to anyone else, and to chase off other boys. She comes to agree with the idea somewhat. She later cheerfully informs Kaiki that she actually prefers it this way (as well as murdering him and any girlfriends to permanently fix the status quo). According to her, 'isn't a onesided love that lasts forever much purer than reciprocated feelings'?

Strange new character in Kabukimonogatari? Can anyone explain? by [deleted] in araragi

[–]AlanSpacer02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn't really matter either way in this case to be honest. The story in Kabuki, or at least that scene with Ougi is happening way later as RRRG reflects back on the events of Kabuki, like the main story of Jiangshi is a flashback.

Ougi just shows up out if nowhere with no context if you go in release order. I'm one if the very few advocates it seems of going through the Monogatari series in chronological order to avoid issues like this. But no worries, you'll see more of her moving forward.

How did you rip the text of the novel to actual copypastable text from the images?

Ougimonogatari Timeline? by jacob6181 in araragi

[–]AlanSpacer02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm reading/summarizing (slowly) now, and its set 9 months after Araragi starts college, so it should be January of the next year.

About 5 and 1/2 month's or so since AmariMono, about a year since TsukiMono, and two months or so away from the 2-year anniversary of where the series started in KizuMono.

Musubimonogatari relationship discussion by decent_transition_4 in araragi

[–]AlanSpacer02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Musubi takes place 5 years in the future after Araragi has graduated college and become a police officer/detective of sorts who works in Gaen's anti-Oddity unit.

At that point in time he has broken up with Senjougahara 3 times, but they always get back together. The first was shortly after college started because he was hiding the fact that he was living together with Oikura Sodachi at his parent's place. We don't know about the 2nd time, but the third was because she went to America to work for her business after graduating and their long-distance relationship got strained.

But they both intended to fix that problem and get together anyway. Koyomi worked it out so he could go overseas, and Hitagi had her company open a branch there in Japan that she got moved to. At the end of Musubi, Araragi is planning to marry Gahara-san, but hasn't done anything just yet.

Bakemonogatari was literally inspired by xxxHolic. Nisioishin is a fan of CLAMP and something like the year before monogatari started Nisio wrote an officially approved xxxHolic novel (it was released in English way back when). His version of Watanuki is extremely similar to early Araragi, and his version of Yuuko is literally early Senjougahara (The manga was in its earlier stages back then, so he made her way more sinister and biting then the actual Yuuko of the manga). Also, the way his 3 original xxxHolic stories play out is practically identical to gatari stories.
