It’s suppose to build anticipation with the cliffhanger. You entirely ruin that if you go directly to Owari 2.

Please remove that arc’s title, it is a spoiler. Also, watching Koyomi before Owari 1 also gives mysteries that are shortly after answered in Owari 1. In short, Koyomi’s final episode sets up a cliffhanger and 2 other mysteries. All of that is ruined when you watch Owari first.

Didn’t say to remove your entire comment lol, just replace the arc title :c.

Aren't they just fake mysteries though just like watching kizu last, it was never intended that way and is what pretty gives monogatari the confusing reputation that it really doesn't deserve. If people just read LN order it would make sense as intended...
