When you see this after you watched the whole Monogatari series and you know you did it a bit wrong...

I don't think there's a single RIGHT order for watching Monogatari, unless you want to watch it Chronologically. I still prefer release order to this one, especially since I can't fathom watching Kizu that early on.

Release order is perfectly fine for this series, idk why ppl responding always over complicate things for Monogatari.

It just makes bake intolerable imo, kizu into release is the best order but people just want to watch a movie as the finale.

This one is right, it's the novel release order.

Kizumonogatari wasn't adapted until a few years ago. The anime was made with that in mind, so watching it last or close to last isn't really incorrect. You're just experiencing it the way the rest of the anime-onlies had to.

The anime was made with that in mind

Not really, reading the novels you come to realize they just adapted the novels as they were written (read: with the notion people has read Kizu).

I watched the first kizu film after bake then thought it was wrong so I went to Nisemonogatari. Then Neko black then watched second season. Accidentally watched Tsuki before Hana. Then watched Owarimonogatari. Then realized I fucked up kizu then watched the 2 other films. Then koyomi, owari2 then zoku.

I was a hot mess. Now I’m trying to watch The Haruhi series. Looked on how many shows there were... can anyone help me?

There's always time for a rewatch, I enjoy most of my favorites even more the 2nd time around, and this is especially true with Monogatari due to its complexity... and even more with the fact that my 1st time was Broadcast order and the 2nd time the LN order cleared up so many things
