Plastic Memories
A good number of emotional gems stand out among cookie-cutter anime formula. Overall, it felt like the story, setting, and characters didn't match up right.
Fate/Extra – Last Encore
Monogatari-style plot, Fate functionality, and Final Fantasy-type Final Boss. Kind of a chore to watch.
Nisemonogatari
Too much inexcusable uncomfortable fan-service (read borderline illegal) to make the neat dialogue worth it. It is important to the overarching Monogatari story, so if you're embarking on it, muscle through.
Fate/Apocrypha
Better, richer, dialogue than in UBW, much more of a Fantasy feel than previous Fate installments, but a solid piece with some outstanding artistic, bone-chilling, and emotional moments.
Bakemonogatari
A delightfully artsy and philosophical adventure, truly unique.

A great spin-off from SAOII, with a steady quality of episodes throughout.
