Is she at fault for letting her mom die?
>>133390465
No, but her mother is at fault for not raising properly her child.
>>133390465
That's a tough one. I mean she certainly feels guilty about it.
>>133390876
She feels guilty about everything though, even being born.
>She gives her food
>Her mother doesn't eat
Literally she did nothing wrong. Her mother's responsible for her own choices.
>>133390465
>Is she at fault for letting her mom die?
She was underage at the time. It is the fault of social services for not checking up on the mum after a known case of domestic abuse caused long term trauma. It is not a little girl's job to keep an adult alive all by herself.
>>133391021
She could have alerted the social services about the fact that her mom was acting like an hero
>>133391127
Not only was she underage but she was also suffering from mental trauma from her parents' abuse and split, and so shouldn't have been her mother's sole carer. The government really fucked up.
>>133391210
You can't expect a middle schooler to make decisions like that.
>>133390743
hate fuck doujins soon
>>133390465
She Guilty
>>133390465
HOW COULD SHE BECOME SO GOOD AT MATH??
I mean she was abused from the very early years right?
>>133391941
As long as Sodachi is dominating. When only the girl is hating it either just rape or tsundere sex.
>>133392066
She studied every time she ran away from the beatings, to not think about the beatings for running away.
>>133392066
Something to escape into that was more certain and trustworthy.
>>133392066
We know she was really good at math when she was 12/13. For all we know the domestic abuse started around that time.
>>133392251
Not when Araragi's parents had already got to the point of taking her away from her parents a year before.
It did get worse when she got rebellious with the idea that there are kids who aren't treated well by the parents.
>>133392369
are* treated well.
>>133392066
Her dad beat bought study books to beat her with.
What happens to her after her transfer?
>>133392744
Sodachi Fiasco happens.
if sodachi requested rararararararagi to kill himself as his atonement to her, would he do it?
>>133392847
He didn't comply to Nadeko's request so no.
>>133392744
She tries to make friends and fails completely. And then she falls into despair.
>>133392744
She tries to make a friend but fails. She graduates without any friend.
>>133392891
but sodachi has a legitimate reason to hate him, unlike snake
>>133392945
It's different with Oikura because Araragi wants to be hated by her.
>>133392911
>>133392944
Impressive hivemind with repeating digits

>>133393122
It's life anon. It just gets different.
>>133393122
her deadbeat dad appears at the end
>>133393122
This is better. She's out in the world and dealing with the troubles of life instead of escaping into her own head. This is what her healing looks like.
>>133393122
Life changes. Someday you'll understand.But someday never comes.
>>133393177
A true gentleman Nisio knows what is life and why it sucks
>>133392945
>implying
She hates him for petty reasons
>>133393364
What? No. Araragi wasn't even close to being at fault for her circumstances but for fuck's sake she reached out to him for help and he just forgets about her entirely.
>>133393399
>he just forgets about her entirely.
He "forgets" about her the same way she "didn't notice" her mum is dead. Both knew deep down what's up.
>>133393456
He was rude toward a living person though.
>>133393399
She didn't say anything explicit. You have this dumb ass rich ass kid that has zero real world experience, and the only fucking clues you have are a glorified sleepover and a damaged house.
She should have just said "Yo homes, my mom and dad are kicking my shit in on the daily. Your parents are cops, can you help me here?"
And then an alternate timeline would happen where Math and Tard are childhood friends, turn into lovers and become spouses with three little shits to teach math to.
>>133390465
The real question is why didn't you protect her smile?
>>133393662
I protected her smile by paying taxes which would be the source of her government aid.
>>133393662
An evil wizard robbed me of my psychic power to presciently know of and amend the suffering of 2-dimensional Japanese schoolgirls.
So, everyone agrees that Sodachi best monogatari?
>>133393571
That would mean she would just confirm to herself that she is a terrible daughter and the reason for the family being as it is and would have another level of abuse if it still failed.
If Araragi realized the more or less obvious she would get rid of her problems and have someone to blame for "betraying her" and "ruining her family". It was obvious not the best plan though, she wanted too much.
>>133393904
She manages to be on the same high tier as the main girls even being a side character.
>>133393760
You didn't pay enough and now she probably have to move into a project somewhere.
>>133393777
Surely you are not merely deluding yourself. Surely.
I want to fuck Oikura gently and cum inside her, tell her everything is going to be okay, cuddle with her, and then disappear the next morning.
Am I a bad person?
I don't know why but for some fucked up reason I find irrevocably damaged girls like Sodachi really arousing.
>>133394147
Yes. I already did it once and she called me a bad person.
>>133394147
No, you're smart for not getting involved with a literal psycho.
Welfare is not a career option.
Why didn't her mom just pull herself up by her bootstraps?
>>133393399
Remember how Snake lied to the audience throughout the entirety of Otori? Araragi just did the same thing.
>>133394306
With what boots? The only boot she got was from the house.just
>>133394253

No, that's stupid. Blaming a child for their parents emotional well-being is kinda low.

I want to blame her for the engorged state of my penis and force her to take responsibility? That's ok, right?
>>133395495

>>133395579
She still let her die and she has to live with it for the rest of her life.
>>133394201
Because you haven't actually met one in real life.
>>133395112
I'll have to put up with her than. At least she's not Hanekawa bad.
>>133395891
Now why would I want to interact with any 3D pigs? We are talking about damaged qt animu girls not 3D meatsluts.
>>133394147
You could be worse. I would like to do this but stick around while subtly using my knowledge of her fragile mental state to engage in elaborately manipulative mind games and bend her to my every whim. And also have lots more sex.
>>133396342
She will listen to you only when you could solve a math quiz she gives.
>>133395984
Anon, if you would be so kind as to imitate what's being done in this image, it would be greatly appreciated.
>>133396444
Good thing I got straight As in math.
Furencho Kissu
I will kill you.
Middle Schoolers are bit too young and have under developed brains.
>>133396868
She was well developed in other areas at least.Her math skills.
But really, I can't see how someone could blame her for that, especially when the mother spent her last days complaining about how her daughter ruined her life but her daughter still kept bringing her food and trying to take care of her as well as a kid could.
>>133396456
I just did it. What now senpai?
>>133396342
Would that be the best way to mentally abuse her?
Maybe I could get her addicted to heroin too, then dump her off in Atlantic City!
>>133398518
That's pleb tier. It's like the difference between a fine aged wine and a bottle of Night Train in a dirty paper bag.
Instead get her addicted to even the hint of your approval, so that you know if you really wanted to you could destroy her more completely than any amount of abuse with just one sentence. Where she'd beg to be abused and degraded to the most vile extent rather than even think about confronting the length to which her thought process has been twisted so that you completely own her, body and soul.
>>133392718Underrated post.
>>133391127
In Monogatari the child always seem to have some sort of fault placed on them, despite the ineptitude of the parenting.
Oshino makes the argument that it's Hanekawa's fault for being too gifted, and that was why she was neglected, and had to teach herself how to cook to get regular meals.
Crab's mom wasn't locked up for trying to prostitute a minor to a cult.
Child services is obviously a sham in this region, because there are a few parents who should have been locked up.
>>133390465
No, her Mother just lost the will to live.
>>133390465
No it was unavoidable. The situation was beyond her control.
>>133399879
Oshino was right. Hanekawa's perfectness made her a shit.
It's amazing Araragi has turned out as well as he did with how parents are in Monogatari.
Senjoumama is a shit
Tooe while not a shit, isn't a shining example of effective parenting
Hanekawas a shit.
Nadeko's parents give zero fucks.
Sodachi's mother gave up
The Gaen sisters parents cannot have been that good if they producedadmittedly best girls but stillpeople with personalities like Izuko and Tooe.
Shinobu's parents offed themselves for being shit tier.
If it wasn't for Mayoi's parents being genuinely loving parents even if they're divorced, it could be argued there isn't a single good set of parents in the series.
>>133390743
Both their parents are shitty.
>>133400186
>genuinely loving parents
The father purposefully kept her away from the mother hoping Snail would forget about her.
>>133400255
Really? Can't say I recall that. I'd need proof but my point still stands. Her parents actually love Mayoi even if they don't love each-other.
The same could be said of Kanbaru's parents but Tooe sorta spoils the dish by being an autist.
>>133400186
Nadeko's parent care, they just spoiled her.
Although they might have had a shitty idea of what a functional daughter is supposed to be like, and not a doll which they seem to have aimed for.
>>133400373
They gave zero fucks about Nadeko as a person. Like you mention, they just wanted a doll, a "cute doll".
>>133391542
Especially one who literally got her shit kicked in by her parents.
>>133400417
It's not that they gave zero fucks, they just didn't know what fucks to give.
They were much different than say cat's foster parents who actually gave no fucks.
Fuck this season is complete garbage.
>>133400538
Well now. The argument here is whether zero fucks is better or worse than incorrect fucks.
I personally think incorrect fucks is much worse. They're actively forcing Nadeko into a role they want.
At least with zero fuck Hanekawa could continue to be her white, white self.
>>133400611
At least it's not boring like Hana.
>>133400851
>implying Hana was boring
I bet you think Nadeko Medusa was outstanding.
>>133400649
But Hanekawa's white self wasn't herself.
>>133399309
I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw it.
>>133400919
It was the herself she forced upon herself. Not the herself someone else forced upon her.
She was still like that in Kizumonogatari before Araragi told her not to change and she was still like that as a child so we can safely assume she was like that beforehand.
They should have separated this story from the season like they did with hana and started with the first 6 episodes of shinobu mail instead.
That way we could've gotten mayoi hell which wouldn't put us to fucking sleep like this one.

>>133402903
Yea that's what i meant. The lolicon aspect hits hard out of nowhere in that arc. It also introduces snail's tongue bitting antic which was difficult for me to get through at first. Maybe I'm alone in that though.

It's been a while since I've sympathized with a character to this degree. After this arc I felt like shit.
Really good arc. Good job Nisio.
>>133405261
It's funny, because at first, I hated the bitch, I thought her hatred for Araragi was unwarranted, and the things she said kind of annoyed me. Her screaming "hate" over, and over again, at the top of her lungs, only made me hate her.
Like you said, as her character unravelled, and I began sympathizing with her, it hit me like a brick wall.
I feel like we haven't had an arc this good in a while, one of my favorites at least. I'm glad she got a somewhat happy ending.
>>133405517
I think SHAFT's approach to this season might just work. The first half has practically no kaii and focuses on a small cast of main characters and their human problems. The second half will be all-out kaii action with a pretty big cast of side characters dealing with kaii-related issues. It will have something for everyone.

It's irrelevant whether Sodachi is actually responsible for letting her mother die or not. What matters is that she feels responsible, which is why she asked Araragi and Hanekawa to investigate her mother's death. When Araragi reached the conclusion that her mother had died but didn't pin any blame on Sodachi, it alleviated some of the guilt Sodachi felt which is why she accepted Araragi's conclusion so readily.

Why not? Stop infantilizing kids. A middleschooler is not a helpless toddler.
She should be able to possess enough common sense to try to get help from someone once she realizes something is wrong with her mom. And it doesn't take a genius to figure out something is wrong with her mom after she locked herself in her room and stopped coming out.

Hello reddit.
>>133406092
She clearly had mental issues as a result of all the beatings and abuse.
Of course she was well aware that her mother was dying, but she was also in denial and nearly paralyzed by trauma. It's not like she was too stupid to realize what happened, or too lazy to do anything about it. She was too damaged to accept what was happening, and so she made up some lie to herself that her mom just left one day. And she held onto this lie for years.

I know Oikura is fucked up in the head, but the author has always made it clear with every single other character that if something bad happens to someone is because that someone holds some responsibility too.

>>133412892
It is a different, more colourful bird.
>>133413078

>>133412892
The birds are metaphors. The seagull is because she wants to fly away from this life (which happens when the mother "leaves" her). The owl above her in front of the mother's room is the one who keep watch of her and prevents her freedom. Zokuowari peacock is because of her colorful life in contrast to her gray one behind the mirror.
>>133413078
Sodachi is CUTE.
>>133408080
Very hard to shake the guilt if you feel responsible for somebody's death though. That's the whole reason she asked Araragi and Hanekawa to investigate the "disappearance" of her mother. She wanted to be absolved or condemned based on the conclusion they would reach, so she might have a chance of moving on.

True, my point for Hanekawa stays true though. His entire point about her parents is that she unknowingly made them feel bad for being scum, thus deserved their ire for actually being a brilliant daughter.
His argument was that some children are too charismatic for their parents and fuel an inferiority complex. Even he admitted it was just bias because he feared Hanekawa.
>>133414533
Jokes aside, he actually keeps Cat's hair in his room in some secret area he cut on a date with her, so maybe he did absorb some of it.

Does crab/bat end count as harem end?
>>133419819
Ougi creation is also centered around Hanekawa - look at their names:
Hanekawa = 羽川
Ougi = 扇
>>133419819
Tsubasa would have an indescribable reaction to that:
"You know, if you wanted me that badly, you could have just accepted my proposal."
And Meme makes the Excalibur face at Shuraragi.

That would be implying he doesn't double troll and it's cat/crab polygamy end. Because it could actually work and let's face it no one would be surprised if it did.
>>133421754
no one would complain either
>>133421754
At this point I can't imagine Araragi living without cat.
I want Ougi to put her sleeves close to my erect dick.
Then, I want her sleeves to slowly descend over my erect manhood so that I can feel her soft, pale hand stroke my dick as I ejaculate all over the insides of her sleeves.
I don't want to see her hands though.
Okay so,Ougi is actually Araragi's tulpa? Am I getting this right?
>>133421754
Crab won't complain I guess. She loves touching Cat.
>>133423304
Sort of, more subconscious though. She's an oddity, which is why everyone can see and talk to her.

I like you.
I want to watch this series, but I heard it has certain order to watch it in. If so, what's the order?
>>133424214
Start with Kizumonogatari, the beginning of the story.
>>133424214
Begin at the beginning, and go on till you come to the end: then stop.
>>133424069
Snail's first and cat's last, can't say I don't agree almost agree with that. The rest of it's kinda weird though.
Impressive autism to list the same character more than once too.
>>133390465
I can't wait until Mayoi comes back! I just finished the LN for Owari it's pretty decent.
>>133424214
Don't listen to the other guys, you can read Kizu, however Kizu will be made a movie next year. It's not watchable bro.
>>133424319
Gee, thanks.
Just preordered Vertical's English release of the Kizu novel. Seems weird they'd publish it first, instead of Bake, but I guess the Western crowd really like their chronological order.
>>133424530
>>133424556
Just watch it in production order. Watch everything in production order.
>>133424807
I hope it's in order to promote a possible western release of the movie.
Holy shit somebody translated the Valhalla Combi short story:https://yumehokori.wordpress.com/2015/10/13/monogatari-short-story-by-nisio-isin-hitagi-throwing-translation/

Well, the last line on the blurb is "A theatrical feature based on KIZUMONOGATARI is due to be released in Japan in January 2016."
>>133425307
C'mon, do it Shaft! I can't wait in subs for months and months like I did with the Psycho Pass movie.

Hitagi seemed to keep things under control by inviting Cat over for skinship. Basically she made sure it is only done with Hitagi there to supervise.
>>133419813

He HAS a Hanekawa shrine. This is canon.
>>133390465
why did it take so long for anons to mention the fact that she let her die?
>>133428014
It was being said from the day the episode aired, but it took until yesterday for other theories to be finally quashed in these threads.
Very good thread yesterday evening it must be said.
Shinobu is coming next episode right?
I can't wait to see her again.
>>133428468
>Shinobu is coming next episode right?
No.
>>133428468
I think you'll have to wait for next week. There will definitely be monkey though.
When was the last time Monogatari had some sort of sakuga? The Araragi/Yozuru fight? This upcoming arc is supposed to have some action.
>>133427692
Reminds me of the bake commentaries where Nadeko tells Hanekawa that Araragi keeps rewatching the episodes featuring Hanekawa and crying.
So what's in the letter?
What's with parents being shit in anime?
I understand them not being there for narrative purposes, but why do you find so many shitty parents in these sorts of Japanese mediums?
I wonder if having daddy/mummy issues is a common thing in Japan.
>>133428910
absent parents (specially the father) is a huge deal in japan.
>>133427692
>He HAS a Hanekawa shrine. This is canon.
What's the source on that?
>>133428887
Sodachi's sanity.
>>133428910
>What's with parents being shit in anime?
Japan.
>>133428745
The last instance of stylized sakuga I can think of is the finale of Neko Shiro. Shinobu Mail has a few instances with potential for it:Kanbaru vs. armor, group vs. nue-type kaii, Araragi "duel" vs. seishirou
>>133428910
It's for people who blames their misery on their parents, like Sodachi. But thankfully Nisio understands that it's the kids fault.
>>133429020
>Neko Shiro
I think you mean the Neko Kuro ending. SS didn't have any sakuga.
>>133429139
>But thankfully Nisio understands that it's the kids fault.
That's mean, anon.
>>133429145
Oops. Yeah, that's what I meant.
>>133429139
Yeah, Nisio understands that abused kids tend to believe they don't deserve happiness and, even though it's all their parents' faults, they need to take the first step in overcoming that.
>>133429139
Is Nisio a genius of modern literature?
>>133429304
I was joking there, although it'd be nice if the parents were actually held responsible there somehow. Well, her mother was in a certain way.
But as an honest answer, the bad parents in anime in general are probably to justify why the characters have bizarre traits and a way to introduce drama, since characters are usually students it reduces the possible experiences they could have had.
>>133391210
It's hard to "51-50" people when they are just starving themselves. They can deny they are trying to kill themselves. You could then get them feeding tubes when they are unconscious at the hospital. Dealt with this first hand and law enforcement couldn't do shit. This goes for my state at least.
>>133430015
Anon expecting cosmic justice or karma from life will just leave you disappointed.
If your happiness hinges on it you should really change how you view things.
What's important is what you can do to change your situation and improve it.
>>133430015
Yeah, there's no justice in Nisio's world, bad shit just happens sometimes and sometimes people get away with it.
There should be plenty of other ways to introduce drama, but it seems like families are intentionally the main thing for monogatari. Every family is dysfunctional in some way, including how Araragi's parents' over-enthusiasm for justice sets him up for extreme disillusionment and how Nadeko's parents passively allow her to be completely unable to connect to others.
>>133430179
Both are valid messages though, not to expect justice and the fact that there is justice you can rely sometimes. Sodachi story is kind of particular for the fact that there is no oddity and no one to save her, so I'm hopeful that she will actually rely on the justice that is her right as a japanese citizen to make a real stand against her father.
>>133425291
cute
>>133430412
Seeing as her father supposedly reappears at the end of Sodachi Fiasco, I'm curious about what happens there.
>>133430625
He's back for more pummeling
Now that we've reached 90º, 180º when?
>you will never marry Sodachi and abuse her just like her mother
>>133430914
fuck you.
>>133430412
but did she ever take a poopy in her pants?
>>133430914
Sodachi is for hugs and gentle love.
>>133430914
Don't you mean abuse her like her father abused her mother to repeat the cycle?

>>133434595Ur a faget
>>133431622

>>133430914
I'd rather have her abuse me.
Doujins fucking when.
>>133437330
I don't think angry femdom is too common, but it's a niche that would work for her.
Who will do the character commentaries for this arc? Could they include Sodachi, or is she too unhinged for this?
>>133439688
We'll probably get Oug blowing Hanekawa straight the fuck out of the river again.
Though speaking of commentaries. I really hope Gaen is one of the people for Shinobu Mail.
>>133439749
>We'll probably get Oug blowing Hanekawa straight the fuck out of the river again.
I don't know, I don't think they should try to replicate the standout commentaries. OOC Hanekawa from Bake 15 and Ougi vs. Hanekawa from Koi 1 are probably best only happening once.
>I really hope Gaen is one of the people for Shinobu Mail.
I feel like she'll definitely be in there. Imagine a Gaen x Kanbaru commentary.
>>133439835
>Imagine a Gaen x Kanbaru commentary.
You sir, are a brother of mine.
As to the rest. I don't think they'll try to replicate it. I just think with how relevant Ougi and Hanekawa were to the arc, they'd have the highest chances of getting picked.
They also have a proven track record of good commentaries.
>>133439927
>They also have a proven track record of good commentaries.
That's true. Lots of other variations are possible too, for example: a friendly conversation over lots of passive-aggressiveness, or maybe a smugness contest depending on who's 'winning' on-screen.
>>133390465
>>133408651
Her bust is pretty inconsistent, I wonder which version is going to be more prevalent in the fan art though.
>>133440023
I would honestly put my money on Hanekawa winning the next time around.
She doesn't seem to be the type to lose twice.
Also man, that Kanbaru/Gaen commentary idea is the best. It would be the one commentary we need to see how Gaen would talk to Kanbaru on a personal level.
Is she a good aunt? Does she actually care about Kanbaru? How many dirty puns can they make? Would they discuss Tooe?
So much to talk about. I'd personally enjoy just 24 straight minutes of dirty puns with Kanbaru learning some new ones from Gaen.
>>133440052
Hopfully close to be flat.
>>133440084
>22 minutes of Gaen and Kanbaru exchanging dirty puns
yes please.
>>133428910
What they said + it's an easy way to explain your character going on crazy adventures without no one checking on him. Shoujo has a lot of normal families and when they are not it's often a plot point.
>>133440230
This. She's supposed to be malnourished and weak, as evidenced by getting knocked out by what Araragi describes as a weak punch and her family history.
So what are the chances of us getting a Shinobu op?
>>133440496
Probably zero. Here's hoping for a Gaen OP instead of an instrumental.
>>133440559
Still the contract nonsense I assume?
>>133440561
I'd like another duet.
>>133440630
I'm not even sure any more. I'm almost certain I heard Maaya scatting during the latest Kizu preview, so it might actually be some personal creed of hers to not do character songs.
>>133440630
>yfw the OP is a Seishirou x Araragi duet
nyaa
>>133440084
>I would honestly put my money on Hanekawa winning the next time around.
But Hanekawa didn't lose to Ougi in the anime. Now personally I don't think she really won either, but the anime itself seems to think she did.
>>133443826
They are talking about the character commentaries.
>>133443897
Oh right. My bad.
>>133390876
> That's a tough one. I mean she certainly feels guilty about it.
Anybody got that webm of Hanekawa being dragged along behind Senjougahara when she's confronting Sodachi? I could of sworn I saved it but now I can't find it. The look on Hanekawa's face is priceless.
Can someone repost that spoiler about the stories in Suruga Bonehad, Sodachi Fiasco and Tsukihi Undo?
>>133444302
Sodachi Fiasco
Over a month after Owari 1, Oikura is living with a foster couple and starts at a new school
She wants to make friends and she manages to fail
Most of the enjoyment is Oikura's almost constant denigration of herself and her inability to be normal
But she does fail in style, forcing the resolution of some social bullshit in the class
I don't think there's any hint of anything supernatural
Ends with her getting a phone call to say someone's turned up to see her
She expects a boy about her age, short and good at math
But it's her drunkard father
>>133444557
I'm too sleepy.
http://desustorage.org/a/thread/132381884/#132405612
>>133444564
Suruga Bonehead
It's the start of the summer vacation of Kanbaru's 3rd year
She has to clean her own room after pissing off Araragi by acting entitled to having him do it
She finds the left devil arm despite the fact it should have been eaten by Shinobu
When she picks it up, she's surprised to hear Ougi-kun behind her and flings the arm
Ougi-kun, who is not in uniform, but wearing black, has apparently come to help her clean
He finds the devil arm stuck in a fusuma (sliding panel) and its clutching a letter from inside the fusuma
The letter has a creepy poem which they decide is a riddle from Tooe related to the devil parts and they try to solve it
It's pretty strongly implied Ougi's male form is Kanbaru's version
He even says "I don't know anything. You're the one that knows, Suruga-senpai" a couple of times
He seems to represent guilt driving her to feel a responsibility regarding the devil parts
Ougi leaves the room when Araragi calls about trouble Hanekawa is in
While he's out, Numachi comes in, but Kanbaru recognizes it's actually her mother (or rather its presumably the illusion of her from Koyomi Reverse)
Tooe refers to the letter as a love letter intended for Suruga's father
She warns about how the devil parts can multiply by feeding
But she's firm in saying that Suruga doesn't need to gather the parts and no one expects her to—if she does so it ought to be of her own will
Tooe goes before Ougi-kun comes back (she says she might be annihilated, in the matter-antimatter sense) but not before dropping a hint for the riddle
Kanbaru has understood the solution to the riddle and explains to Ougi-kun
They form a map by putting together the wood "bones" of the fusuma
She tells Ougi-kun she's going to follow the map next day
It ends with her saying they found the devil part the riddle led to, but she's going to work toward collecting more

He also treated Nadeko like she could do no wrong and indulged her using him as a crutch to avoid dealing with her real problems. So Otori was about Ougi-chan punishing him for those by tempting Nadeko to use the talisman.

[<Monogatari> Series Final Season]
[Owarimonogatari]
[Shinobu Mail part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6]
Before we start the final act, before we come to the ultimate end, there is still one more story that must be exposed. Dear readers, I'm sure you've not forgotten.
[The *story* of the beginning of everything]
His life--which has continued continuing--will finally end.
[The beginning of the end.]
Araragi-senpai, stay down!
Kanbaru!
That armored samurai is missing something vital.
Something the armor lacks. That is--
How arrogant of you, Onii-chan. To think that you'd try to break your promise with Gaen-san.
Kanbaru Suruga is my sister's daughter. It would be a waste to let her talents go unused.
Arargi-senpai... run...
Please tell it, the story about that time that you've kept so stubburnly hidden up to now.
There's only one person I want to die with. A certain blonde-haired oddity.
Wait, master. Use this.

>>133451046
>Those boots

>>133450993
Why (only) Karen's?
>>133451111

>>133390465
So okay, I can concede the body rotting away in two years, but what about the bones? What about the smell? What about flies? Why wasn't she visited by social services if she was on welfare? How come you don't realize your mother is dead when you've apparently threw her skull away with the trash? What is this bullshit? Is the message here that she needed Araragi to tell her that obvious fact?
Also, what was the point of this arc anyway? You add a character, give her a stellar seyuu, which pulls off an amazing monologue, give her a great if a bit routine design, and then have her disappear in a completely anti-climactic way while also not contributing in any way to the development of any of the existing characters. Did they animate it just because it was in the LN? And why was it in the LN?
Apparently the series is still too deep for me, huh.
>>133451357
>while also not contributing in any way to the development of any of the existing characters.
kek
>>133451357
>way while also not contributing in any way to the development of any of the existing characters
How could you say this? Araragi, the MC, got a lot of development.
>>133451357
>while also not contributing in any way to the development of any of the existing characters.It doesn't really make that much sense when you don't understand Ougi's intentions
>>133451460
Did he? He came out exactly the same as he came in. Are you referring to the fact that now we finally know why he thought that friends made you less of a person, gee, that's great, but did this little bit of information warrant retconning a cop-out character into his past and dragging her story all the way into his present only to suddenly drop it? The current Araragi didn't develop at all, he just came in and did his thing.
>>133451563
I must admit, I don't understand Ougi at all. If you promise me it'll make sense later or if would have made sense if I'd read the LNs, I'd be satisfied.
>>133451667
That's not what I'm referring too. He literally, for once, made a mature choice regarding Sodachi in the end. This is not something he's done with the other girls.
>>133451667
It would make a bit more sense, but consider Ougi Formula and Sodachi Riddle transitional parts of the big picture of Owari. I kinda understand why you are not satisfied with the conclusion of Sodachi Riddle, even the last segment is kinda annoying with the ambiguous conclusion, but I really enjoyed reading it, and the adaptation was simply more emotional to me, even if the conclusion feel a bit unsettling too.
>>133451090
I'll admit that Crab is the one that rocks the school uniform the most. Bake Tsukihi is a close second

>>133390465
did araragi rape her when he went alone to her apartment?
>>133451357
>And why was it in the LN?
Ougi Formula had all classmate as named characters in the LN, and Sodachi Oikura was one of them. But Nisio liked her character and eventually ended up writing an entire book about her.
>and then have her disappear in a completely anti-climactic way
The point was that she has to find happiness for herself, and there is really nothing Araragi can do to save her. Which is why her following arcs do not involve Araragi anymore.
And the mystery was mostly about getting Hanekawa more wary of Ougi for going directly for the "worst theory". The mother completely sealed the room, so it's possible that there were no insects, but the smell would still leak very strongly (but maybe not to the streets), and child Sodachi simply blocked herself from thinking about all the hints, including the sickening smell while probably actively avoiding the consequences when possible as if she knew.
>>133445432
Is that confimed?
>>133457169
It's not, but it was implied that Oikura took the entrance exam for the same math dept Araragi was trying for. It's probably safe to think they both passed.

If Hana had more previous cast members and less numachi it would have been great.

At a glance it looked like she just took a diareah dump.
Gross.
>>133409102
I have no sympathy for plebs. They can go fuck themselves.
We were all "first time watchers" once. I watched Bake as it aired, I never had any trouble with any of those things.
>>133406487
I want to fuck her. She's literally perfect.
>>133460129
She's manic-depressive abuse victim who feels nothing but unhappiness and contempt for everyone including, nay, especially herself.
How is that perfect unless you have some kind of white knight complex?
>>133460240

She is also very cute.

She did when she bet her future on shota Araragi.
>>133457871
>Will we ever get to see Karen and Kanbaru shenanigans?
Kanbaru got a new story in the latest book, so that is actually possible. She even got a mentor...The ghost of her dead mum.
I wonder what Kaiki feels about it if he finds out?
>>133390465
I was too focused on the plot to notice how lewd of a shot this is.

Does Araragi notice that Ougi is an oddity? It sure seems like it since he has some restraint accepting her help in Tsuki.
>>133461776
who is this artist?
>>133462002He thinks she's the Darkness, which isn't an oddity.
>>133462025
I don't know, I just reposted something from an old thread.

>>133461776
>https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CTDPa0jUwAAl-6G.jpg
Holy shit
>>133462387She's not exactly Tooe's ghost. More like an illusion, created in Zoku. Kaiki probably doesn't know about her, but she does ask Suruga to pass on a message if Suruga ever meets him again. Roughly: "Quit drifting chasing my back. Don't you worry, I'm in the other world loved-up with my hubby."

I don't think so, or at least not by much. At least she was the perfect complement to Kanbaru's indecisiveness in Hana by being so self-assured and talking like she was hot shit. She really sounds enlightened in the first few episodes and it's not surprising that Kanbaru takes her seriously, but then you realize that she's already dead and that her philosophy obviously didn't work, even for herself.
Also, she's super cute for the 30 seconds after she loses the basketball game and before she disappears.

>>133464583
>Kanbaru's face
What is that expression trying to convey?
>>133464608
The dread of potentially getting hair stuck in your teeth.
>>133464718
She ain't gonna get any hair stuck in her teeth if they engage in some navel warfare, as Kanbaru seems to be intending to do.
>>133464608
Envy at all that soft downy fur.
I don't even watch this show, but doujins of the OP girl when?
>>133464793
I don't think monkey hair is particularly "downy". It's not all that different to human hair, albeit a bit more coarse and thick.
>>133406047
>What's Japan's welfare system actually like in cases like these?
From the anime, it seems pretty damn good considering she can live in an apartment all by herself and not in some shelter or something.
>>133464865
No anon, it's as soft and fluffy as mashed potatoes.
>>133464845

An anon was saying that children in her situation get as much as $1100 a month. Pretty reasonable if she lives in a town with inexpensive housing.
>>133465010
>An anon was saying that children in her situation get as much as $1100 a month
I could live off that easily. I spend less than $200 a week living on my own.
>>133464962
even if it did there will still be new doujins
>>133462707Just like the Monogatari Afterlife is not exactly an afterlife, it doesn't matter that the ghost isn't a ghost. It is close enough and gets the job done. Kaiki would approve, as the fake is better than the real thing after all.
>>133457484
I want to put my dick inside her butt
>>133464962
But she literally can't get good romantic vanilla doujins. She hates Koyomi, which only leaves faceless old men which she would hate as well.
>>133390465
Is she what Kagami looks like in non-chibi form?
She even has almost the same hair color.
>>133466665
you almost get satan numbers right there anon.
>>133465010
>1100 a month in a stylish monogatari flat
Its not the Araragi Manor, but I would haply live like that
>>133467193
Judging how spacious everything is in monogatari's Araragi-vision Sodachi's apartment is probably the size of a large closet in reality.
>>133467260
Even Hanekawa's closet looked sort of big in neko kuro
>>133464948
I wish the current art direction could go back to being as good as Bake's
So what's the leading thoughts here?
>>133467829
No chance, it's a different director. However, Kizu should be much improved.
>>133467919ur a faget
>>133467829
I'm watching the other series airing right now and even if it's not bake it's painfully obvious how much better it is then most of the crap out there.
>>133467919
The fact that so many books still name Euler's Identity as "the greatest or most significant or most beautiful" mathematical equation ever only tells you how far mathematics still is from becoming a serious art. Chemists have long recognized that the greatest formulas of all times are Dalton's Law and Schrödinger's Equation, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Physicists rank the highly controversial Annus Mirabilis papers over publications which were highly popular in courts around Europe. Mathematicians are still blinded by an abstract ideal of beauty. Euler's Identity looks better than anything else (not true, by the way), therefore it must be the greatest. Chemists grow up studying to a lot of knowledge and theories of the past, Physicists grow up learning Newtonian Mechanics. Mathematicians are often totally ignorant of the theories of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that Euler's Equation is anything worthy of being saved.

The dramatic angles and dutch angles felt overused in this arc. *PAUSE* *ANGLE* *PAUSE* *ANGLE* Would have been better if there was more clever visual puns and background events like the traffic jam pile up when Araragi was choosing who to go with.
>>133468204
That's my biggest complaint about Itamura's directing in general. He basically uses these close-up angles and pauses as filler when he doesn't know what else to show, and even when they don't seem appropriate. The lighting, color, and set pieces have all been really good this season, though.
Is it mentioned if Karen is going to Araragi's high school in Hana?
>>133403060
I didn't even notice Snail as a lolicon before Nise. Honest. When she was first introduced, she just came off as a cute little girl who was REALLY fucking rude and deserved to get smacked in the head. Twice.

That's sad.But predictable.
