Yotsugi Frank should be out now. The youthful origin story of everyone's favorite corpse doll.

Choose one
>>283067761Nisio PEAKsin still killing it even after ending the series for the 2nd or 3rd time.Gatari bros eating good.
>>283068281It is really hard. You know Shinobu is guaranteed to have no panties. But Yotsugi may also not have any, or very sexy ones. A very nice surprise. Then you also have Mayoi, who will willingly let you peel off her sexy print panties. Maybe Mayoi would be the best to go with, as I bet she has a fun little patch of thin hair.

The two next books are called Torimonogatari (Bird Story) and Ootorimonogatari (Phoenix Story)
>>283074599Now this, is epic. Fingers crossed for more incest too.

>>283069577Kizu is great.
>>283069151Beautiful eyebrows
>>283075404This is a very good image, where does it come from?
>>283075518It's from one of the Kizu slot machines. I don't remember which one.
>>283075451Stop posting that gif, I don't wanna be horny

>>283076268
>>283076217why are hachikuji and arararagi the same height
>>283077065Maybe Hachikuji is sitting on his outstretched leg
>>283077065She's kneeling while Araragi is sitting
>>283077276Monogatari is the most beautiful anime
>>283078072My fantasies of ai prompting a game would be trying to copy monogatari architecture
>>283078603That one should be somewhat simple even by hand. A lot of the cgi in Monogatari uses simple shapes and color. It is what gives it its distinct avant-garde look. Obviously, you'd have to figure the rest of the game out though.

>>283081430WE MUST BE BETTER LOLICONS
>>283081477Who Shinobu sucked before meeting me is none of my business
>>283081538What about seeded
>>283081430Yotsugi has something really appealing, i really like her, i think it's a combination of her eyes and the eyebrows, it's really cute. Also the few doujins i've read have been unintentionally really to my liking Read this the main reason besides how she is:https://exhentai.org/g/1602004/37d6d3b9e7/
>>283081697Shes the best girl in terms of content. She doesn't say much but what she says is gold
So we're just gonna stick to the usual bumping instead of discussing the spoilers that have been out for a few hours? Okay, then.
>>283081647Shinobu only leeches like the king she is.
>>283081743I'd love to hear what interesting things happen. No one's posted anything yet other than the Tsukihi news though.
>>283081430Can I redeem them for math or snake?
>>283081872We see a long hair cute JK Kagenui
I want to know if Yotsugi is naked
>>283081743Meme lost his meme
>>283068281Mayoi can be the first one to step on my cock.
>>283081743Yotsugi is designed to look like 12-year-old Gaen Tooe because Gaen Izuko is a siscon.
>>283082384H-hot...
>>283082384Then why doesn't Kaiki try to fuck her?
>>283082384Explains why she have the same thick eyebrows as Tooe and Kanbaru. Unlike the very thin ones that everyone else have.
>>283081872One of the big things I've seen in almost every review is that it's not really an "occult club" book like you'd expect. The Gaen sisters apparently take up a LOT of the page time.
>>283082384She's also made of Kagenui's little sister. The corpse they used was 100 years old so it was largely decayed, so they had to use a lot of Kagenui's sister's bodyparts to fill in the gaps.
>>283082612Sounds like it could be fun if there dialogue is nice. These are stories of youth after all, it makes sense to focus on what youth is present.
>>283082766No wonder she calls everyone for "Onee-chan" or "Onii-chan", she's made out of 80% dead sibling.
>>283081872It's revealed Tadatsuru Teori wasn't actually cursed like the others. He voluntarily opted to share Kagenui's curse, which is why they have the same curse.
>>283068068Uwoooh
>>283069381What's your idea for a new arc?
>>283071204brat fight
>>283082949Why the hell did he do that? Was he simping for her or something?
>>283078915Too preoccupied to teach Kanbaru lessons or prepare her for life that she forgot to be a loving mother maybe.
>>283083032From what I gathered from the summary, it's not spelled out too clearly, but the person writing the spoilers took it as a show of affection toward her.
>>283082384She looks too small to be 12, to be honest. Isn't she usually portrayed as being around 8nobu's size?
>>283083183She's the tallest of the loli trio. Not far from Nadeko.
>>283083183She's actually quite big. I actually thought she was 14. But maybe that was because it would create a perfect loli staircase (8nobu, 11yoi, 14tsugi).
>>283083060And then she took custody of his puppet daughter and they never spoke again. Poor guy.
>>283081743>>283082384>>283082766>>283082949moar spoilers pls. i'm here for kaiki, did he get to do anything fun?
>>283083060Where can I see this list of spoilers?
>>283083347I haven't seen any plot spoilers yet, but I someone posted this conversation>"Kagenui: So scary. Don’t get so mad at me. On the plane ride home, Kaiki-kun, I came up with two possible approaches in advance, you see.">Kaiki: "Are you telling me to choose one of them?">Kagenui: “It was my first time riding a plane, so my heart was pounding.”>Kaiki: “Are you telling me to choose one of them?”>Kagenui: “A hunk of metal flying through the sky, that’s about as supernatural as someone coming back from the dead, isn’t it?”>Kaiki: “Are you telling me to choose one of them?”>As if refusing to allow the conversation to go off track, Kaiki pressed on, and Kagenui-chan…
>>283083352>implying there's a list>>283083347I barely even seen Kaiki mentioned in any of the spoiler reviews I've seen posted. Lost of comments that all of the club members get good development, but few about what Kaiki specifically does in the book.I did see one post complaining his curse doesn't make any sense, though. (and that the explanation behind Gaen's contradicts Shinomonogatari 2)
Hear me out, Hachikuji in a transparent slicker, wearing nothing else other than very cute boots.
>>283084221Watch out, Hachikuji!
>>283084527It's just their usual banter. A little rape for some laughs.
>>283083347Everybody is being pretty vague about what happens. All I know is that Kaiki's story will shake you up, so be prepared for that.
>>283083899biblically accurate forbidden fruit
>>283075767>>283079312>>283080058Good Japanese sibling sex morning.
>>283067761Imagine having a sexdoll dress as Yotsugi
Yotsugi is my wife
>>283088774She loves you
>>283089356I love her too
>>283068068holy sexo
>>283074599we're so fucking back birdgods
>>283079369>girlthat's a boy
>>283082384I guess the bushy eyebrows fit
>>283089651I have always hated Izuko but she does have good taste in eyebrowsWhy doesn't she have good eyebrows?
>>283079429FASTER
>>283068281always
>>283089832Such a beautiful Hachikuji image
>>283089651She's got the green hair, too. Although it's hard to see in Zoku because it looks like a lighting thing and randomly disappears in some scenes.
>>283090531A completely nude character sheet is one of the most glorious things. I kind of wonder if Shaft internally has art like this for more long bath scenes that they just haven't released yet.
>>283090531hag ass
>>283090531She probably has a big bush.
>>283090531She's so hot Araragi is fucking gay
>>283089832objectively perfect tits.
>>283068068Glad I always had Yotsuru stocks unlike a lot of you fuckers out there.
>>283090702Too much woman for a young lad like him
Adult Hachikuji was so beautiful. He had a chance to live with her forever too and turned it down. dumbfuck
>>283089651>>283090531I wonder if Nisio told SHAFT about many of his future plot twist so that they can make little hints like that.
>>283090855He should've started a family with her and Shinobu in that alternate timeline.
>>283067761one of these days i am going to watch gatari but i'd be going in 100% for the girls.>>283068377panties > no panties
>>283090904Think about it, an eternity of fucking a cute goddess and a vampire girl on the side. What a moron he was
>>283090935No idea why but gatari does not feel like a 100+ episode anime at all.
>>283090935>i'd be going in 100% for the girlsThis is why most watch it and also why it is one of the most popular works in Japan. The girls are very good.
>>283090946Get to live with a well adjusted Sodachi too. Maybe the only major problem is rainy devil roaming around. Captcha: RRA2G
>>283091023>well adjusted SodachiI like the haircut but I do need a mentally unwell wife that I can fix
>>283090935Would highly recommend it. Some episodes are filler but its great watch. Doll episodes are the best(anytime she appears)
>>283090855In Ikusamonogatari, it turns out Mayoi figured out she's a god and can change her appearance, so she's an adult now. (Araragi says she was an adult at his wedding too, so she's been doing it for quite a while)But there haven't been any books set after Ikusa, so it's not clear if it's going to be a thing going forward or just a one-off gag.
>>283091278I think it is a gag. He mentioned that he realized it had significance due to mirroring Kabuki (which was a big theme in addition to the Bake mirroring).
>>283090531I wonder if there exist an AI tool tuned to add nipples and genitalia to censored anime characters then you could filter censored modern anime and upload episodes to nyaa
>>283091374Why only modern anime and not old ones too? I think older anime probably would work better for this anyway, as the featureless method of censorship seems to have fallen out of use.
What does Shinobu deserve?
>>283091150>Some episodes are fillerI'll bite. Give me the trash opinion Niichan.
>>283091541sex
>>283091541Donuts and creampies
>>283090531Smug bitch in a good way. Unlike her sister.
>>283089750This is the last one I have.
>>283092419Koyomi Blender
>>283074599Tori can also mean "the final performer" and Ootori can also mean "The final act". Would be funny if Nisio ended the whole Monogatari franchise with a story about Tsukihi.
>>283074599Finally.
shinobu>1000yo lolilegalcow>the body of a loli but she has been around for 50 yearskinda legaldoll>a dead body of a 100yo loli kinda like cow>but mixed with parts of a child>also made to look like a 12yo girlyep, not legal
>>283090883he probably watched shaft shenanigans and came up with shit
>>283093421Bird thighs!
>>283093460Hachikuji is 25The cake is a cow
>>283094028I LOVE casual panty shots. The ones where they are just there as you'd naturally see them from the angle.
>>283094028I don't feel anything towards her
>>283094945Those soles on my face, please.PLEASE!
>>283094945The single little bandaid keeping this image safe...
Footfags need to be exterminated
>>283095314
>>283095344i would lick and suck those toesnot a footfag she just has very desirable looking feet
>>283095314>>283095344>>283095405The sentence is death by feet
>>283095628These look cool
>>283095637Oh ye- I mean, oh no! How terrible! ;-)
>>283093515Nah. It's pretty obvious he's been cooking this story for a long-ass time, but just never got around to writing it. There's a bunch of setup as far back as Final Season. (although I don't think much of it found its way into the anime)
This OP have really grown on me. It really does a good job at turning their different personalities into a song. I like it more then Cursetard even:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sw6A7oa2cM
>>283096512Tsukihi's ass is so sexy and plump damn. It almost looks like she isn't wearing panties too, dirty bird.
>>283080058bottom left is perfect
>>283097068Second from up left for me
What if Family Season is also a joke off of the word familiar? They both have famiri in katakana.
>>283096848dumb birb in heat
>>283095314>complaining about footfags>in a monogatari thread
>>283096196I have searched for an hour for the Yotsugi kick gif but it has been scrubbed off the internet entirely. There are only fractions of the scene now.This is not only bullshit but disturbing because foot fetish aside it was a funny scene
>>283097213Fuck you I want tummy
>>283097167But then it doesn't make any sense for the next book to be about Tsukihi. She's the opposite of a familiar.
>>283067761Does she have genitalia?
>>283097429Just ask if you can fuck the doll. Nobody is going to think less of you.
>>283097473Do not make any AI slop of my wife
>>283097473AAA-AAAHHHHHHH-HHHHHHHHH-H-HHHHHHHHHH-HHHHHH
>>283097400Sexsexsex
>>283097473This is a leaked shot from the animated adaptation of Yotsugi Frank btw. The ass was built quite well.
>>283094895Anon is dead inside.
>>283097848I live for gahara doll and math
>>283097881I repeat.
>>283067761This isn't Yotsugi. The story apparently makes it clear the character on the cover is young Tooe, which is why she looks a bit off.
>>283097901Youre taste is so bad you might actually be a dangerous pedophile
>>283098069>Youre
>>283098192Touched a nerve?
>>283098069That describes all Monogatari fans
>>283098258Anon, you're silly.
>>283098336No it doesn't.
Interesting prologue.
>>283098453It doesn't describe you, Alalalagi-San, I'm sorry for forgetting.
>>283098406I want marry them all
>>283098511I used deepl so it was a bit weird. But from what I understand, this is Meme reflecting on similarities between him and Araragi? I remember predicting this was the case.
>>283098607>だから、もしもあの少年から詰め寄られたなら僕は言う――>あの日以来、一度も火をつけたことがないHe's basically just saying "If that boy were to ever ask me about it, I'd tell him 'I never again started a single fire after that day'".
>>283098069Don't you mean basedophile on a watchthischad list?
>>283098607Stop using ai retard
I haven't watched anything since Kaiki got killed (?). Is it still good?
>>283098848Yeah. Kaiki's fine, though. Literally the first chapter of the new book opens with Kaiki.
>>283098829Ah I'm sorry you feel that way. Would you like for me to explain it in literal terms?
Shinobu decapitating Araragi and his head growing back as a crying baby is probably my favorite moment in all of television and film.
>>283098874>anime deadpool fan
>>283098829How else am I supposed to translate it? Suddenly learn more Japanese?
>>283098896You don't get it. In Monogatari it was based and artistic. In Deadpool it was degenerate and cringe.t. Monogatari fan who was forced to watch Deadpool series
>>283098848You claim to be a fan of Kaiki yet you take him at his word?
>>283098997I didn't stop because I was offended, that was the last thing available when I stopped.
Are Kaikifans a fan of him because he's an unhinged scammer with low moral boundaries and it reflects their personality or because he had a love background with a JK
>>283098848Yes it is still very good. In fact, I'd say the modern stuff (Zoku and O & M) are better than a lot of stuff in Final Season.
>>283098532I'd really prefer you didn't confuse me for him, Hachikuji-chan.>>283099048Kaiki is very clearly not actually a bad guy.
>>283099048He's Literally Me
>>283099068Besides Tsuhiki I don't think anyother girl gets the same amount of ass screen time.
>>283099105Nadeko is an ass centric character. Monogatari in general is good for butt lovers.
>>283099289I honestly think this whole series was just finding guys with supreme tastes and satisfying them.
>>283099572She thinks she's making an album cover...
>>283099879id eat her donut if you know what I mean
>>283100093Looking at those cheeks are like looking at wrapped donuts. What is exposed also makes me very hungry and I want to lick it.
So why hasn't he gotten Teen Shinobu preggers yet?
>>283100197He should get tween Shinobu pregnant
wow
>>283100226She was so shocked araragi was that much of a pervert
>>283100474But she couldn't fully express it. Hot
>>283099048My fav part is the implied Tooe relationship. I like to think she was his Hanekawa.
>>283100847I have always tought Toe was Kaiki's Hitagi and it was cut short
>>283101012I see more similarities to Hanekawa, like how he said he thought she was the ideal woman but he had a girlfriend at the time. Then again, he uses that excuse a lot.
Hmmmm
>>283101104sex
>>283101104How are these hags so sexy?Is Tooe like the Rainy Devil in bed?
Speaking of Rainy Devil, what was the explanation for it randomly appearing again in Owari only to get eaten by Nobu? That scene was strange and sudden.
>>283101374I don't remember that
>>283100847>>283101012I'm only like halfway through the new book, but it already shines a lot of light on their relationship.
>>283101457That sounds nice. I don't want to be spoiled because I see the anime first and read the books later as bonus content but I'm glad Tooe is getting some love. I should avoid these threads...
>>283101246We know Kanbaru's dad is dead. So, we can reasonable assume he died from too much monkey mom sex.
>>283101449It was in one of the best arcs, Shinobu Mail
>>283101635That was just a revived oddity thing sent by Seshiro no?
>>283101669I kind of thought that, but was unsure. The oddity lore is interesting. It reminds me of the original thing about the shrine and the implication of an "oddity war" or whatever.
cest
>>283102473Was she trying to seduce her brother so he'd introduce her to Kanbaru?
>>283100226This is one of the sexiest scenes in all of Monogatari. Araragi is too based to be a male Japanese character.
>>283099048First part.Not many stories can pull up introducing a clearly defined antagonist for him to disappear for several arcs then re-appear again as the main protagonist for just one arc and utterly mogging the actual main character to oblivion and making said arc the best arc in the entire franchise in the process.Kaiki's powerlevel is so high he has be kept from appearing because it'd make you realize most of monogatari drama is childish issues and he'd fix all of these broken girls without problems as an adult with no time for their faggot bullshit.
>>283103264The character interactions in Monogatari are quite interesting.>Wants to see Highschooler she looks up to and finds out her brother knows >Tries to seduce him to extort a meeting out of him>He not only falls for it, but starts playing erotic games with her (possibly even has sex with her, who knows what happened off screen)>He then agrees to let her visit his friend>The one he knows full well is a huge lesbian pervert and will do all sorts of depraved things if left alone with a middle schooler
>>283103816Nobu Nobu Sex Sex
>>283103957If it makes you feel any better, the toothbrush thing only happened because Kanbaru went "hey araragi, when you think about it, isn't toothbrushing kind of super perverted? you stick the toothbrush in your mouth and stuff lololololol" the day before, which was such a profoundly stupid observation that it popped back into Araragi's head when he was thinking about how Kanbaru would corrupt his sisters if he allowed them to meet.
>>283104682Ah yes, he was preparing her. Araragi Koyomi is such a good man and great brother.
>>283101104So that's where the face is from, but do they ever tell us where Ononoki's sharp elf ears comes from?
>>283105279
>>283105321Shinobu really gets around, little rabbit.
Yotsugi Cheek
>>283067761I hope that the OMS anime does well enough for them to also adapt Family Season. I need to see these college students commit crimes.
>>283105911Them picking up Off and Monster Season pretty much sealed Monogatari as something they'd do forever. Even when Nisio dies, they'll likely find a way to go on. Shaft really loved Monogatari, and has poured so much into it. They full on opened up a sub-studio so they had enough workers to start making other anime again while continuing to do Monogatari.
>>283106186>the year is 2090>i'm on my last breath>one of the last things i see is the anouncement that SHAFT is adapting Kaikimonogatari as a part of the of the 89th installment of the Monogatari anime
>>283103816feeding this little goblin donuts in-between sweaty missionary handholding sex with lots of kissing
>>283105279So that's why Kaiki absolutely hated her going "peace peace" on him.
I'm very surprised to find out that Koyomimonogatari is the third best selling Monogatari novel. I thought that it was one of the more boring ones.
https://files.catbox.moe/kblg0j.png
>>283101972"oddity war" sounds like a natural struggle to become a dominant species rather than some anime war.I could see how a vampire visiting could overshadow any small premature oddity forming by overtaking a town's rumors or the resident's urban legends.
>>283106794Don't show this screenshot to Kaiki. He would never recover.
>>283108888checked
>>283108381I wish that was me

>>283109464I hate Izuko
>>283109558How can you feel that way about a woman that have nothing but love to give?
>>283109601She is evil.
>>283109633>started the project that created Ononoki>Saved Hachikuji from hell and made her a god>turned Araragi human again>helped get rid of Seishirou She have done nothing but help. Your hate is unfounded.
>>283093421>>283093614The shot with the crossed thighs made me remember seeing this movie about Genghis Khan's life a billion years ago where they said that a wife with strong thighs is a wife who is sure to please her husband in marriage. The double entendre was lost on me at the time though, I thought they were talking about how well she would be able to ride a horse considering the setting and the era.
>>283109492

>>283109386well yes unless you want to wait 6 months for a human to translate it
To this day, I REALLY fucking hate what the anime did to Suicidemaster's character. The anime tried to portray her as this really cool, imposing figure, while in the books she's an eccentric living in her own head that's impossible to take seriously. One of the first things she does in the novel version of Acerola Bon Appetite is go on this long self-congratulatory rant about how awesome "Kissshot Acerola Heart-Under-Blade" sounds and how awesome she is for coming up with it. And she never, ever shuts up about food.Pic related is a good example from Shinobu Mustard. The underlined lines were left out of the anime. It's also kind of hard to tell what point Suicidemaster was trying to make without the extra context.
>>283110034>Doll bullying you with her feet and calling you a pervert all while having a completely emotionless facial expressionWhy is this so damn hot bros?
>>283112962The human translation will very likely be shit too and a lot harder to understand. Especially since some of the dialogue in Monogatari is quite subtle yet important and a translator could easily tweak things to change it into conforming to what they want to be true.
>>283112623Listen to monkey music. Be happy.
>shino translated 4 years after release>ikusa translated 1 month after releasethe power of crab is evident
>>283113052It is more that a normalfag is the most likely to translate an entire novel for free. A normalfag is also the most likely to view Hitagi's character as a lot more significant than it is. To be fair, a story about to characters being married would be more significant in most series. It just isn't in Monogatari because Nisio thinks a normal monogamous romance would be too boring to make the thrust.
>>283109386ChatGPT translations are... usually passable, but you really have to know how to prompt it. Best method I've found is to make it translate 50 lines at a time and have it post the Japanese text of the last line. That stops it from hallucinating and making up text. And to make it keep a master glossary of style rules and important terms. Then have it do a second pass where it cleans up sentence structure or else you'll get a ton of long, awkward lines with a ton of commas.It won't be an AMAZING translation, but it'll at least be on par with the fan speed-translation of Ikusa.
>>283112984IF Nisio wanted to make the point I think he wants to make about people that choose to be eaten (be victims), then I'm not surprised it could go over people's heads.It reminds me of Jean-Paul Sartre's thoughts on masochism and sadism in the context of the burden of one's freedom.
>>283113763He seems to hate the people who use "victimhood" for gain in general. Makes one wonder if he ever had an issue with someone trying to paint him as a monster.
>>283113763Nisio hates victimhood (see also: Ill Boy, Ill Girl), but that's not really the point of that particular scene. It's that Harimaze has it in her head "I'm unique. I'm special. I got eaten by a vampire.", while Suicidemaster's like "oh, you mean like a banana? or an earthworm? I met this girl 600 years ago who asked to be eaten like you, too. Oh, and being a vampire kinda sucks, too." She's just completely deflating Hamizawa's view of the situation.Hamizawa's "only me" line is setting up a (novel-only) scene later where Kagenui is asking who the perpetrator was and Araragi spells out the central theme of the story. Almost every book in Monster Season follows the formula of forcing Araragi to confront something stupid he did in high school. But ultimately, because he'd already outgrown that stupid thing, he's able to solve the situation. Because Araragi outgrew his self-absorbed "dealing with people lowers my humanity" mindset, he was able to solve Shinobu Mustard. His attempts at being more social allowed him to befriend Meniko, who gave him the answer. Him being more empathic allowed him to better understand Gaen and her shortcomings, which gave him the hint about the telephone thing. Being willing to interact with the high school basketball team gave him the insight into Hamizawa's mindset. And understanding that he wasn't special allowed him to realize Hamizawa was going through the same thing and let him plead a case to spare her.Really, I have no idea how you're supposed to understand any of that from the anime. Shinobu Mustard was a REALLY shit adaption.
>>283114645The funny thing is Araragi only got over this for girls. He still doesn't really care about interacting with males. Who knows how many shotas he encounters with issues that he just ignores because no one is forcing him to help.

>>283115354I can imagine the taste
What's with all the hanekawa hate?Yes yes, I'm a newmonofag, laugh it up.I just got done watching kizu (worse than mono in almost every aspect if you ask me, but that's just me), and while I'm not exactly a fan of hanekawas, it doesn't seem like she did much wrong. A bit nosy, sure, but wasn't she ultimately trying to kill herself (or get herself killed) the whole time anyway?But from what I've seen in forums and comments etc, she seems to get a lot of hate, for what seems to me like no reason.If there was one character I really ended up disliking after the whole thing, it was ararargi. But I guess that's what was intended, so it's not as surprising to me as the former.Answers without spoilers would be great.
>>283115462I thought the kizu novel was a lot better than the movie. That said, kizu did make me see hanekawa in a new light.
>>283115462>all the hanekawa hateIt does not exist though? It's just good all waifu wars.
>>283115462You haven't even realized the beginning of you have only just watched Kizu. Hanekawa hate comes from reasons afterwards. Kizu is the crown jewel of the series and that includes making Hanekawa seem like a good character. Just wait and see.
>>283067761No one can agree on best grill be everyone can agree on worst
>>283115715Gaen, annoying hag that ruins Araragi's fun
>>283115795This is correct.
>>283115673Eh, well each to their own.Bake>>Tsuki=Nise=S2>Kizu=Neko Kuro=Hana>Owari=Zoku Owari=Koyomi=On&Off
>>283115715Can't we all agree Kaiki is the best girl?
>>283115795It's her or Hanekawa or that clone in the newest season that was on screen for 10 seconds
>>283115825Off and Monster season being so low is a very unpopular opinion.
>>283115977You only hate Meniko because she fucks.
>>283115825Neko shiro is still my favourite even though I don't like Hanecowa
>>283115980I even rewatched the whole thing in chronological order before On&Off so I think I'm being fair. Maybe I just like Koyomi's bantering too much.
>>283116060You just liked seeing Karen's buttocks
>>283116159Yes and Hanekawa's haircut
>>283115462It's just people playing favorites. She's not any more hate-able for stupid things than any other character really. And of course she is a lot of people's favorite as well, so take everything with a grain of salt.
>>283117197Sometimes I wonder whether I actually like Hanekawa, or if I just really like professional victims with short hair and huge boobs.
>>283117415The true sign is if you still like her after her arc. If you get as giddy by her appearances in Koi or Owari then I think it's safe to say you like her.
>>283117466I actually stopped watching the second season right after her arc ended for some reason. I really should continue one of these days. I do remember liking, sex appeal aside, how her arc was more about her becoming a more mature person by the end and accepting herself as she is rather than vampire boy swooping in and solving her problems for her. She was like a Nadeko who ultimately overcame herself, despite herself, unlike Nadeko.
Hanekawa content in monogatari is bad 70% of the time but shes a value add in the series to fill a role Also you can have her as an element in sex scenarios where shes included in crab and koyomis relationship which tends to work better than other girls.
>>283117643A lot of the girls go through similar processes. Second season will switch between Araragi shenanigans and girl focused arcs until its culmination in Koi. It has some of the best arcs imo.
>>283117730Monogatari is just Nisioisin's take on the Great Gatsby, but Gatsby ultimately overcomes his infatuation with Daisy Buchanan.
Yotsugi is a Monogatari that no one hates.
>>283119372I hate how she doesn't show up more often and how she isn't treated well
>>283120010It is sad in some ways but I think it is supposed to be a gag. Like Yotsugi is treated like a tool or servant or whatever and doesn't react to it because of expression issues.
>>283120010What do you mean "Doesn't show up more often"? She gets so much screentime she functionally replaces Shinobu as the main girl in Monster Season.
>>283115462so you only watched bake and kizu? yeah at that point I also liked hanekawa still
>>283067761>Yotsugi Frank should be out now.>
>>283068281>Mayoi's disgusted lookHow could I not choose her?
Why hasn't Vertical translated any further LNs?
>>283121557The BD changes were so nice on Nadeko Draw. She became so much skinnier and lewder in many scenes. In the micro bikini, you can even see her butt crack now. A great improvement.
>>283121750Is there a BD remux with subs?
I think I used the wrong parts...
>>283121557i love these swimsuits so goddamn muchsad to think they'll be forgotten but i'll be dead by then hopefully
>>283124330There are some even older anachronistic elements in anime. Hopefully school swimsuits can become truly timeless too. I'm not even sure if they are completely phased out of all Japanese schools, or if the more modest suits were just for certain schools. They definitely do need to become more common in anime and manga though. Such a top tier outfit.

>>283125564I can hear this image
>>283125564>dagnabbit mad
She always rushed to cover her butt when her brother is around
>>283127121She knows it's in danger
>>283106186I hope they don't get themselves into a creative rut, milling about, churning them out.Be careful Shafto. Trying to be cool is a sure way to be uncool and it's got to be pulled from the cool dimension which only cool people are connected to.
>>283127544Knowing Shaft, they probably have a team that operates an interdimensional portal. They occasionally send an employee through to get inspiration for Madoka and background visuals.
>>283112623I preferred when he wasn't trying to do regular music.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUIElhR0g_Uhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6rYVHzJgqII like them in duplicate canon style.
>>283127901Yes, The Shaft. I've heard of it.
sex with shinobu
I need the image of Araragi licking Nadeko's armpit for... science
>>283126122That's honestly not even a terrible localization of the joke. It does a really good job conveying how retarded Tsukihi's forced pun sounds.
>>283110034God I wish this were me.
>>283128703Hot image
>>283128708I'd have to get out of bed anon...
>>283129492I'm going to lick Nobu's barefoot soles...
I like to imagine supernatural lolis, where one of the key traits of their supernature is that they can walk around barefoot everywhere without their feet getting dirty of hurt. Their feet always stay soft, clean, and lickable. It is very important to discerning the normal from the paranormal.
>>283129096You can post it when you wake. I can wait
>>283130068PIT WATCH
>>283130183>when she sees your dick

There is NO reason for a snake to have cute feet
>>283131020She looks kind of like Nadeko almost...
>>283131607Imagine that sole on your dick...IMAGINE
>>283068281Left or Middle. But mostly Middle.
>>283109386AI is good enough especially Deepl. But I will mention they are not perfect because unironically it does not understand Gender that well and it can translate the names literally than in their Romanji terms.
what does it say about monogatari if watching it is more pleasurable if you havent masturbated in 3 days
>>283132495About monogatari or about yourself?
>>283131020why does kaiki look the same as always
>>283133312dayo~
