| WARNING: This thread contains spoilers for the new novel in the Monogatari series, read at your own discretion. The new volume and the first of the new Monogatari series season titled "Family Season" is here. Isin seems in a shape as good as he has ever been and mono's charm has no signs of wearing off, this volume follows Araragi and Hitagi's honeymoon trip with Shinobu and Kanbaru accompanying them. ---------------------------------------------------------- Weirdly enough, this volume emphasizes a lot on name changes throughout and it seems that Araragi has mixed feelings on the matter. Anyways, he is now a FBI apprentice and a member of the Japanese Police Force while Hitagi works for an overseas trading firm and it seems that those two spent quite some time apart due to their work even after their marriage which is so like them. Kanbaru is also in her fifth year of medical schools and she is preparing to be a sports doctor. We also get to see some more familiar characters like Hachikuji and Oikura which is always nice to keep up with and it seems that Araragi plans to adopt Oshino as his and Hitagi's child. We get to see them on a 2 days and 3 nights trip and trouble is still there for Araragi and Shinobu and Hitagi meet for the same time under the same roof. The developments in this volumes were outstanding and we get to see how much each character has matured throughout the years. As a fan, there was nothing better than seeing some great moments for our beloved characters especially Shinobu and Hitagi and it makes me interested in how they will fare as a family in the future. Overall, this is a very solid novel just because it features 3 of my favourites in the spotlight and there is so much development in their chemistry with one another(especially Hitagi and Shinobu), I give this a solid 5/5. All I can say, Isin you genius, you did it again!!! Looking forward to the next novel, till then see you.... |

So what did they mean by saying that gahara has a plan for araragi and shinobu in the description?
Does she want to break them apart ?
Does she want to break them apart ?
| @Minonine I don't remember that but no, she does not |

| Interesting enough. The epilogue has really piqued my interest for the upcoming arc. I guess I'll have to wait indefinitely again for tsugimonogatari translation now |
