| Kaiki turned into a freaking film-noir detective. His reaction when he learned about Koyomi's fetishes was priceless. |

Time for a re-watch! |

| It is stupid of me but only by watching this episode with the latest episode of Gingitsune did I realize that Kaiki and Gin (of Gingitsune) share the same seiyuu! Nadeko is absolutely of her age (naive and think in odd way) but because of her new status she is also scary. She even had the power to rebuild the whole shrine! And at least we now know Hitagi never even have the money to fly back. So much for the speculation that she is not so poor after all. |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| I really want to see what's inside Nadeko's closet now. |
| Don't open the damn closet ! http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/114305nsfw.jpg |

skyline159 said: At first when I heard that this arc will be told from Kaiki's point of view I thought this is such a waste for the final arc of this season, why not Senjougahara, this guy is boring. But then I watched episode 21 and 22 and he's now one of my favourite antagonists He's definitely not an antagonist in this arc, he's protagonist now :p |
| Now I'm getting interested on how Kaiki will deceive Nadeko. |
 |
| I think I like this more than Bakemonogatari....this whole season has been stellar. |
 |
| Kaiki's seiyuu is really good. Hitagi was about to to spend the night with Koyomi.. nice. |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
| HITAGI & KOYOMI FUCKING!!! Based Shaft. Kaiki = perfect. Nadeko = more than perfect. Only complaint is that we don't get to see the budding relationship between our two protagonists, but that's to be expected. So many gorgeous shots as always *--* |
| Hahaha. Kaiki sure is an interesting man. Can't wait to see how he will talk to Nadeko again. |

| Hmm...I still hate what they've done with Nadeko's character. My hate is so strong it actually affects my enjoyment of the show a little bit. Oh well...at least the other characters are still enjoyable. |
saxophone15 said: Can't say that I enjoy the series less because of it, but it does sadden me that things went this way for Nadeko. I really wish she could (and hope she still might) have a happy ending. Of course, there's no way she'd ever end up with Koyomi... but still I would hate for her to have a bad ending.Hmm...I still hate what they've done with Nadeko's character. My hate is so strong it actually affects my enjoyment of the show a little bit. I'm hoping that Kaiki can change things for the better, particularly for Nadeko. I don't see anything close to this happening, but in the last few seconds Kaiki almost seemed like a father figure to her. It's only wishful thinking though, since I can't see Kaiki as a parent. |
| Lol "Seriously, what is with this Hanekawa?" ... She's a girl who knows everything Lol Senjougahara & Koyomi are going to spend night together??? Oh Kaiki, you sweet-mouth It's so cool.. How could I get the uncredited one? |
"Signature removed"   |
| Kaiki have talent for drawing ^^. Even thought this guy is probably the world biggest jerk he is freaking good and bring amazing conversation. So he goes to see Nadeko whose back to her cute habit ( even thought she have gorgon hair she look great). The OST also greatly fir Kaiki's shady persona. This Arc is already epic. |
 |
| Because the focus is shifted to this character I do feel like the episodes are slower and more boring, but well it was nice to see Nadeko again :p |
 |
| Kaiki hearing about Koyomi-oniichan was funny. "Is he a criminal?" Lol Seriously, are they ever going to explain what happened to Araragi and why he needed Kanbaru? |
| Hmm, for a few frames there Kaiki actually looked sharp with those sunglasses rather than ridiculous when Hitagi first saw him with the Hawaiian shirt on. Furthermore, I'm actually surprised he threw money into the donation box... a 10k yen note too... maybe it's fake... Had a good laugh when even Kaiki questioned Koyomi's motives seeing a half-naked girl (of course we know what really happened in Bake) and wondered if he were some sort of sex offender. Lol at two other people having referred to Shinobu as Koyomi's loli-slave now. Now here we have Nadeko and Kaiki talking to each other. Skilled story weaving that results into character mixing and matching like this. Superb. Never a boring moment for me even when dialogue is basically all that happens in many episodes. Suruga ends up becoming a critical piece of the puzzle here for both Deishu and Koyomi... I just hope this season doesn't end without explaining why and how that came to be. |
| wow :O just wow. nadeko is fucking crazy o.o and awesome. |
| anime with cute girls is my thing. |
| I hate Nadeko's voice. |
 |
| I've never liked Nadeko whatsoever, she's never he'd any shred of appeal for me personally but man Kaiki is a masterpiece of a character. I could care less if he's evil or just flat out greedy for cash, he steals away scenes and is so interesting to wait and see what he does next. I sounds cruel but I don't hope Nadeko gets a happy ending, all of this I see as her fault really. She just dealt with her problems in a very poor manner, but that's my opinion. Anyway, it's not as though Nadeko ruins anything for me, she's not good enough to do that, I just find her to be an annoying character that doesn't contribute a whole lot, before and after her snake god transformation. Who knows, opinions can change very quickly however, especially with these last few episodes something is bound to happen. FirstFamiliar said: Seriously, are they ever going to explain what happened to Araragi and why he needed Kanbaru? I'd like to know that as well, unless I missed something I hope it gets elaborated on more these next few episodes. I haven't read any of the LN's so I haven't a clue about the source material. I don't think this would ever happen (again I haven't read any of the LN's yet so I wouldn't know) but if Oshino, Kaiki, Gaen and Kagenui had to team up--or even if Oshino/Kaiki did to help with a powerful oddity-- I would be glued to the screen. |
| Kaiki really grew on me these past few episodes. What a great anti-hero :) On the other hand, Nadeko seems like she's completely insane now and just as annoying as ever. I really do hope they kill her. She does not deserve to live in a series where my ghost loli had to pass on. |
Ramkec said: Kaiki with no fear going straight @ Nadeko. He's just too great, can't hate him at all, no matter what he does. +1 |

| Holy shit, Kaiki seiyu is a real boss. He really perfect his character, it's incredible. ''«I've never told a lie». I honestly said so'', woah, that was epic. ''You won't see him. Tonight, Araragi and me will, uhh, nevermind''. Does that mean what I think Sengouhara? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Damn, seeing Nadeko all happy was creepy and showed how much she was lonely. When he said that she care about such insignificant thing, it was sad because it was so true... Her parent seem so off. Welcoming a total stranger and talking about their daughter like they didn't knew a damn thing about her, like Kaiki said. I'm sure Hanekawa will be a joker card. She seem like she's the strategist, planning everything from distance. |

| What a superb episode. Having the thought process of Kaiki detailed while doing his inquiries (at Nadeko's house then with Nadeko) was really interressing. More than once you see him empathizing with Senjougahara and Nadeko to better understand them, which will allow him to deceive them. I also liked how they hinted he was in love with Kanbaru's dead aunt. Having a heart just confirms the grey feeling he somehow gave since Nise. |

EratiK said: I also liked how they hinted he was in love with Kanbaru's dead aunt. Having a heart just confirms the grey feeling he somehow gave since Nise. Aunt? I think it was hinted to be Kanbaru's mother if I'm not mistaken. |
 |
| You might want to spoiler that since I'm not sure if we're already clear on the Kanbaru household situation by this point (and if it was done in Nise I don't remember it). The hint was pretty vague. |
|
| It's not clear, it's mostly vague. The hint was on this arc. |

But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| Damn.. Kaiki is getting better playing the role of a Deuteragonist !!! Kaiki in disguise!! What Good parents nadeko have!!... Koyomi visits her every other day like the "Older brother" used to do... then ends half-dead way back home. Koyomi you're brave enough to do that kind of things.. I praise you for that. "Yo Nadeko , long time no see ... you've really taken the "god" role aren't you!?" me if i were on kaiki's place. well shit... that shrine got newly reconstructed that is good enough to the eyes. Nadeko .. you don't meet people personally when they do offer some money at the shrine ... (It doesn't really bothers because he is her first adherent and of course she is a "living god" also, I can say that She is happy with it .. She's smiles like nothing happen in the past...) She Totally said it without shame ... lol!! God-like answer!! Wtf Sengoku.. you're like a new person now!! you're not shy anymore , you're more open to you rown feelings or saying anything that appears on your mind ... but it's making me sick that you're a crazy psycho yandere emotionless killing machine now... A Love that Kills... yandere's love!! A naive Happy-go-lucky young goddess. immune to insults... still kawaii though!! Cat's cradle.. its been months since I last saw you on anime... Good Ending!!! Nice Episode!!! Great ED song also!!! end card was awesome!! |

| Nadeko doesn't take "cute" as compliments anymore. That is quite sad to have such a wonderful life be flipped upside down from the actions of various people whether intentional or not. Also, I fucking love the Ace Attorney reference in that end card. |
| Even promoted to God status, Nadeko still manages to stay Worst Girl. That's actually quite sad and pitiful... a bit like herself. Kaiki, master of the almighty art of lieception. Definitely the highlight of this arc, and I actually would kill to have to a speshul OP dedicated to him. Really tho, I greatly enjoy his cynical outlook on life and how easily he saw through Nadeko's absence of brain power. Seeing things through the perspective of an adult, as distorted they might be (considering how much of a mythomaniac Kaiki actually is), is pretty damn refreshing. |

| Kaiki is really interesting. Very good episode, 5/5 and I think it will be 9/10 for whole series. minouneetzoe said: Holy shit, Kaiki seiyu is a real boss.

| Kaiki doing his business. I totally would mind a whole cour dedicated to this guy |
 |
| Again I fell off the chair prey to sleep, not that it is bad episode, but too many dialogues somewhat abstruse fan made me sleepy. Narrative that sees Kaiki sole and undisputed star, much better Koyomi and its perversions. Drawings and animations as good quality. It is very strange that in the temple of Nadeko-sama there were believers, a goddess moe so, where are they? LOL |

| Observing Kaiki slowly work his way in really is fascinating. I used to dislike him, then I learned he was in the group with Oshino and the others in school, and came to not mind him as much knowing that he was a part of that group. And now, I don't nearly mind him as much. He has changed a bit since his more evil-doings, and seeing him work in his brilliant ways for an overall good cause is really neat. |
