Now, I know she classifies herself as a tsundere, but I just don't see her as one.
What do you think?

By the general definition, I would have to go with no. The reason I say so is because she seems to have quite the resolve when talking about her relationship with Araragi. Though she does have some qualities of a tsunderekko(generally cold, occasional endearing statement), she doesn't have that trademark conflicted attitude about her relationship with the loved one.

No. She's not conflicted at all with her feelings; she knows exactly what she feels, and what her relationship is. Her personality is like that of a tsundere, though.

Of the senses closely curled
Like a serpent round his heart
Shakes herself and stands apart."

She's a mixture of Kuudere, Yandere, and Tsundere.
She hits on a weird borderline between Yandere and Tsundere even though the two are near opposites on some scales.
And it works because it has Kuudere as it's mediator.

Which ought to make me like her, considering she's basically all favorite anime characters traits I can think of I like if I described them.
She's Kuudere. Which is my favorite overall type. She's Yandere, my close second favorite type. And she's got the assertiveness of a Tsundere minus the relationship shyness of one(avoiding the people they like, avoiding showing affection to people they like), she's assertive romantically as well, instead of resistive.

And yet I like Kanbaru Suruga better, mysterious.
I suppose it means the mixture obviously matters.
A mixture of at least Kuudere and Yandere would have the potential to be a perfect blend of everything I like in personality. But there are some difficult factors to sort out in the mix for it to blend perfectly into what I find true awesome.

If I ever write a manga, like a webcomic or something, I'll definitly make my perfect Kuudere and Yandere mix person.

Wiki lists her name as "Senjōgahara" plus translating her name, 戦場ヶ原, says that it's Senjogahara not Senjougahara so I'm not really sure why subers put it that way or which is correct, though I generally trust Wikipedia on these matters.
Also her fan club says Senjogahara.....

The first one is wrong, the other two are fine. Just because the official site has it doesn't make it correct, the Japanese routinely fail at the latin/roman alphabet and romanization, just like we do at the Japanese alphabet.

Aye... Someone who calls herself a tsundere is definitely not one. She's more of a tyrant, perhaps a little sadist as well. Who else could go "Kukuku, panties FLASH! ENJOY!~~" (albeit with less enthusiasm.)

Senjougahara is not your daily type normal Tsundere. She is way way beyond that level

Normal Tsundere - Narusegawa Naru

Super Tsundere - Katsura Hinagiku

Super Tsundere lvl2 - Shana

Super Tsundere lvl3 - Senjougahara Hitagi

Everyone would agree

I was expecting some kind of over 9000 joke.
I'm glad it didn't turn out like that.

Anyway, i belive that so far she's been pretty much a original character, thats why its hard to categorize her on the steriotypical traits out there.

Sure, you can say she has lots of tsundere traits, but still it wouldn't be much to prove that she actually is one.

Actually, the whole tsundere thinggy is a bit critical.

As some of you might know, there are 2 types of tsunderes.
Classic and the Modern one.

Classic (defined before the anime "mainstream" assimilated it).

Starts tsuntsun (cranky, violent and possibly violent) towards the protagonist (and possibly everyone else), due to some reason or another, and over the course of the story falls in love with him/turns deredere (lovestruck) .

While tsuntsun and deredere might conflict, this phase will be over after a short while and progress into straight deredere.

Compare with Coodere. Do not confuse with Modern Tsundere.


Modern
She has one side that is utterly deredere (lovestruck) towards the protagonist (and possibly everyone else).

She has another one that is extremely hostile towards the protagonist (and/or everyone else) and which often will use extreme violence towards him.

She's switch between those two frequently. Expect 2-3 switches within one minute at worst.

Contrast with Classic Tsundere, Coodere and Yandere.


Senjougahara has traits from both, and tends more to the Classical Tsunder after a couple of episodes.

Half-tsundere, thats what makes her so attractive =0 Most tsunderes hit and yell at the main charachter and has a cold personality for example Kannagi ayano from kaze no stigma. I love how Hitagi is Cold yet bold about her relationship to araragi

Darn, I accidentally voted Yes, when I meant No.
She is definately no Tsundere. No compensative behavior as a response to things that might "open her up", no typical Tsun, only Deredere once in episode 2. So basically she is fully aware of her feelings and openly shows it most of the time.
Araragi described her perfectly with "Tundra" (basically meaning cold, if you didn't know) for acting cold so much.

Still, Hitagi is <3

Not one bit.


Why are we trying so hard to classify characthers into such useless "stereotypes"? As far as I know, characthers are better off being different that solidly falling into one of those "stereotypes".



Senjougahara -- who the hell cares if she's a tsundere or kuudere or yandere; she's awesome and that's it.

Honestly, I heard people told that Hitagi is a tsundere and many people like her a lot, so I never plan to watch Bakemonogatari. (because I hate tsunderes). But this show is quite popular and I decided to watch it. And I'm glad I did.

And I'm so happy...
I found out that..
She is not a tsundere, if she is, I will definitely hate her, but I'm not. She is a sadist, and loyal, blunt, maybe a yandere because she tell Araragi, if he die she will kill the one who killed him. That sounds pretty yandereish to me. So, if I will classify her, I think she is a yandere. And a sadist.

She act tsundereish once when Araragi ask her to help him looking for Shinobu, She told that she won't go anywhere. And before hung up, she told "Tsundere service" and the next word she said definitely the famous tsundere line...."It's not that I worry about you, but bla bla bla" This is clear that she did it on purpose. She isn't a tsundere. Her real self is like a yandere and sadist just like I said before.

Tsunderes are sucks.

I agree with this completely. I definitely thought of her as a sadist with yandere characteristics. Don't think she's a tsundere at all. What the heck was Oshino smoking? XD
