Damn that was intense. This show never ceases to disappoint me here yet and I'm starting to like this Kaiki guy as well. But damn, the trouble just continues..

Kaiki is an interesting guy. Nadeko is sick yet cute and funny. I enjoyed their interaction. This arc unexpectedly turned out one of my fav arc.

I guess that Shaft has put all their effort towards this arc.
Also, Kaiki is the best girl ever.

Bahahaha and i thought Kaiki looked ridiculous with those shades and Hawaiian shirt in the last episode. His hair was just too dorky :P

Oh that Sengoku... saying she loves Koyomi and was going to kill him with that big smile on her face. Hmm and even Kaiki now knows of Koyomi's... fetishes.

Sad that it's gonna end in a couple of weeks. At least we'll have Hanamonogatari sometime in 2014 and hopefully the last season in 2015.

Idk why but I couldn't stop laughing at how Kaiki looked. That hair, that suit. It just didn't look right haha.

Really liked seeing the conversation between Kaiki and Nadeko. Nadeko is freaking crazy lol

I'm loving this arc so far. Can't wait to see what happens.

lol at araragi in the background. also nice to see oshino back again ^_^

to the episode:
i cracked at few of kaikis comments of araragis preferrences.

Nadeko: Services? did you mean sexual favours by services?
Kaiki: ...
K.: I ignored that.
N.: Koyomi-oniichan was really happy when i went topless and wore just bloomers.
K.: What in the hell is the boy doing? [aint he got a girlfriend?] Is he a criminal?

It's finally here!

Kaiki is such an awesome character.His monologues are so amusing to read/listen.
Nadeko is in my opinion beyond saving.She should just stay the God forever or whatever, i dont even care about her anymore.

I'm also starting to like Kaiki more as a character, though he said in the beginning of the arc that his storytelling may be lies.

Kaiki probably had a past love who got killed in an accident, which may have transformed his psyche ice cold and despairful; leading to the life of a con man. My theory anyways.

Really good episode. Nadeko has completely lost her mind it seems and insults to her appearance make her react positively. Kaiki is an interesting fellow, in a sort of "I wonder what he's up to" kind of way.

That conversation with Sengoku was a bit unsettling. No wait, Nadeko is just disturbing but you can't help but feel sorry for her.

The previous episode tells you who that was... it's why he took the job. Unless I am mistaken.

Intriguing how the villain on two previous arcs is now the protagonist of this one. I never thought I'd be saying this, but I'm sort of interested in his back story now.

I wonder how kaiki will trick nadeko. luckily, he is able to get close, maybe even becoming her number two.

unfortunately, because nadeko isn't acting bright, it will be all the harder to change a stubborn mind

Hmmm... it's neither Gaen or Kanbaru because they're both alive and well. Maybe it's Kanbaru's mother? Who knows. Would explain why Kanbaru is only living with her grandparents.

Edit: Also the excuse he made in taking the job was because Koyomi/Senjougahara knows Kanbaru and she's the niece of Gaen.

Everything is alright now. The best girl, Kaiki, is here to save the day. Please try to make my darling Nadeko less insane and...save her? c: I loved his reactions to everything Nadeko was telling him. Not amused.

Nadeko is grade A insane now, but that scene of her and Kaiki...My heart wasn't ready. So moe it hurts.

Kaiki has balls of steel. And he's probably one of the most interesting characters I've seen in this series as of late. Loving this more and more. Can't wait to see how he's going to dupe (if at all) Sengoku.

So glad Kaiki is back he was definitely my favorite part of Nise, seriously love the guy as a character.

And Nadeko... how can one person be so damn cute and scary at the same time.

Maybe the woman Kaiki loved was Kanbaru's mom. That's why he said 'yes' for Kanbaru's sake.

The music at the beginning of chap 12 (around 6 mins in) is too good, Kaiki has the making to be one of the shows best characters.

Someone posted the endcard for the episode before, and that plus the ending - will we see oshino meme again?

And what's in sengoku nadeko's closet? What is Kaiki's connection to the Gaen family? Too keen for the coming weeks.

Same here. I didn't have much of an opinion of him in Nisemonogatari. But I'm really starting to like him in this arc and I very much enjoy his monologues and thought process.

Many people skip them. 1:30 minutes multiplied by 100 episodes does add up. I tend to watch the at least once and then skip them.

Kaiki's hair was win.

I am not sure if I would become a believer or just run away if I didnt know Nadeko.

And obviously Nadeko is many times worse than Yuno.She doesnt even need to do anything.Just by saying what's in her mind she easily proves to be much worse(better).
