| That conversation with Sengoku was a bit unsettling. No wait, Nadeko is just disturbing but you can't help but feel sorry for her. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| 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. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| 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 |

Though I'm curious about this scenet: http://imgur.com/a/Sdx8k 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. The previous episode tells you who that was... it's why he took the job. Unless I am mistaken. 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. |

| If only the first 20 episodes had been this good... |
| Another fantastic episode. dbaranyi said: If only the first 20 episodes had been this good... You say that because you relate to Kaiki you both being old cynics and all. |
 |
| 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. |
| nadeko is so kawaii wuldve loved to see her running around topless huehue haha |
    |
| Good to see Nadeko again, although she is a bit crazy this time around. |
 |
| Nadeko is the ultimate yandere. Also, Kaiki has some awesome monologues. |
| one of the best episodes so far probably in my top 5 of this season so far. this is definitely my favorite anime of the year by far nothing else even comes close |
| 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. |
| "Ogon’ po gotovnosti!" |
| The best and unrivaled arc continues. I just noticed Kaiki art in ED has his new hairstyle. |
| 日本人はイッちゃってるよ あいつら未来に生きてんな |
| 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. |
 |
| Kaiki is really getting interesting. Love the moment Nadeko tells kaiki about Koyomi's weird tastes ... <3 |
| I started laughing like an idiot when they got on the topic of service and Kaiki was just like wtf is with Koyomi's head xD |
VanishingKira said: More Off-screen New Year's SEXY TIME~!!!"He won't.He's going to spend the night with me—" Hmm...what going on here. |
| Maybe the woman Kaiki loved was Kanbaru's mom. That's why he said 'yes' for Kanbaru's sake. |

| Medusa and her yandere logic gives me a headache. "I love him so much I am going to kill him, totally kill him." Great episode!!! |
 |
jpem said: Kaiki is really growing on me. 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. I wonder what's the reason behind Oshino upcoming appearance (¬‿¬) |
 |
| Kaiki is cool. Makaizen said: ExecRory said: I agree, where's mah new OP?Still no OP ? 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). |
| such an awesome episode...already anticipating for episode 23. senjougahara asking kaiki for money for her flight home. she probably did that out of spite haha i love nadeko's yandere side. soooo cute. ...and kaiki, don't look down on lolicons LOL! |
 |
| "I never lie" - Kaiki Deishuu Nadeko-chan ;_; It hurts to see you so crazy T-T I nearly hated Kaiki during Karen Bee, but I'm starting to warm up to him thanks to the epic dialogue and soliloquies :) I really enjoyed his chat with Nadeko |
 |
| Absolutely loving this arc. The Senshougahara and Kaiki exchanges are a delight. Kaiki some much needed cynicism, intuition and and adults perspective on things. He manages to "get" what Nadeko is all about in a very short period. This show/story advances the Senjougahara/Araragi love story so much off screen that It makes me just a tad mad (could we ever get another episode 12 please?). So not only do we know they might spend the night together, but they're actually at the stage when their parents already know each other? That's pretty big, specially in Japan. |

Though I'm curious about this scene: http://imgur.com/a/Sdx8k My bet on Suruga's mother too. But I doubt she was his lover. Probably it was just unrequired love. |
 |
| Kaiki is such a magnificent bastard. Nadeko is one crazy girl. I want the next episode right now. |
an egomaniac and a fool |
| Kaiki: "I have never told a lie" I lol'ed. Anyway, really loving it that Kaiki is back. Strange that Nadeko's parents wouldn't even open her closet even though she's missing. Also SO SO SO glad to see and hear Senjougahara more frequently now, good arc to do last. |
| Honestly, I didn't enjoy the series as much whenever it wasn't in Araragi's perspective (Hanekawa arc and Nadeko arc). But for some reason, I'm really enjoying this arc with Kaiki's perspective! Maybe this means I enjoy it more on a guy's perspective, or maybe Kaiki is just that exceptional as a character. |
| Kaiki is pretty awesome so far. I want to know what's in that closet! I've been wanting to know since Nisemonogatari! I don't mind not having a new OP because it means more time for the story and dialogue. Best arc so far. |
| lol, is that top secret closed gonna be an important plot point? Interesting. |
| Kaiku being awesome as usual. That Sengoku is just so kawaii. I almost forgot that she's the villain this time. |
| Kaiki, you gotta break into that closet! It was an awesome episode. |

| To be entirely honest this episode was nice till the point Nadeko appeared she was really annoying for the most part i was thinking she needs a good slap or something like that. And she got more annoying as the episode moved on. Kaiki is ok a guess i don't dislike him but i can't say i like him either, he does make things interesting in a way. And his behaviour does indeed follow the pattern of a good scam artist he is sharp pays good attention and is a good judge of personality in people. Despite his uncaring personality he gives of. |
| Am I the only one who likes Nadeko the way she is now, compared to before? She seems more at peace with herself, even if she's a twisted goddess with murderous intent. And Kaiki is turning out to be more interesting than I took him for during Nise, though even he admits he still can't be trusted. I too now wonder what Nadeko keeps hidden inside her closet. Something tells me it's gonna be something important. |

| Seeing Kaiki in action was marvelous The continuation of Senjougahara's conversation with Kaiki was full of thoughtful comments Asking money for the return ticket was hilarious I didn't expect a cheerful Nadeko at the shrine Kaiki's mind to asses things and starting a chat were interesting |
| Another great episode. It's hard to not like Kaiki no matter how many bad things he's done. Easily the best character in the series. I'm guessing his lover died in an accident. Looking forward to the rest of this arc. 5/5 |
 |
| Kaiki is so bad ass. Lol at Nadeko going full commando. |
| And Kaiki is officially the best narrator for the show. FACT. |
| Kaiki may be the most honest character in Monogatari! At least he admits he's a big fat liar... All the other characters are filled with inner conflicts and false appearances, intentional or not. Of course that's what makes this series so darn good! Is Kaiki a "bad goodguy" or a "good badguy"? Is there a difference? Outrageous Prediction: (note: I haven't read the novels, so it's just a wild guess) Chance of being correct = 0.01% |
