Another fantastic episode. I loved the symbolism talk between Hitagi and Hanekwa (It sounded so nice when Hanekwa said ''I'm white. I'm too white. I'm pure white. So white.....White lies of ignorance'' ). Unfortunately that's the only wordplay I could notice.

Senjougahara's tongue is as sharp as ever, I'm so relived about that. I didn't like seeing the fire sisters again =( but Senjougahara's conversation with Karin was entertaining, I love how she easily baited and manipulated her lol. Nice seeing some of the characters return and looking different. I like that, it shows the characters are growing. I can't wait for the climax and the big reveal of this arc, according to the novels readers it gonna be awesome. Another 5/5.

Waaaa, waaa, too good.

Good to see Kanbaru, Hitagi's dad, Karen, Tsukihi and especially SHINOBU!!!!!!!

This season sure has a lot of fanservice. I LIKED IT THOUGH!

Lol at Hitagi provoking Karen. Hitagi too godly.

Tsukihi's hair is too damnnn looooong! Deyum. Their parents are police? lol.

Dat bath scene... wew.

SHINOBUUUUUU. Ka-ka-ka. Didn't expect her to appear this episode. Good to see her getting along with Black Hanekawa. Dat ride :p

What did Shinobu meant by the pairing between Koyomi and Oshino has been severed? This arc happened after Nisemonogatari where Oshino was already gone right?

I'm starting to get curious what's that white tiger is. Considering Shinobu couldn't identify it.. must be something special.

Best scene for me is where Hitagi was trying to forcefully smile by using her hands lol.

YOSHAA, finally got to see shinobu-chan! ka-ka

I can't wait for next week's episode, I think that we'll finally get to see Araragi. I hope that they'll answer some questions..

What exactly is that tiger? and why are Ahinobu and Araragi separated?

It's her
, same thing for Kanbaru, but her hand affects a little bit less.

Loved the episode. Senjougahara being sharp about everything is always pleasant to watch and hear. It's weird how she actually has a better grip of the happenings right now than Hanekawa, even though that's probably because we see it from Hanekawa's point of view. The manipulation scene between Senjougahara and Karen was probably highly speculated as we see more Senjougahara-ish Senjougahara than what she actually is. Gotta add that to my blog.

Oh god, Fire Sisters and Shinobu in one episode, my body was not ready.

That ending too, I will re-watch this tomorrow when a little less sleepy, I really don't get what's behind this all yet though. Can't wait for more revelations and hopefully Araragi-kun.

Maybe the style or delivery is not my cup of tea, but this anime isn't grasping me as it did when Araragi actually showed up in the other seasons.

I feel like I could be doing something else productive when watching these episodes.

Ahh the FMA illustrations were great, especially the Roy Mustang one lol

Man I've missed Kanbaru. And LOL at her sprinting away even though Nisio had her walking away this time, saying "-apparently, she did not always run" but SHAFT did it anyway, probably trollin :P

Man, Hitagi's duping of Karen was a lot funnier in the novel..they only skipped like two lines, but they were the funniest lines.

the (hah) would've been great too, I laughed my ass off reading that.. Though, the head turn was great, I need a gif of that.

The tight-fit tub scene was golden too. As was Shinobu's whole conversation. I need a gif of her ceiling walking too. And Tsukihi's hair scarf was magnificent.

I think they should've shown at least the last bits of the fire at the cram school, but we still get the picture.

Anyway, next episode will be fucking insaaane. Get ready for some out of control symbolism.

Shinobu was talking about herself. Her full name is Oshino Shinobu while the Hawaiian shirt guy is Oshino Meme. But since I never got that far in the LN I have no clue what she was talking about their pairing getting severed.

Senjougahara: Don't call me "this chick"
Araragi: Then what should I call you?
Senjougahara: Senjougahara-sama.
Araragi: SEN - JOU - GA - HAA - RAA - SAA - MAA
Senjougahara: I don't like the way you say it. Say it properly.

Karen and Tsukihi finally appeared along with Yoshino. Haha, Karen is so tall for a middle schooler. She's even taller than Senjougahara. I got so excited when I saw Shinbou's apperance. Shinobu's conversation with Black Hanekawa was great. Wait so is Koyomi at a casino or something? xD Well shit, the abandoned cram school was burned to the ground. Really enjoyed this episode.

Alright, a few notes:

Holy shit! This isn't one of those Anime that mysteriously, the parents are always absent. It might be the case for Hanekawa, but Senjougahara's dad EXISTS! Not just some obscure reference but he makes FUCKING TEA!!!! And not just any tea, MILK TEA.

I wonder how he thinks about his daughter's totally sociopathic behavior?


karen is back! I liked her with her ponytail better... But still, it's Karen, the best of the 2 sisters(Tsukihi really sucked, even her opening theme sucked)

Kanbaru made her first appearance this season, hmm... She undeniably looks better with longer hair, but I think the length from last season's was the best. Anyhow, good to see her back too, I'm surprised she didn't make a sex joke about Araragi-kun(hard to call him anything else)'s invitation.

Okay, the bath scene. With all of them in the bath... How are they suppose to be cleansed? Even if they wash their bodies before getting in, that's pretty cramped.

And the highlight... SHINOBU ON A CEILING!

I loved seeing this animated! Since I stopped reading at Chapter 52 of the Monogatari Series: Nekomonogatari White | Tsubasa Tiger, for now. Can't wait to see what's next starting from Chapter 52 in the next episode, Episode 4!

Kanbaru's long hair was disappointing... but I still love listening to her voice. And I'm not falling for the short hair... Hanekawa, Senjougahara and Karen. Hanekawa is the one who's hair I don't mind as much, but the rest are better with their long hair. Oh well.

... I wonder if I should continue reading or wait for the episode to come out and then read? Because it is fun to know what's gonna happen and the little details of the real story or scenes that sometimes aren't even put in the anime, but its also nice to get surprised by what you don't know. Hmm...

In a lot of series, the Parents are either irrelevant or never appears, this one actually met one of the main characters.

I wonder what she looks like, Hanekawa's description left a lot to the imagination.


VOFAN released artwork of her for Koyomimonogatari. Just a bird view though so you can't see her face.

She was refering to something the Tiger said to her when they met in the first episode.
