| Breathtaking, Monogatari concludes arcs in most stunning ways, just brilliant. |

mrcmc888 said: Senjougahara seemed way too smug at the end. I mean seriously, you made her stay home from school for two days and you're bragging that you could forgive her? Does it kill you to maybe at least acknowledge you might have gone a bit too far? Well, Oikura WAS the one to start a fight and offend Senjou. Had she not knocked Oikura out it would become something even bigger. (not that I excuse her behavior) The episode was really well directed but had no emotional impact whatsover. I mean, what happened to Oikura's mom was somewhat obvious but I could not feel horrified by the idea. Even though it would be cheap, I wish they were more graphic in that scene. |
| Just amazing. 5/5 |

It's a shame we won't get to see any more of her now, but I guess that's how it goes. Zokuowarimonogatari, my friend. Although not the same Oikura, she will get some screentime with Araragi. |

AmMar-Sama said: The whole mother thing seems unreal. Her mother died without her noticing? She has been taking care of her corpse for years? Seriously? If someone died in my house I would definitely notice because the body will develop an awful smell in a couple of days. Well, whatever. It was a great arc nonetheless. The conclusion was great. With that you can understand how mentaly and psichologicaly Oikura was broken, to take care of a corpse for two years. |

Cozatto said: illivinni said: ok, now I want to know what was written in the letter. Spoiler anyone? (With spoiler tag ofcourse) Just my own interpretation but I think it was nothing. Just blank sheets of paper. She took a step further and left something in the envelope but has not developed enough to clearly write anything one way or another. I think that would get the laugh out of Araragi. |
| DAMN ! That was great !! 100000000000000000000000000/100000000000 The next arc is good too ? Just curious .. |

| I really like Ougi I don't know why, a very good episode by the way. Lucasloco91 said: DAMN ! That was great !! 100000000000000000000000000/100000000000 The next arc is good too ? Just curious .. I just read some sort of summary and it seems pretty good, we'll see. |
| As if this episode wasn't good enough, Senjougahara's message killed me and now I can't get the idea of them french kissing out of my mind ≖‿≖ |
Wait, did you just say that Jojo is shit?  |
| Hanekawa getting wet, so an automatic 10. But damn, this episode was paced well, I thought the episode was about to be over even though only 14 minutes passed. This might turn out to be my fav season if things keep going this well. |

And even more in the Off Season |
| great arc but the name of it is kind of misleading. Ougi is the star of this one. i think the letters are exactly what Araragi thought they were, hence the chuckle. he gave 3 answers and that's exactly how many papers there were. they animated a frame where you could tell that -something- was at least written on one of the papers, so they couldn't have been blank. |
| Man Ougi ripping Hanekawa at the start was great even though i didn't want her to lose to this bitch! in the end she still won,hint scene was pretty hype too loved this arc hope to see Oikura in the future would be a shame for them to build up such character to never show up again |
 |
| Eh eh, amazing episode! Gotta love Ougi ^^  |
| Blacker than a moonless night, hotter and more bitter than hell itself... that is coffee. My anime list My manga list |
| Hay! Tiger Hanekawa is back. Excellent chapter and arc's end. I can't wait for the next week. PD: Koyo koyo <3<3 |
| I am Argentine, so is not very good my English, sorry for the many typing errors. |
| what's in the letter? -__- |
| I'll never know what's written in that letter. Best episode this season, even though I was slightly disappointed with Oikura's reaction to the news. |

|
| Beautiful ending. Nice to see Oikura forgive Araragi and move on. Hope we see Oikura in the future. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| LOL Ougi is really pissed off at Hanekawa , breathtaking finalle for Sodachi's arc i really want to know what happens to her after this |
Mind blown It's been a while since M.S.S. that I've seen Hanekawa's hair  Wondering about the letter  |
 |
| Hanekawa with white hair streak(?) Beautiful. :) I'm gonna miss Sodachi.... :( |

Yhneiil said: 6 more episodes left and we still have two more volumes to go. Perhaps they will skip Shinobu mail and just focus on Ougi's identity? Goddamnit, why is it just 12 episodes. unless they do more than 24 minutes on some episodes. I'm not really sure they can fit the other two volumes if they don't do this. Bakemonogatari couldn't air all 15 episodes on TV because of schedule issues, so they just released the last 3 episodes online for free. If a problem comes up they could simply just do the same |

Ougi Formula, Sodachi Riddle and Sodachi Lost happens between Nekomonogatari: Shiro and Onimonogatari (from Monogatari Series Second Season) Also the next arc, Shinobu Mail, explains what Araragi was doing during the events of Nekomonogatari Shiro (besides beeing lost with Hachikuji) when Shinobu gets lost from him and why Hanekawa encountered with Gaen and Episode. |

|
| Damn, finally it's time for shinobu's mail. Ougi and hanekawa, they both pissed me off, hoped to find their ntr doujin in the next comicon.. |

 生きる気力を失うのと死にたくなるのは人心としてはまた違うものです。 I personally liked this line. Maybe some would think that monogatari is pretentious because of lines like these but I think it's simply some food for thought. I feel like the whole point of the plot is provide examples for the subtle commentaries like this. |

| A fantastic end to the Sodachi arc. Though I wish we could've seen more of her. Oh well. |
 |
| Dang... That's deep. Loved this episode. |
| It's time you look inward and begin asking yourself the big question, "Who are you, and what do you want?" - Uncle Iroh |
| Great arc overall. There you go , Ougi and Hanekawa almost fight again , but still , that theory that Ougi thought was really insane. I realize it after Hint 10. And i was suprised that Oikura didn't even get mad or get insane after hearing the theory. Well, it was a nice way to end the arc. 4/5 Time to figuring out , "who is Ougi" in the next episode, i guess? And i don't think Ougi is Oshino's niece |

| the lost child that ougi talk about at the end, is she sengoku? |
| Nice episode and somewhat nice arc but I want to know more about Ougi than I cared about the other girl and her dead mother... Just seven days. For another episode. |
  |
| Disappointed with the explanation for the disappearance, however the build up was entertaining and still found myself enjoying it to the end. Just really can't suspend my disbelief for that explanation. I really enjoy how Hanekawa and Ougi are sort of foil characters, but yet still two sides of the same coin. Great dialogue. |

| Amazing ep, but I really thought oikura had killed her mother, guess I'm a fool huh The next arc is right after this one or it's somewhere in the timeline? [quote=Vindstot]  Also loved this end card, anyone knows the artist? |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
mugi said: jonjoy said: the lost child that ougi talk about at the end, is she sengoku? Mayoi. Isn't it Sengoku? Didn't this arc already occur after her disappearance? |
| They figured the skeleton of the mom was trash and just tossed it out?:O |

horitsubastudent said: The next arc is right after this one or it's somewhere in the timeline? It happens after Onimonogatari and before Otorimonogatari. It describes what Araragi Koyomi, Kanbaru Suruga and Oshino Shinobu where doing during the events of Nekomongatari: Shiro. |

So he did another time travel? Koyomi i mean.. This arc was already after Hachikuji's disappearance and Hanekawa's encounter with the tiger, but BEFORE the events of the Nadeko's incident. Next arc should explain the events DURING Nekomonogatari Shiro. Remember how Araragi came to rescue Hanekawa from the tiger? Also, the talk between Shinobu and Black Hanekawa on Araragi's room, when Shinobu was trying to find Araragi. |
| This one.. Gave me the feels, and it was sooo good. Im so heartwarmed right now, Oikura was portrayed splendidly i hope to see her again. Good luck, el psy kongroo. |
| Okay, so after rewatching the episode, this time with the knowledge of the fact that Oikura will eventually appear again, I now feel significantly more positively about this episode. At the least, the ending doesn't feel like such a middle finger this time, as I'm pretty sure I have a good idea of what Oikura wrote in the envelope; I'm betting it was one of those tests that she had given to Araragi back in middle school, whatever that was called. It would definitely make sense given his seeming amusement about it. |
| wow that countdown scene was good and then the hint scene Oikura is gone hopefully she'll come back and that was a nice ending to the arc |
 |
| Great ending to arc wonder if we get to see Oikura, Sodachi again. Can't wait for the next arc. |
