I am using the pdf, but I'll try to keep notes when I notice an english error, but since it's not my native language, just take what I say with skepticism

Not really, but it's good to know that Monogatari does not have only Hitagi fans, and lolicons as its audience

By the way, I guess it is/was obvious that I am also her fan, but reading Kizumonogatari I think I upgraded from fan to her slave

...and we really need a thread for her epic moments:

Spoiler for kizu ch.9/10:

Hehe, Kizu is the first novel I am reading on paper, up until now is just manga or txt with rikaichan and more advanced friends. So yeah don't expect for me helping translating anytime soon, I just noticed some errors in english, basically grammar, which is totally understandable before editing.

Anyway, since now I am midway in Kizu- (after a month of trying to learn a shitload of kanji compounds) a quick question concerning the series... Neko- Kuro and Shiro do not have some overlapping storyline... I think I read somewhere that Kuro is the end of the first Monogatari series and Shiro the beginning of the second part. Kuro basically narrates Tsubasa's Golden Week, while Shiro picks up the story from where Nise- stops, right?
