Recently I've been reading Hitagi Crab, Mayoi Snail, and Tsubasa Tiger on Bakatsuki, and I'm really loving these stories. I especially love how the Monogatari books are generally written in the direction of comedy, but they still can at times maintain an air of mystery and suspense while making the characters' personalities so vulnerable and genuine. Does anybody know what nisioisin's inspiration is for writing the series and designing the novels' eccentric characters to be who they are? Why revolve the series around the theme of supernatural oddities and their intervention in human life?
