So now we see her true feelings, against being kind to people, and against his nature entirely--the person she supposedly liked. If only shinobu hadn't come out in the first place so we could have been spared her stupid self-indulgent rant. It isn't necessarily the other person's fault when you have an awkward unrequited love affair, and in this case, it wasn't his. Maybe 12 should have been the last episode...
Hold on now - if you watched past episodes Hanekawa was more supportive of Araragi's relationship than not. At least that's how it came across to me. Black Hanekawa clearly planned to be taken down by Shinobu - I wouldn't be surprised if her and Oshino planned this entire thing out after Araragi went to look for Shinobu by himself. Hanekawa just wanted Araragi to love her and Black Hanekawa was testing him to see if he was really committed to being with Hitagi.
