Spoiler for 12:

Probably an abstract or zany Shaft scene for the part where Senjougahara is whispering naughty things to Araragi.

The car ride is going to be interesting how they handle that since they stay still for a very long. I'm expecting a lot of pans, body shots, and some reaction faces.

As far as the picnic scene, this has to be done really really well. There is a sense that Araragi sees something really magnificent and thats something Shaft has to convey through the visuals. I'm thinking they might use an acoustic or instrumental version of Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari during the important parts.

As far as length goes, it's a pretty short chapter so.. hopefully the good parts are not cut.

Anxious and excited for it Shaft. There's not much to animate but what you do animate has to be pretty tight.

Actually this chapter is probably the longest chapter in any of the novels. The Hitagi Crab arc itself is only about 90 pages and Tsubasa Cat is about 235 pages long. As short as Hitagi Crab was in the novel, they still cut a bit of stuff from it. Reading things makes them go faster since you don't have to account for pauses in between dialogue and periods of silence.
