Hey guys, I'm just in the middle of rewatching Bakemonogatari, and I discovered that I haven't scoured the series of its numerous references and stuff that "normal" people would overlook. To those who can answer these questions, I'd appreciate your knowledge.
So here it goes:
1. Is it possible that Hitagi's mother is a member of the Aum Shinrikyo? (Speculative question only.)
2. What does each of the five opening credits of Bakemonogatari tell us regarding the featured character?
2.a. Why is Hitagi depicted as a giantess in the middle of the city in staple stable?
2.b. Does the many Hachikujis in Kaerimichi mean something else? I think it describes that Mayoi does not know that many people and depicts every single person as a version of herself.
2.c. The credits for ambivalent world is quite straightforward, actually. So let's skip that one.
2.d. Same goes for Ren'ai Circulation. Skip.
2.e. Tsubasa's sugar sweet nightmare is probably the most intriguing of all the credits. What does the pyramid symbolize? (Does it represent the Araragi-Tsubasa-Hitagi-Shinobu relationship?) What does the different countries mean? Are they just random countries? And finally, what do the routes written on Tsubasa's body mean?
