The translated description for Orokamonogatari:

"The young girl Ononoki Yotsugi continues her surveillance of Koyomi, who's been recognized as harmless, and Tsukihi, who is an immortal oddity. She has been continuing to pretend to be a doll in front of everyone but Koyomi, but she is accidentally seen moving by Tsukihi, and then...... ?"

From the Okitegami jdrama website that got updated recently.

So where chronologically would the new novel take place? Are we meant to assume that Yotsugi is gonna live in Araragi's house forever or something??

If there is Tsukihi, then probably it takes place between Tsukimonogatari and Owarimonogatari 3. Because Araragi eventually moved from his parents with Senjougahara, and since that time there would not be that much of chances for Youtsugi to be spotted by Tsukihi.

Wait, so Yotsugi moved with Araragi? Wasn't she supposed to be Karen's possession technically?

Yeah, I'm curious about this as well. Surely she wouldn't move in with Hitagi and Araragi in their college apartment or whatever.

I thought she moved with him. Because her reasons to stay with him was not only to upset Ougi's plans, but also to keep an eye on him, being able to exterminate him when it will be necessary, since he was turning into a vampire. After events of Zokuowari it's only logical for her to keep on staying with him. I guess. And Hitagi was adored by her (buuuut in not so canon short story Hitagi Fugure though).

Ononoki and Godzilla-Slug on the novel cover.

DeliriousEagle · 2015-09-17, 13:51

Quite adorable

nanarahi · 2015-09-26, 21:57

Someone knows the day owarimonogatari will air?? i know is in october, but i don't seem to be able to find the exact date. Also, anyone knows what are they planning to do with zokuowari? I mean, will it be animated separately?. And my last question is, any news regarding the new novel?. Sorry if any of this has been already answered or if i broke some rule or smthg, new to animesuki

d-rew · 2015-09-27, 01:18

I can only answer the first one but 10/4 is the air date (in Japan).

Pi-face · 2015-10-05, 02:31

Some preview illustrations from «Orokamonogatari» novel.

Spoiler:

Sooo. Tsukihi (or this is Mayoi?), Ononoki, Sodachi and Kanbaru? This is certainly interesting. I guess this one is AFTER Hanamonogatari (because of Kanbaru haircut).

Already shipped to some Japanese bookstores.

Pi-face · 2015-10-05, 03:40

And there is an announcement for a new novel called「業物語 (Wazamonogatari)」
Release date: 2016, new season is called «OFF SEASON» (I think it's a clever wordplay with a Spin-off)

The ride never ends. Honestly this series has come a long way since Nisio saying Tsukihi Phoenix was the last story.

Pi-face · 2015-10-06, 01:06

Really weird and creative promotion of «Orokamonogatari» light-novel.

It's masochist heaven!

DeliriousEagle · 2015-10-06, 08:22

Huh three different stories in the LN?

omimon · 2015-10-06, 11:21

From what I have found it seems the new book contains three stories featuring Sodachi, Kanbaru and Tsukihi as the main characters. Each story seems to be about each character acting stupid.

Probably a spin-off by definition in that they don't effect the lore too much.

Pi-face · 2015-10-06, 14:15

Stories names are 「そだちフィアスコ」・「するがボーンヘッド」・「つきひアンドゥ」

I'm not sure how to translate them... I could translate them as Sodachi Fiasco, Suruga Boner (failure) and Tsukihi Undo, but... I'm not a pro in Japanese.

According to various reviews all these stories have mystical atmosphere, some funny and light elements as well as different narrators. Well, I'm totally sure in case of one narrator - Oikura Sodachi.

I cannot agree with that, because one of these stories is about monkey's paw, which is part of the main plot. Yeah, I know that main plot is actually about Araragi Koyomi going from "I want to become a vegetable in another life" to "there are so many things I wanna do", but still.
