I don't mind with novel spoiler. Please tell me why Araragi still need his blood sucked by Shinobu. What will happen to him if he stop that. And is there any reason why he can maintain his superhuman ability by letting his blood sucked?

Oh well beaten to the punch. Anyway, I haven't gotten around to reading Kuzimonogatari, since Westlo has me slaving away for his amusement, so I'm don't know what is in there, but Koyomi and Shinobu have a master/servant relationship which probably has to do with it.

P.S. Do not call Shinobu an old woman and don't be arrogant towards her even if it looks like you have the upper hand.

Oh by the way, since you've read Nise, how is Kimekao-chan (that Yotsugi girl)? I'm all for Bokukko! |

Does anyone have any idea what the two novels coming out next year will be about? According to wiki, one is about Mayoi and the other is Tsubasa. I guess Tsubasa's may be about how her changes will affect her relationship with her family, but I'm not sure how Mayoi's story would work. I'm still not sure why Mayoi gets so much air time, other than to satisfy Koyomi's loli fetish of course...

Mayoi one is probably… her disappearing for real (although seriously DO NOT WANT.) Nisio said he keep Mayoi in the story even though she does nothing because her characterization has a room to expand. The same goes to Oshino, he have him leave the stage because his characterization is already "completed". Maybe it's about time… |

So... despite my Japanese being not that great I ended up picking all of them up at my nearest Comic Tora no ana.
Bakemonogatari 1st and 2nd part. Kizumonogatari and nisemonogatari 1st and 2nd part. The books are super pricey and it was 7600 total :'(. But my question is, is the series already completed or is it still in serialization?

You seems to be lucky to be able to pick up a complete set. I heard it's out of stock almost everywhere in Japan. Quote:

P.S. You don't mind that Goshujin-sama...I mean Hanekawa-sama....I mean Hanekawa cut her hair too? P.P.S. Hitagi slips with Hanekawa's name and calls her Goshujin-sama and Hanekawa-sama since Hanekawa is her master in a sense. After the end of Bakemonogatari, Hitagi asks her for help in trying to learn how to express her emotions and in leaning how to interact with people again. Hitagi keeps it secret from Koyomi though. This situation does provide for some nice gags though.

Since I haven't read nise 2, I'm going to ask it here . Why Hitagi doesn't show up in Nise 2? She always shows up in every arc so far right? So what's the reason they give about why she doesn't show up in nise 2? And what was Koyomi's comment about Hitagi in Nise 2?
