Bakemono, literally altered thing, which translates as monster. Monogatari, literally thing narrated, which translates as tale. Combined into a neologism by he of the reversible nom de plume, they yield BAKEMONOGATARI, the monster tale that kicked off a series whose anime adaptations have enjoyed international popularity and critical acclaim.
A self-described loser, Koyomi Araragi is struggling at a prep school that he should never have gotten into. He has all but quit caring, but as a senior, he faces the chilling scenario of not being able to graduate. It s time to cram, but the supernatural aberrations that keep on popping up in his provincial town won t let him be.
Previously, our hero turned into a vampire and back, gained an acid-tongued girlfriend, and couldn t find his way home thanks to a lost child. In this second of three parts, which introduces Suruga Kanbaru and Nadeko Sengoku, he becomes embroiled in a case that riffs on a classic English story from 1902.
