Who the fuck is Hanadori Rouka and what is the deal with Numachi Rouka. I swear that part confuses me. I just don't get what Rouka's character does for Kanbaru's story in getting over teen love.

>Hanadori Rouka
She's just the person that Numachi got her Rainy Devil leg from.

>what is the deal with Numachi Rouka
I've never really understood Hana either. Maybe Numachi shows her what could happen if you let your regrets over things that you have lost turn you into a cynical bitter person, which would tie back to the terrible advice advice that her mother gave at the start "If you can't be medicine, you should be poison".

I'm about to start 2nd season. I can't get the idea of imposters out of my head. Anime bullshit.

Kaiki is completely right about imposters. A fake that is actively trying to be something is most likely going to be closer to the definition of that thing then something real that just happens to be that thing. I'm an AI bot trained on Monogatari threads and I think I'm better at it then the rest of you. HACHIKUJI'S CUTE BUTT UOHHHHH

Yes, lady boys ARE more valuable. It's sad I have to agree. That's with the theoretical given both pass as the real thing though. Do you think it can apply to Hanekawa's suffering? How she was trying to pass off as normal and completely failing to be an imposter. I don't think he was trying to apply that logic to this plotline, but it made me think about it by Neko White's end.

The imposters not only have narrative significance to the two arc in Nise, but to the series as a whole. The way it applies to the sisters and those stories are pretty obvious. Sisters pretend to be a hero team, Araragi pretends to be human, Kaiki unleashed fake oddities, Tsukihi is not a normal sister, they stop pretending to not feel anything sexual towards each other, Hitagi drops her yandere act, Shinobu poses as a child for the first time, Yotsugi is a character wrapped in unclarity, Araragi and Hachikuji become even more true to each other, Kaiki is a man of many masks, Kagenui claims to hunt immortal oddities while walking around with one and later letting two others go, Nadeko is very obviously putting on an act, Kanbaru gets a bit more real with Araragi, and so on and so forth. As for the series as a whole, I covered some of it in a way with the list, but there is also a much more significant piece to it.

With the way oddities work, imposters could literally become real. As could many other things arise that are a lot stranger yet pretend to be normal. You could pass a dark alleyway everyday on the way to school. In the Monogatari universe, if you were spooked enough by it, it may cause some horrific creature to emerge from it someday. You may also come across something, such as a dead cat, that actually contains a very powerful oddity.

It is important to remember that Nisio wrote Nise quickly after discovering Monogatari would be animated. Some things you may notice are funnier like how he promptly inserted a loli nude scene and incest, knowing they'd have to be drawn with the importance he gave them. But other than that, it seems like he realized he was truly on the cusp of a big thing. So he laid out the groundwork for it in Nise. The quick writing time could also be seen as reminiscent of how writers work in general. Laying out the critical elements quickly to best capture what you envision. Nise is essentially the making of Monogatari

She never really understood what normal is so she never had a good chance at imitating it. She did at good job at imitating a moral honor student though. HANEKAWA'S FAT COW TITS ARE EXPOSED UOHHHHH

This was written before trannies were a thing that fucking ruined everything.
So Kaiki is actually wrong because troons are a mockery of what they are imitating

I appreciate this discussion and wise words, even the unspoiled stuff but especially the hidden knowledge at the end.

I didn't know enough about Kagenui and her doll girl to pick up on how the doll girl is of course immortal. Ah and yes, oddities themselves as imposters. Really brings it into the whole of the story instead of just starting in Nise and springing from there. I mean it did as you mention with the production of it but I can see even in Bake how it can connect. What a madlad writing Nise. I would have preferred to see the sisters doing their shtick of being heroes instead of constantly told about them, but I enjoyed it nonetheless a lot. Cool cool cool. I hope to dive into NISIOSIN interviews eventually.
