There are Dark Places in the World, a Home For Ghosts: Bakemonogatari Finally (Finale)
In the end, what I take away is a story of friends and friendship. Senjougahara represented romantic love, and while all the other girls (Hanekawa, Oshino Shinobu, Hachikuji, Kanbaru, Sengoku) flirted with us (yes, we viewers) in creating a harem … Continue reading
