NisiOisin's Bakemonogatari Light Novels to Get Anime (Updated)
posted on by Egan Loo
Supernatural comedy stories from author of xxxHOLiC spinoff
The latest print runs of xxxHOLiC: Another xxxHOLiC spinoff short-story collection. The short stories in the two volumes of Bakemonogatari deal with a high school boy named Koyomi Araragi and strange students he encounters. ("Bakemonogatari" is a wordplay on the Japanese term bakemono for supernatural creatures and the term monogatari for stories.) One student, a girl named Hitagi Senjōgahara, almost literally falls into his lap, only to have him discover she has no weight.
Bakemonogatari was one of the first titles in Japan's Zaregoto light novel series.
