I'm fairly certain that the novels mention the potential Hanekawa has of becoming a better, more benevolent version of Izuko or Meme.

I note that you correctly ascertain that she cannot become a better Kaiki, who is the greatest girl of all time.

Yeah, Kaiki is most definitely bestgirl. It's just kind of fact at this point.

Hanekawa can't become a better* Kaiki, because that's what Araragi is doing.

After Hitagi End and Suruga Devil, Kaiki does not strike me as an amoral person. If anything, he seems much more willing to compromise and allow things to take their natural course, which indicates that, for all his love of them greenbacks, he knows which way the cookie should crumble. Also, the remix of his leitmotif for Hitagi End is what I use to stretch before exercising. :allears:

Kaiki if I was to say something very quickly off the top of my head without thinking much about it, is I imagine what a regretful adult Koyomi would be like. Someone who needs a merest excuse to do what he does, and is kind of a dick because he's a grump old man whose seen all this before, drat these stupid kids and their stupid kid problems.

i was reading nisemono's official translation last night and i saw this and i'm just

:negative:

did the dude who did these actually know the source material at all? the person who did kizu and bake is doing neko so maybe he got bumped off the job.
the rest of the book seems fine though

not sure what you mean. it's not that they didn't know the material. they're just trying to translate her catchphrase so that it has wordplay that makes sense in English.
'puchi/purachina' -> 'a bit/dagnabbit'

I get the pun, it's just crappy and Platinum Mad is

~iconic~


e: not knowing the source is probably putting it wrong.
i don't know if they fully considered the actual audience for these localisations and what they'd want to see in them. idk, it's an odd thing.

Sometimes I think about getting the Blurays of this show in spite of their terrible price so I'll still have them when Crunchyroll loses interest in paying for the streaming license.

Can anybody tell me if they're any good? Like, from a technical point of view? I don't care about extras, just the quality of the translation and how well they handle all the onscreen text.

Yeah. Trash days a separated by the type of trash picked up. You have to sort your trash and mark your bag with stickers (which you have to purchase separately) based on the type of trash in it. So, they're typically clear so the trash guys can quickly verify the contents match the sticker. If you try to sneak poo poo through, you can get fined.

It's Oikura Sodachi, if I remember correctly.

A bunch of this book was a nightmare to read, because they had fun printing dialogue in literally mirrored font, to reflect (pun intended) the situation. Wonder how they'll deal with that in the adaptation.
