#this does actually feel like a somewhat apt comparison because there are parallels you could draw between jupiter and tsubasa #or maybe im just seeing things that arent there #but i was scrubbing through kizu and this connection clicked in my head so may as well post it #kizumonogatari #monogatari #we know the devil #my post #screencap #tsubasa hanekawa #jupiter

[studentofetherium]

i think the shed scene in Kizu is really fascinating for the emotional maturity on display, even if both of them are very much lacking in that at this point

there's a lot going on with consent in the scene, on both sides, and there's a sense of discomfort that comes from them knowing that the other person has agreed to this, that it's "okay"... but also it kinda isn't because of Circumstances pushing them towards it

and eventually Koyomi has to stop and realize he doesn't really want this, which leaves him disappointed and leaves Tsubasa disappointed. It's probably for the best, because who knows what kind of permanent damage would be done to their relationship if they had gone ahead and done whatever came to mind

but it still leaves scars, too. these are still two kids who barely knew each other nearly acting on their teenage lust for each other only days after meeting each other for the first time. what happens here informs the rest of their relationship going into Neko Black and Kizu, as what happened can't really be gone back on. this is what sets in motion Tsubasa's feelings for Koyomi, and what sets in motion Koyomi breaking out of his shell but still having lots of repressed baggage that he poorly handles. without this scene, they could have gone on with their lives and had things be far more peaceful. without this scene, their relationship does not exist as it does

#monogatari #kizumonogatari #tsubasa hanekawa #koyomi araragi #this is kind of a ramble but i hope it makes sense

[penultimate-step]

One thing that interests me about Koyomi and Tsubasa's relationship, especially early on, is the contrast between how much they care about each other and how little they really understand each other. From their first meeting, their relationship begins with a complete lack of understanding.

All through Bake, Hanekawa is talked up extremely highly by Koyomi. In his eyes, she's the one who knows everything, the one who is always right. Her own catchphrase might be "I just know what I know," but this is in response to Araragi complimenting her about knowing everything. He rarely thinks that she can possibly be wrong - which makes it almost funny in retrospect to realize that he holds this opinion of her despite the fact that one of the first inferences he every sees her make is massively misreading his own issues.

In Kizu, spurred by the day's sense of melancholy and the sudden absurdity of Hanekawa's skirt situation, Koyomi briefly opens up and is emotionally honest with Hanekawa. (Given that we as readers learn most about him from internal narration, this is bigger than it seems: this is one of the moments when he shares the most about himself out loud to others in the whole series.) It's not his whole deal, not by a long shot, but he gets across the basics: his strained concept of the value of friendship and human connections, his sense of nihilism, and his desire not to have to live as a human: "I want to become a plant," he tells her, "so that I wouldn't have to talk or walk." Honestly I'm not sure what a good response is to someone you are only now having a first conversation with telling you all about his depression, but Hanekawa chooses to reject it. She tells him that normally people would dream of becoming something like a rock, but in his case, since plants are a form of life, "You still want to be a living thing." Subtextually: "You don't really want to kill yourself. You aren't suicidal." To this, Koyomi basically thinks, Huh, never thought about it like that. Maybe you're right. and moves on.

….20 pages later, Koyomi chooses to kill himself for Kiss-Shot's sake, stating, "There isn't a single reason for me to bother staying alive." Kizumonogatari is in large part about Araragi's suicidal depression. Hanekawa, I love you, but you misjudged this one.

Even at this early stage of their relationship, Hanekawa thinks highly of Koyomi, much more than he deserves. As such, when confronted with something she considers a weakness, like his supremely low self-worth, she tries to justify why this isn't actually a trait he has.

Much later, by the time of Neko White, she's gotten a better chance to get to know him and become familiar with his him as a person, including his flaws, enough that she and Senjougahara can list them for hours. But that doesn't necessarily mean she understands him or his motivations - because she cares for him so much, she ends up idealizing his bad traits and his personal weaknesses into charm points and strengths. She says at the book's start that she admires him because of his confidence in his own identity, describing him as a person who doesn't hesitate over questions of who he is as a person or what he should be and do moving forward and comparing herself unfavorably to her own lack of sense of identity.

Readers, having read his narration in Kizu and Neko Black know this is far from true; that he spends a huge amount of page count trying to reflect on where he stands in life. The climaxes of both those books are great examples. In Kizu, Koyomi has a huge internal crisis after seeing the death of Guillotine Cutter. He tells Hanekawa that he is unsure if he is human or monster, worrying even that he'll eat her. He is unsure if he is going to oppose Kiss-Shot or not. And on top of that, his own guilt is eating him alive, causing him to question the worth of all his actions in the book so far. There's no way that this can be called a man sure of who he is, and it is Tsubasa herself who snaps him out of it. He relies on her presence as a guide to move forward. She has first hand experience seeing him experience deep uncertainty as to what kind of person he wants to be, but her narration in Neko White claims the opposite - that his consistency and surety is a trait she admires. A similar kind of struggle happens in Neko Black's ending, though given her own stresses and struggles at the time its very understandable that she didn't catch this one. Time after time Tsubasa is the one to see Koyomi's doubts and greatest moments of weakness, but rather than harm her view of Araragi, if anything it seems to have raised her opinion of him. In her Neko White letter, she admires what she calls "confronting his own weaknesses." She talks about falling in love with him when she saw that he was crying as he saved Kiss-Shot, comparing it negatively to how she showed no emotion and smiles through both suffering and aid. She basically says this outright in the letter: to her, all of Araragi's flaws becomes positive. Moments of self-doubt become moments of self honesty, to cry while acting is to remain true to oneself, and so forth.

Not that Koyomi is a genius at understanding her, either. While he admires her, for most of Kizu a lot of whats going on between them is going on in his head - he's projecting his own issues onto her and he deals with her more as what she represents to him than an equal friend, as he will come to treat her later in Bake and beyond. Neko Black, taking place between these two points, shows him in the middle of this transition.

I feel like there's less to say on his side though, just because Neko Black is much more explicit about Koyomi's failure to understand Tsubasa than Kizu is for the reverse. When she feels obligated by friendship to tell Araragi about her struggles with her family, in a reversal of their first conversation from the start of Kizu, he has this to say about it:

Despite having been friends for a month by then he realizes he has still been seeing her more as an ideal than a person. However, his reaction here, in contrast to when the situation was flipped, also illustrates that his way of misunderstanding is subtly different from the way Hanekawa misunderstands him. Rather than a direct dismissal, Koyomi, while originally ignorant, does come around to understanding What Tsubasa will do. However, he does this while blocking out any understanding of Why she would act like this. He can grasp the actions and emotions, but not the underlying causes.

As an example, near the end of Neko Black, after Koyomi has had some time to internalize his new understanding of Hanekawa, he is able to predict her words to her father before Meme tells him, then later develops a plan to deal with the Cat based around predicting her actions well in advance, first luring her out and then baiting her into attacking him. However, despite all this, he seems to have no knowledge, or perhaps is intentionally blocking out, the motivations behind her actions. Theres a reason she calls him "the worst" when he offers to give his time and energy to deal with her stress. (And much like when he healed her injury earlier, this is him dealing with symptoms rather than the true problem.) Because he's totally misjudging what she actually wants.

A similar pattern can be seen in the Cat chapter of Bake, when he first sees the cat. He realizes this means she's stressed, and can guess at how this will make her act and that things might get dangerous, but has no idea what set her off this time, not until the Cat tells him outright why things got to this point.

Koyomi views Hanekawa so highly, almost like she is incapable of making mistakes, despite having personal experience from the get go that she is very capable of making mistakes and that sometimes her inferences are wrong, and that she is often wrong about him, specifically. Hanekawa is wrong about Koyomi because she does the same thing, and views him so highly that she dismisses and glosses over his faults that she has seen personally. Together, they both consistently fail to understand each other because they place the other on a pedestal without meaning to. And yet, the book is clear that despite this gap in understanding, the friendship is no less for it. The care between the two is real, as is the effort they take in each other's lives.

[aokozaki]

Tsubasa Family Four:

I guess I really correctly identified that self destructive spiral last episode, because Koyomi concludes he can't stop Hanekawa's stress at all, but he can at least force her to want to live - in a mirror of Kizu, he saves Tsubasa from her suicidal impulse, instead of vice versa.

I also think it's funny that the only solution Koyomi has to any problem is to try and use his immortal body to Die at it a bunch. Like, dude, jesus christ.

And, lmao at Hanekawa "not remembering" those nine days. Girls when they lie because their sense of self is built around collapsing down their own desires to be polite and kind. She's too virtuous for real...

Finally, I want to say that I joked that Oshino was trying to imply Tsubasa had a crush on Koyomi, and that Koyomi should consider acting on his own feelings. Only to slowly realize that that's literally what Oshino was doing, and Koyomi missed all the subtext.

Monogatari characters and their fetishes

gonna start this off with the easiest one, Suruga, who has a canon fetish in bondage. that's a pretty wide field in its own right so i don't think there's much else kinky that she'd be into

Koyomi is another one where we have some canon answers, that being, he's a lolicon and a little. as far as physical features go, his type is pretty much Tsubasa, but with a focus on glasses. i imagine he's also willing to play along with Hitagi's kinks, which we'll get to later

Karen feels pretty straightforward: she's into incest and toothbrushing. maybe also something like a sweat kink

Hitagi is definitely a sadist. painplay featuring desk appliances. again, pretty straightforward. these are the easy ones

based on the manga makes by the time of Musubi, Nadeko is probably into very tumblr-core guro type stuff. blood, eroticism of the machine, whatever is popular this week. the gruesome stuff. she also has a bit of a sadistic streak to her

Tsukihi is the most vanilla person you've ever met, or, she has a new weird kink you've never heard of every other week. not sure which

based on the shed scene in Kizu, Tsubasa is probably into rough sex, or maybe even rapeplay. she was pretty disappointed when Koyomi stopped violating her, after all

for lack of any other ideas i'm going to self-indulgently say that Sodachi is into hypnosis teehee

given the child seat in Koyomi's care, i'm going to assume Shinobu is also a little

Shuuen wo nozomu nara Hibikasete agemashou Aoi hitomi no oku he to, mayoi wo kakushite

If demise is your desire Then I’ll resonate with it Hide all doubts within your blue eyes

Kizu mo omoide mo Izure iroasete shimau no Oshiete yo aogu hi no arika sae mo Sono yukue mo

Wounds and memories Will both fade away one day Show me the day you yearned for Let us head there

Sashidashita shiroi hane hirogete Tooi kanata he omou wa kagayaku hi no haruka Sono te ni urei wo hikitsurete

Spread the white wings bestowed upon you Our feelings shine to the distant boundary Take my hand and guide me through your grief

Towa no yume, yurameite Habataku saki to shiru no nara Soko ni wakare wo tsuge Kasaneta hikari to hikikae ni shite

An eternal wavering dream In which to spread your wings We’ll part ways over there So let us exchange our overlapping radiance

Itsuka itsuka todoku hi ga kuru nara Katsute no negai mo yami he tokashite

One day… one day the day shall come And our former wishes shall melt along with the darkness

Shuumatsu wo tsugeru kane Sono te de hibikasete Fuseru hitomi no ura he to Shizuku wo tokashite

The bell which signals the end Ring it with your own hands And let your tears Melt away behind your eyes

Kitto kono yume mo Toki no nami he sarawareru no Kotaete yo kouen no chikai sae mo Sono yukue mo

Surely this dream Shall also be dragged by the waves of time Answer me, and this I pledge We too shall head there

Sashidashita sono tsubasa hirogete Tooi kanata wo omoeba Yurameku hitomi utai dashita Yaiba ni hibikasete

Spread the wings bestowed upon you To the distant boundary we’ve yearned for Let out the song of your frail eyes And have your blade resonate

Towa no yume, kirameite Habataku hikari de teraseba Umareru mirai no ne Itsuka no negai wo michizure ni shite

An eternal, glittering dream If you shine among the fluttering light To the tune of the future being born Guide me to your wish one day

Itsuka itsuka kasunda hi no yume wa Tsukiyo ni shizunde ochiteiku

One day… one day the dreams from those faded days Shall sink within the moonlight, and rot away

Katsute yume ni mita osanaki koe Tooku sasageru inori wa Yoru wo koete toki wo koete Tsugeru kodoku no imi wo

The jovial voice from my former dream offers a distant prayer Across the night, across time itself It delivers the meaning of solitude

Sashidashita tsugai hane hirogete Tooi kanata wo aogeba Kagayaku gin no tsuki Higeki no sanka to hikikae ni

Spread the kind wings bestowed upon you To the distant boundary we yearn for That brilliant silver moon Through this tragic chant

Towa ni hikari no saki he Habataku sadame to shiru nara Soko he wakare wo tsuge Kazashita yaiba ni kuchitsuke wo shite

Towards the eternal light Know thine fate is to take flight Bid your farewell And kiss the hidden blade

Wasuresarareta monogatari wa Kitto yume no mae ni maku wo tojite Tatoe itsuka itsuka katachi wo nasu no nara Ano hi no negai mo Kodoku no chikai to yobizamashite

This forgotten tale Will surely have it’s curtains drawn before it Some day, some day it’ll shape up And so will the wishes from that day Awakening this vow of solitude

Post-Owarimonogatari spoilers I guess

Koyomi and Tsubasa would make a terrible couple because Tsubasa lacks self-awareness (at least around the time of Kizu, obviously her character develops later on) and is really bad at communicating her own feelings in any meaningful manner while Koyomi is extremely self-concsious but is also really poor at reading other people

Tsubasa's poor understanding of her own feelings and emotions makes her think she's in love with Koyomi, but the reality is that she's no more in love with him than she's in love with Hitagi. They're both people she is sexually attracted to and they're both friends who mean a lot to her. The difference is that at the very least Hitagi is a good sexual partner for her who doesn't have the same combination of late-adolesence hormone-driven high libido, low-key sex repulsion, and inability to read other's feelings clearly that Koyomi has

In contrast, Hitagi is a very good partner for Koyomi. She's less perceptive of others than Tsubasa is, sure, but she's still a fairly astute woman who more importantly is very aware of how she feels and does not hesitate to communicate that directly and clearly, which is what Koyomi needs more than anything. The bloke doesn't even perceive other people in the urban environment whose existence isn't directly relevant to him right now. He really needs someone blunt in his life

Koyomi sees Tsubasa obviously lusting after him and thinks that his inevitable physiological response to this must mean he's sexually harrassing her, Hitagi sees Tsubasa being obviously sexually repressed after years of living without privacy and thinks "damn, Tsubasa really needs to get laid" and then goes ahead, comes on hard to Tsubasa and then sleeps with her

Koyomi's trouble perceiving what others are thinking or feeling without having it stated to him extremely bluntly a big part of the significance of Sodachi's character. Sodachi is the anti-Hitagi in a lot of ways. She expects Koyomi to pick up on what she is feeling and what she wants from him because it is glaringly obvious to her and she can't conceive of him being as poor on picking it up as he is, which frustrates her because she knows that Koyomi is the sort to view a situation entirely through a lens of trying to actively help or at the very least give advice

Koyomi completely lacks a super-ego where Tsubasa's entire personality has been consumed by the super-ego, and much of her character development revolves around the process of her finally gaining a proper sense of self after eighteen long years of only existing in relation to others, and even then those relationships with others have often been hollow shells of what a familial relationship is supposed to look like, so estranged from her supposed parents that she doesn't even have her own bedroom. In this sense Tsubasa is the anti-Koyomi much as Sodachi is the anti-Hitagi, and that is why I ship Sodachi x Tsubasa
