Last episode, I looked at the very beginning of the Monogatari Series and the story of Hitagi Senjougahara; this time we move onto the story of Mayoi Hachikuji! In this session, I talk about episodes 3 to 5 of Bakemonogatari, also known as the Mayoi Mai Mai Arc. How are ideas linked with visual codes? How does this arc differ to the Hitagi Crab Arc? And most importantly, where does surrealism fit into all of this? On the side, I talk about Zutomayo's latest music video, Darken!
