About Hanamonogatari

Here is what Hanamonogatari (花物語) is about, retold in plain terms: a drama, mystery and psychological anime by Shaft (2014). In short: Second season of the Monogatari Series, part 2/2. Contains the arc Suruga Devil from the Hanamonogatari light novel.

Soon after, now that Koyomi Araragi and Hitagi Senjougahara have graduated, few familiar faces remain at Naoetsu Private High School. One of them is Suruga Kanbaru, holder of the Monkey's Paw. When she begins to hear talk of a mysterious being known as the "Devil," who will magically solve any problem, she immediately thinks these rumors are about her and chooses to investigate.

In a drama series like this, character writing and emotional payoff matter more than spectacle. Koyomi Araragi (Hiroshi Kamiya) and Suruga Kanbaru (Miyuki Sawashiro) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for viewers who prefer story and feelings over flashy action. With 5 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
