The Real and the Fake




Once again i experienced another sleepless weekend and as usual, my head and muscles are aching. It would be nice if i can get some rest tonight and that is something that i am looking forward too (if I'm lucky).

This week has been hot ~_~ really hot. Maybe, that is one of the reasons why i am having a hard time in getting my shut eye. Well, in today's post i am going to impart to you the summary of "NiseMonogatari" or better known as "Fake Story".

The final episode has already been posted and it left me between "wanting more and wanting more". *Heh* It never hit me that this sequel would be this short. I was hoping that it would have run for at least 14-15 episodes before the curtains are closed. Maybe it is for the better because i can't seem to get enough of "Platinum Disco" and "Marshmallow Justice" in my head.

I already said in my previous post that Nisemonogatari requires a lot of patience and understanding. You can even say that "it is not for everybody". This series will confuse you and will make you think that "is this even worth watching?". Well I can understand why you would think that way and in truth, that is what i felt when i first watched Bakemonogatari.

But Hey, i am a Bakemonogatari fan so i sucked it up and watched it until the end. The story revolved around the Araragi sisters or better known as the "Fire Sisters". Araragi Koyomi has not always been in good terms with her younger sisters and in Nisemonogatari, their complex relationship was viewed in full.

Karen Araragi the Eldest among his sisters has a thing for "Justice". It means that she will try to face off with anyone especially if she thinks that he/she is a bad guy. Well, unfortunately for her...the bad guy that she went after was a professional "con man" and he taught her a thing or two about dealing with the likes of them.

Koyomi Onichan came to the rescue and tried his best to fix the problem. The problem was resolved after a chat with the so called conman "Kaiki" and things went back to normal...or so he thought.

As Kaiki exits the scene, a new specialist entered the scene and her target was Koyomi's younger sister Tsukihi Araragi. The reason? Because Tsukihi Araragi is not human. She is an immortal Phoenix bird...nah a cuckoo to be precise and Kagenui Yozoru and Ononoki Yotsugi wants to exterminate her.




Of course, Koyomi onichan will not just stand by and let her precious little sister be exterminated so he fought against this duo with the help of Shinobu. Well, Shinobu is his vampire partner and together they manage to convince them to look the other way.

P.S I hate youtube...they took down the video of Platinum Disco *sob*

Well, it was really short but i enjoyed Nisemonogatari despite having to constantly pump a lot of fluid in my brain to digest the story. Watch at your own volition and i wish all of you a great weekend.



till then...

Keep the Flames Burning!
