Another great reaction. Glad to see that you are picking up on some of the details as well. The most important one here is of course the connection between physical weight = emotional weight, even though its the core of this arc many of the not so great reactors actually completly miss even that. At the end of the episode when Araragi also gained the same weight Senjou got back, i do also interpret it as him sharing the emotional burden together with her. A small but interesting detail thats very very hard to catch in the anime thats clearer in the novels is that the reason why Senjougahara was attacked by the crab was actually because she looked up and was therefore disrespectful to the god by not looking down like Oshino asked her to at the beginning of the ceremony. Also i quite like the translation you have for this season here. I does a good job of translating some of the nuance like emotions and weight being a homophone spoken as "omoi". One last thing: If you think about it, Senjougahara is kind of like a crab. Because of her experience she had to evolve a hard exterior with which she can protect herself (this exterior is her verbal abuse and the utensils she keeps on her) but the more you get to know her the more you can see that she actually is a sweet girl inside not dissimiliar to how a crab is very soft on the inside.
if you think about keeping in mind all seemingly unimportant lines - then you better start taking notes. "It's a surprise tool that will help us later" the show. Hitagi got her 45 kilo back with all her burdens. Araragi got 45 kilo too. now her burden - is his burden. lucky he.
This episode also completely recontextualizes the first episode. It was completely justified for hitagi to be absolutely terrified (even though she wasn't showing it much). Being brought to an abandoned building to meet an old guy with a little girl in a corner is so sketchy and koyomi just kind of dismisses her feelings at that point.
it is. It's no surprise that when Araragi asks her to leave all kinds of "weapons" before meeting Oshino, the position she uses with her hand is as if she were opening her blouse to undress. Showing confidence, but afraid that "that" could happen again
