It’s the third and final part of my guest appearance on Josh Dunham‘s Senpai Coast to Coast podcast. We finish up our discussion of Bakemonogatari by delving into the Tsubasa Cat arc, paying special attention to the series’ twelfth episode. I truly enjoyed doing this podcast with Josh. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I hope he’ll have me back in the future.

07:14 – That first time is chronicled in the prequel OAV Nekomonogatari. I wrote an analysis of Tsubasa’s character directly after viewing Neko.

14:48 – AniTwitter is coming for you, Josh. And they are coming hard.

Yay! We did it! Again, I wanna emphasize how fantastic this experience was for me. If you’re reading this, Josh, I sincerely appreciate you having me on your excellent podcast. Recording this gargantuan show with you will live long in the memory.
Thanks for listening and watching, everyone! Tweet me or ask me if you want to keep talking Monogats. I’m sure I’ll get around to doing more podcasting about it sooner rather than later.
