    Aniplex announced on Thursday that the Off Season and Monster Season books in NisiOisin’s Monogatari series are getting an anime adaptation at studio SHAFT titled Monogatari Series Off & Monster Season.

    A still shot depicting Araragi doing an intense Shaft-style head tilt, except it has been edited to extended his neck to a freakishly abnormal length

    The Monster Season is real!!

    Returning staff for the new anime includes Akiyuki Simbo as chief director, Midori Yoshizawa (Zoku Owarimonogatari episode director) as director, and Akio Watanabe as character designer and chief animation director. Simbo and Fuyashi Tou are again overseeing the series scripts.

    And Aniplex is taking it seriously! Glad to see that those Kizumonogatari re-release bucks are being put to good use. Also, slightly related: Kizu’s coming to American theaters in 2024.
