"last". Just wanted to say that Nisio announced that he'll be continuing the series spoiler[Spoilers for it are out btw. Something about Araragi being a Cop, and something about him and Senjougahara having broken up and got together 2 or 3 times... <.<]

Yeah, the Final Season ended and then just other seasons started coming out, because why not. From what I've heard most of it is not really Araragi's story though, focusing more on several side characters. Not sure if it'll end up being animated.

The better arcs (exception being the nadeko medusa) in the series didn't have Araragi as the main or central character in it at all. That was always a great thing about this series: the secondary characters are really well written and could stand (and shine) on their own.

Also there should be a couple(?) of books that are supposed to bridge the gap between tsukimonogatari and hanamonogatrari plot wise that could be animated if the powers to be should chose to after the Kizumonogatari trilogy ends.

The last paragraph of the review sums up my overall thoughts on this arc pretty well. Gaen's dialogue dragging on for so long was near insufferable. It would be fine if what she was saying was adding anything of value or interest to the plot like this franchise's monologues usually do, but it wasn't! But like most Monogatari arcs, the payoff was extremely satisfying.

Some of my favorite moments were Kanbaru's heated argument with Shinobu (and Araragi just eavesdropping on the whole thing), Araragi buying the light novel for Kanbaru and his hilarious musings of lolicon allegations, his touching phone call with Senjougahara and overall I just really like how it dovetails into the Tsubasa Tige arc (one of my favorites in the series). Overall I'd probably rate Owari as a solid 7. Not my favorite season by any means, but it had a lot of great moments, and the Sodachi Lost arc was really solid.
