It’s been a long time since we saw the second part of the Owarimonogatari adaptation, which was working from the fifth book of the Final Season series of novels that included the Mayoi Hell, Hitagi Rendezvous, and Ougi Dark arcs, this week saw the next piece revealed. The Koyomi Reverse arc is getting its adaptation with Zoku Owarimonogatari with plans for it to arrive sometime in 2018 and now a new updated has provided a little more detail. With word that it’ll be getting fall theatrical engagements in Japan, we have a new key visual below and a new promotional video as well. The previous season ran seven episodes so it’s open to what this one could be and how it could arrive, as that previous season was a two-night event.
The first season saw Akiyuki Shinbo serving as the overall director and handling series composition, it was again be animated at Shaft. Akio Watanabe is on board as the character designer and chief animation director as well.

Ougi tells Koyomi that she has something she wishes to consult with him. When she draws the map of Naoestu High School, she finds something peculiar on the map of Naoetsu High School she draws. This discovery reveals a tale that wasn’t meant to be told, and this makes Koyomi’s high school life totally different. This is the story that brings to light “what” makes Koyomi Araragi. This is the story that reveals the “beginning” of everything.
