There's plenty going on with Monogatari this week. Not only goes the Kizumonogatari prequel anime movie open January 8th, Utamonogatari -Monogatari- Theme Song Collection, an omnibus of the themes from the anime adaptation of Nisio Isin's folklore mystery series, was released on the 6th. These were promoted at Akihabara Station with an extensive installation featuring Owarimonogatari's history of the series, a life-sized version of Kizu's cast, and a giant version of Araragi's "idot hair" from the Uta cover.

Joining fans, composer/lyricist Megumi "meg rock" Hinata checked out the spectacle.

Elsewhere, the "Kizumonogatari Cheering Committee" has been posting a sketch countdown to today's movie debut
