Launching the third or Final Season of the international cult-hit series Possession Tale
returns the narrator's headset back to high school senior and amateur savior Koyomi Araragi
who used to eschew friendship once upon a time because it'd lower his intensity as a human-a
loner's misgiving that was perhaps on the mark in a different way than he intended. At issue
now is not the precarious fate of one of his cherished confrères or rather consœurs whom he'd
aid sight unseen with a monster's resilience but his own aberrant state and its prolonged
abuse. If everything comes with a bill and if no man is an island then is the price of
self-sacrificing amity-and the bloodshed it ironically occasions-becoming inhuman for good?
That being said! Our hero whose first name means calendar but who has none in his room sees
no need to rush so on our way to the profound mysteries of the superhuman aspect expect a
super-shallow deconstruction of the alarm clock. On hand this volume to (hardly ever) humor his
humor: his little sisters a living doll of a corpse and its violent mistress.
