The Truth Within Kaiki's Lies | A Monogatari Series Analysis

[@titusg4247]

I think keiki is the human embodiment of what an apparition is, in some ways. The more you believe in his lies, the more caught up in his web you get and the more danger you could end up in. However, if you ignore him, he's no more of a threat than the average man.

Kaiki Deishuu is one of the most complex and well written ‘Adult Male’ characters in modern anime. A man who feels the need to ‘play and embrace’ being the hated one to complete his personal goals, both portrayed and hidden. I can write and read essays about Kaiki any day of the week!

Nice vid. Even if all monogatari characters are unique in their own ways, I ever felt Kaiki was even more original than the others. I really loved him and Koimonogatari is one of my favourites arcs of the serie. It's always a pleasure to see some fan talking about this man. Even more when the video is well made and had some edits efforts put in. So thanks for sharing it ! Good luck with your channel.

I totally agree. I've only seen a few videos talking about Kaiki so I wanted to increase that number considering he's such a cool character. And thanks!!

Kaiki's opinion on the fake is one of my favorite quotes from the series, love the parallels between it and Paarthurnax's iconic quote- "What is better - to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?"

YOU ARE SO UNDER-RATED Really liked your view.

TYYY!!! KAIKI IS JUST SUCH A GOOD CHARACTER

[@aaronlatif52]

Nice video. If you are looking for a quick advice: I would say get rid of the first 56 seconds. You only have so long to catch your audience attention. A minute without anything needed for your thesis is probably too long. I almost turned off the video in your opening sentence. Plainly, it just isn't interesting but the rest is. Its your interpretation and summary on a character. I think you are better off assuming your audience knows part of the subject or they would not be watching. Best of luck growing your channel.

[@2liip]

That's a good point and you're right but at the same time I think a sort of character intro is often needed. So next video I'm going to lessen it but I probably won't do away with it. Thanks for the feedback!!

So he lies for good things ? Right ?

[@2liip]

To some extent. He definitely still does morally questionable things, but he is often seen lying and playing the roll of the villain solely to help others, which I believe ultimately means he’s a good person!
