Suruga, the main character of Suruga Monkey, is Koyomi's underclassman, star of the school's basketball team and one of Hitagi's acquaintances from back in junior high school. She is so well known in her school that not a single student had not heard of her, mostly because it was her who was responsible for the rapid rise of success of the school's girls basketball team due to her talents. She considers herself a lesbian, fujoshi, lolicon and masochist. Her hobbies include reading yaoi literature and playing basketball. Although her sexual preference is clearly towards females, she does not have a hard time interacting with males, and she even manages to say teasing remarks when she is comfortable with the person she talks to (i.e. Araragi). She is 160 cm tall.[br][br]Suruga is a girl with brown eyes and dark bluish hair. Because of her club activities as a basketball varsity player, she boasts an athletic physique, although she admits that her breasts might not be ample enough for Araragi to notice.[br][br]Her clothing style reflects her boyish personality; when she is not in the uniform of Naoetsu Private High School, she often wears sleeveless clothing and shorts. Whichever clothes she wears, she is regularly seen wearing cycling shorts, which she considers to be her underwear, much to Araragi's shock upon hearing it straight from her (as it implies that she does not wear panties).[br][br][spoiler=спойлер]Hidden from others, however, is her tendency to be jealous of others to the point of thinking of causing bodily harm to them for revenge. This would eventually fuel her killing intent as the Rainy Devil.[br][br]Back in elementary school, she inherited what she thought was a monkey's paw. At this time, she had been teased at for being slow in track. Because of this, Suruga decides to use the monkey's paw to grant her wish to become the fastest among her classmates. Unexpectedly, her competitors in one race she would participate in were attacked by an unknown assailant and were absent the next day. This would soon continue for some time, and this caused Suruga to be afraid, especially upon her discovery of the novel The Monkey's Paw, which tells the story of a similar item that grants wishes for a certain price.[br][br]Suruga would soon shift her focus to basketball, where she immediately shone as the school's ace player, and this caused Hitagi Senjougahara, the track ace at that time, to take notice of her talent. She and Hitagi become close friends, with Kanbaru calling their pairing the Valhalla Combo (ヴァルハラコンビ Varuhara Konbi, formed by the "varu" from Kanbaru and "hara" from Senjougahara), and she soon forgot about the monkey's paw. Immediately after she entered senior high school, she became aware of Hitagi's secret and was threatened by her, just like Koyomi was. However, unlike the persistent Araragi, Kanbaru followed Hitagi's advice and stopped talking to Hitagi since that time. However, she then started stalking Koyomi after she discovered he was dating Hitagi.[br][br]In Suruga Devil, there seems to be a rumor about a devil solving other people's problem. Fearing that she might be the rumored "Devil," she decided to investigate and found out that the rumored Devil is actually an old basketball rival of hers named, Numachi Rouka. It seems that Kanbaru is still worried about the effects of the Rainy Devil after it has been dispersed to the point that whenever she goes to sleep, she would bind her devil's arm to a pillar so that she wouldn't start sleepwalking and committing crimes and check the newspaper everyday so that she can make sure she didn't do anything unconsciously. She also has dreams of her mother once in a while which give her weird life lessons.[br][br]She is named Kanbaru Suruga now, but she was previously named Gaen Suruga. Izuko is her aunt and Suruga's mother had some kind of connection to oddities as she had inherited that devil's left arm from her mother. Her mother and father were revealed to have eloped as the Kanbaru family did not agree with their relationship. Kanbaru is also the only person that Kaiki will ever treat in a good way.[/spoiler][source]https://myanimelist.net/character/22054/Suruga_Kanbaru[/source]

The main character of Nadeko Snake, is Tsukihi's friend back in elementary school. She always wears a waist pouch, always casts her eyes downward, has her bangs covering her eyes, has a shy personality, and can be easily amused. Koyomi played with her a lot whenever she visited his house after being invited by his sisters. She refers to Koyomi as Koyomi onii-chan and appears to have feelings for him.[br][br]She's quite protective of her hair (particularly her forelocks) thinking that it's her place to guard more than her panties. When she finally combed her forelocks aside in Nisemonogatari, Koyomi commented that she has a glare just like a serpent, probably foreshadowing the story of Nadeko Medusa.[br][br][spoiler=спойлер]She was cursed two times by a classmate who liked the boy she rejected, and the rejected boy. While the first one is banished, Koyomi is forced to battle the second to keep it from killing Nadeko.[br][br]During Halloween, Nadeko met a girl named Ougi who gave her a white scrunchie. After, she was able to see a white serpent, Kuchinawa, in the place of it. In Nadeko's class, the atmosphere has become strained and because Nadeko is the class rep, she's been pressured to do something about it. Later on, Kuchinawa tells her to go to the shrine where she last sacrificed snakes in Bakemonogatari. He commands her to atone for what she did by finding the remains of the snake god that inhabited the shrine in the past.[br][br]She tries not to involve Koyomi, but he manages to find her at night and takes her to his house. She wakes up next to Tsukihi and manages to bring up the topic of Koyomi's girlfriend. Finally, Nadeko reveals her jealousy toward Hitagi, but claims that she would never try to steal him. Tsukihi says that she planned to support her if Nadeko was going to do so. However, since Nadeko instead said she doesn't want to trouble him, Tsukihi says it's as if after all these years passed, that Nadeko is using her brother as in excuse to reject boys from her school. Tsukihi loses her patience and suddenly cuts Nadeko's fringe. This way, she wouldn't be able to hide her face or emotions anymore, which she later attempts again with her teacher. Yet without her fringe, he can see that she isn't disturbed at all. Nadeko ended up very "uncharistically" snapping at him and after, to her classmates. The serpent then tells Nadeko that its remains are in Araragi's house, where she finds the paper charm Gaen previously trusted Koyomi with.[br][br]Kuchinawa offers to grant Nadeko any wish, and she already knows what to ask for: Koyomi to love her back. She says this in front of him, but he says that her desire cannot be granted. After some of Shinobu's provocation, Nadeko eats the charm and becomes an oddity, sharing her body with Kuchinawa, and her hair turns white with each lock becoming a snake.[br][br]As an oddity, Nadeko reveals her true colors: an obsessive, egotistical, cynical girl, who would not hesitate to kill in order to keep her delusional and impossible love story.[/spoiler][source]https://myanimelist.net/character/22050[/source]

The main character of Nadeko Snake, is Tsukihi's friend back in elementary school. Nadeko wears a waist pouch, casts her eyes downward, has bangs covering her eyes, has a shy personality, and can be easily amused. Koyomi played with her a lot whenever she visited his house after being invited by his sisters. Sengoku refers to Koyomi as Koyomi onii-chan and appears to have feelings for him. She's quite protective of her hair, thinking that it's her place to guard more than her panties. When she finally combed her forelocks aside in Nisemonogatari, Koyomi commented that she has a glare just like a serpent, foreshadowing the story of Nadeko Medusa.
[spoiler=спойлер]In "Nadeko Snake" arc Sengoku was cursed two times by a classmate who liked the boy she rejected, and the rejected boy. While the first one had been banished, Koyomi is forced to battle the second to keep it from killing Nadeko.[br][br]In "Nadeko Medusa" arc Sengoku reveals her true colors: an obsessive, egotistical, manipulative and cynical girl who because of her unrequited love had resorted to becoming a destructive deity enshrined as a god in North Shirahebi Shrine. Her immaturity of thought gave her the desire to kill Araragi, the object of her unrequited love. The arc was revealed as a decoy made by Nadeko herself to push the blame of turning into an oddity onto a scapegoat of a wristband she called "Kuchinawa", maintaining her act of being the victim. Her obsession with her forelocks was also shown to be an allusion to how she hides her true self by appearing as a hapless and cute girl. Eventually, Kaiki resolves the situation by reminding Nadeko that her identity is not fully defined by her unrequited love, and that become a mangaka, one of the dreams or hopes of Nadeko revealed in this arc, is also a reason for Sengoku to move on past her unrequited love and to move on with life. Nadeko complied.[br][br]In "Koyomi Reverse" arc Nadeko is an "ex-god" in North Shirahebi Shrine as Mayoi Hachikuji has been enshrined. She speaks like a tomboy, drinks copious amounts of alcohol and has rude mannerism in this arc, confirming the boyish and brattish side of Nadeko as a part of her real personality. It is also revealed that Sengoku had regretted this part of herself.[/spoiler][source]https://myanimelist.net/character/22050[/source]
