This might be a pet peeve, but i disagree with the "victim blaming" part. There is a line between taking responsibility for yourself, versus taking responsibility for what has happened or is happening. No matter if something is your fault or not, you can only control what you yourself do. There might be unreasonable circumstances that aren't your fault. But it's big mistake to not examine what you can do to improve it, avoid similar situations in the future. If something is a problem to you, the best you can do is to try to fix or prevent it, and be aware enough to not blame yourself. It's also incredibly empowering to be in control. The reason this is a peeve, is that talk about what victims or potential victims should do, is often shut down by focusing only on the wrongdoers. Sure it's their fault, they need to be better, but that usually isn't something we have much control over. I bring this up because the theme of victimhood is central to Nadeko. Nothing was ever her fault, but she was passive in every situation, letting the people and environment control her. She was just there, doing nothing and feeling miserable about it.

2025-02-12 19:43:30 +0000 UTCKagenui's curse that she can't touch the ground for the rest of her life was first mentioned in Yotsugi Doll. Indeed, we have never seen Kagenui walking on the ground once in the entire series. Teori Tadatsuru also had the same curse and explained his and Kagenui's curse to Araragi in Yotsugi Doll. And then in Mayoi Hell, we see Tadatsuru walking on the ground in hell, which Mirror Yotsugi brings up in Zoku as a contradiction. Araragi dismisses the contradiction by saying, "His life was already over, so he can touch the ground in hell." They also touched on it again in Hitagi Rendezvous, when Ougi mentioned that all four of the people who made Ononoki (Tadatsuru, Kagenui, Kaiki, and Oshino), all had curses placed on their bodies for the cosmic crime of making a shikigami from a corpse. At this time we do not know the nature of the curses placed on Kaiki and/or Oshino, so there is much speculation to be had there.
