Araragi-kun, you know, heavy crabs...
In other words, heavy stone gods.
Their name can also be read as "feelings and ties".

Ties of obligation, that is.
In other words, when Senjougahara met the crab, she cut the ties between herself and her mother.
It erased her thoughts about her mother as worries.
It stopped her from feeling.
And her weight was taken away from her.
Willingly. She tricked herself.

This isn't all that bad, but...
In this case, even though you got your feelings back,
your mother isn't going to come back, and your broken family can't be repaired.
Even she knew that. Even so.
Because of this, Senjougahara Hitagi wanted them back.
Nostalgic memories of family
Neck
Hand
She really wanted them back.
Those helpless feelings about her mother.
Those memories and troubles.
Although it could just turn out like Oshino said, and nothing will change...
There's nothing that won't change.
And plus, this wasn't a waste of effort.
At the very least, I made a precious friend.
Who are you talking about?
You.
Thank you, Araragi-kun.
I offer you all my gratitude.
I apologize for what I've done to you up until now.
This might be shameless for me to say...
But I'll be very happy if we can continue getting along well together.
Bro, it's morning! Hey!
You have to wake up or else!
I just fell asleep...
Huh? So you stayed up all night.
Gosh!
You're the only one who hasn't eaten breakfast!
My body is heavy... It seems like I've got a fever.
By the way, I weigh 55 kg.
But...
Come on...
I see.
Gods really are just a sketchy bunch.
That's Deneb, Altair, Vega
the Summer Triangle that you pointed out.
I remember that
and look at the sky.
There's Orihime, I've found her at last
But where is Hikoboshi, I wonder?
It's lonely like that.
We looked up from the pitch-dark world,
and the stars in the night sky were ready to fall.
I wonder when it was,
that I started chasing
after you.
Please, if possible,
don't be surprised
understand them.
These feelings
of mine.
