Throughout most her life so far, Hitagi had been afflicted with a supernatural entity. This caused her to be weightless which in turn distanced her from most. It wasn’t until the meddling of Araragi that Hitagi was finally free from the curse. To show her gratitude to him, Araragi became the first friend of hers after so long which eventually led to her confession towards him. Now as boyfriend as girlfriend, Hitagi keeps a strict watch over him and openly admits to being very jealous whenever he is around other girls.

While it may seem scary, Hitagi only acts like this because Araragi was the only significant other person from her father that showed genuine, unconditional care for her. In gratuity, she opened herself up to him. In one of the most memorable scenes in anime, Hitagi offered to Araragi – a starry night sky, which represented just about the last of everything she holds dear and true to her heart. Thereafter, whenever Araragi is in a pickle, Hitagi will always make a last minute appearance and relieve him of the situation that he is before effecting upon him snide remarks to show her contempt for not informing her. Hitagi’s utter devotion to him and masking her worries for Araragi amidst her snarky remarks just shows us her dere side whilst being a tsundere.
