Heavy Crab
Heavy Crab is a deity that appears in the anime series Bakemonogatari. He is a large, crab-like creature with a human face. He is said to be the guardian of the crab-filled lake at the foot of Mount Fuji.
In the series, Heavy Crab appears to Araragi Koyomi when he is investigating the disappearance of Mayoi Hachikuji. Heavy Crab tells Araragi that he is the one who has been taking Mayoi, and that he is doing so in order to protect her from the dangers of the world.
Araragi eventually defeats Heavy Crab, and Mayoi is returned to safety. However, Heavy Crab's final words to Araragi are that he will be back, and that next time he will not be so easily defeated.
Heavy Crab is a powerful and dangerous creature, but he is also a complex and sympathetic character. He is a victim of his own nature, and he is ultimately trying to do what he believes is best for Mayoi.
Heavy Crab's story is a cautionary tale about the dangers of trying to control others. It is also a story about the importance of understanding and respecting the natural world.
