Hitagi Senjougahara is a character from the Monogatari franchise, originally a light novel series by Nisio Isin. The series received an anime by Studio Shaft that was directed by Akiyuki Shinbo, giving it a tangential connection to the Madoka Magica franchise.
The Monogatari series first crossed over with Madoka Magica as part of the "Madogatari" event. The crossover was limited to official merchandise and artwork.
In 2018, Hitagi was made into a playable character in Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story: Magia Record, as part of a Madogatari event.

Summary
A gravitational magical girl. One of the 'if' forms... of the heroines of Monogatari series if they became magical girls. She seizes the weight of the object attacked by her hammer. The more she seizes, the more massive her hammer grows, and be strengthened. Her wish was, “Please give me memories”
Doppel Description
The Doppel of tsundra. Its form is a weight crab. The master of this emotion cannot clearly distinguish the subject of her feelings, conducting herself in an awkard, thorny manner. This Doppel expresses its emotions in a similarly severe way: it takes the many stationery supplies that its master carries to compensate for her fading sense of presence, and turns them into weapons by increasing their weight by several hundred kilograms. In contrast to its master, this Doppel can only vaguely distinguish its original form as an Oddity. Even if the subject of its master’s dormant feelings happened to be surprisingly close by, the Doppel would probably use their weight as nothing more than a simple paperweight to hold its own identity together.
Side Story
Hitagi has no side story. The player is simply presented with battles and no story scenes inbetween.
Abilities
She steals the weight of any object she attacks. The stolen mass increases the strength of her hammer. The hammer also has the power of psychometry. When the magic is lost, the owner is crushed by the hammer.
Etymology
- The characters in her last name mean "battle" (戦), "place" (場), and "meadow" (原) respectively. Collectively it can be read as "battlefield".
Trivia
- Hitagi was one of the first two characters announced in Magia Record's Madogatari collaboration event, alongside Nadeko Sengoku. Hitagi is voiced by Chiwa Saitou, who is also Homura Akemi's voice actress.
- In Magia Record she is event limited.
- Hitagi's wish was to regain her feelings which in Japanese can be said as Omoi; that word can also translated as weight. This is why her powers are related to mass manipulation and psychometry. From this viewpoint, it is possible that instead of wishing for memories, she wished to have weight, which makes sense considering her origin story of having her weight stolen.
- Psychometry is the ability to discover facts about an event or person by touching inanimate objects associated with them.
- Her designer is Akio Watanabe, and some of her art in Magia Record is illustrated by Sasagi Koushi.
- Hitagi was born on July 7th, making her sun sign Cancer aka The Crab.
- The kanji of her witch name is a made-up kanji that is the top right half of the word for 'crab' (蟹).
- Hitagi's doppel is based off of an Oddity known as the Heavy Stone Crab in her home series, Bakemonogatari.
