A brief recap of Monogatari: Off and Monster episode 7
The episode begins with the introduction of Deathtopia Virtuoso Suic*de-Master. She's a vampire who firmly believes in only consuming the flesh of the people she has killed.
She soon learns about Princess Acerola whose beauty is the reason for the death of thousands of people. Drawn to her beauty, Deathtopia Virtuoso Suic*de-Master attempted to attack the princess and consume her flesh. However, she failed repeatedly and realized that the lowly human had monstrous powers she couldn’t comprehend.
Her lackey, Tropicalesque Home-A-Wave Dog-Strings, was shocked to hear that she not only failed to consume the human’s flesh but also invited her to the castle. A few moments earlier, it was revealed that Deathtopia Virtuoso Suic*de-Master struck a deal with Princess Acerola.
The vampire offered to be the princess’ counsel in the hopes of finding a way to lift the curse. In exchange, the vampire would be able to consume her flesh once she loses her powers.
What to expect in Monogatari: Off and Monster episode 8?

As said by the witch, her curse will be lifted when she finally finds an individual whom she can save. However, this is a dangerous journey, as any human who comes in contact with her, finds a way to sacrifice their life for her as an offering.
That's when Deathtopia Virtuoso Suic*de-Master comes into the picture, as she will be her counsel in this journey. It will be interesting to see how the two work together and achieve their common goal.
