Deja Vu.. A fairly common phenomenon..

I feel as though I had been experiencing it since the start of the 15,527 loops. The feeling is very strong... I can almost tell what happens next.

Props to the fanboys voting 5/5, mad respect for you guys showing that you are willing to love this abomination of a show no matter how many times they b-slap you in the face. No allow me to correct myself they actually slap you across the ear continuing with the face. That's a real b-slap. It's nice to see you people take it though.

KyoAni isn't trying to troll, they are trying to be original. You can be original in many ways, like let's say coming up with a concept that has never been heard of before, something like a really good story and then an end to the show that really ends it, ties all the knots together and gives the viewer a really good feeling about having wasted his or hers time on their popular culture. I have yet to come across that in anime.

But nah, nah it's ok to waste your time on this aswell. Right now Haruhi 2 is ranked like 1,300 or something? The first season is ranked 35. I don't really like that you can rate animes that haven't finished airing, but in this case it depicts the correct picture.

Why would you think that? It's the seventh, not eighth.

That's an interesting thesis.... I am curious wether you're right or wrong

Tonight on 'It's the Mind' we examine the phenomenon of déjà vu — that strange feeling we sometimes get that we've lived through something before, that what is happening now has already happened.

I want Endless Eight to end with something big happend (for ex. Kyon and Haruhi kiss) to compensate the disappointment in the end of each previous episode.
But unfortunately...

Aren't we all surprised...XD

I'm not feeling mad the slightest bit but...I'd quite welcome a major change. Such as an end to this maybe...Oh, well,after all, it might end with the next and 8th episode? Although it would be trolling at its best to end it with the 9th =DD

I agree with everything except the "sadly". It would be perfect if it ended next episode. It truly is a great concept, but I will be disappointed if they go beyond the eighth. Although I guess I'll still bear it if they go with 9, just to have 8 repetitions + 1 for the solution. I'd prefer it if they end it on the 8th though :)

Haha, i lol'd at almost everything that was new in the dialogue.
Gets funny the 7th time around.

BTW, did anyone notice the last scene where haruhi gets up to leave and kyon is having his mental breakdown, It was in 3d! If you got 3-D glasses wear it and watch that scene 8)

Hands down pants. Finally, something different. And I'd count the grunt he makes when answering the call to be among Endless Eight's most entertaining moments. RRRAARRRURRRUGH!!!!! :-D

Although those new piano background pieces are beautiful...I almost didn't mind that I was watching essentially the same thing for the 7th time :-D

Only one more! And I'm determined to finish it forever tonight, so let's do this!!

BTW, if I ever feel the need to rewatch this series, this one is probably the only EE ep I'd watch. It's just that much more different while still keeping in the whole 'loop' theme as opposed to either the first or last episode

Well, now I understand all the hate on endless eight. It's almost made to drive you insane. I hope the next episode make it for those painful five last episode...

Endless Eight is A-OK with me!

Seriously, though, watching essentially the same episode on repeat is making me notice things I didn't notice previously. Like how terribly depressed Yuki looks all the time; gosh, I want to give her a hug - poor data entity processing girl, having to sit through some 500 years of Suzumiya bullshit. Or Itsuki's smile. Everyone around the dining table looked all burdened and melancholic because they figured there was nothing they could do and they were going to repeat those two weeks over and over again. Everybody except Itsuki, that is, who keeps on smiling regardless of the occasion. Itsuki is a real bro.

So, next week is the week Kyon proposes to Haruhi and finally ends the Endless Eight, right?

I can't get tired of Koizumi's mood when he's stating that they're stuck in an infinite time loop.
