This was so unfunny and lame (but I wasn't actually expecting anything better from something related to Haruhi...), I'm actually wondering if they're not making fun of the fans. Oh wait, they are.

Well this...wasn't what I expected. I was expecting more in the line of Shana- or Index-tan. It was okay but not something wonderful really. Missed chance IMO.

It's awful. I think it's the unfunniest comedy I've ever watched. Kadokawa's trolled everyone again.

It's been some time since I last saw something that bad.
Although I am not counting myself as a Haruhi fan I still think that franchise would deserve a better spinoff.

For a 5 minutes episode, it was pretty good.

I laughed the hardest at the eggplant part.

QFT. I've seen better parodies than this one. Let KyoAni keep it at the actual series, not parodies, please.

Wait? people actually found this funny?

I guess just having the Haruhi Suzumiya name is enough for some people.

The original series was decent, but not worth the hype people give it, and im getting pretty bored of this whole 'second series' teaser announcements and, now, ONA table scrapings.

This little 5 minute clip reminded me a lot of Lucky Star style-wise, in the way the jokes were presented, shame it lacked all of the charm of LS.

Plus Kyon seems to have turned into Kagami? wtf?

Guess I'll have to remux it myself using ordered chapters or some shit.

Good episode, it wasn't maybe exactly what I expected, since I don't know what I expected but I liked it. It's a nice way to tide us over to the (probably never coming) second season.

ha. some parts i didnt expect at all. even though the whole dream plot is weird, the random comedy (mikuru sheep) is great. the beginning with haruhi hitting her head was a nice opener.

probably most of the people who are watching it are just doing it for the sake of haruhi-ism.

now that you mentioned it, it does look like LS style. doesnt look as nice as LS, though.

"I'll surely make you happy"

....A floating Mt Fuji.
And lol Tsuruyahawkcrane. >_> S-SO... CUTE. N-Nagato is so tiny and.... cute. ITSUKI IS SOMEHOW EVEN MORE FABULOUS IN HERE.

SHEEP MIKURU AGAIN AND FHDSFLKHLSDF OH LOL. THAT MADE ME LAUGH BOTH TIMES. D:


-tends to ramble in a Notepad file while watching anime-

Also, the chibi style and OP are cute. :3 Although I'd love to see a chibi version of HHY ahahahah.

I wasn't expecting anything out of this, which is why I chuckled here and there. It has a couple good gags. Given it's 5 min online format, not much you can do except some quick gags. With this format and comedy styling, it reminded me of Axis Powers Hetalia a little bit. Which I also find a nice short diversion.

Essentially, I think most people who watched this either loved Haruhi so much that either A) they will love anything related so they liked this or B) were expecting something so awesome that they felt let down by this and didn't like it.

Eh, it was ok.

I liked Haruhi whipping Mikuru, and when Itsuki busted out his "cool face," but otherwise it wasn't that funny.

still, it was nice to hear all the seiyus back together. maybe one day... season 2... *dreams hopefully*

I wonder if anyone ITT've even heard 'bout Hatsuyume. Cause posts like 'It's so random' or 'Mikuru-ship is soo cute ^_^!!11' are arousing over9000 facepalms.

>Hatsuyume (初夢) is the Japanese word for the first dream had in the new year. Traditionally, the contents of the dream would foretell the luck of the dreamer in the ensuing year. In Japan, the night of December 31 was often passed without sleeping, thus the hatsuyume was often the dream seen the night of January 1. This explains why January 2 (the day after the night of the "first dream") is known as Hatsuyume in the traditional Japanese calendar. It is considered to be particularly good luck to dream of Mount Fuji, a hawk, and an eggplant.

lol, Imouto-chan greeting Kyon with her 'Falcon' kick/punch, and Haruhi-chan flogging Mikuru-chan and shouting: 'Now Jump You! Jump So That He Can Count You!' Random weirdness, but that's ok. This will tide us over until Haruhi S2 makes its somewhat belated appearance.

Meh, that wasn't really good.. but not really that bad either. In any case, it's only 5min, so not a huge waste of time. Best thing was the (seperate) opening.. but still, Nyoron Churuya-san was funnierer overall, imo.
