| I like the end of the episode. Why did I never try that in school? "I didn't do my homework because I believed myself to be trapped in yesterday so I went to bed thinking today would be yesterday again and then all of a sudden I broke free and time started to flow normally again." Someone said that each episode of this season was the same so when I checked the list of episodes and saw that it was indeed repeating I was afraid it would be as I had been told. However, this episode, while mainly following the plot of the last, was quite different so it didn't get boring. Well, since there is still 6 episodes to go I wonder how this will continue... |
| I still don't hate the endless eight lol xD Let's see in a couple of episodes. And I laugh always when Koizumi comes close to Kyon, and Kyon gets all "Too close" xD |
| very interesting episode! I wonder how it will proceed! |
 |
| I gotta say that this episode was a LOT better than I thought it was going to be! I was expecting this episode to be exactly like the last one (like, same animation and everything), but the scenes were really changed up a lot. And the last scene where Suzumiya was walking away was super exciting. It felt like a completely different episode for me. But now I'm worried that this episode might be exactly like the NEXT episode. And maybe the next one. And the next.. Hmm.. Just gotta keep going and see! |
| It was a good episode, but personally I thought it was a little *too* similar to the last one. It still had some great character moments and the whole Endless Eight senario is still pretty interesting, but personally I felt like it was a little too much like a repeat with different camera angles. There weren't enough differences to justify it's own existence, IMO. 7.0/10. |
| I find it very odd that Kyon's sister calls him by his name and not onii-chan. |

Everyone's saying it's painful, but it's not that bad o_o okay, well at least not yet. Poor Yuki, it's been like almost 16k times they've repeated this, no wonder she looks so sad D: Man that's a huge number...it's weird how no one noticed it until now. |
| I thought it would be very similar to the last one but they changed a lot of the scenes up to still make it entertaining. 2 down, 6 to go. |
| The statement below is true. The statement above is false. |
| Endless Eight weren't that bad. Only complaint was that the "repeated events" took up too much of this episode's scene, so I was literally watching the same thing occur over the previous episode. |
DNF said: Same here, in the end :DOh wow, I first thought I downloaded the wrong episode :P I felt the pain of the the characters this time. Kyon was so tired at this point :/ On another note, I like the new character designs. They're great. |

Veethorn said: Wow I really liked this episode, the whole thing is just too unbelievable, I freaking love the mystery and suspense of this show. Anyway, I guess I will jump to the last endless eight episode, I don't want to ruin this great sensation by watching the same thing over and over again. This summarizes how I feel perfectly. This was so surreal. I'm really tempted to skip, too, but... man, that's cheating. ;-; |

| so yuki repeat the same two week over and over again (594 years)..... i feel sorry for her |
| Nice witch outfit nagato |

| Second Endless Eight episode gone! It's amusing how this second season (even though we're just three episodes in) is entertaining me way more than the first one. I always thought it would be the opposite. Regarding this arc, I believe it's too early to make assumptions of all sorts. Let's keep watching for now. Liking Koizumi a lot more than the first season, but he still was the best character of the show. PS: 5 minutes before the data moving.. see you all 8 hours from now, hopefully then I'll be still alive and Endless Eight free! |
| The Endless Eight continues... It's more of a deja vu mode. This episode is designed with over-exposed imagery and bright light. Some scenes from the part 1 of Endless Eight are changed, and this is the start wherein they realized that that they have been repeating the events of August 17-31 for 15,498 times. In short, for 594 years. :O I'm not skipping the Endless Eight, because I'm enjoyed watching it. I want to see the differences between each part of it. |
 |
| Oh god Yuki repeated this loop 15 498 times, no wonder she was so sad and lonely at the end |
 |
| This episode was alright but I know that the novelty of repeating events will wear off very soon to the point where watching will become a chore. That's what everyone who has watched it says. |
| [Watching in broadcast order] A redo of the last episode; Hot drinks during a HOT day ... not the way to go :D Thought someone else would win instead of Haruhi ... catching the cicada's. "Classified information ...." Stuck in a timeloop, interesting turn of events. HOLY MOLY ... 15.500 loops already, surprised Nagato hasnt mentioned it before or tried to fix it. Or ... maybe she has but it's failed that many times O.O Koizumi trying to ask Kyon to say "I love you" to Haruhi, was pretty cute. Also love how Kyon just gave up on homework, knew exactly what he was going to say, since he's in a loop, why bother :) Dont see the issue with "Endless Eight" ... I think it's very interesting already and definitely something that could happen with everything we've seen so far. |

| Big surprise. I thought I was seeing the last chapter, though it was something different and then I became aware me the truth. Things like that make this series great. -- Menuda sorpresa. Creía que estaba viendo el capítulo anterior, aunque era algo diferente y luego ya me percaté de la verdad. Cosas como estás hacen de esta serie una maravilla. |
| Hindsight is great. It's hilarious reading the older posts, knowing what the Endless Eight turned out to be. I'm looking forward to reading their reactions on the later episodes, and it's worth watching the whole arc just for that. |
 |
| honeslty they ran out of ideas IMO, endless 8 for 8 episodes omg. its kind of sad that 8 whole episodes are based off of this one thing or so i see in the episode list. they really couldn't make more stories? watching the same thing over and over i can only imagine got boring, especially for when these episodes just started airing. rip in peace haruhi and the gang |
| fam fam was here. aria and shana are great. make more anime or video games for them, amarite?? ^_^ |
| Chrono Infinite loop still continues... I am sick and tired already. Please someone end this misery! I respect Nagato though. 3/5 |
 |

| holy freakin poop stuck in a time loop time for them to re-group hope for no home runs just a bloop |
 Active Military, Prior Service and Veteran's Anime Club do not forget the sound of my voice until the day we reunite |
| Endless 8 number 6....more of the same, no breakthroughs. |
 |
| Time loop...SOOOO much time loop! |
 |
on 
| Animation was so gooood this episode. Koizumi saying "I love you" melts my soul, and I'm looking forward to hearing it six more times. :> |

| I don't how can people bear to watch this. |
Raizel said: I don't how can people bear to watch this. Weren't the episodes scattered during the broadcast? (with pther intrigues slipped between each of thealmost identical episodes) That could help. |
Rei366 said: I don't know man I'm confused af now I think I have watched like 7 episodes of the endless eight arc skipped two of them though I couldn't bear it anymore.Raizel said: I don't how can people bear to watch this.

| Well, second episode of Endless Eight gone and so far it's really entertaining. I'm very curious about why this arc is so hated, so I'll take my time to finish this. 15498 times? God, that's awful. |
 |
| Expected it to be exactly the same as last episode, but instead there were minor changes that are kind of fun to try and spot. I've only noticed the bikini (I think), Kyon's clothes as he lay on the sofa, and the ice cream flavour Haruhi was eating. 15,498 times? Even someone (something?) like Nagato would get bored and frustrated. No wonder she looked so down this episode. |

| 6th "Endless Eight" episode. Mikuru's yukata was a different color this time around, but other than that, it's mostly the same as the rest. |
 |
| So then for me this is the 6th episode of the Endless Eight Arc... and my goodness am I tired of it. It's a really neat story, but I just am tired of watching the same episode of anime over and over with a different coat of paint. |
 |
| [Chronological order] My god, at this point, I've just been skipping to the end to see if the MC stops Haruhi from leaving the restaurant. The different watch order differently has a different impact towards the audience. Can't imagine the broad cast order viewers being super confused. My brain has officially committed nonfunctioning. |

| The small changes continue to be fun to notice. I like how the visuals look for the festival every single time |
 |
| are you fucking kidding me. dont tell me this fucking repeatedly time loop goes on until episode 9 |
| [CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER] So they are stuck in an infinite time loop, and this is their 15,498th time experiencing the same thing, for Nagato to be precise. DAMN...... And now i'm getting the idea how those rest of episodes will be. |
 |
| damn, 15,xxx times? >< it's crazy lol. kyon shirtless is kinda creepy. and haruhi's swimsuit is hotter now lol |
| (Endless Eight Part 6) KYON, PHONE'S RINGING Maybe it's because I'm actually starting to feel a bit burnt out from these, but this one didn't seem to have anything really unique to it apart from the usual new animation. Perhaps it's a truly all-around skippable endless eight episode? At least I felt that way until the very end where Kyon notes that the deja vu of Haruhi leaving the restaurant is even stronger than before. Otherwise, not that there's any particular criteria to judge it by, but to me this was the weakest endless eight episode so far. And now time to take a break, I'll watch the final two tomorrow. Sheesh, can't believe I almost actually did it, and even enjoyed it to an extent. Now there's 2 more episodes of this left- or rather just one more, because SURELY the last episode will be something truly special, right?? |

| 15,498 times, which is 594 years H O L Y S H I T |
 |
| rewatch- chronological- ep17 endless eight 6 hmm, there isn't much to note about it's kind of important i think though that kyon have deja vu only on haruhi. in other words, he will never have deja vu on mikuru's call and the baseball. |
| I love the Sinnoh starters in the mask stand, but it also makes me feel old ;_; Overall this second part wasn't too bad or anything as we got a pretty cool explanation to how this time loop works. I didn't think they'd been through it that many times though 0_0 Glad I didn't immediately skip ahead, but we'll see how things go from here |
