Randomness... Koizumi yelled "Fumoffu" and "Second Raid" when he attacked.... That's more than a bit random... But an interesting episode nonetheless, Haruhi and Kyon are two of the best characters i've seen in a long time.

I don't know, but I think that "Fumoffu" and "Second Raid" are references to Full metal panic...

Yeah, this ep was virtually incomprehensible but fun all the same. Anyone want to explain the danger of the SOS Brigade emblem? How did that cause the closed space?

OK, ill give it a go of decipering this EP. Don't read if you don't want know ;)



Hope (I think) that clears this episodes meaning up.

Still, I was laughing my head off at Miruku hanging onto Kyon. His reaction 'I had no time to enjoy the sensation against my arm...' and 'Due to Asahina engaging me in lower body exercises...' I literally Rofl'ed. xD

Just watch them in the order intended, non-chronologically :) it's fourteen episodes, you'll be able to figure it out. In that case, this episode is about... well, what the first posters of this thread were talking about :P

What can I say... Merely before the episode started, I got the feeling that the island mystery episode isn't gonna get followed up by it's part 2. Yeah, that frustrated me a lot. But you know, this episode wasn't so bad, so I guess I'll be able to wait for... the next episode, I hope =\

Anyway, Koizumi's attack names sounded epic, so did they look :D

But seriously, I hope there is some point behind the order of these episodes...

LOL omg I laughed so hard at Kyon's magical pitches due to Yuki's incantations!!! Hilarious! The other team was just like, wtf is going on!?! Especially that one pitch that was too far left and then suddenly went to Yuki. I find it a little weird that they weren't trying hard enough (or didn't start rigging the game earlier on) until they realized how foul of a mood Haruhi was in because they were losing. They know that Haruhi can't be too bored or angry or whatever, so I don't understand how they didn't do much to try to win. That was the only slight problem I had with this baseball episode. At least I had a good laugh :)

You're watching the chronological order, the correct one! Remember the pony-tail thing from the last episode. it appeared again this episode, and the "method" used by Kyon to make Suzumiya happy last episode was mentioned in this episode as well. From now on, they should avoid making her bored, or it will be the "end of the world".

i have to say when she was going to put Miss Asahina's hair in a ponytail... then looked at Kyon.. and then scowled... i had to smile.

after all, even if she thinks it was a dream... he does find ponytails hot ;)

baseball's never been so much fun

"This is the time the teachers mark my exam answers wrong." I can totally understand Kyon.

And Kyon learned to knock (and Koizumi, too) and gets scolded (Koizumi does not..Haruhi really likes to pick on Kyon..). Let's see if he keeps up the knocking for Mikuru's sake..or drops it for his own sake.

2009 broadcast order (chronological for both seasons) ~ Episode: The Boredom of Haruhi Suzumiya

I really enjoyed this episode as well. :) Haruhi is so entertaining.
That match xD HHAHA.. Wonder if Haruhi will ever notice those
magical things going on around her all the time... Or she did
already..? I don't know. I will probably end up watching this
whole show once again in the release order... Or I should've
already done that in the first place?... Love it, though. ^____^

This episode wasn't meant to make much sense to anybody watching the series in the broadcast order, right?

Everything got so... weird. I thought the last episode was odd for an anime of this type, but this is downright quacky.

Camel cricket... smh

-Broadcast Order: Mistérique Sign-

Boooring. I usually love mindfucking stories, but this seems completely random. Actually a lot of Webster terms to say one simple concept, I guess, remembering Melancholy 3, but I have not the energy to dig 15 minutes of terms just to get the same concept all over. They're doing all that stuff just to avoid making Haruhi to get bored, but they're forgetting me.

Never touched the bottom like this, I was staring to the subs with a blank face, looking at those words that appeared so empty.
Kill me.

Love how Haruhi wanted to break in at first, then proceeds to ring :D
Gotta love Yuki's spells, the extreme speed of her casting it.

Kyon has some interesting thoughts at the end.

I found it hilarious, too! When he said "Fumoffu", I immediately thought of it as a reference, but I had some doubt. That doubt was gone when he said "Second Raid".

Episode 7:

Haruhi forces the others to play Baseball because she is bored :3

Because the team is losing and Kyon is taking it not seriously, Haruhi creates a closed space because of her bad mood :3
So the others must take it serious aswell to prevent Haruhi from changing the world :3

In the end the SOS Brigade wins over the other team by using somewhat what you would call divine intervention (or Alien in this case) :3
But they drop out since Haruhi must have had plenty of fun to fill her boredness and Kyon will pay which sits well for Haruhi :3

In the end Haruhi wants the SOS to play rugby or soccer next, here we go again! >w<
"No matter what painful things happens, even when it looks like you'll lose... when no one else in the world believes in you... when you don't even believe in yourself... I will believe in you!"
