| This is shit but I won't go into further detail. I won't give KyoAni the satisfaction of repeating the same pointless discussion just because they repeated the same pointless episode. Be different! So... how about we talk about the Casimir Effect instead? Do you think it can be used against global warming or will it only bring forth new kinds of weapons of mass destrcution? I think the most important thing to do right now is to prevent it from being discovered by North Korea. |
 |
| This summer is supposed to be set before a few of the episodes in the first season right? Because of the frog suit that Haruhi was allowed to keep was the one Asahina wore in the first season. So at least technically we know their endless summer ended. We just have to endure it until it does. lol |
| Wow, this Is pretty terrible |
     |
| Growing very weary of this shit. |
 |
| Getting so sick of this... I thought 1 repeated episode fine, but now I'm onto episode 5 and it's just so dull, even with the intervals between viewing eps. I didn't watch episode 5 properly, just skipped through looking for new bits of which I found very found. But I still think that counts as watched, since I've seen the ones before >.> |

| The direction and rythm of this 4th Endless Eight was by far the best of the arc, and the episode itself was really interesting, showing a slow but steady progression in the development and interaction of the characters. I understand how some people may be bored (huhu, remember that's the title and one of the main themes of the anime?) by it, but I'm personnally enjoying it. Oh and that's about the first time I really love KyoAni since Lucky Star (yeah, KyoAni IS extremely overrated) for pulling such a gigantic troll on its fans. That's the very essence of Haruhi and at the same time a fantastically disturbing, yet inventive idea. That people hate it reinforces my opinion and makes me love it even more. I'm waiting for the next (and probably final) episode of this arc. |

| will this ever end??????? it's not that i really mind, because we are seeing the episodes with a break of a weak between them, but what about the people who will watch it all together, like ina DVD or so? i sincerely pitty them. xD anyway this is a diferent ending, i wonder whats about the airplan... hum... Edit: ah! i just saw Valandis post, yeah i already asked myself if it won't be really 8 episodes... i thought about it last week, but then someone told me that it would be over thid week and i forget all about it... |
 |
| I consider this an exception where i skip the episode and mark it was "watched" |
| AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHArecursive I am entertained. Do go on. |

Byou said: Failing 15013 times is, well... a new record ? Also, todays Haruhi looked awfully like K-On. Have to agree on that.... But seriously, they better pull off some wicked nice shit in the end to save this series >_>' |
| ... Even if I took time to write alot of intelligent words of deep thought and meaning in my signature, would you really care to read and comment on it? ... |
| I believe the ep15 already showed the solution to the endless loop, and somehow Haruhi will decide to go on with the time. If so, ep16 would begin on September the 1st I think its a really complicated plot, dont know if i can explain it right: The end of ep15 shows the night of 31th of August, when Kyon refused to do his homework, again. What if the next episode shows that time goes on and its 1st of September, that means kyon is pretty deep in trouble and he has already done something to solve the endless loop during the time between loop 15499 and 15513. If so, then it would mean that time repeated again even after kyon had done what Haruhi wanted. (I didnt read the novel, dont really know what Haruhi wants.) Lets assume that it was the homework that kyon doesnt do with Haruhi together keep them in the loop. What if Kyon did invite Haruhi to help him with homework during loop 15500, it means time shoul have gone on, but it didnt, which would suggest Haruhi wants repeat the experience again? -_-’ The scenes where Haruhi is wispering something into Kyons ear and the small plane and Haruhi standing before the clouds are totally unrelated to whatsoever. Its my speculation that it was actually where the problem was solved (during one of the last loops)and these scenes are flashback from the the time when the endless loop broke.    |

[/spoilers] |
| I love it. |
| OMG I'm so sick of it.... And I'm too tired to play that "spot the differences" game now... It's not even a great story in the 1st place, and make it a 6 eps long arc???? WTF!??! 1/5 if there was a 0 I'd have voted for that -_- |
 |
| Crap. |
 |
| NOOOOOOOO... not again. Anyhow, I'll still keep watching, because regardless of how many times they repeat it, I still want to know how the problem will be solved. |
| lol, just...what I want to punch Kyon a little. DO SOMETHIN'. |

PsychFreak said: ^This is why I'm loving it. No.Personally,I watch Haruhi for the entertainment not for the "psychological" stuff.The Haruhi anime is well known for incorporating many different genres(one episode is mystery,another has sci-fi tones,another one is simply slice-of-life) but this is as out of place as a stupid gag in a dramatic moment.If I'll want an anime that messes wih my head I'll watch something destined for this.I don't know what they are thinking(Tamaki-san,that picture really is priceless :)) )but I find it unacceptable to feel bored watching an anime that's supposed to entertain me. |

| I understand what they are going for, but I really wish it would end. Endless summer is too much summer. I am getting frustrated, but I still enjoy the concept of the series. I just mostly feel bad for Yuki. I don't want to complain or endlessly bash the series about why it sucks just because its doing something I don't like. I still like the series for what it's worth, I'm just trying to make it to September 1st. However, I'm not really anticipating episode 6 now. I was extremely excited for this one, only for disappointment. I should have come here first, instead of coming here after for reactions. Unless episode 6 has some kind of development to the end of this mess, I probably will just skip it, or watch bits and pieces. Still like the series, but am a bit upset at it for the time being. It better do something hella nice for me next episode or I will be grumpy :/ |
| I've had enough... |
| OK, I get that this is supposed to be a 'Yeah, this is what it feels like for Yuki' theme running through Endles Eight...but this has gotten ridiculous. Literrally, the only thng that made this ep slightly better than lat week's, were the few seconds of new footage (and no, I don't count different kimono/mask designs as new footage) I've really stopped enjoying this series now. |
 |
| I came into the episode with the mentality of "YOU BETTER NOT FUCK ME AGAIN NIGGER/KyoAni" and I came back with "OH MY GOD KYOANI YOU GODDAMN NIGGER" astronomically epic fail sarahwest, you're not making sense, if they solved the problem in another loop this damn loopy crap would have ended already. Hell if Haruhi was satisified, why the heck would loopy loop crap of infinity be looping yet again. ED and the likes must be having epic lulz right about now. Sigh. KyoAni, Anime industry's #1 trolling expert!!! |
| I found this episode to be quite good, definitely the best of the Endless Eight arc (so far...haha!). Music was awesome and since I didn't read the novels, I'm really curious about the end of the loop now. (Though I don't like the animation becoming so K-On!-ish.) And honestly. Haha. I think the whole EE-thingy is effing hilarious. xDD All the rage and hating going on is just extraordinarily funny. Especially how people are practically begging for the whole thing to end...XD I was already lmao when the episode ended since I knew what would be going on here. I'd probably be hugely pissed if I had to pay for a DVD that's practically containing the same episodes, I grant you that. But apart from that...? XD I'm less bored now than I was during the last episode. Besides, who isn't talking about Haruhi S2 now? Be it mostly positive or negative (erm, okay, it's rather that, huh?), but the arc is already EPIC. =D |
| Goddamnit, another Endless Eight, I even skipped many part of this episode but i still couldn't know the ending of this. Probably this will over with 8 episode (which means 4 more) since the name is endless eight ? Damnit, Kyoani really trolled us |
 |
| Anyone ever think that maybe it's going to end at episode number 8 since its called Endless EIGHT? |
| you are my master. |
| No, I refuse to believe Endless Eight will be 8 episodes. That'd be ~57% of the entire season. ...though maybe that's why they air it bundled with season 1. With 28 episodes, it'd be only ~29%, making it seem much shorter than it actually is. KyoAni is evil. |

Rather than evil I would call them hilarious. |

| It's a pretty interesting concept, getting caught in an endless loop. I get it that the first episode is supposed to introduce us to the events, then the second is supposed to get us the feeling that something is wrong, but by the third episode, we're supposed to get a hint already... The plane? It wasn't a hint. At all. It seemed random, and it didn't change much of anything. If this doesn't end next episode, it's going to be such a ridiculous waste of time. I'm still a Haruhi fan, and I also think the responses are somewhat hilarious. But yeah. Limits, I have them. |
| Hm, I know it's supposed to be like this, but fuck, KyoAni.. I know every time the animation is slightly different, like different kimono's and swimsuits etc, but still, this makes the whole show just seem cheap. And suddenly the 2nd season of Haruhi doesn't seem that interesting anymore.. |
