Why bold 'dropped' ?
Doesn't make you look more pissed off or make us feel pity towards you because Kudokawa/KyoAni enjoys fucking around, etcetc.

Uh...there has been a lot of discussion about this and the conclusion is that KyoAni isn't the one to blame in this case, it's Kadokawa. Kadokawa had the brilliant idea of making this last for 6 or more episodes; KyoAni is just making what they were told, and in the best way they can. In fact, I'm grateful to them, because I can at least "see" something different each week.

I can imagine it must be really frustrating for them to redo completely this episode again and again...(because KyoAni isn't reusing footage)

I agree, If you were to watch episodes 3 or 4 you wouldn't miss anything important.

The only difference Episode 5 has from the others is that this one has something to do with clouds and a paper(?) airplane. Which makes me think what the conclusion of all this would be, They better make a good finish because I've waited to long just to see Kyon hug or maybe kiss Haruhi, I want them to get it on XD.

I'm downloading episode 4 nevertheless, I'll just skip through it though, and see what changes.

Sorry but that's not how fanboyism works. Everyone will still buy two copies of each DVD because it says "Haruhi" on them.
No really, if they were to release "Suzumiya Haruhi Cigarettes" one day, Japan's lung cancer rate would rise by 8000%.

Probably.

Possibly. So, yeah.

. . . . . . . . . you know now that i think about it. . . . . could this really be a ploy to kick all those "mindless haruhi fans" in the shins? i mean, i like suzumiya haruhi no yuutsu, but you have to admit it is just a tad overrated. (i can feel the flames burning already)

but on another note, FUCK! ANOTHER ENDLESS EIGHT? DO WE REALLY HAVE TO PUT UP WITH 8 OF THESE?

Somehow Kadokawa has managed to take the Troll King's crown away from mass troll producer Studio Pierrot (known for their epic Naruto filler and the "cake" filler ep from Bleach).

Kadokawa has managed to destroy my image of this anime that I've been waiting three years on with epic troll-age. It takes a lot of balls to pitch the idea that this very popular series should have the EXACT same plot, story, places as the last 5 episodes in a 14 episode series.

Nice plane sketch.

KyoAni/Kadokawa is successful yet again; just when people were getting their hopes up that it would be soon over, they get trolled again.
Will enjoy reading this topic and the future posts.

11/10 for successful troll.

Don't really care about the ep in itself, I wasn't expecting better, and I didn't waste my time since I just skimmed through it; complaining about it would be stupid. I'll be enjoying other things while waiting for EE to end; until then, hope to have more fun reading the future episodes' topics.

Well, you know everybody, there's a bright side to all this:

If Disappearance gets pushed to season 3, they can make it like 6 or 7 episodes long, then follow it up with like 3 episodes of Snow Mountain Syndrome, and at that point it'll be the best damned season of anything ever. Hell, for all I care, the other 4 episodes can be 4 more trips through the Endless Eight.

Am I the only one who finds this amusing? At least reading these angry comments is making up for the lack of fun in the episodes XD

It's part of the Haruhi charm that they do incredibly stupid things like this. I mean; they started the first season with a horribly made film that was only somewhat worth watching because of Kyon's sarcastic comments. What kind of way is that to start a season? And on top of that they scrambled up the order of the episodes. Then they waited three years with the second season just to make it fit with all the "three years ago" talk in the anime. Why are people so surprised that they couldn't resist trolling an arch named ENDLESS eight?

I'll keep watching this for the sake of seeing how far they'll pull this joke. And I'm sure they'll make up for it in one way or another. The writer might be crazy, but he's not a complete idiot ;D

Edit: And yes, I am a retarded fan that is too faithful to Haruhi for my own good OTL

endless eight is referring to the 2 weeks they have been repeating, from 18th August to 31st August. August is the 8th month of the year and since they are living only in August for about 600years, its the endless 8 (summer)

So, Haruhi wants to fly in a plane or what? <.<


It is kinda pissing me off, seeing he same stuff with a little change again and again. And putting the K-ON moe Design on Haruhi. Ewwwwww. When Haruhi hit her home-run, I was sure I was watching the wrong series...
An d then Kyon always going on about "IMA NEED TO FACKIN STOP HER" and then just dends up doing nothing.

Either way, seems like Kyon finally go some kind of hint - out of nowhere? - as to what Haruhi might want to do. Or did I miss those random images of an airplane being blended in in the previous episodes? <.<

Yeah, I had the same thoughts. I'd much rather them do Disappearance later and do it well.

Side Note: Technically, I think it would be counted as Season 2. The episodes out now are a 're-airing' of season 1 with 'added content'.
I guess they could try to pull off a "We never really canceled Season 2 at all! Here it is!" sort of thing and start airing the new season under the new name of "Disappearance". I certainly hope so. xD

I figure what she is missing is a Summer romance. If Kyon would just say 'i love you' or kiss her like what has been suggested every episode. She wouldn't feel like her 'typical' Summer hasn't been fufilled.
(p.s alonside the plane. Was a very brief flash of that beach romance movie where the female was substituted with an image of Haruhi)

I'm really wondering if I should bother writing this post, it seems fruitless as people keep ignoring me, but I guess I will try.

Point 1: THERE IS NO CONFIRMATION THAT THIS SEASON WILL ONLY BE 14 EPISODES LONG!

Point 2 was made above:
Powalen said:

I guess they could try to pull off a "We never really canceled Season 2 at all! Here it is!" sort of thing and start airing the new season under the new name of "Disappearance". I certainly hope so. xD


The way I read this: This is in Season One space, they called it Season One with extra content before Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody aired, if they finish Endless Eight next week they have space for the Sigh and all other eps from season 1 before the specific date in September (at least that's when people keep saying it is) when the Disappearance is set and they can kick off the REAL second season with that.

Point 3: says everything that I have said in previous posts but am to lazy to go over now. The only places where my view differs from this guy is in points 1 & 2:

http://blog.mistakesofyouth.com/ July 11th 2009 entry.

P.S. As pointed out many times before, KYOANI IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS! STOP BLAMING THEM AND REALISE THAT IT'S KADOKAWA! DAMMIT YOU'RE ANNOYING!

I find it funny whenever someones who says they "like" Haruhi say they are dropping the second season because of Endless Eight when they could just, you know, wait for Endless Eight to finish and pick it back up then.

Ah overreactions and copycats.

This is highly entertaining.

This reminds me a lot of when people hated Suzaku...

Hahaha this is crap, if I wanted to see the same episode over and over again I would have re watched it.

Thou I will as many have stated that they will - drop it. I will watch the next also, thou I will not like it. I will rate it like it deserves.


Another thing that comes to mind is that it feels like the ones doing the serie don't have the "next" episode ready, so they take 5 min of their time and change the coloring and Hocus Pocus they got a "new" episode.

No, he obviously meant that the technically 5 episodes we've seen so far are basically just 2, the second being repeated 3 times.

So until now, 40% of the second season were truly new.

Well now are you an idiot? If they were lazy they would have RE-USED THE SAME ANIMATION THROUGHOUT THE 5 EPISODES. Instead they worked hard to make this 'arc', um wait let me re-phrase, 'repetition' look a bit more interesting. If you want to blame anyone, blame Kadokawa, like this perfectly smart post below:
