Best anime movie of 2010.

You might want to watch Rebuild of Evangelion 2.22 before making that claim.


I have to say, I tend to agree that The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya ranks above Evangelion 2.22. The artwork of both movies was amazing, but the story is what makes the difference for me. At least in my opinion.

As far as the movie goes, it was absolutely stunning. Especially in HD ;D Alternative versions of Haruhi and Yuki were rather enjoyable as well.

I believe that this movie was one of the greatest I've ever seen so far.

@Meddigo, I'll give Evangelion a shot, but no guarantees that in my view that it will be better than Haruhi.
Meddigo said:

One day I will read a comment like this from someone who didn't give the second season of Haruhi a 9 or a 10.
Well you didn't have to wait long, I rated it a 6. (just because of the crappy endless eight)

It just hit me that even though I've posted a lot in this discussion, I never expressed my opinion about this movie. Well, here's what I wrote the first time I expressed myself: "I went directly to Mazui's site and grabbed it in the middle of the night after over 9000 F5s.

Then I watched it for the fifth time

and I died all over again

because of my inability to cope with the overwhelmingly awe-inspiring details, events, music and everything in this movie. My jaw fell off. My eyes popped out. I was temporarily unable to express in words. My legs and arms were numb. My tears didn't stop.

Am I overreacting? Does it look like I'm overreacting?

Maybe xD My body will never be ready for this movie. Do I even need to say it's the best movie I've ever watched?"


That didn't really go into detail as to why it is so incredibly magnificent, but there's enough of that in the reviews.

Not true. I've been hyped for a couple of thing and they lived up to it, the problem is that if it don't live up to your hype, it won't just be "a good/mediocre/bad" movie, it will be the worst piece of shit ever.

wth you're pretty much overreacting IMO :P

Anyway, just watched it, pretty long sit but it's worth it. Alternative Yuki was pretty awesome and I was secretly hoping for some love development but of course this wouldn't happen..

well... a good show, but not GREAT...
I don't understand why this movie get such a high score (9,16...)
this show is overrated...
very boring at first (kyon monologue) ---> interesting (kyon search haruhi desperately) ----> average (kyon back to the past) -----> dissapointing
all that trouble just because 1 little girl with glasses is tired...

solid movie... a solid 7/10

The movie makes up for the shitiness of the Haruhi Franchise.
The psychology scene is amazingly awsome.
But jesus, Asakura is one crazy bitch, but where did she come from?
Anyhow, it reminds me of School Days =D

First of all, why are we talking about other anime in a Haruhi Movie Discussion thread? Is not even related to this movie.

PLOT TWIST, the last 40 minute was like WOW! Asakura came out of no where with dagger and stab Kyon and then Kyon watch Kyon dying. In that very moment 3 Kyons + Mikurus were in existence.

I'm surprised that everyone liked it. I can see from the comments that the surprise factor is a very important thing in the movie. I guess I didnt like it that much because I already read the novel and had a vague recollection of the events in the movie. I suppose it was an interesting movie overall.

Let's see, December 18 4 am:

1 Kyon got stabbed - Older Mikuru from the future was with him
1 Kyon came from the future - Along with Future Mikuru and Future Yuki was with him
1 Kyon is sleeping - Present Mikuru was sleeping and the present Yuki was reborn

Technically, there are 3 Kyons, 3 Mikurus and 2 Yukis at that time

Assuming that the 1st Kyon really died from that stab. There's still a reason why the future Kyon still exists. There is another Kyon sleeping. So I was thinking that his death was inevitable but wouldn't really abide the law of time paradox... just my crazy thought, you guys can criticize with this xDD

Finally got around to watching it since I was afraid of giving it a 10.
Lucky for me, it wasn't the masterpiece that other people tried to push on me.
I'm well aware how the Haruhi franchise works in the anime and although it was either touching, dramatic, or suspenseful, it lacked something that I am unable to convey to you because you wouldn't understand. That makes everything I said pretty much worthless.

I loved seeing Asakura again though. Getting stabbed by a girl seems to now be my fantasy.

Actually, there are 4 Kyons (lol). The 3 years younger Kyon who has no idea of what is going on, the Kyon that comes with Asahina and helps Haruhi with drawing whatever it was, the Kyon that gets stabbed, and the Kyon that saves the stabbed Kyon.

Oh, the movie? An easy 10. Though, only because of this:

This had me cracking up for so long that I had to stop the movie. It is just so Kyon (hey, I made up an adjective!) that you can't help it.

That was pure gold!


Well, really...
I'm overwhelmed.
Words cannot explain how amazing the movie was.
I'm not even that huge a fan of the whole thing.
Mostly because I don't really like Haruhi, but this movie might have changed my mind.
She was tolerant and kinda sweet here.
Still not near as sweet as either Kyon, Yuki or Koizumi.
Everything about it was just enjoyable and I will say, without shame, that I shed a few tears near the ending.
Ok, alot of tears, actually.
I blame Yuki for that.
Well, and the soundtrack, very haunting.

But now, I'm not sure who I ship anymore. Pfft.
I was a Kyon/Koizumi fangirl, cuz it's fun.
But now, dammit..
I really like Kyon/Yuki(that scene on the roof, gosh..) , but the Haruhi/Kyon scene in the hospital was so sweet as well.
Bleh, not important.

10/10 from me! <3

love is such a strange thing

I had high expectations with both the series + movie and they both delivered.
Still a little confused with the storyline, but overall it was far better than what I had expected.
The ending was a nice touch and it didn't leave me on a cliff hanger.
I have to say it was time well spent.
Can't really think of how this movie could improve.

I don't even have to think about this one.
10/10 No more, no less.
Perfect.

I was surprised when I saw that it would run for almost 3 hours, but it was the best 3 hours of this week in retrospect. It had everything I like about the Haruhi series and fiction in general. And Yuki...I'm speechless. 10/10 from me.

Edit: I also like how they conveyed the feeling of emptiness after the SOS Brigade is gone. It's one thing to express what the character iis going through, and another to make the viewer feel the pang of loss as well. Nicely done.

I never really got into the whole Nagato Yuki craze, but this movie has made me a complete and total Nagato fan. She was just so cute throughout the entire film. I love the new shy Nagato.

long but entertaining throughout. slightly confusing after the stabbing. the "other world" Nagata was much nicer. very cute. also the long haired Haruhi was nice to see again. I can't say in that situation I would have done the same thing. good movie though, better than any of the first 2 seasons.

Definitely makes up for Endless Eight. Kyon has a hell of a memory, being able to remember those exact lines after hearing them once and also while bleeding his guts out. Does anyone remember if Kyon and adult Asahina's shoes were shown in Nagato's apartment in the anime? If they did show that detail, that's very impressive. Also ponytail ftw
