That was pretty funny. Nagato Yuki is such a cutie :3

And we also get this inevitable encounter:


Not sure how I like the character designs for this season but it had a good amount of humorous moments. Looking forward to more. Run Yuki run~

Minorin's shy Yuki-chan with lots of unrealistic wishes... it's definitely different from the Yuki we knew before. Regardless of being shy, she's in good term with Kyon. No OP.

Using Christmas as an opportunity to celebrate the club's existence. lol @ the argument between the friends of the two girls who "fights" for Kyon. And in the end became those two friends instead of the two girls. They became best friend from rival.

The feeling she developed to Kyon when in library.

LOVING ED!

Sorry, but I'm not going to be the one to post an animated GIF of Mikuru Asahina running through the
shopping district.

To get a sense of the level of interest of this series in Japan, here are the
"Amazon Stalker points" as of this minute. These are a measure of the
number of pre-orders that are being placed for the Blu-ray and DVD.

Volume 1 06/26 SEBRD 2371 REBRD 1493 SEDVD 289 REDVD 361
Volume 2 07/31 SEBRD 2345 REBRD 1625 ...
Volume 3 08/28 SEBRD 2709 REBRD 1874 ...
Volume 4 09/25 ...
Volume 5 10/30 ...
Volume 6 11/27 ...

SEBRD = special edition Blu-ray
REBRD = regular edition Blu-ray
SEDVD = special edition DVD
REDVD = regular edition DVD

The "..." means that I was too lazy to look up all of the numbers. Sorry.

Considering that all of these numbers reflect pre-orders placed by fans who have
not yet watched Episode 1, I am extremely impressed. Clearly, a lot of people in
Japan are very interested. I am curious to see how these numbers evolve over the
next week after fans have a chance to watch Episode 1 and decide whether or not
they are interested.

Don't worry about the fact that there appear to be more pre-orders for Volume 3
than for Volume 1. This is a normal artifact of the mathematical algorithm by
which "Amazon Stalker points" are estimated. Basically, it is very hard for them
to accurately forecast sales in late August based only on the pre-orders that
have been placed through Amazon over the past week. They only started to take
pre-orders on March 20th.

Here is the webpage in Japanese where you can access Amazon Stalker points:

And here is a very good explanation, in English, of how it works:

Righty-o. Just finished the episode and I have to say that it was an interesting one. Not sure how to feel about it at this point in time (as nothing really did happen, to be honest), though I did enjoy how they eased us back into the Disappearance/Haruhi universe with all the nods back to the original series like the humming of Hare Hare and the Shopping District activities. Despite the different artstyle, the characters are still the ones we know and love. Speaking of the artstyle, it's more flat and pastel than I thought it would be and it will take some time to get used to.

Maybe it's just me, but Yuki sounds just a tad different even from the Disappearance Yuki in the movie. Perhaps she's more vocal here, but maybe it's Minori Chihara taking time to get back in her role? Hm...

Considering the fact that Yuki's my favorite character from the original, I'm definitely looking forward to the next episode and whatever this series has in store.

I really like it. The animation is different which I don't mind too much. And as someone else said, I felt Nagato was a bit more talkative in this. Even more than the movie. Not that I'm complaining. It's always good to hear Nagato talk. And I really wanna see Haruhi and Itsuki now.
Also, a question. I watched this without Subs (Raw). Does anyone know roughly how long it takes for something like this to get some Subs? This is my 1st Anime series I'm watching right on release date
It's a nice experience (^_^)

Apparently Commie is doing the subs

As someone who's gotten pretty far in the manga, this did not disappoint me. It's different (from parent material), it's cute, and still entertaining. I wonder what episode are they gonna do that "title suddenly makes sense" arc.

i...haven't read te novels so i'm kinda confused.... so this is a world when kyon didnt travel to the past, where yuki is a normal girl? should i think this is the world that would had happended if kyon didnt fix thingss in the movie?

or... is the world of the dissaparence of haruhi before our original kyon a.k.a. jhon smith traveled btween worlds?

i'll just leave my random rant here

It was quite a decent episode. Indeed the exaggerated shyness of Nagato is quite funny (yet I'm still not used to), without even mentioning the devilish behavior of Asakura which is pure evil (She won't miss a single chance of "bullying" Kyon or Nagato). The competition between tsuruya and asakura (Mikuru and Nagato were also in but they were not the main) was a bit wtf but funny enough.

The settings of the story (up to my understanding) seems to be one year week after that Kyon decided to stay in the parallel world Nagato has built and they will hold a Christmas party at their school (I'm still wondering how ryouko made it to have the authorization ...) in order to celebrate the survival of the club and the fact that Kyon joined.

The setting is a normal world with no phenomenons, haruhi is just a stuck up girl with no universe altering powers.

So what is this?

Is this an alternate telling where Haruhi doesn't exist or isn't a bitch? Or is this one of those "troll stories" where Haruhi appears and screws everything up?

(There was a "We Hate Haruhi Because Her Voice Actress Isn't As Pure As We Thought She Would Be" Movement going on for a while. But I hated Haruhi because she was an overpowered bitch. So hey.)

If you've seen the movie, then you'll know what this is. It's a series based on the alternate world seen in the movie. Haruhi is here, she's just not "God" nor is she as important as she was in the main series. It's an anime adaptation of a manga under the same name done by Puyo, the artist for the Haruhi-chan series.

Well, hopefully Haruhi won't be a bitch (or atleast be defeatable). And Kyon won't be a freaking self-insert...

I just have to get used to KyotoAni not producing this anime but I think I can manage if they keep up the cute stuff. It does seem a little different from the manga version (which takes forever to wait for) so I guess thats something to look forward too.

This was more enjoyable than I thought it would be.

It was just pretty fun with Kyon being like that and seeing Nagato having all these emotions now, though still getting used to the character designs.

It's not a continuation diverted from Shoushitsu arc. This just borrows characters, and settings selectively from the original, then is made into a romcom.
