I am currently watching Episode 14, the third episode of Endless Eight
I plan to skip to Episode 19 if there is nothing interesting happening during 15-18
But is it wise to do so?
Those who watched all Episodes of Endless Eight, do you recommend watching it? Or is it just some filler episodes that best to do is just to skip it?

No, it's not worth watching and it single handedly dropped this anime's average score by a whole point probably. Watch the first and last episode of Endless Eight and be done with it.

Watch it becuase it's a part of the series, but that's all. It's literally the same day just with slight differences. I didn't like it at all. If you want to watch it fast, here's the whole thing at once.

He exploited a glitch, don't bother trying to do it. You won't be able to for a long while probably.

the only thing relevant in the endless eight is the fact that nagato repeated 2 weeks about 15,000 times. the amounts to about 575 years of repetition of witch she remembers it all and can not do anything about. this drives her to develop feelings of frustration, anger, lonely, ext. these emotions are amplified and the results are shown in the disappearance of haruhi suzumia. it was needed to make the viewer experience what nagato was going through so you love and understand the movie in more depth. there was a reason for endless eight. you do not have to watch it all just understand the above.

Watched it all, mainly because I haven't heard about this show before. The only thing that disapointed me was the conclusion.

I really have to break it up to you, it's very very bad for me, cause the first Suzumiya media I came across is the film, yes, how bad is that, I watched the film first, didn't even start the anime, I was of course, quite confused during the film, after watching the anime, I finally understood many things.

I'm surprised you didn't get tired of it, you certainly watched all of it and didn't even thought about skipping it?

Just watched it earlier today. Endless Eight is a solidly good watch, even if it isn't fun. It does what it should do, and it's as important a part of the series as any other.

Skipping it would be a huge mistake, in my opinion.

dont watch it like i did, its was a terrible mistake, watch the episode 2 and skip to the 9(where the end change) i should serisouly have skipped this shitty part, cant even understand people saying its was the best part.... seriously its was a copy/paste except some word was changed with clothes on characters and sometime 15-20 sec change, nothing more...

Watch all of it. The experience was painful but fun at the same time. Just like what kyon has to experience all the time when he's with haruhi.

I think it's worth watching if you want to enjoy the Disappearance Of Haruhi Suzumiya more, because it definitely relates to the movie and by watching endless eight, you'll sort of understand what one of the characters did in the movie. And trust me, there is a reason why endless eight is important. But damn, the movie is one of the best anime movies ever.

You know... normally I would say NO. But if you plan to watch the disappearence of Haruhi Suzumiya, it just puts so much more weight in some parts of the movie that I would say YES.
You may almost die while watching it but just think of how Nagato felt watching this shit for 5.100 years

Almost nothing about Haruhi season 2 aka Haruhi (2009) is even remotely watchable, minus the first episode, the openings, the dub, and the animation.

The endless 8 is 8 episodes, 6 of which repeat the 2nd one to a T (minus a few inflections, clothing swaps, and angle changes) with the 2nd episode introducing the comically huge loop, and episode 8 breaking it in hilariously stupid fashion. The last ark (to me at least) is even worse, and downright badtardizing to some of the characters, ESPECIALLY Haruhi! Honestly, I can only tolerate the aesthetic values, and if this show really needs to bunjee jump its overall value via technical prowess, then that is nothing short of a testimate to its lack of quality. Judging based on characters, story, and any enjoyment, I'd give it a low 2, and honestly, the ONLY TRUE MERIT to watching this show, is knowing Yuuki Nagato's motivations for the events in the movie. Otherwise, you can skip this garbage. Honestly, thank god for the movie...

I say watch it, at the very least to say you watched it and to form your own opinion of it. You don't have to like it and that wasn't it's intention but it really should be watched to at least say that you have experienced it and can empathize with other's pain or excitement.

Watch the first episode and watch the last episode. Avoid the rest of the episodes. Perfect!

If you skip it and then mark season 2 as completed on your list, that's pretty gross.

I agree, but there's no real option to mark an anime "partly completed" so the completed mention seems more accurate than watching/ on-hold.

Just mark it as 8/14 completed, everyone will know which ones you skipped.

I also suggest watching the second, since they don't discover they're looping in the first.
