The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya is a show produced by Kyoto Animation based on novels done by original creator Nagaru Tanigawa. The show features character design by Noizi Ito, of Shakugan No Shana fame. The show is slated for 14 episodes. In an unsual classroom introduction Suzumiya Haruhi announces she has no interest in normal humans. She seeks ESpers, Aliens, Time travelers and other oddities. The guy sitting in front of her is Kyon, before entering highschool he also had those kind of childish dreams so maybe because of this he tries to approach her to little success. Kyon starts to study her behavior for the next month such as her changing her hairstyle everyday, changing clothes in front of male and female classmates, and that she joins every club in school (but later quits). He starts bringing up these things to her in homeroom everyday and then eventually he sparks some enthusiasm into her somehow and she decides to start her own club and she demands Kyon's help. This is only the start of what later will be known as SOS-Dan "Sekai wo Ooini moriageruiame no Suzumiya haruhi no dan" (The Suzumiya Haruhi's club to make the world a much livelier place). links of interest official website - http://www.haruhi.tv/ Extensive resource on the show - http://www.designchronicle.com/memen...ya_haruhi.html Torrents for all the episodes released so far, subbed by a.f.k. fansubs - http://a.scarywater.net/afk/ novel translations - http://www.baka-tsuki.net/project/in...uzumiya_Haruhi Opening - http://youtube.com/watch?v=j3EHqjL2lWY Ending - http://youtube.com/watch?v=wsD8mGvwpkE

'am downloading it now. I'll edit to see whats up with this one.
EDIT : Im almost leading towards the end of the episode. It seems like your average chick that is living the life of working two jobs and being shown on camera while a narrator talks about her life and then moves on to another story. Not bad. I like it. edit : i love it now ;p. This camera guy is just filming as much as he can. his edits in the film sucks but its not like he's really trying. As a narrator, he's good. Overall. this anime can also be telling you that some animes are the same thing and making a film like this is boring (i dunno thats how i see it from my PoV). Now that everything is normal (widescreen). The story can begin now. I find this more interesting than Smash Hit.

Episode 2 came out a few days ago, surprisingly it was as good as the first one. It starts sometime before the first episode and the next few episodes will be the creation of the movie seen in the first ep. my one worry for this series is that Kyon and Haruhi falling for eachother (you know it'll happen eventually) will really hurt the flow of the show.

I really loved this anime after finding out the big twist at the end. I felt gypped before because the thumbnail previews of it looked really clear, but the resolution was less. Regardless, the purposefully bad acting was hilarious!
My favourite part was when Yuki starts choking Mikuru: "What are you doing?! That wasn't in the script!" I thought this would become ecchi with all the bouncing breast action of Mikuru, but the ending explained it all  I love the dance in the ending too! It's funny since you'd never catch a guy doing that real life. |

Interestingly, I found the ending credits hilarious to watch, so that's what caught me at first. The bunny suit takes the cake. ~kawaii desu~.

It was kind of hard to keep up with all the subtitles on screen at once. The main character likes to provide voice-over over dialogue, which would be cool if I knew Japanese and could listen and read at the same time.
But that's really my only complaint with this series. I watched the first three episodes last night and I'm already addicted as hell. Spoiler:

I think the best scene so far was when Haruhi wanted to acquire the computer: Spoiler:

Having watched episode 4, I have a question:
Spoiler:
Either way, this series is intriguing. I didn't find it as a laugh-out-loud style of funny as some other people have, but some of the stuff in there is amusing enough for me to keep watching. Also, dance ED = win.

OH lol! That would make much more sense! I was very confused and I actually had to open the third episode again to make sure I didn't miss anything after Yuki's revelation at the end. The most baffling part was: "How did you and Haruhi-san manage to escape that time?"
The baseball ep was all right, but there could have been more funny stuff in it too. I liked when Yuki was hitting and catching the ball so perfectly, but so lifelessly at the same time. I want more Mikuru abuse now  |
