This thread is for discussion of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, easily the best show of the season, if not the year!

They are best when they keep the same size Kino and Boogiepop have

I hate to break it to you, but the article history shows that both the flag icon and the above quoted passage have been in the article since 17 April (the date of the linked ANN article). In fact, the current revision of the article dates to 2 Aug. - the day before your post >>291, so it hasn't been updated.
It's not the end of the world to admit you missed something. We all do it from time to time.
>>300
See, case in point: I put sage in the name field by accident. We all miss things.
Even Andrew Cunningham admits to have mistranslated certain things
Maybe I was actually here instead:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Haruhi_Suzumiya_light_novels#The_Melancholy_of_Haruhi_Suzumiya
>>303
I suppose that's likely. Even here, the text at the article head notes that an English version will be forthcoming, but not who will be publishing it (though one could glean it from the footnote), and there is no flag icon in any of the info boxes (and that's important if you get linked to an anchor part-way down the page). Somebody was very lazy when they updated the article (nothing less from people maintaining a "list of" page).
<rant>I'm getting really sick of the proliferation of "list of" pages. It's just an excuse to not make the effort to write a proper article, and especially annoying when there's already an article for the subject in question. There's absolutely no reason why that information couldn't be merged into the other article on the light novels. In fact, it should be, but I can almost guarantee that a vote on the issue would keep the pages as they are. Once upon a time, there was supposed to be a policy (or at least a style guideline) against "list of" pages, but now there is a "list of Wikipedia policies and guidlines" page, FFS. Shit like this is why I stopped editing Wikipedia - it's a losing battle.</rant>
They will never let anime have episode articles while sitcoms does
>>305
Consistency is not exactly Wikipedia's strong point. Then again, I'm not sure that Wikipedia has a strong point.
Neither is citation unless they are willing to dedicate the source
Wikipedia's strong point is the price you have to pay to access it.
ni paa~
Their only merit is when they manage to be more reliable than imdb
Which turns back to the point that their relevance lacks any value
>>311
And yet so many people not only trust it, but depend on it.
Well it's at least as accurate as any other encyclopedia anyway.
The key thing is that if someone goes in and finds something which is wrong and doesn't fix it, then it's that person who sucks, not Wikipedia.

Yeah, I watched it in the fucked-up broadcast order first time, but after watching in chronological order I decided that the broadcast order made it much more interesting. Because otherwise the really interesting stuff all happens in the first half of the series.
Big question: Would Haruhi have been so popular if it had been broadcast in chronological order? (Although Haruhi is still an awesome character, whatever order:)
Haruhi may have been overrated no matter the order you watch those
>>315
"More people like X show" != "X show is overrated"
Show did not live up to potential nor praise thus became overrated
>>317 I dunno, I thought they did a reasonable job with the source material, except for leaving some holes in there (intentionally? maybe. Rhapsody does fit better alongside Disappearance...)
Love it.
Lent the dvds to a friend, he fell in love with the series, I don't think I'll be getting the dvds back anytime soon, lol.
He's been begging me to trade him the dvds as well as offering rides to school for next year to sweeten the deal. It's tempting but I don't know if I want to part with my Haruhi dvds. ^^;;;
You could part with them since the box set is less than $50 around
yay love this series
Haruhi-sama is mai waifu :3
Yuki Nagato is mai waifu as long she returns all her books on time
gimme summa dat Tsuruya-san, yum yum.
Mikuru would be more than the ideal person to end up Tsuruya raped
Tsuruya is the best. Kyon is a fool for not taking her up on that offer.
nyoro~n

next season ,April start
>>332
Or not. Re-runs of the first season in April, apparently. Here's hoping that they're doing so as a run-up to season two in the summer.
I live in hope
I have 1,357 picture of haruhi.
i hope the 2nd season comes out soon ^^ btw, where can i get the pics for the 2nd season?
Anyone else been watching haruhi-chan at: http://www.youtube.com/user/KADOKAWAanime?
Yea it's like not funny at all. Haruhi was alright but a joke compared to Raki Suta.
>>338
Aw shit, now you've done it. They're going to be at your door any minute now.
huh what and who
>>337
i have but the thing that sucks is kadokawa deletes an episode after like a week its up i get the deleted ones from http://www.anivide.com/index.html?cid=817 i think nagatos the best specialy in the spin offs becuz she reminds me of konata from lucky star
Endless Eight should finish up go and fall in a hole already. Damn, looping thing is drinving me insane. D:
>>343
Luckily for you, it has. But it's a good ending.
IT'S FINAL-FUCKING-LY DONE! Geez, sitting through 8 episodes of the same god damn thing over and over again sure was hell, but once that ending came it felt like a giant weight was lifted off your shoulders. We're free of the horrid Endless Eight arc! Hurray! Rejoice!
Also, it's awesome that I guessed right. I knew homework was the answer! Glad I didn't let any of the other subtle hints - like that aeroplane - deviate me from my originally correct assumption. Ego +1.
i,jpn, saw the Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya today.
i hope you can see this movie which is worth seeing sooner.
but i dont know when you see this movie in a future.
for your refference
