JValk Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 (edited) Check out the latest sub of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Episode 11. At the very end of the preview for Episode 12, Haruhi sneaks in a totally random "Listen to my song!" And Kyon, taken aback, goes "wha? BOMBER!" Mod edit: Yonk! Changing the title to fit the thread.

JB0 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Heh. I JUST finished watching that. Too bad the episode itself referenced that OTHER mech franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomake Wan Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Aws, I was gonna post a topic like this but didn't think it'd be right. XP I was totally floored. I had watched the episode itself like... five times... (I'm a geek, space battles rock) before realizing that I never watched the preview for the next episode. So I skip to the end and watch... and watch... and then I hear (watchin' the raw) Haruhi go, "Watashi no Uta wo KIKE!" followed by Kyon's "BOMBAAA!" Just... wow. I love you, Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu. Thank you for existing. Side Note: I'm glad that there is an HD Raw for it... 'cause when I watched the "normal" raw when the episode first came out, I honestly couldn't tell what the blurred sequence was. Kinda obvious now.

LinxCrossq Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 That part was awesome. M7 came at mind when I heard the "kike!" at the end but Kyon going "BOMBAAA!" was totally unexpected. Haruhi wins the interweb, I say!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB0 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Haruhi wins the interweb, intarweb, internet, intranet, extranet, and IRL. And Kyon sucks for talking Yuki out of wearing glasses. Even if it WAS an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomake Wan Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Kyon saying, "IKIMASU!" didn't give it away? XD;; Yeah, Yuki with glasses was cooler. On the other hand, glasses or not, she still pwns hard. These last two episodes have brought me around to the Nagato side. Simply amazing.

JELEINEN Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 The M7 reference totally came out of left field. I loved it. I also liked that the episode seemed to draw a lot from Legend of the Galactic Heroes;. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least there's people putting an effort into translating the print stories too. So there's a bit of extra stuff to look forward to.

Nomake Wan Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I'm pretty sure it's Kyoto Animation's "Kanon" project that's keeping Haruhi at 14... but considering the wild popularity of the series across both shores, perhaps they'll reconsider adding onto Haruhi once the Kanon project completes. We can only hope... >.< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfx Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Probably wanna change this thread into a general Haruhi Thread? I wanted to start one but didn't think there were alot of ppl watching it so i just kept posting in the Latest Current Anime thread. About episodes, Haruhi has like tonnes o volumes. Melancholy is just one of like....10 vols? I'm sure they'll make more since Japan seems to be invaded by Haruhi-ism. I liked the subtle scene during the island mansion episode 2, where they were wet and taking shelter in the cave. Haruhi was reluctant to remove her bra as compared to the 1st time Kyon met her, where she regarded guys as no less than potatoes, and was totally unshy about undressing in front of them. But here was a 2 sec scene that shows she has changed...at least in respect to Kyon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowerV2 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 It's a nice show. But the one thing that really annoyed me was how the episodes are being shown out of order. Why? I don't know. But I do know it makes it a pain to watch with the gaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugimon Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 hmm, I like the non-chronological order thing. They give you enough hints in the show to figure it out anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radd Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Ever since I started watching this show a few weeks ago, I've been hooked, It's my favourite anime since BLAME!. I'm only up to episode 4 or so now, but hopefully my life will calm down enough soon to let me catch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowerV2 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Now it makes sense. I tried watching it in the "correct order" and it was like watching Star Wars from Ep 1 to 6. So there's a reason why it's jumbled up. Something are not meamt to be found out till later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB0 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 It's a nice show. But the one thing that really annoyed me was how the episodes are being shown out of order. Why? I don't know. But I do know it makes it a pain to watch with the gaps. 408839[/snapback] It's because Haruhi is director. Seriously, it's because they want to close the series out with the ending of the Melancholy story arc. It gives them a story arc to sustain through the entire season and a big dramatic finish without signifigantly altering the original source material. On the down side, some episodes just don't make sense as-is. I think the baseball episode should've aired after episode 4, so all the major characters at least had their backgrounds established. Beyond that, it works. You generally have enough knowledge to know what's going on, though you'll be left scratching your head at a few references. Now it makes sense.

Something are not meamt to be found out till later. 408878[/snapback] Bah. Go read the translation of the first book, and then watch everything with full comprehension. It makes things more enjoyable, at least to me. I have to give the animators credit though... they pulled the Yuki fight off pretty well, and it's hard to vizualise, much less draw.

wolfx Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I'm not complaining about the out of sync episodes. Only complaint about the show i had so far was probably the episode where it felt almost filler-ish. It was winter and Kyon had to go get the heater. Yuki was left in the room with voices of the drama club or something practicing as background noise. That scene was PRETTY long. >_< Evangelion elevator scene anyone? Only thing that happened that episode was the Asahina sub-arc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some fun stuff(and me criticizing AFK for flagging the reflector a mirror*), but they spent almost half the episode just showing Yuki reading. I mean, I like Yuki as much as/far more than the next guy, but... that was a complete waste of time. Not even a good screenshot in the scene. *Can anyone figure out why Haruhi is using a reflector in that photo sequence anyways? They won points for including it and using it appropriately in the movie(Koizumi is seen using it to get sun onto Mikuru's face in the scene he's not supposed to be in), but I can't figure out why it's there in Rain. I suppose Haruhi might just be thinking "Pros use reflectors, so we need one too!" but they still used it RIGHT in the movie.
