19 minutes of wondering what Mikuru’s yakisoba cafe costume looks like.
At quick glance, this episode may look like an Yuki episode… but make no mistake about it, this episode is all about Haruhi and her megalomania. It was a nice and peaceful day for the SOS Brigade peons (with some uncomfortable Itsuki and Kyon closeness) until the computer society shows up and challenges them to a game that they just made, The Day of Sagittarius III, which seems like a Crest of the Stars-type of rip-off with Homeworld-ish gameplay. Damn, I was hoping for some h-visual novel that Haruhi and Mikuru need to act out. Kyon, of course, wants none of this and hopes that they go away before Haruhi shows up, and, lo and behold, Haruhi overhears what she wants to hear and qcf-k’s the computer club president.
“You must be some secret organization to interfere with my SOS Brigade. I won’t let you have your way! Shining light on darkness and vanquishing evil is our duty as warriors of justice!” Then she realizes that it’s just the computer club president and instantly starts looking down at him. Haruhi at her megalomaniac best. The computer club apparently wants their computer back, and they wager four laptops against that computer. In other words, something’s fishy. Of course, Haruhi is confident of her victory, despite the fact that the computer club has all the advantages, and offers to toss in Yuki or Mikuru to sweeten the pot since the computer club is a major sausagefest. Yep, treating people like objects… typical Haruhi megalomania. Kyon steps in and tries to lecture her a bit, “If you’re going to make a bet, why don’t you bet your own body?” Haruhi responds, “Whacca talkin’ about Willis?!? The SOS Brigade Chief is a holy and sacred symbol!” The computer club prez doesn’t help the situation by tossing in a, “No! Definitely not!” Now I’m expecting Haruhi to eviscerate him in a manner worthy of a 7th Expansion visual novel.
Kyon asks the SOS Brigade not to cheat this time around, and he and Itsuki have yet another uncomfortable talk. Itsuki does trap Kyon a bit by saying that there’s an “incredible bond of trust” between Kyon and Haruhi, and he seems jealous.
The SOS Brigade then begin training for this game, and things do not go well. Very predictably, Mikuru is useless. Yuki, while looking adorable here, seems surprisingly useless for a thought integration human data interface entity. Maybe the Windows XP is a turn-off for her. Haruhi, of course, isn’t a team player. Her megalomania requires her to charge in for all the glory, but it’s a losing strategy. She reminds me of Spaurh Aronn Saicspath Nimh Laitpanr Painaich, only Haruhi doesn’t know where the enemy supply ships are located. In fact, there are no supply ships in this game. Itsuki and Kyon seem competent, but they seem to be better as role players rather than the team saviors. It’s like if Dearka and Yzak had to stop Neo Genesis and shoot down Shinn’s Destiny at the end of GSD. In other words, pwned.
The game begins, and Haruhi is more amped than the rest of the SOS Brigade combined. It leads to yet another “Wait, did Kyon really say that?” moment as he goes, “What is this confidence made from? Share some with me, even 2 milligrams is okay.” And Haruhi opens her comm link, “Sou? Want me to inject a bit into you?” (Must resist urge to make some generic, “injection” joke…) And Haruhi’s megalomania continues with “I focused energy into my stare and beamed it to you. Your body should be all warm or going through accelerated perspiration.” (Must resist urge to make some generic, “Well, if you were nakkid, there would definitely be something accelerating” joke… must be highbrow about this…)
As for the game itself, the SOS Brigade is getting creamed. Kyon goes through the motions and points out the obvious: Haruhi and Mikuru are useless, and the enemy is better organized. Morale is low, so Haruhi breaks out a punishment game if people don’t get their morale up where the run around in the nude and run laps. Uh, Haruhi, I really hate to bring this up and look like a snitch, but don’t you think Mikuru was complaining a bit too much? Shouldn’t she be punished? Meanwhile, Yuki is once again securing their path to victory. Not only does she pull off some tricky manuever in game, she discovers that the computer club has been cheating. They had a battle.net style fog of war cheat! Those bastards. So she asks Kyon (not Haruhi) for permission to shut them down, he obliges, and they toss the computer club into chaos. With Yuki’s superior micromanagement skills, the SOS Brigade prevails.
(Yes, I was disappointed that Mikuru didn’t deliver the final blow with a, “Yes, let’s shoot it!” line, like what Tess kept mumbling in her sleep during Fumoffu.)
The computer club is vanquished, and Haruhi now has her sights to conquer the Host Club, Project D, the Kingdom of Tusukuru, Gualderobe, Orb, and the Abh Nation. After that, I’m guessing that she’ll take on the Killer Loli SOS Brigade, but casualties would be high. The computer club realizes the power of Yuki and want to “borrow” her services… and Haruhi still treats her like some object. “You can’t rent Yuki!” (How about Mikuru?) Kyon intervenes, and happy end for all, except for the computer club, who is now out one bitchin’ Athlon as well as four laptops.
The SOS Brigade Awesomeness Index
UP Tchaikovsky’s 4th symphony… I didn’t know the song, so I ripped the audio and e-mailed one of my friends who loves classical music more than I love melonpan. He replied back, “Cake, Tchaikovsky’s fourth symphony, fourth movement.” Here’s some public domain clips as well as a BBC online concert. That’s twice that AoMM has linked to the BBC.
UP Cocky Haruhi… a hybrid of megalomaniac and tsundere Haruhi. Her expression after qcf-king the computer club president was just priceless. Her staring at Kyon to transfer those two milligrams of Haruhi-cocaine was just priceless. And her movements and hand gestures as Command in Chief was just beyond haruhigastic. (I, of course, must applaud any captain of a vessel who dresses in a short skirt… even shorter than Tess’… Kyoto Animation knows its audience!) This episode is just a classic example of her “win at all costs” megalomania. Can you imagine having a boss or significant other with such a one-sided personality? I think that’s one reason why Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya is enjoyable for me… the pain megalomaniac Haruhi inflicts. Delightful. I wouldn’t wish it on myself, but I don’t mind seeing a bunch of anime characters squirm for Haruhi’s whims.
UP Out of Her Shell Yuki… I loved how she was the club member who paid most attention to the game and laptops. During the first half of the episode, she sneaks quite a few peaks at them. Still, even though Yuki was intrumental in victory, this episode was more about Haruhi than Yuki. Why do I say this? Haruhi is the one who dragged the club into the mess. Haruhi is the one dominates center stage. Haruhi is the one making decisions without knowing all the facts. (Sounds like our President…) Yuki, though, is the unsung hero who covers up for Haruhi’s mistakes. I count this as four times she has saved the day… baseball game, SOS logo, and Ryoko being the three others. All the other club members combined hasn’t saved the day as much as Yuki alone, and I think that says something. Yet, even though Yuki’s the savior, Haruhi turns the wheels.
UP The Real Chief Kyon… he contains Haruhi’s, uh, enthusiasm for charging into battle, he convinces Haruhi to offer her body as a prize, he stands up for Yuki, and he’s the one who approved Yuki’s plan of action. He’s the King. He’s even developing a bit of Haruhi’s megalomania… “I’m just admiring how I’ve gotten used to this room full of absurdities. It’s about time somebody praised me.”
UP Rational Itsuki… for his Haruhi trusts you to win; you trust her to not destroy the world if she loses talk with Kyon.
DOWN Captain Mikuru… even if she can’t command an interstellar fleet, she can always be a bridge bunny on my spaceship anyday. Now in addition to the frog outfit (which is in the clubroom in this episode), there’s this yakisoba cafe outfit that we have yet to see. *sigh* (Spoiler: LOL FANG-TAN works with her! W00t! I’m going to start a petition to make LOL FANG-TAN the next member of the SOS Brigade… she must have some secret… like she’s a vampire or something.) This next topic always comes up…
DOWN Episode skippage… I know, I know, I said I wouldn’t talk about this again. It’s like a scab that I just can’t stop picking. Problem is that episode skippage gave away the plot this time! Quoting from my post on episode 9, “how did they procure so many laptops? Did “ruined for marriage†come into play?” Great. Now I know they’re going to win, and worse it, Mikuru fanservice won’t be involved. Still, based on Itsuki’s and Kyon’s conversation, I was curious as to what would happen if Haruhi lost. I need to challenge her to a game of strip mahjong.
DOWN Wired networking… what? No 802.11n? And they call themselves a computer club?
DOWN Gun***… loved the “Ikimasu! Murie…” If only they borrowed Kira and Meyrin to say the lines. Yet, nowhere as awesome as a typical Keroro Gunso parody. Needs more Powered Haruhi!
DOWN SOS Space Force… needs better meme… couldn’t they name it SOSPACY or something less obvious? Plus triangles? Game needs better graphics. Haruhi put it best… “Feels like they were going for something cool but ended up with something that doesn’t make sense.” I feel the same way abou Mai Otome.
UP In game avatars… I like how everyone’s avatars fit them. Kyon’s blue, the mellower color. Haruhi is red and her movements… well… they harked back to WWII. Computer club president… utter Gundam freak. Mikuru is a fitting pink, and that tree from REC are her crew. I loved that. Yuki, of course, maybe a nod to her Evangelion predecessor, has clones of herself as her staff.
UP Full Metal Panic… the space sim reminded me of the Mithril vs Amalgam battle underground in China during TSR where Amalgam had the mole who reported all of Mithril’s coordinates to Gates who did a similar hit and run against the poor M9s. However, Tess (quiet, soft spoken, but pines for the male lead like Yuki) comes up with a plan that turned Amalgam’s plan against them. In the end, they surrounded poor Gates.
UP SOS Brigade franchising… when Haruhi mentioned that she wanted to open SOS Brigades in other high schools, the race begins… the first Genshiken club (no, I don’t count these college anime clubs unless they have some underaged loli from some h-game on a poster on their front door and have a reigning Guilty Gear XX Slash champion resident) on US soil or will the SOS Brigade beat them? And how much does Haruhi charge for a franchise fee?

That Computer Club president looks a LOT like Murata Azrael from SEED… although I wonder if the Chidori-style flying kick Haruhi delivers counts as another FMP reference?
This is definitely my favorite episode by far… The things I’d do to get flying-kicked by Haruhi…
“Uduyaaaaaa!!!”
I replayed that scene 6 times, and then watched it again in slow motion… 6 times.
I also loved that MoHS has finally made its first Gundam joke, though I was quite disappointed when Kyon denied the notion of launching the “Gun***”… I was looking quite forward to Haruhi getting frustrated with her fleet and then blaze off with her Za*u Custom.
Oh, and does Starship Captain Mikuru count as a new Mikuru fetish mode?
I liked the Macross 7 reference at the end of the ep 12 preview. Now that I thought about it a little, Haruhi is rather similar to Basara Nekki in a lot of ways.
So who’s going to sing in ep 12?
I think Starship Captain Mikuru should count, definitly.
And the next episode has Lol Fang-tan in the preview too. :)
The CSociety’s character design is actually a parody of a character from the series, ‘Yamato’. As is the bearded man on the CD-cover.
>>After that, I’m guessing that she’ll take on the Killer Loli SOS Brigade, but casualties would be high.
There you go again with your machetes and nails that are greater than the SOS Death Squadron, sigh. If anything the killer-loli brigade would crumble within hours, Mion, Shion, and Rena would have a mexican standoff over who gets to kill K1. Satoko is too busy bending over for further abuse and Rika would be bludgeoning herself while going mii. At least Haruhi-sama has a command structure and able henchmen.:P
I guess the computer club didn’t want to help them out more than they had to, besides they probabaly kept all that wireless gear to themselves.

The cost is simpy your pledge of loyalty under the same provisions as stated in the Treaty of Sagittarius III. Procurement of accompanying equipment is left to the aspiring members, they must conscript their own team and pursue aggressive negatiations for needed materials, after all imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Haruhi-sama loves flattery, if you exceed expectations she may even bless you with a transfer of energy.
Having a Gunso-esque parody may invite a sunrise hostile takeover, we don’t want the Otome scriptwriters (I am still looking for their addresses I have lots of sugar that needs to go into a scumbag’s gas tank…) to ruin the rest of this do you? Are your trying to scuttle the possiblity of a second season so soon?! Repent! :)
Kyon beoming more like Haruhi? Indeed. Haruhi-sama’s powers are beginning to have an effect turning Kyon into her ideal consort. As we can plainly see she wants to meet her equal not potatoes.
>>I’m going to start a petition to make LOL FANG-TAN the next member of the SOS Brigade… she must have some secret… like she’s a vampire or something.
Where do I sign?
Also since when was XP declared the best OS or the most user friendly anyways? For all we know the computer club could have installed Windows Me on those machines.
I agree Kaptain Mikuru qualifies as a moe mode. I also motion for the recognition of the Haruhi school of Northern Shaolin.
Mikuru in a get up with Fang-tan, c’mon time move faster.
-opta ardua pennis astra sequi
Does anyone know any of the current computer games whose gameplay is similar to the fictitious one played in this episode?
This episode sorta made me interested in trying one. :)
Graphics wise it probably be Homeworld 2, but the game play is more real time than triangles. The major difference is having a Z-axis and fighters. Other wise you still get to keep your fleet formations. There are some Japanese fleet simulators out there, but I haven’t found a place to get them in the US.
I love how character development is paced just right.

From information and comparisons on the AnimeSuki Forums, the game is a parody of three things.
1.Space Battleship Yamato
2.Legend of the Galactic Heroes
3.The Heroes Of Galaxy Wars Series
The second one is an actual game.
Cheers.
Haruhi’s Drop Kick, Yui’s goodness an science-fiction referenes thrown in. It is a lot to handle to me. More please!
Oops, I meant “Yuki’s goodness and science-fiction references” thrown in. in my previous post. Bad keyboard day. Sorry!
Haruhi’s Dropkick is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.
Also, major ups for the sound team to switch to the MIDI version of the grandiose music in the “game world” when they switched back to the “real world”.
1999-2000 had Onizuka’s German Suplex, 2005 (was it 2004?) had Eri’s Shining Wizard, now we have Haruhi’s Drop Kick.
The BGM for the game was the main theme for Shostakovich’s 7th symphony ‘ Leningrad ‘, 1st movement ( they also had the beginning of the movement in this episode as well ) which has very simple line that has been subtly used in many movies and games. I believe they probably used Leonard Bernstein’s Chicago Symphony recording for this episode, although I prefer the recording of composer’s friend Yevgeny Mravinsky’s Leningrad Philharmonic’s recording of the same piece.
Tchaikovsky’s 4th symphony finally found some overdue uses. Do check out the beginning of the 1st movement: As I have posted in another blog, the first 1 minute if the symphony is destined for grand use in many epics and sagas. Now if they can only get Tchaikovsky’s and Shostakovich’s 5th in some episodes, I will be utterly delirious. Hope they use Mravinsky version instead of misunderstood pomp and flair of Bernstein.
all the HD photo links do not seem to work…
>>Mikuru is a fitting pink, and that tree from REC are her crew.
I disagree here, it’s not a referrence of Nekoki, it’s actually a referrence of Nekoman (drawing by Aya Hirano, see the background of haruhi.tv).
& this particular one: http://derailedbydarry.com/ima.....1_full.jpg
is yet another referrence to Kinnikuman (search in wikipedia)
You will see what I mean after watching this:

As one of the (apparent) few who is enjoying the episode skippage, I really enjoyed the bit in the preview. “Next on episode 12…” “No! Next on episode 12… hey, you’re right!” (I’m predicting episodes K13 and K14 to be H5 and H6 respectively – only other possibility is to switch them, but that seems unlikely. K1 is clearly H11 at this point.)
And the head of the Computer Society was playing as Desslar/Desslock from Uchuu Senkan Yamato/Star Blazers. Classic anime ref ftw. (Dess-lock DesslockDesslock…)
>>> Kyon beoming more like Haruhi? Indeed. Haruhi-sama’s powers are beginning to have an effect turning Kyon into her ideal consort. As we can plainly see she wants to meet her equal not potatoes.
Or perhaps she wants a hearty, meat and potatos based stew, at this point.

You know… just like how Blizzard has their own Movie-Making department, I will not be surprised if KyoAni has their own Parody-Insertions department.
“Hey guys! Check out this script! How many parodies, homages, spoofs and super-obscure jokes can you fit into this scene?”
Man… I am beginning to associate SHaruhi more with Pani Poni Dash than NGE at this point. Nay, scratch that. I DO associate SHaruhi more with Pani Poni Dash than with NGE at this point.
:P
I’d like to know what Yuki is typing at the end of the ep, if she had a keyboard rather than a book…
For my fellow Yuki-fans,
100x100pixels
396x396pixels

Give the fanatics a few days to decode it… they have already more or less decoded what Asakura was chanting to Yuki in Ep10…
I mean… yeesh. They went through the trouble of slowing down the chant, then played it in reverse.
“Kyon-kun no koto suki nandesho? wakatterutte”
=”You like Kyon-kun, don’t you? I know.”
You know what KyoAni should have done? They should have done what GI:Joe did to fans who decoded Cobra’s spellchanting.
“If you are hearing this, you have too much time on your hands.”
;)
Re: Injection, Perspiration…
I think that was Haruhi’s clumsy way of flirting.
And Yuki rocks so hard, yes.
God, that was kickass. I hope they do a crazy Mai-Otome thing and do a series of just “Haruhi… in… Spaaaace!”
You keep knocking down the Haruhigasm for episode skippage! Do you also hate Pulp Fiction or Memento because they don’t go in chronological order?
Wow… Maido LOL Fang-Tan just went up 25 places in my books. I can hardly wait for the next episode.
>>>You keep knocking down the Haruhigasm for episode skippage! Do you also hate Pulp Fiction or Memento because they don’t go in chronological order?
Well, Pulp Fiction and Memento used it to obvious effect. Haruhi’s episode skippage seems to be leaning more towards ‘increased dvd sales from fans who want to rewatch it in the right order’
I thought Kyon’s comments were particularly good this episode, and I love the Yuki shots where she’s just looking straight forward and blinking.
Off topic, but when are you going to blog about the Mad Dog Meido in Black Lagoon?
Man, I am already counting down the episodes towards the end. I mean, Haruhi is just too cool, I just can bear the fact it is only 14 episodes. A good show that doesn’t get the 26 treatment…
And yes, Yuki is getting better by the minute…
So basically what is the main purpose of this anime?
I’ve watched 11 episodes but don quite follow up with it lolz. 14 Episode Onli? I thought 8 novel which would make it 24 episode?
>>> So basically what is the main purpose of this anime?
I say the purpose is to generate some laughs and occasional thoughtful discussion about anything. Of course, as long as those don’t get in the way of generating revenues for Kyoto Animations and TV broadcasters.
Just something concerning the episode count thing,
Is there 14 episodes plus the adventures of mikuru?
if one goes by haruhi’s counting it’s 14 plus one instead right?
>>> if one goes by haruhi’s counting it’s 14 plus one instead right?
…
Now, you just got me into thinking about it…
(hamster in wheel inside head running furiously).
thnk we still need 11, 12, 5, and 6 thats four and we just pased episode 11,or 15 (11+4), which means the rumor about 14 episodes is wrong???
OK, to clear up the confusion for people, here are the chronological episode numbers (AKA Haruhi order), listed in the order they are aired (AKA Kyon Order). Those in parentheses aren’t absolutely confirmed, but pretty darn safe bets at this point:
(11), 1, 2, 7, 3, 9, 8, 10, 14, 4, 13, 12, 5, 6
Oh, and just for good measure, if you are inclined to watch the series in chronological order down the road, this means you would watch them in the order of:
2, 3, 5, 10, 13, 14, 4, 7, 6, 8, 1, 12, 11, 9
As for what exactly the benefits of all the shuffling really are, I find myself appreciating 3 things about it when I manage to stop grumbling and play devil’s advocate.
1- Pacing. It’s pretty much established that chronologically, all the relatively serious and dramatic stuff is right up front. If it aired chronologically, we’d have an almost totally serious show for 6 episodes, which would then degenerate into wacky school hijinks that would probably come off upsetting. The alternative would be to totally frell with the storyline, making up new sources of wackiness and seriousness, and throwing out most of the source material, but that’s already Gonzo’s schtick.
2- No need for flashbacks. Any time an episode is going to make a reference to some minor detail you aren’t going to remember otherwise, they stick the episode it’s from in right before the one making the reference. Perfect example this week- Kyon stashing the Mikuru pics.
3- No boring forshadowing. We don’t sit through the all this build-up wondering if everyone really is a freak or if they’re just messing with Kyon’s head. We jump ahead to some examples of the sort of weirdness that can happen… and while we’re at it, we manage some… aftshadowing I suppose would be the word, about how groovy and climactic episode 6 or so is going to be.
All that said though, you could probably get much of the same effect by going ep 1, something later, ep 2, something later, ep 3, etc. instead of the total blender effect. I mean, eps K2 and 3 (or H1 and 2) are the only consecutive episodes so far.

Nice points Googleshng. There have been some almost-consecutive sets (K3/H2 and K5/H3, K6/H9 and K8/H10) as well as a few sequences where we’ve gone backwards (K6/H9 and K7/H8, K11/H13 and K12/H12). It’s their way of creating suspense and excitement. Either that or they just enjoy messing with our heads. (Probably both actually.)
Did Haruhi herself just post in post #37?
Great episode. I loved the Yuki mouse scene and how she just totally pwned everyone else. The episode skippage ceased bothering me a long long time ago.
I think there’s something to be said about the incredible pacing KyoAni has Haruhi on. Every episode is just perfect. You don’t get bored to death like an early F/SN episode and you never feel shafted by the story not moving enough like a Bleach episode.
Was that a Gundam that they censored back there?
>> Did Haruhi herself just post in post #37?
If that then Haruhi has finally taken Kyon’s words: go blogging & be a comment whore…
(･∀･)＜Good morning☆
I bought a book that Japanese version limitation Haruhi’s Set material collection.
As far as I can make out #37, it’s “The Melancholy of Haruhi is amusing, isn’t it? I haven’t seen the beginning (first story?) yet, but I bought the manga today. I’ll be reading that next – fun!” (Thank goodness for wwwjdic.)

Since she wasn’t abusing Mikuru through the whole episode, I really enjoyed Haruhi’s megalomania. She’s really cute when executing flying drop-kicks and then putting down her enemies. How it would play out was obvious from the moment the club president said they wrote the software, but it was still a fun ride. Kudos to Kyo once again– the music selection was inspired!
I find it sad that the anime will end soon..
…season 2?
My future sense is tingling. It tells me that season two will be hyped out of all proportion and be a huge disappointment. They will butcher the canon. There will be unncessary angst. The ‘original content’ will have plot holes the size of hallways. It will be painful to watch.
Yet you will all watch it, again and again, because you are fans of the original series. And you will let it ruin what precious memories you have.
Ueheheh.
