@Niles,

That’s true and ingenious. I just don’t know why they kept the lid on it. I mean there was hint but there was never a full announcement of when they would be broadcasting the new series. You think if they wanted hype they would have told us the first episode was coming out. Still it was really fun to see it and I have to give KyoAni a lot of credit for sticking to the original story. I also can say that they almost have to replay the whole thing in chronological order otherwise people would be confused. The last season was fine as was, but continuity becomes a bigger deal with the new content.

I like how when I began reading this post ‘Paradise Lost’ started up on my playlist.

Ditto. Although I kind of wanted Kadokawa to troll us again, soaring to unheard of heights of dickery with another pull-the-football-away move. Am I sick in the head?

I predict Kadokawa will make sure every new episode is packaged with old ones (current broadcast order would cover that), forcing people to buy the same material twice.

Jason, you have me trained so well– as soon as I saw the new Haruhi episode, I came running to your blog.

I was just about to ask what’s up with this “new Haruhi” episode I’ve heard about . . .

The month of Mio ends with the eternal summer of Haruhi.

Although this is totally unrelated to this post, I think Haruhi season 2 has just begun, there is rejoicing to be had.

More lesbian pocky scenes are always welcome.
