2026 is the 20th anniversary of the first Haruhi anime. Could there be an event or announcement to celebrate the anniversary?
>>
Fuck off nigger

Watch it be nothing and they don't even celebrate it

The industry is so retarded for abandoning such an ip like this
Yet they give multiple seasons to the most generic anime
Priorities are messed up

Apparently there's a DS game that's now in english, if you need a haruhi fix.

I wish it was so it would get more anime

>>284966208
It got 2 seasons, movies, and a spinoff. Way more content than most get. Blame them for wasting most of the episodes on the exact same episode with a 1 frame difference so people could pretend like it was smart
>>
>>284964602
Excellent news

Are you retarded? They reanimated everything from scratch and these episodes all feel quite different in atmosphere and scenery.

This is what I mean. You could have gotten actual new content but instead the fanbase will pretend like they really like how a season got wasted on rereleasing what they already watched
>>
>>284966859
The season is good by itself. Even if you were to think in terms of "we could've had 6 more episodes", that wouldn't really work that well since these episodes would have to take place after the movie and require different direction and spoil the story. Truth is, "season 2" as a 14 episodes season doesn't really make sense as a project due.
>>
>>284966913
NTA but Endless Eight is a massive missed opportunity and a complete waste of resources. Even if we accept the idea that anything beyond the movie on the timeline was off-limits, and that new anime-only episodes are also off the table (remember that season 1 already had one of those), they could have actually animated unique Endless Eight scenarios instead of just mindlessly repeating the same one over and over again. We are expressly told that there are variations in the loop like a few times when there was no festival and the part-time job having lots of different variations, but we never get to see any of that, it's always the same fucking shit. It's not lazy from animation perspective, but it is supremely lazy and uncreative from a writing perspective.

It had one, Someday in the Rain, which was written by Tanigawa and perfectly fit the Disappearance setup

>they could have actually animated unique Endless Eight scenarios instead of just mindlessly repeating the same one over and over again
They could have, but I fundamentally disagree with the idea what they did was "mindless". Each episode is interesting in its own way. I don't disagree with the idea that it could also have been interesting to do it completely differently though.

I guess we're somewhat on the same page given what you wrote at the end of your post, but what I mean by that is that it's not just some kind of "high effort animation performance" they nailed, it also takes creativity to craft what they did. A different, less flashy kind, but it deserves to be appreciated too.
>>
Endless Eight is only a waste in retrospective considering the anime stopped production stopped after the film.
But there's nothing wrong with it if you separate it from that and look it as a 1 thing
>>

My hacked 3DS finally serves a purpose. I've been waiting for this to finish being translated.
>>
>>284971796
It's all digitally colored, but maybe the bluray has some issues. Some parts look a little fuzzy here and there. And I think they used some kind of DNR.
>>
Do you honestly believe that Tanigawa will write another volume now that ran out of unserialised stories?
>>
>>284972513
Yeah
>>
>>284972513
The new stuff he wrote was longer than the old material.
>>
Didn't they say there'd be a special Feb screen of disappearance? Maybe there'll be a teaser after that?
>>
>>284972664
I still think the last volume was him basically tying up the remaining loose ends.

>>284972750
There's still that object that Tsuruya is keeping, which is mentioned at the end of Intuition.

A reminder that there's enough light novel material for TWO more seasons (of 14 episodes).

Hasn't Haruhi's VA aged out of the industry at this point?

No. The things the SOS Brigade does in the series can only happen because they don't have to work

At least it would be realistic.
