Aye, that was most of my issue (though I actually ended up somewhat liking the show (not memorable but enjoyable). I was thinking "show about a band starting up" and just assumed it would be something like the Monkees, with a song in every episode. That would make sense from a marketing perspective and may still happen in OVAs and follow-on CDs.

Most of the rage I witnessed seemed to be more "argh, this is taking energy from Haruhi!" or "what???? ANOTHER "girls doing cute stuff 4-koma?????".

Ah well.. this thread is just for people to mention anime they like they don't think anyone else likes. They don't have to defend their like of it or rage about others who didn't like it.
