The Fan-Fixing of Haruhi Suzumiya!

OK folks, here we are, suffering (or some few still enjoying, hehehe) Endless Eight, aka The Boredom of Yuki Nagato... I'd just like to offer a few thoughts on how, uh, "fixable" this situation is...

Suppose in some dream-world we fans had unlimited animation talent (and time ), then heck, anything is fixable, we just re-animate the whole damn thing according to taste! But we don't - so...

I'm defining fan-fixing as taking the existing footage - maybe chopped up and time-shifted if desired, since that's easy enough - and re-dubbing/subbing the minimum amount required to achieve some change.

Good fan-fixing could be a new minor art-form: can a few minutes', even a few seconds', worth of change achieve a gigantic improvement to the whole way an arc goes? - and even to the way it fits into a whole series?

Well, I have some thoughts specifically about fan-fixing E8, but I'll put them in my next post, to keep this one as just "launching the concept"...

Next post to follow, internet connection permitting!
