I know quite well how to read in context. I was very careful to put those narration quotes in context - even going out of my way to point out how one came after the "pour hot tea on Kyon" command by Haruhi.

And how can you not take this narration seriously? His narration is almost constantly like this in Novel 2... his profuse complimenting narration over Mikuru being about the only break from it. A snarky comment every now and then can be a simple joke. Constant snark is a bit more than that, imo.

Look, you're free to like Kyon and interpret his snark differently. But I don't see where the way that I'm taking his narration is wrong. And, clearly, there are people who are fans of this series and don't like Kyon.

Myself? I see his good points... and his bad.
