Okay. Time for some justification.

I gave it a 9 out of 10. Started and finished it recently. It's one of the greatest anime I have ever watched but those damn Endless Eight episodes were the only thing stopping me from giving it a 10.
Can't wait to see the movie. |

The real shame about E8 is that there really are a lot of subtleties with Yuki that make it worth watching, like her looking progressively more bored, or her inconsistent counts of the different activities from episode to episode. However, a lot of people just don't have the patience to marathon that sort of thing (like me), and I think the animation studio could've accomplished the same thing in four episodes. Perhaps show the original loop, then loop 5000, then loop 10000, then the last one.
From what I understand, though, they almost had to have made it like that; there was nothing else that occurred before Disappearance chronologically. Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody and E8 were necessary to set up the movie, and Sigh...well, it might as well be thrown in for the sake of completeness. I think my biggest problem with the Sigh arc is that nothing really HAPPENS. We see the couple of weird things in Episode 00 get resolved (Yuki tackling Mikuru, Shamisen talking, etc.), but besides that, the most emotion I can muster is, "Eh...so what?" Episode 00 already conveyed "a bunch of clueless high schoolers make a movie and suck at it," and it just seems redundant to show the actual sucking.

The posts after the previous one I moved to the general discussion thread since the interesting discussion started to move away from talking about the impressions of the entire anime series to date.

Oh... the second series. <_< Endless Eight was really boring. I got so bored of it I watched the first... 2? Or three, and then I just skipped to the end. Really bad choice. But I <3 the series otherwise. Unlike some of the other animes about school life, it has character development (even personality development), has a quick and interesting plot, interesting characters (especially Haruhi and... well, I like Itsuki. ), and a blend of so many other genres. And Haruhi has a personality really close to mine--which I'm not sure is a good thing. xD And it has science, which is one of my favourite subjects.
As such... 1st series: 10/10 2nd series: 6/10 (or 8.5-9/10 without Endless Eight) Characters: 10/10 Plot: 9.5-10/10 Development: 10/10 Haruhi: Priceless.

I loved the show no matter the order but WTH was up with the endless 8 part of the series..... it seemed to me a total waste of an episode since it could of been summed up in two episodes or maybe three but eight....... that was the only thing that made me mad about the series.

I've heard alot about this show, mainly that it was the "Harry Potter" of the anime world. People I talked to are split, saying they either love it or hate it. I must say that after watching it I fairly enjoyed it. It's much better that the shows they have here in America today. I thought it was excellent concidering I just started recently watching the anime medium.

I love this series so much. I love Haruhi, the character, so much. (Despite the many people who despise her) And, with that being said, I gave it an 8! You know, 8, as in... Aha, no! I ranked it an 8 because the Endless 8. Otherwise, it would have gotten a 9, or possibly a 10. The best part about this anime is, while I don't generally find most of the characters interesting, Haruhi is so fun, she more than makes up for it.
Hmm, I'll say this Without Endless eight - 9 Without Endless eight and in chronological order - 10 If only... |
