The General Character Discussion of Haruhi Suzumiya

[CrowKenobi]

The purpose of this thread is to provide a place to discuss things related to all the Suzumiya Haruhi series characters who are not fortunate enough to have a thread of their own. Go ahead and talk about how the Computer Club President gets taken advantage of, Imouto-san's antics, or how Ryoko Asakura just freaks people out.

To keep the discussion enjoyable for all Suzumiya Haruhi fans, please follow the guidelines below and stay on-topic!

Note: Please don't use this for the specifics (i.e. episode, chapter, game, etc. discussion) there are other threads for that stuff.

Kunikida is probably the nicest guy in school. Him and Taniguchi make a nice comedic relief duo.

[OkamiNoKaze]

This will easily become the Tsuruya page, more then anything probably, or Ryoko

[Heatth]

This image prooves Kunikida has less background then most random classmates:

Spoiler for Kunikida has no backgroud(image):

And that one proves he, and Taniguchi have less social life then most

Spoiler for T&T have no social life (image):

For the first image, both Taniguchi and Kunikida are basicly Haruhi and Kyon's old mate. Taniguchi at last knows something interesting. Kunikida not

Spoiler for novel 6 onward(real spoiler):

Though Kunikida knowledge of Kyon's middle school mates prooves to be useful latter.

.

For the second image, most have at last 2 or 3 friend. Two of then are even dating and four have unrequisited crushs. T&K, however, only have 2 friends each, and one of then is usualy busy doing weard things to hand up with then.

I aways find this two images mazing, btw, for the care of creating such unimportant characters. Also, the fact the do appear everyshot of Kyon's classroom makes everything better.

Hmm, those character sheets could come in handy for any fanfic writer who wants to have an OC on the go. Seriously, I could imagine myself using that for a fan-work (unrelated to my current fan project). That's really cool. And I finally can see what Sakanaka looks like.

Tsuruya has a thread:

That post was made before Tsuruya got her own thread.

True. As I said, most characters there have more background then even Taniguchi and Kunikida (poor guys).

Btw, there is a genderbend version of both images.

Hmm, so it was. I hadn't noticed this thread before, and with so few posts I assumed it was just created today. My bad.

That is why is good see the date of the posts. No one post here cause no one love the background characters.

But, hey, Mori and Arakawa are general characters too. I guess it is here we can discus the crack theorys about then. Like, the Sonou Mori is an ESPer theory.

[Ithekro]

Mori is not to be messed with, whatever she is.

[Kogetsu Shirogane]

... I don't really trust that Kimidori character... for someone who had exactly one scene, it seems she was given quite a bit of exposure by KyoAni... more than Mori, who at least had her appearance spread across two episodes... any thoughts on this?

She is cute. So Kyoani/Kadokawa used it to sell more merchandise.

Or, for a more interesting theory, Tanigawa told then she is going to have a important part in the plot and they (Kyoani) are foreshadowing it.

I suspect that she's another alien-human interface, like Nagato and Asakura. I think that she'll have a key role to play in the novel/anime at some point.

Spoiler for Novel 9:

Wasn't that confirmed in Novel 9?

[Tyabann]

Vol. 8, actually.

Yeah, she reappears in Vols. 8 and 9.

Hm? Wasn't it something given already? I never tought in the possiblility of her not being one after the Mystérique Sign.

Post Postum:
Even the lyrics of her Image Song seen to have a theme more fitting for an artificial interface: empty life and undesired emotions. Also the lines:

"違う次元では
女の子としていられたのかもね"

or

"In a different dimension,
I might have been able to live as a girl"

(from AnimeLyrics.com)

It is strange the word girl(onna no ko) here, unless she is not one, thus an alien interface.

This of course, if the Anime Lyrics can be trusted. (at last the quoted lines are not far from what I can pick with my ears and from my Rikaichan translation)

[Triple_R]

...And this is where I remind people that I haven't read all the novels yet.

Not in their entirety at least.

Spoiler for Novel 8 and/or 9:

Kind of neat that I totally guessed this correctly, though.

[Kogetsu Shirogane]

... Spoiler tags, people.
