Haruhi Suzumiya - Requests for new threads

[Heminga13]

Jumping to conclusions is what got us into this mess in the first place lol

Even if there are new episodes after the last of the original season one airs, those eps would fall under "season two" instead of "re-airing of season one".

I'm inclined to agree.

If there's another Haruhi cour coming out, I think that it probably should be judged separately from this renewal.

But then we're still back to my original argument that the "renewal" technically shouldn't be judged in isolation from the rest of the episodes being re-aired, since they are being pitched as a "package". But, in any case, we have at least a while longer to make a decision about this (because, as I said, the soonest you'd see a thread would be Thursday anyway).

As for Heminga13's proposal about re-naming... I think this makes sense, except that I would propose a slight change to be more like this...

Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu - Episode 1 Discussion / Poll [2006 Ep. 2]
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu - Episode 24 Discussion / Poll [2009 Ep. 14]
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu - Episode 25 Discussion / Poll [2006 Ep. 1 a.k.a. "00"]

...and so on. (Note that the ep. 25 is obviously a presumption on my part.)

The new season has sort of "re-constituted" the first season into this new chronology, and I think the main reason for doing something like this is to fit it into new seasons. And I agree that adding "Yuuutsu" would make sense, as there's a pretty decent chance that a future season might take on a different subtitle (and so we'd have to rename it all then anyway).

But here too, I agree that we should wait until after the whole re-airing is said and done. This would be in the spirit of doing some housecleaning in preparation for possible future seasons.

Wasn't a 3th cour pretty much impossible now(as there is already another show to take Haruhi's time slot)?

They still can, however, pull a weird surprise now. I have heard rumors bout a new episode00. About excluding episode00 and adding something else. And they may even change the end of Some Day in the Rain just to add something related to Disappearance.

I don't believe any of that possibilities. However, Kyoani did make some weird surprises before, so t wouldn't be totally unexpected.

Moving most posts from this week episode tread to the 2009 Re-Launch Thread would be a good idea. I also support changing the episodes tread title (tough 'The Melancholy of' would be better then 'no Yuuutsu'.

Updating the All about Suzumiya Haruhi (涼宮ハルヒ) would be great too. Specially adding something about the 2009 rerun.

[Heminga13]

Yeah, I guess there's no need to have (2009). Makes it shorter that way lol

And is it 'Yuuutsu' or 'Yuutsu'? I've seen both before.

[Kogetsu Shirogane]

Yuuutsu. And there's no real proof that they will change the title to reflect another story. Neither Disappearance nor Intrigues really overshadows the other, so if both are included, there's no reason to pick one over the other.

憂鬱（ゆううつ）. It would be 'Yuuutsu', however, it is somewhat common(for some reason) suppress a double vowel. So it becomes Yuutsu. It also could be Yuutsu with a '-' above the first 'u', similar to 'Yûutsu'(I don't know write it on the PC).

Unless, of course, they really make a Disappearance movie. Dissociation(分裂) or Astonishment(驚愕) would overshadow Intrigues(陰謀)

Well, I'm fine with waiting a few weeks until the renewal is over. Actually, in a way, I'd prefer that, as it would give us time to see how the E8 DVDs are selling. If they sell well, I may go easier on this renewal than I currently intend to.

I just think that this renewal should be judged separately from any hypothetical third cour. That's all.

[Heminga13]

Ah, so it's some Japanese wording stuff I don't understand lol.

And as far as changing the name for a new series, the fact that they've referred to it as the 'Haruhi Suzumiya' anime franchise indicates to me that the Haruhi Suzumiya name is big enough to be the name of the series as a whole. Individual series titles will be based off the Haruhi Suzumiya name (almost definitely using the 'The _____ of Haruhi Suzumiya' template like everything else) Otherwise they would simply call it the 'TMoHS' anime franchise. I don't have any proof offhand of them referring to it that way, but I'm pretty sure I mentioned it back in my early August speculation stuff.

[Ithekro]

A change to standardize the episode numbering and ordering to 2009 standards is in order I would think. Since the DVDs are more or less in this order now the only way people will find things in the "original 2006 (Kyon) order" would be older Youtube videos and the like.

Actually, you raise a point here. Somehow, the forum title is called "Suzumiya Haruhi" along with the episode titles, but all the other threads are "The ____ of Haruhi Suzumiya". Shouldn't we call the forum "Haruhi Suzumiya" for consistency? Not that it matters too much, because people will know what we mean either way, but it is sort of confusing to have these two different naming systems (but I guess it's no more confusing than the myriad episode numbering systems... nothing about this show is simple! )

[Heminga13]

Yeah, I don't mind using the Japanese title for threads related to discussion of the episodes/series. But using the English titles would be more consistent with the rest of the threads.

[Heatth]

Heh, I didn't even have noticied the episodes treads and this subforum are called 'Suzumiya Haruhi'. Just said it because the other treads.

Well, personaly, I prefer the japanese names. But don't really matter. The japanese name might be good because it is smaller.

[frubam]

Ummm, there is a Yuki spinoff called "Nagato Yuki-chan no Shōshitsu" and since it's being scanlated/translated(3 chaps so far) I was wondering if there was a thread of this spinoff or do i just post about it in the Haruhi manga thread(or some other thread I'm not seeing)? If not, could you make a thread for it?

[Kogetsu Shirogane]

Spinoff thread. It's being discussed there now.

Ah, i see how i missed that. The top of the pages i looked at were talking about something else. Thanks

[Heatth]

So, how about a "The Movie of Haruhi Suzumiya" thread?

[Heminga13]

So do we get to "redecorate" the forum now?

[Triple_R]

I'd like to request a "What Was Your Favorite Episode of 2009, and Why?" thread, citing only the 14 new 2009 episodes (probably title them BLR, E8 1, E8 2, etc.., E8 8, Sigh 1, Sigh 2, etc... , Sigh 5 to make this clear).

I think that this thread would nicely compliment the recently necromancied thread dealing with the 2006 Haruhi episodes.

It would also be interesting to see which episode people liked the best of the 14 new ones.

[Kogetsu Shirogane]

Hm... though I'm pretty sure almost everything will go to the last three episodes(and maybe E8 IV), I suppose it would be nice to see what people's favorites of 09 were.
