Damn those subs came out FAST!

Justin Kim · 2009-05-21, 15:57

Is the second season already out? If so, where can I see it?

Team Rocket Elite · 2009-05-21, 15:58

Subs aren't out yet. Can't help you with raws here.

ThoHell · 2009-05-21, 16:03

subs out now.... I'm rather shocked that s2 is out already. Thought it was coming later sometime this summer. Anyways can't wait, time to get ep. 1 now!

Fenrir_valindri · 2009-05-21, 16:05

Wow, I haven't watched it yet, but I'm hyped up, can't wait to see it.

There are a bunch of fake subs. You sure it's real?

I just watched the raw.

Hoping that this is not just a extra and that new episodes will air chronologically, we should expect The Endless Eight in four weeks, after Mysterique Sign and Lone Island Syndrome (originally episodes 6-8). Afterwards follows The Sigh, which has to do with the filming of Mikuru's Adventures, then the festival episodes (originally episodes 1 & 11-12) to finally reached The Disappearance, which was advertised a couple of years ago.

The episode itself was a welcome surprise, but it has some issues. First the art took a hit as all of KyoAni's latest productions. Animation was also minimal, compared with the treat of the first season. Especially the character designs of Mikuru and to a lesser extend of Haruhi, seem influenced heavily by 4-coma styles. Also the VAs seemed to struggle at parts to get back to their original characterization, but this is expected since three years have elapsed. Plot-wise, the episode was loyal to the novel, at least as far as I can remember since it's been quite some time since I read it.

So when can we expect Haruhi to (At long last) be moved to the "New Series" section again?

I watched the RAW.. I'm glad I kept my expectations on a realistic level, that way I was able to enjoy this episode in its just measure

Certainly it is not up to the level of the series some years ago, but we are on the middle of the worst economic recession to hit the world in recent years, and Japan has seen some of the worst of it. Factoring in that, I'd say that relatively speaking this season is superior to the previous one

Ithekro · 2009-05-21, 17:32

The actors also have to switch out of Haruhi-chan mode, which they seem to have done for the most part.

Starry Dust · 2009-05-21, 17:33

Don't understand moonspeak so I can't say the new episode was amazing or anything. The animation looks nice but like what others mentioned, their latest style has crept onto Haruhi but I don't mind it too much.

The ED was mediorce.
Just kinda sad it sounds like the rest of the kawaii j-pop 12987831 ED songs out there with other anime. I'll probably warm up to it soon.

:]

Hao · 2009-05-21, 17:36

Seems hard to believe after waiting so long... Can't wait to watch this.

Anyhow, so it begins. Now having read the novels, its wasn't really fun was it was when I was watching the first season, but still, I felt that everything was just the way it was during the first season. Its too bad that I lost the 'omg' feeling I had during the first season. This episode really made me want to read the novels again.

Hearing Nagato's voice and seeing her eyes sparkle just made my day.

Yo dawg, I herd u liek Haruhi seasons, so I put a Haruhi season in a Haruhi season, so you can crap your pants while you crap your pants.

In other words, holy shit.
