I second the spoiler tags. Also, more space between the paragraphs would be better.

Anyway, we've discussed Kyon's awareness of Haruhi's feelings toward him a few weeks ago. This is the link to my post on the topic, but to summarize:

Spoiler for Sighs II, Live Alive, novel 9:

I must say that I think that this thread has recently taken a bit too much of a Kyon x Haruhi shipping bent. The way I see it, we've got to take Kyon's failure to pursue Haruhi at face value (more so considering the spoiler above) and just say that she just annoys him too much. I'd say that so far in the story, Kyon would prefer a relationship with Asahina more than with any of the other girls—and the relationship would fail, on many grounds.

More generally, I think that Kyon and the three girls would have to develop and mature more for any of the pairings to work. We're not going to see any couples in this series until we see some more important character development happen.

This is the link to my post on the topic, but to summarize: Spoiler for Sighs II, Live Alive, novel 9: Kyon's narration shows well before novel 9 that he knows that Haruhi's got feelings for him, and that he's concerned about what she might do if she gets jealous over him. His denial of this to Koizumi is just obfuscating obliviousness. I must say that I think that this thread has recently taken a bit too much of a Kyon x Haruhi shipping bent.
