omg that just clicked into me...so the episodes are set out but jumbled up into random orders...that means that in the release series this episode is episode 9 but in the storyline plot it is eps 14 which means we dnt get to see any more future events beyond wht we have seen now...hope it clears it up for some who still doesnt understand

Yep, You got it right..

LOL, I'm sure this statement is going to drive a lot of non-Haruhi-ists nuts.

If you watch them in Kyon's broadcasr order, then it isn't the last episode. But if you watch it in Haruhi's chronological order, then this IS storywise, the last episode for this first series.

It's just like watching Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith, but you KNOW that isn't the end of the story, even though Episode III was the sixth and last movie released 28 years after the first movie, Episode IV A New Hope...OK, I think I'll stop before I drive even the non-SW fans nuts as well.

I don't understand.. Why would it drive non-Haruhi-ists nuts..?
