Oh, I'm not saying he doesn't care about Yuki; that scene is his personal crowning moment of badass after all.

I'm just saying he really, really wanted Haruhi back. Not just his world, he wanted that too, obviously, but he really wanted Haruhi back.

Like I said, he almost enacted physical violence on Taniguchi. It takes a lot to drive Kyon into a state like that.

He missed her, deeply.

Yes, but I believe that, with Kyon, if you read between the lines, the simplest explanation you'll find is usually the correct one.

Personally, I can't enjoy a story if I do this. I have to be involved emotionally somehow.

Probably not a good thing in a series that relies strongly on pissing off its fanbase, but...
