My main question is what's up with Tsuruya eavesdropping on Kyon and Mikuru in Part 5?

A note: Light novels rather than manga.

She is probably waiting for Mikuru to be done as they are in the same class and friends. They tend to hang out together when Mikuru isn't with Haruhi's group.

My second question is was Koizumi joking when he was talking about Mikuru being there to win Kyon over to their side? When Kyon called his bluff, Koizumi looked annoyed and then finally went back to his usual self and said he was joking. The more I go into his character the more he seems like his whole personality is an act. He really confuses me. Is this explained in the manga?

Who can tell with Isuki? Since the story is almost always from Kyon's point of view, we may never know.

Thirdly, who added the special effects into the movie the day before the festival? Did it have anything to do with those guys who wore armor and were running through the corridor? On that note, who were they? No one seemed to know who they were.

Unknown. (unless it was from one of the computer games that answer that one). As far as the novels go, that one is still a mystery.

Fourthly, is Mikuru's perspective on Haruhi not proven wrong at the end of the Sigh of Haruhi Suzumiya? Only once Haruhi was convinced into saying everything was fake did everything go back to normal. The most obvious one being the fact that the cat could no longer speak. If Haruhi could only find abnormalities in the world then how would her perspective determine how the world worked? Koizumi's perspective still makes more sense to me even though it is completely nuts.

Haruhi is still up for interpritation. We have long threads about theories and counter theories about what Haruhi is or is not.

Fifthly, in the Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumia, who was the chick who apparently pushed Kyon down the stairs? Is this ever explained in the mangas?

Answered in a future story.

Spoiler for Light Novel 7:

A future Yuki following orders from Kyon...more or less. If I remember it correctly. Though if I remember it correctly, there are two Yuki's hanging around for a about two weeks. The present one that altered time-space and a future one that stays until her present self goes back in time to become her.

Lastly, what were the files Yuki was hiding when Kyon asked if he could use the computer in the literature club? As far as I know, this is never explained.

I don't recall. Probably her own written stories or fan fiction.

On a side note, what happened to the animation? Why does everything look cheaper and different from Season One? Haruhi really doesn't look right a lot of the time and it's really off putting. I have to say though, it does improve after Endless Eight. Near the end of Sigh it started looking like the original again and then once Disappearance came along everything looked top notch again which was awesome.

Present theory is that during Endless Eight they let the other animation directors have at it and do the show in slightly altered styles so they wouldn't be bored. It also might have been to give various units experiance for later shows. (another theory is that this was a finals project for KyoAni's animation school, the best would not only graduate, by got put in Haruhi. It would explain the wide differences in styles and save them some funds.)
