Rather we should hope for a wildly succesful Japanese run, followed by a very well recieved DVD release... shortly followed up with a NA license agreement that also includes a novel translation. If we get all that, there's a pretty decent chance they'll do a second season in the next year or two ^^;; If some of that falls through, there's still the chance we'll see a second season in 2-3 years T_T Last edited by Adigard; 2006-04-20 at 00:26. |

I'm still assuming it's 13 eps and a DVD only ep though T_T With the number of volumes released already theres a fairly good chance they could run beyond 14 eps... but it seems a little unlikely they'd suddenly extend the show. But nothings impossible with a big enough fanbase (except... the anime companies don't make money off releasing the anime on TV... so... it'd have to be a big fanbase buying merchendise) ^^ |

Spoiler for what really happened, if you don't wanna know, then wait patiently for my translation of vol 1 chapter 7:
Say, does anyone know when the anime OP and ED single is coming out? I can't get those music off my mind, I must have them in me iPod!!! |

On the subject of DVD release, KyoAni may release Haruhi on Blu-ray as well (I dunno if they announced this officially though). Blu-ray has no region lock and... I want to see this in 1080i! O good god... (AIR on Blu-ray was what suckered me into pre-order PS3)

//EDIT: A quick search on Wiki (It's Wikipedia, YMMV) yielded these Blu-Ray region codes: 1 North America, South America, Japan and East Asia (excluding China) 2 Europe and Africa 3 India, China, Russia, and all other countries. |

Japan and US to share region encoding on Blu-ray...
yea. Ur right about that. Although that still translate to getting Japanese release without the woes of being in another region. There is a region 4: Null. That setting seems to be what the initial PS3's will be released at, not sure though. |

That's a good question. HD-DVD camp is supported by MS and Sony Blu-ray. KyoAni looks to be siding at Blu-ray camp which would make HD-DVD release unplausable.
As an aside, according to the Inquirer, it is possible to transmit HDMI using dual link DVI port (which means the video card of 'this' generation with ATi x1k and Nvidia 6k+ series), san audio, using a dongle. There will be content protection issue to worry about (guess what, HD ready and protection scheme matters) ... from what've I know so far anything we can buy today will not pass the certification. However, a good news is that rumor has it all initial products available for HD (blu-ray of HD-DVD) will not strictly enforce protection but that won't last... This translates into whatever we use to watch HD media useless by perhaps 2k7~2k8. |
