I've not read any of the source material, so I'm just going to take it as it comes ... at the moment its just an entertaining character study about a small group of people centered by the chaos we call Suzumiya.

So err.. wtf, didnt i say so i wont take the chance... so as of meaning isnt that obviously i WONT make another thread?

and i havent even read the manga btw, so screw u.
Im just statin my theories thats about it.
If it interest you than im happy. If other people like to relate to it that, thats great i be really really happy

as much said, okay some people might of shut their mouth's but some people might have not even realized it. So some people likes to spoiled then well they can read my theory to this series

So much as im gonna blab more ill just sum it up

I kept it under forum regulations so screw u dude i havent done anything wrong

oh btw, thats why i stated on top, i want to create another topic for my theories for suzumiya but you assume i would but i didnt...

Apparently Paiser has difficulties following the English language, though I guess I can see that it *might* be confusing to some. I thought I was having a regular conversation with him and just noting that everyone had been nice enough to keep spoilers to themselves. Theories are not spoilers, so what he was posting was not an issue. I also agreed with him that starting a new thread wasn't a good idea. I in no way attacked him and actually said I thought his ideas were interesting.

Oh... and, Paiser, you just blew forum regulations with that little nasty post.

In that case, it must be in another forum where I read the spoiler.

And yes, the truth about that event after the "beam attack" is strange.

There's no mistake! Haruhi is "THE ONE"!

Man, just finished reading the 1st novel and I have to say something... OH MY GOD... I can't wait to see all this animated! Ladies and Gentlemen, we are in for a ride! Yessiree

Spoiler for 1st novel spoilers:

Spoiler:

The explanations/events surrounding Yuki, Mikuru and Itsuki were amazing. And they kept on piling higher and higher on each other. At first after the Yuki/Asakura Ryoko thing I was wondering how in the world can this novel continue without being anti-climatic but then each chapter upped the stakes even higher until the final culmination. Simply loved the little hints of unrealized jealousy from Haruhi and her momentary (unconscious?) change of hairstyle again at the end. Haruhi and Kyon must be the most 'dysfunctional' in the not-realizing-it-way pairing I've seen. 分かっているくせに... And I love them for it. Yuki was amazing too with all the little is-she/or isn't-she descriptions of possible emotion. Mikuru's events were lighter and not as 'serious' as Yuki's or Itsuki's but were a nice contrast. Itsuki, though I found his 'power' a bit disappointing, his explanations and speculations blew me away.

One book down... six more to go...

...snip the spoiler... =/

That would explain a lot, she knows of the real world which is a lot more fun than being locked down by drones

Oh god I'm crying at the spoilers, temptations so high, but must not spoil self for sake of watching this show! T_T

Question for readers of the novel... did it spoil your experience while watching the series? I really want to pick them up, but it seems like there are many interesting spoilers that should be left to find out while enjoying the anime and reading the novel afterward for more depth.

And if someone could give me a page timeline on the 2nd (or rather 1st ep) it would be appreciated!

I can't really answer the 1st ques as I started on the anime then went to the novel, but there are others who should able to give the precise answer. Most of the novel is reproduced, some is summarized. As for me now I find myself going, "Oh.. so thats what it meant" about certain random things that happen in the opening and the episode itself. It makes me want to go back and review the eps for the I-dunno-how-many-th time.

It has been mentioned before but the 2nd ep ends at the 2nd line of the 66th page.

As a poster of one of those spoilers, it probably sounds hollow coming from me but... don't give in!

Well.. if you must click the damn button, close you eyes .. or make it a double click

No, quite the opposite really (at least for me personally). If the anime was crappy, then knowing what's going to happen will probably detract from what little the anime would have to offer. But since Kyoani did such a good job with the anime, us novel-readers are only more excited about every episode because we know it's going to be awesome.

By 2nd/1st ep, I assume you mean the latest episode. Like I mentioned before, it ran up to page 66 (out of 300 pages) of volume 1 of the novel (about halfway through chapter 2, out of the 7 chapters), following it almost to a tee.

The initial volumes takes some time to build up tempo, but it gets more interesting later. 頑張って一気に四巻まで読んでみて。^^

I am hijacking this post XD

I concurred with Sushi. Seeing all the hidden plot lines being lay out in the anime makes it for fun for us, the novel readers.

Especially me, since I had envisioned the scenes in my head when I read the story. The animation just what was in my head onto the TV screen.
