The Novel and Manga of Haruhi Suzumiya

[X207]

i started with anime then found out about the novel translations

[Kaioshin Sama]

Hey new novel, when did that happen?

Looks like new characters too. One of the shots on Baka-Tsuki has what looks like an older Kyon's Sister, Cousin It from The Addams Family, and some other girl on the right.

After reading the details, Finally the "plot" is moving in A direction. Up until now the series has almost felt like an endless series of wacky antics and "Oh that girl is CUURAZY" observations. This new revelation reminds me of the Seinfeld episode with the "Other Seinfeld Gang" that kept popping up. The funniest part was when they met at the end and just kind of stared at each other in disbelief. Luckily these new characters don't look much like the SOS-Dan regulars though. I am extremely amused by Cousin It (Suou)however. Looks like Tsuruya has been bested.

Any idea why the website is down? At least I haven't been able to log onto it for a while now...

Do you mean the Baka-Tsuki website?

If yes, there was a new link, iirc. >.<

May I ask for little detail in vol.9 ?

Spoiler for vol.9 spoiler:

I want to ask about "Other" sos-dan.

I already know most detail of them from reading the spoiler but there is the little thing that I want to know more. those thing are.....

1. How is each member of "Other" sos-dan members personality?

2. How do they call each other?
(Ex : how is Kyouko call Sasaki (She call her with "Sasaki" or "Sasaki-san") )

3. How is Kyon call each of them ?

That's all.

P.S. Sorry for my Low Level English writing skill. I'm apologise if you don't understand my question.

Spoiler:

1. Sasaki acts and talks like a guy in front of Kyon (or any other male), although Kyon mentioned that she has a feminine side that only comes out when she's with other girls.

Personality wise, she's somewhat similar to Koizumi: logical thinker, but wordy at times. Kind of like the anti-Haruhi, really.

2. Kyouko speaks in a casual but polite language. She refers to everyone with a -san. As for Fujiwara and Suou, I don't think they ever called out to anyone in the group.

3. Kyon never called out to anyone in the group except Sasaki (which is just simply "Sasaki"). Although I'd imagine he'd just use their last names without the honorifics.

Anyway, I bring this

Looks like we're seeing a delay of the next volume.

there is something bothering me in the prologue
Sasaki call the name Kyon, but isnt the nickname Kyon first formed in the highschool ? or did they also call him Kyon in the middle school ?

His sister invented it when he was in middle school, I believe.

^ Wait, I thought it was a nickname his grandma gave him that his sister liked so much, that she told everyone else?

By the way, Kyon would be me. My aunt was the one who first called me that. A few years ago, my long-time-no-see aunt suddenly said to me "My goodness, Kyon has grown so big!" My sister thought it was funny and also started to call me Kyon. After that the rest is history— my friends, upon hearing my sister calling me Kyon, decided to follow her lead. From that day on, my nickname became Kyon. Damn it, my sister used to call me "Onii-chan"!

There we go.

Manga isnt taht bad really. Its just anime did a great job. besides manga rushed and skipped a few things (specially in the beginning) thats why its not something fans would like.

However, is it just me, or does mangaka really make Haruhi like Kyon more in his manga? At least thats what impression I get afer looking though all 3 volumes of it.

I don't think it's someone new. It sounds suspiciously like a member of the SOS Dan.

Spoiler:

He recognizes the conversation style (and the reader should too, because she gives enough hints), but her voice doesn't register as someone Kyon has heard before, so he dismisses her from his list of usual suspects

[Jehuty77]

Ya I've been following the progress.

I've read Novels 3-8 in the past few weeks. Cant wait to see whats next.

I just hope they start making more progress in the relationship department between Kyon and Haruhi not 2 mention plot progression in general. I have to also say I've always thought there was more to Kyon then one would think.

I like the couple althought its becoming somewhat annoying how they continue to lie or down right ignore their feelings for each other. Its so obvious to the readers and there has many chances to make this relationship progress. It seems like they were ment to hook up like 3 novels ago but the author saw the popularity so decided to string it out longer.

In any case I cant wait to see what happens next. Hope that Novel 10 comes out soon. I'm sure these new girls wont get in the way or replace the SOS Brigade since that would defeat the purpose of everything up to this point.

well one person does get in haruhi's way. i havent read any spoilers, i just wait for the translation to be completed
lol, chances of haruhi letting one certain person in is quite slim. maybe it'll put the question whether the club still has a purpose into play
