Anyway, speaking of Haruhi, I'm on the last chapter of book 10.  Poor poor Kyon...I plan on trying to write something to contain what's actually happening this arc and organize my thoughts.

EDIT:
Also time for some wicked video sharing:
Slamganronpa - Quad City DJs vs Masafumi Takada -yes a Barkley remix of Dangan Ronpa
Furu Guy Sings Umineko Rhapsody - new lyrics that work so well!
/v/ Singan Gaems - Live and Learn  <----this one is amazing

I tried watching the melancholy of Haruhi Susumiya, but hardly understood it. I read somewhere that you had to watch the order of the videos in a certian order.

I watched the first two or so episodes of Haruhi a while back. Seemed pointless and uninteresting, and the implied reveal from the android or whatever just struck me as a contrived excuse for a miserable premise.

In short, I don't know what the hook was, but apparently it failed miserably.

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

You can't really judge it by the first episode .

Or the second season, for that matter.

Haruhi is amazing.  Especially where I am in the novels.  It's insane.

Linearity can suck it.

The issue is that after seeing it put in order... I am more convinced that the author wasn't REALLY going for anything by putting them out of order... but more that he didn't want to write them linearly because that would get boring.

This is especially evident in the arcs that take FOREVER to complete.

I don't know actually. I only know the Anime is out of order.

I prefer watching it in order anyhow.

The only reason I can think of for putting it out of order outside of... what I already said (or budget)... Is that it is supposed to bring the focus away from continuity.

That's not including the usual shenanigans.
