Can someone explain to me what is this talk about haruhi? I watched a couple months ago something that had the name Haruhi on it but they were short episodes and they were crappy as hell... is this the same thing?

Your probably thinking of the first episode of Haruhi Suzumiya it's a normal 13 episode series with 22 minute episodes. The episodes didn't air in chronological order so I think the first episode you saw was a couple of independent films the main characters made for a school festival.

It's a pretty over-rated series I'd call it the modern day Evangelion. It's entertaining, but it's not a must see there's a lot of cool ideas handled in a sloppy unsatisfying way.

Maybe what PerritoBites saw was some short animations made for the web (25 episodes of 2 to 8 minutes says wikipedia).

That sounds like what I saw

I started watching Hajime No Ippo based on what a few of you said in this thread. I must say I've enjoyed it alot. I started from episode 1 and now on like 30 something from this weekend. Great story arc and the character development is great. The locker room shower exerts seriously made me lol.

They should just move on to the next episode and give no explanation whatsoever.

Man, I should work for KyoAni or Gainax or something.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: I think it is failing though. You have the initial episode, ok. Then in the second one there is a progression with the night talk that explains the loop. In the third, it concludes with Kyon speculating that somewhere within the two weeks there must be clues in what Haruhi says or does, so you watch the 4th with increased focus. The fourth has these multiple appearance of toy planes in the sky or on a T-Shirt... at this point, it is seriously kick ass. BUT The 4th episode ends with nothing new and the 5th and 6th bring nothing to the table. In fact they are even a step down compared to the plane motif in 4th... this is highly unsatisfying, because the slight variations in clothing, setting, music, event and film making are too minor to capture our attention (or at least mine) for episodes that bring nothing new to the global riddle. They have 2 episodes to make me forget the filler, but as that point I would not be surprised if endless eight is completed by 2 more variation and no resolution. Something that would be both amazing and lame. __________________ -retrosabotage-
