So what exactly was the melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi? What was she so melancholic about?
Was it because of her newfound lust over Kyon's dick?
>>
she was melancholy because she thought she wasn't special and that special people didn't exist
>>
>>140520943
>Was it because of her newfound lust over Kyon's dick?
Yes. Literally the entire plot is driven by Haruhi wanting to fuck Kyon so badly that she screws with reality, and Kyon being oblivious.

I phrased my question poorly. I specifically meant the Melancholy arc, after she met Kyon and formed the SOS Brigade, which culminates in one of the best episodes in anime.

What the fuck was endless eight

Just post more Haruhi.

A really roundabout way of helping Kyon with his damn homework.

Melancholy was such an expertly paced adaptation, when they adapted Sigh and Disappearance it felt slow as shit.

I will always love the high-energy, cozy yet mysterious feeling that Season 1 gave.
>>
>>140522338
Season 1 had the main arc spaced out over the entire season, with random episodes in between. I felt like that was perfect and the biggest reason why broadcast is superior to chronological. Watching Sigh felt weird since it was the normal chronological form and just wasn't as good as Melancholy.

Wrong, Hauhi doesn't tamper with reality because of Kyon, in facts it's the exact opposite, Kyon is the reason she does that less over the time.

This is actually kinda correct.

He can be both the origin of the problem and its solution. She got pretty bent out of shape over Sasaki.

>>140522631

I honestly completely forgot that happened.

>>140526818
I think I read (quite a while ago) in one of these threads that Sasaki actually might have a slight crush on Haruhi. Is there anything to this or is it just yurifag bait?

It's airing with Spice and Wolf Season 3, the non-CGI, non-butchered Berserk, a proper adaptation of Yumekui Merry, the continuation of Hajime no Ippo and the third season of Index, featuring Railgun S tier animations.

That's an interesting thought. I inferred zero sexual tension between her and Kyon. There's also a thing about Sasaki switching pronouns when she talks to men (other than Kyon), and that might be some kind of Nip gaydar alert that I'm not cultured enough to understand.
>>
so we down for sunday like always?
>>
whats the tl;dr on haruhi and kyons relationship and how they affect each other?
>>
>>140526479
Remember, Haruhi didn't meet Kyon at North High.
She met him on Tanabata three years ago, and, according to Haruhi in Disappearance, became obsessed with "John Smith". And that's right around the time when all of the weird shit started happening.
>>
>>140526952
Now that you mention it, I remember that I got that vibe when she's talking with Kyon in Surprise epilogue. You probably need yuri goggles to interpret it like that, but she says some interesting things.
>>
>>140527940
Both are tsun as fuck about it. It doesn't get much development besides a couple of cute moments, but in the latest novels some interesting shit went down

Apparently they're going together to college

Because she can never be happy. She wanted the world to be more exciting by the way of time travelers, aliens and espers and she unknowingly made it so. But then those people situate themselves around her and protect her from knowing about those things, and also protect the world from changing again by manipulating her. The title, "The Melancholy" of Haruhi Suzumiya refers to the fact that she can never be happy because she will always be searching, longing for more supernatural and exciting things to happen in the world and in her life, but they never will.

This is why I think Tanigawa is done and probably will never finish the franchise. In order for Haruhi to be happy, to put the character at rest, she has to accept the fact that the world is an ordinary place, she has to settle down, which of course would be totally out of character. Perhaps she could achieve this through falling in love, and Koizumi seems to encourage this path and I think this is the reason why. I'm sure that Tanigawa just doesn't know how he wants to actually do it and make it interesting because he did all of the heavy philosophy, psychology and physics material he wanted already and and ran out of material. The story of how to end the franchise has been laid out already, but the substance of the material just isn't there in Tanigawa's head.
>>
>>140521822
A way for them to help you understand what yuki was going through, and leave enough material for them to make disappearance as a movie.
>>
>>140528336
Nice try. Melancholy is only the name of the first book. The series is called simply Haruhi Suzumiya.
>>
>>140528583
Jeez that's really besides the point
>>
>>140528676
Not really. The point is repeatedly made throughout the series that Haruhi is increasingly happy with her circumstances.
>>
>>140521822
build up for the movie
imagine watching the movie without endless eight
yuki's character development would make no sense

but endless eight still sucked
movie was good though

But she becomes happy by learning to enjoy the company of seemingly normal people. Koizumi even notes shes getting better out loud. Its only melancholy for a lil bit.

Shes actually the reverse of Kyons disappearance predicament, while he chooses the world with a madcap godmode Haruhi, aliens and time travel, she becomes increasingly more comfortable with regular friends.

Melancholy was volume 1. All the others had different names.
>>
>>140528794
>>140530421
I agree with you guys that she does get better as the series goes along, the characters themselves even acknowledge it, but her problems aren't solved. If the entire universe and everything in it weren't in a constant state of danger from Haruhi's powers, then there wouldn't be a show. The scenario and entire crux of the show is still in full effect, if Haruhi wasn't a threat to existence then there would be no need for aliens, time travelers and espers to keep an eye on and manipulate her. This is what needs to be resolved to end the story, Tanigawa knows it, he just doesn't know HOW to do it, and I don't think he cares anymore.

>>140528336
She looked pretty happy at the end of the concert when the band thanked her. I think once she accepts a normal life can be fun, the series will end.
