Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

Ah, I love the dialog in this episode.

"It'll be a battle of attrition." -Haruhi Suzumiya

And Haruhi is a pretty sharp girl as evidenced by her conversation with the apartment manager and her observation of Yuki.

"Impressive interrogating. You should become a detective." -Kyon

Kinda ironic for him to think that, and then have a few later episodes of actual detective work for Haruhi and Co.

As for additional seasons or episodes, my theory is that they will have maybe a couple additional eps like the AIR specials that are shown later, or included on the DVD releases to fill in a few of the gaps. Considering that KyoAni is doing the remake of Kanon (26 eps?) and then they also still have Full Metal Panic as another possible project afterwards, a second season of Haruhi Suzumiya is possibly a year away. According to other people's observations, there should be enough material in the novels for a solid second season (a main story arc and enough stories to fill out 12 - 14 episodes), beyond that...

Haruhi back on number 1 spot of my favourite characters of this show... Yuki held it there for a bit due to her awesomeness, and Mikuru acting in the first episode and her fainting during the Island episode did get top spot at some point too... however, it always came back to Haruhi being my favourite.

The calm before the storm indeed... *sigh* it's about to end.

After rewatching episode 4 (which is chronologically episode 7), I've discovered the following things that will happen in next week's final episode.

Kyon must have gotten too close towards Mikuru which caused one hell of a ruckus.

Kyon and Haruhi got trapped in "another world" which more likely in closed space.

In order for them to get out, Kyon had to do something which made him regret. I bet we ALL know what that is!

Of course seeing these along with some other events not mentioned animated is much more fulling than reading them. Man, I'm getting too excited for this.

Figuring out which is what would be a nuisance to me but hey, it's cool in any order apparently...

Oooo, here's the translation of "God Knows" sung by Haruhi last episode.

I dash with a parched heart
Sorry, I couldn't do anything
You won't even let me
Share pain together with you

To live purely, I turn my back
Without looking back and leave
on the lonely rail

I'll follow
No matter how bitter, even within the darkness of the world
Surely, you're shining
The surpassing edge of the future
So that my soul won't be destroyed due to my weaknesses
my ways will overlap
Now, God bless us two...

Thoughts that grow hot when delivered
Melt into reality and wander
There's no reason to feeling like seeing you
It overflows to you, Lovin' you

At the very least, while I only draw
A beautiful dream, I'll chase you
for your lonely heart

Stop it, telling lies isn't like you
Look at my eyes and let's talk about things from now on
I'm ready
Even in a dark future
I'll become strong and my destiny just might be changeable
Even though I want to fulfill my wish
God knows everything...

You exist, I exist
And other people disappeared
While I draw the beauty of a faint dream
I trace my scars

So I'll follow
No matter how bitter, even within the darkness of the world
Surely, you're shining
The surpassing edge of the future
So that my soul won't be destroyed due to my weaknesses
my ways will overlap
Now, God bless us two...

Man, that song is like Haruhi's calling towards Kyon.

Episode 14 thoughts:

Possible Spoilers and my own rambling thoughts wrote:This was a really great ending to the series. I was really curious as to how Haruhi would react to "closed space" and the shinjin. I'm glad that she behaved exactly how I expected her to.

The opening sequence with Imouto-chan waking up Kyon had me dying with laughter. I've been awakened like that a bunch of times. ^_^

And the scenes with Taniguchi and Kyon's vs. Taniguchi's versions of Kyon x Yuki were priceless. うそつけ．ちっ。。。 Word bubbles ftw.

More after the sub is out...
