Of course some people didn't really take that bit lightly; they actually felt that "fansub rant" was pretty pushy.
I tend to do this quite a bit. :x

Some people fail at comprehending anything tongue-in-cheek then :roll:

Seriously, when something made at a major company's office gives "special thanks" to "fansub viewers who buy DVD's", you gotta hand it to them. They've basically come right out and said what any company should say -

"do whatever you want, as long as you buy the DVDs"
(paraphrase from the musician in my avatar, Adrian Belew, who said the same thing about his CDs)

:roll:
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Y'all forgot to mention, DVDs in late May! Volume 1 is available with a box (I hope it's a nice sturdy one, not like the My-Hime box :( ) and there will be 4 DVDs in total.

And the next ASOS episode will hopefully reveal the voice actors for the English dub. They do mention a trip to a studio at the very end of episode 001...

That next episode will be epic if I could get to see those reactions! :lol:

it better fucking not be in chronological order.
KioAtWork: I'm so bored. I don't have class again for another half hour.
Minion: masturbate into someones desk and giggle about it for the remaining 28 minutes

Judging by the overwhelming number votes for the Kyon order on the www.asosbrigade.com site poll,
Chronological (Haruhi) order - 18% / 696 Votes

TV Broadcast (Kyon) order - 74% / 2794 Votes

No preference - 5% / 199 Votes

I have no idea what you are talking about - 2% / 93 Votes

Total Votes: 3782
I hope they get the message that the fans want the broadcast order. Plus, the series loses some of the WTF?-ness if show in chronological order. Sure, chronological order is easier to understand story-wise, but the impact of the final broadcast episodes would be lessened. Some of what makes TMoHS what it is is the mixing up of the episodes.

not the mention, when it's out of order episode 14 is good climax for the season.

is there any 100% comfirmation that theres gonna be a season 2? even with how popular it is, i'm a bit skeptical.

!-- No, they don't --

It seems someone is having fun...

Ohhh, that's that cheap, knock-off, live-action porn version. These are the same guys who did that Faith/Stay Night in which Shirou looks butt ugly! :lol:

(though it did guarantee Rin x Saber moments and showed what the mana transfer SUPPOSED to be :twisted: ).
