the disappearance

First of all, i would like to say OMG. Borders going bankrupt? Crazyness to the extreme!Secondly. what i wanted to talk about today is something that is really old hat, but whatever… i feel like i am the only person of this opinion so i will give it!

i say "The Melancholy of Haruhi season 2" and the whole world screams back in reply "God, Endless 8 sucked!" then i say in reply, "you ignorant swine!"
what do i mean? Well first i would assume you to be an anime watching individual, and one who like (not necessarily loved) the first season of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzymiya. i mean if you aren’t and you didn’t then you can stop reading right now, because you straight up won’t understand. So the endless eight has been described as a very repetitve boring waste of time and money. i mean i would agree with that if i didn’t… but from an objective stand point, yes making 8 seemingly identical episodes of the same show would seem… dumb. only it wasn’t accidental at all. nor was the fact that you felt utterly bored watching the thing.
i didn’t watch them as they came out but i could image how it would have been. you wait a whole week for the next episode of your favorite show to come out, and… what the heck… have i seen this already? no… it is … different… but really it is almost exactly the same. I would have to give it to the nay sayers, except for the fact that the movie, The disappearance of Haruhi, exists. If it did not then i would have no point.
in this movie (spoiler alert!) Nagato takes Haruhi’s powers and rewrites the world so that she isn’t an alien, and so that Haruhi is not ‘god’, etc. why?
well if you paid attention to the endless 8 you may have an inkling as to why. she spend over 500 years looping through the same few weeks. she was feed up. she needed a break. she was sick of all the responsibility that was thrust on her, and what is the real reason was she was bored. imagine you have 500 years to watch a person you were sent to watch… i think you would get a pretty good idea of what they were like.
Now why would the directors of the show put their fans through something so tedious and time consuming as watching the same episode 8 times? i mean, they drew it 8 times too, it couldn’t have been exactly the most enjoyable. then the voice actors too. (they did revoice at least a majority of each one). so you could connect in a way not attainable previously to the ’emotionless’ Nagato Yuki, then be given the best 2 hours of the show in existence, The disappearance of haruhi. that is what i think. and i am glad i watched the endless eight, because Nagato is the coolest character in the show.
anyway that is about it. i am tired, yo.

Bye-Q!
