It was novice for it's time.
It was pioneering in LN adaptations, random episodes order and in using "school club room" setting. Mix of SoL elements and sci-fi is still unique too.
Kyon's witty remarks and storytelling made a show for me so did Haruhi's ambitiousness. Those mysteries about who is the true God, theories, characters shenanigans were pretty fun to look at.
Also Koizumi is the best girl.

>>141695616
Think "that's cool."
I'd actually be happy if there was an announcement of another LN, though, if it had a firm release date.

It's nothing special nowadays because a lot of other anime have basically coped it and the concept of a cynical fuck as a protagonist have been done over and over. It was kind of new at the time. Not only that, the concept of one of the characters unknowingly being God was also kind of cool at the time. It blew up in Japan because of this.

Looking back on it, it's kind of mediocre.

Now, the movie, on the other hand, is arguably the best animated movie of all time and is nothing short of a masterpiece.

I'm still upset that they never showed Kyon's reaction to Koizumi's suggestion during that scene.
Although I haven't gotten that far yet in the LN.

>>141698512
What? The TV series were mediocre, the movie was great. Why is that not rational?

Yeah, the author is a lazy fuck, but that's not the same as the series being cancelled.

And of course forgetting that the movie's value is inherently tied somewhat to that of the show due to leaning so heavily upon it. It is not a movie that can be taken as a standalone piece.

I always liked how many layers there were, though you don't get as many with the show as in the novels. You can take it as a parody of different genres, like with Remote Island Syndrome. There are also parodies of different mediums, like The Sigh of Haruhi Suzumiya, and of basic tropes. For example, Mikuru is an obvious play on moe/"sex sells", with the implication that it'll become more prevalent in the future. You can also enjoy it for playing those things straight, though; it's clever.

It has a lot of real scientific and philosophical concepts, so it's fun to dissect. For example, Mikuru's explanation of the nature of time is similar to our understanding of how time actually flows. Yuki gets into metaphysics, and math becomes something significant to the plot. It's interesting.

As a story, there are a lot of different parts to latch onto. What is Haruhi? What are the goals of these factions? What do the things they spout mean for the story at hand? Is this all happening because they want to appease Haruhi, or is she causing it? Is it both? Kyon's snark is clever, too. I like the allusion he makes--Sigmund Freud, Sisyphus, Shakespeare, Dragon Quest. The prose might not be colorful, but it's quite dense. It's interesting from a literary standpoint, as well. Haruhi wants so bad to see interesting things, and she refuses to give up, but she's learning to find joy in regular things. Kyon wants to live an ordinary life and move on, but he finds himself in so many interesting things. It really makes you think about your outlook on life, especially in The Melancholy and The Disappearance.

I haven't read The Surprise yet (buying English books; sixth one no longer exists, apparently), but from what I know about it, it seems to be doing all these things: childhood friend, alternate timelines, alternative interpretations of the world and spear counterparts.

/gush. I hope I don't sound too stupid.

>>141699249
Evangelion and Madoka. Not as much, though.

>>141699821
Watched it week to week while airing. The butthurt on /a/ was nuts.

>>141699821
I've watched the show twice, and I watched that twice. First time, it didn't bother me. Second time, it got on my nerves. That actually made me appreciate it more, though.

>>141699249
Maybe Claymore before it went to shit and Steins;Gate

>>141699821
I legitimately enjoyed it. The episodes are actually really comfy and they literally spam my favorite tropes so I wasn't even remotely upset.

WOULD YOU RATHER:

Haruhi Suzumiya gets a live-action, feature-length, fully westernized adaptation that has good localization, treats the story and characters well, and is just an over-all well made movie, BUT with no season 3 in the foreseeable future.

OR

Have a season 3 in the foreseeable future but with character redesigns similar to pic related, and less adherence to the source material including edgy moments of teenage angst, less comedy, and an over-all darker, more serious tone.

You may only choose one.

>>141699583
Tiffany Grant.

>>141701642
I would enjoy a live-action film. I'm looking forward to KimiUso. It seems like mostly shoujo manga gets live-action adaptations because of the types of stories popular with girls, but I think a film based on The Melancholy would be phenomenal. I wouldn't mind it being western, though a Japanese one would be first, if only because they'd probably change the names.

>>141701642
Obviously the first? What's the point of having Se if it's bad?

>>141702002
>Se
S3*

>>141701642
That is an awful no win situation.

I choose the second choice mainly to see the /a/ shitstorms.

>>141701642
How would a good live action Haruhi even work? And how would you fit the required character development to make the titular character work into two hours?

>>141702988
The first book could easily fit in a feature length film. Hell, the first book is covered by 6 episodes, that's like, a little less than 2 and a half hours, and that's without cutting out shit that western audiences wouldn't get and is largely unnecessary to the story anyways.

>>141695845
That's one lemon I wouldn't mind being near my eyes.

I don't honestly know what I'd do? I'd be happy for one thing. I first watched haruhi as a girl but after the accident I was only able to watch it as a man from then on. I still don't know quite how I feel about it from this point of view but whatever the case I'll always love Haruhi as if she were real again. I miss those lazy days in the woods hunting with my anime friends. One day I plan on going back and honestly don't care how many miles of land are burned. I'm going back and I'm going to embrace my original form to the very end. I'll live my life the way I was meant to live it.

While it's certainly true that it's been a while between drinks, my time with Black Lagoon has conditioned me to accept how slow and lazy Japanese creators can be.

It's a funny now but when I'm next I'm not going to remember you and I'm not even going to share my love. What are you even? I can't believe you're actually people the way you are saying things about others. We are all human in our own way and judging from your posts I don't even know if your a demon or even worse. I'm over this world and its people.
