The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Discussion Thread

[blueflower999]

Well. I think I have a new favorite movie. I still need a few things explained though.

Spoiler

Who pushed Kyon down the steps? Was it the future version of himself? If so, what happened to the Kyon that got stabbed by Asakura? Can someone please explain this in a way I understand? Dang, this show is confusing!

I still don't know these answers, either...

[blueflower999]

I read through part of the thread, and I see some discussion about this. I don't think I'll ever understand. Oh well. Still my new favorite movie of all time!

Oh, and new sig.

[EFitTrainr]

I updated mine as well.

[Yugi]

Oh, and new sig.

Was listening to this when I looked at your sig and it fitted for some reason.

Kyon goes back in time at a point later on after the film to rescue himself from Asakura. The two are not different "versions", rather they coexist like Mikuru Asahina and her adult counterpart. Nagato and the others likely got him to the hospital and tended his wounds. My theory is that the "pushing down the stairs" incident never really happened.

Also I hope you watched through the credits!

Also I watched all the Endless Eights back to back with no interruption tonight.

Like a boss.

Ultimate beast level.

[blueflower999]

I skimmed with my mouse through the credits and saw what I think you're talking about. So yes.

[SlowPokemon]

Well there's the post credits scene, but the music is beautiful--it's Yuki's Japanese voice actress singing. It's fitting given how much of the film was about Yuki.

[Jompa]

I just discovered that the melody of "Aru Ame no hi" is slightly flat..?
Is this intentional to give it that melancholic feel?
hm, exciting...

Huh, it just hit me that I forgot to include "Tomare." Oh well, since Super Driver didn't get many votes, I think I could assume the results wouldn't be much different. New poll in a moment.

[SlowPokemon]

What is your favorite arc in the series?

I know you will think I'm crazy, but I picked Endless Eight. Despite its terrible reputation, I've gone through it twice now and really enjoyed it both times. It's definitely unorthodox, but it's so overtly Haruhi that it's hard not to love it for me.

[Jompa]

Ok, who voted endless eight? 

Ninja'd

EDIT: well, the OST is brilliant..
