I just finished watching episode 9 of the 2nd season of Haruhi, or should I call it episode 3-G, and I have to say I am currently disappointed.
I haven’t read the Haruhi novels in completion so I only have to assume that this arc was covered in that but did they really need to make it 7 episodes?
I don’t like giving away spoilers but I think i can in this case, If you don’t want to be spoiled then I suggest ignoring the next paragraph and skipping to the next.
Basically they had the SOS Brigade stuck in a time loop and repeated the same two weeks over 15,320 times… they showed the last 7 loops. They were almost identical so the first time you see the loop you think that you were watching the first episode of the arc.
I personally think they could have pulled off the same effect with three or four episodes.
Don’t get me wrong… I still love the series but by doing this it may have lost some newer and less “die-hard” viewers.
I can only hope that the rest of the 2nd season is not a waste.
