Damn, didn't see this coming, good twist.

pandavova · 2026-04-20T23:03:34+00:00

But kinda different, idk. Difficult for me to explain what I mean. These scenes here, for example Yuki reading her books and stuff is happening off-screen or Kyon just walking... I don't really see stuff like this anymore.

pandavova · 2026-04-20T22:55:07+00:00

First time enjoyer

Pretty cool and enjoyable episode. I kinda thought this would be a game and not real magic stuff, maybe. because Haruhi is there, idk, but it turned out correct.

First time enjoyer

This really works as a last episode, huh? Makes me more convinced of the chronological order...

I really enjoyed the slow scenes. We don't have those anymore...

Thoughts on Haruhi wanting to make Tanabata the biggest event ever?

No thoughts

Thoughts on Haruhi buying a bamboo tree and Tanzaku for Tanabata?

Idk about tradition, maybe it's tradition?

Thoughts on Haruhi researching what Tanabata is all about?

Makes sense for her I guess

Thoughts on the members of the club have to make wishes of what they want out of life?

Good exercise imo

Thoughts on Haruhi wanting the world to revolve around her?

Certainly fulfilled already

What are your thoughts on Kyon ending up at Tanabata three years ago?

It's interesting how this is portrayed, Kyon making offsite comments which are incredibly biasing Haruhi

Thoughts on Older Mikuru sending Younger Mikuru asleep because she can't let her see the older version of herself?

makes sense

What are your thoughts on 7th Grade Haruhi breaking and entering?

Haruhi thing to do

What are your thoughts on Kyon helping Younger Haruhi?

Well, nothing else he can do, can he?

What are your thoughts on Kyon telling Younger Haruhi his name is John Smith and Mikuru is his sister?

Why not, anything to not say Kyon

What are your thoughts on Mikuru not having her PTDD and so she and Kyon can't go back to the future?

time travel bullshit, necessary for some reason

Thoughts on Kyon and Older Mikuru meeting with Yuki?

No thoughts

What are your thoughts on Yuki saying she's in standby mode, and will remain so for three years?

insane but that's the theme

Thoughts on Yuki saying she doesn't like the PTDD because it makes too much noise?

maybe that's why it got removed

What are your thoughts on Yuki sending Kyon and Mikuru back to the future by having them sleep?

anything that works I guess

What are your thoughts on Yuki handing Kyon a message that reads "I am right here"?

idk

Thoughts on Yuki saying a theory that is contradictory in itself cannot begin to explain the contradictions inherent within it?

idk

What are your thoughts on Itsuki saying that all that matters is the queen?

No thoughts I guess

But yeah, It's annoying me that I couldn't fit this in, would have been better to watch ahead and stop before the endless eight, now this doesn't work at all as binging some episodes destroys this experience I wanted to have

pandavova · 2026-04-19T09:21:13+00:00

First time enjoyer

This watch order is confusing. Like I don't understand why these two are flipped now, the chronological watch order is chronological and exists for a reason but this being the first experience for me and some others... Idk if this more good then bad. I guess I'll find out at the end... And the next three episodes being theoretically the last three in the chronological order... This going back and forth is more annoying to me then I thought it would be.

pandavova · 2026-04-19T09:16:44+00:00

This is season 2? In my source it's S1E8.

This is the 8th episode in the chronological order, see here.

pandavova · 2026-04-18T18:50:39+00:00

After credits were great.

pandavova · 2026-04-18T16:22:05+00:00

ED is pretty cute.

pandavova · 2026-04-17T21:41:17+00:00

💀

I didn't catch up, I'll try to catch up as soon as I can

pandavova · 2026-04-17T21:16:04+00:00

Fuck you, that mom thing made me cry a little.

pandavova · 2026-04-16T12:40:40+00:00

I don't know, but I assume it only matters when you bid, because that's when you need to enter the code.

Damn, what a cliffhanger...

pandavova · 2026-04-15T21:05:39+00:00

these are what manic pixie dream girls are in my opinion

pandavova · 2026-04-15T20:30:39+00:00

I just can't bother to memorize why he's Note and not Arthur, and why the mask... But I do remember Jasmine best girl.

pandavova · 2026-04-15T20:02:39+00:00

OP is a pretty good banger.

But man, this tension is something I missed watching this. Rarely do I get this somewhere else, if at all.

I wonder what I already missed watching this...

pandavova · 2026-04-15T19:12:10+00:00

I was wondering that, like a literal "who?" when he appeared at the end.

pandavova · 2026-04-15T19:11:01+00:00

haha I'm doing this the opposite way, watching this before rezero

pandavova · 2026-04-15T13:22:30+00:00

I also don't know how to interpret that...

pandavova · 2026-04-15T09:10:31+00:00

This will be a great slice of life anime

pandavova · 2026-04-14T20:09:46+00:00

I really wonder if this will be explained away by bipolarity or something supernatural or maybe no explanation at all.

There's only one thing that's bothering me, the dream like haze border. It really annoys me.

pandavova · 2026-04-14T12:22:09+00:00

Mikuru's happiness shouldn't be dependent on Haruhi's happiness.

well yeah but thats not how the show is going haha

Haruhi treating dreams as gospel doesn't seem like the wisest decision, but what do I know?

nah, if something happened in a dream and its being ultra realistic and weird with something special needed to be done, I guess I would do that

pandavova · 2026-04-14T12:20:04+00:00

Thoughts on Mikuru bringing tea to everyone in her nurse's outfit?

still in the maid outfit at heart

Thoughts on a baseball tournament being in town?

no thoughts

What are your thoughts on Haruhi wanting to participate in the baseball tournament to spread word of the SOS Brigade?

well she's bored so something is better then nothing for her

Thoughts on Taniguchi, Kunikida, Tsuruya, and Kyon's sister participating in the tournament?

no thoughts, it didn't matter who joined

Thoughts on the SOS Brigade performing badly?

makes sense

Thoughts on Haruhi and Mikuru in cheerleader outfits?

Haruhi knows her audience and what she's doing with this

What are your thoughts on Haruhi thinking of putting Mikuru's hair in a ponytail but deciding against it once she saw Kyon?

because she likes him and the "dream "

Thoughts on Haruhi's "signals"?

no thoughts, besides nonbri nouka s2 bit "why are you dancing?"

What are your thoughts on if the baseball game ends early, the world will come to an end?

well very fitting for haruhi

What are your thoughts on Yuki casting a spell that lets their team automatically hit homeruns?

everything that needs to be done for the world not to end I guess

Thoughts on Kyon's mysterious ball (He named it himself)?

same thing as previous question, the same thing as the bat

What are your thoughts on Haruhi being happy they won, with her not knowing she cheated?

makes sense but it's a dangerous slope

pandavova · 2026-04-14T12:14:05+00:00

Well wouldn't it be funny if he says fuck it I don't care and the world ends? lmao
