The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya 8
Thoughts during episode:
- Stormy weather ahead.
- Kyon's sister is adorable.
- Kyon don't be melodramatic.
- Esper dude is quite level headed.
- Awww Haruhi is concerned about Kyon.
- Fan service all up in this
.
- That was weird.
- Hahahaha. Haruhi hasn't acted really crazy this episode. It's kind of cute.
- And Kyon is acting relatively calm and hasn't complained once yet. This is a good sign. Hopefully it's not just this episode Kyon is like this. He can be cynical all he wants just as long as he's not being a jerk. Cautious, caring Kyon is best Kyon.
- Kyon is being nice and isn't interrupting Esper man. This is a different Kyon.
- Lol. They tried to play that card. I knew they were bluffing.
- Ah there he is. Kyon is back. :|
- Oh Kyon don't be like that. Just because you realized it too doesn't mean you get the credit. Haruhi is doing all the explaining.
- A PHOENIX WRIGHT REFERENCE!!!!! Nice.
- Haruhi doing a Sherlock Holmes reference too. This episode has it all!
- Focusing on that mole a little too much Koi.
- And with this over I now move to the Endless Eight.....
Summary:
Gonna be honest and say that I liked Kyon a lot more in this episode. When he's being caring and what seems like having a little fun he's a much better character. Of course good things aren't meant to last and he returned to being his normal self for the most part by the end of the episode. At least he's not being as snarky/jerky with Koi (Esper man) as much as he usually is. He actually held conversations without cutting anyone off. Maybe, just maybe, his character is growing up and maturing. If that's the case then he may one of these days grow on me. That's a big maybe.
Haruhi was also not as crazy in the first half of the show. It was a nice change of pace for her and actually kind of sweet. Of course when she returned to her usual self in the last quarter of the episode it was glorious. Many great references and her just being awesome.
Let's see what Endless Eight has in store now....
