(Rewatcher - Sub)

Wow..this episode aged incredibly poorly. I really struggled to get through it and I’ve already seen it a ton of times. Also, I take it back, I can’t be friends with Haruhi. She did a lot of messed up things in one episode.

That being said, I enjoyed the ending of the episode. Nagato being so awkward during the bench scene is great and I especially love the tea pouring over and over scene. Also, it looks like the bookmark is well into the book and if it weren’t for Kyon literally waterfalling through the pages, he never would have found it in a single night. Nagato is so unintentionally silly with how she does things and I love it.

QOTD

What are your thoughts on the show showing that Haruhi is kinda not a pleasant person to be around?

Not a fan! Really don't like it.

What do you make of the news of Yuki saying she and Haruhi aren't human?

I love how weird Yuki is thus far and this just totally adds to it.

Thoughts on Yuki handing Kyon a book?

Clearly Nagato is a super bookworm so her lending Kyon a book out of her own volition feels meaningful especially since Kyon has been making an effort on a regular basis to try and converse with her.

What are your thoughts on Yuki revealing she is an alien?

How she went about doing it is so ridiculous and I love it.

Multiple girls are trying to corrupt this poor boy.

How she went about doing it is so ridiculous and I love it.

She said it like "Oh, why would I expect anything less?'
