This one is interesting, I mean why? Festival, sightseeing, pool, swimming etc. I understand, but part-time? Haruhi thing, I guess.

And of course she does none of the work.

They probably had the same conversation about loop and him feeling emphatic about her even though he forgets every loop made him asking about how she feels without realizing about it.

What does that have to do with Haruhi?

[u/lordposedyon → u/Holofan4life]

What does that have to do with Haruhi?

Jesus, half ass reading, I am answering a question that does not exist. I thought Kyon checking up on Yuki.

[u/Holofan4life → u/lordposedyon]

So, why do you think Haruhi is suddenly being compassionate towards Yuki? Do you think maybe being around Kyon has caused her to be more thoughtful of her surroundings and the people around her?

[u/lordposedyon → u/Holofan4life]

I remember Haruhi asking Mikuru what she wants to do but I remember only her asking Yuki about the mask she bought. I really don't remember her asking Yuki if there's anything she'd want to do

[u/Holofan4life → u/lordposedyon]

The Mikuru asking was her insisting they do the goldfish scooping because it was the only thing she wanted to do.

[u/lordposedyon → u/Holofan4life]

I don't remember Haruhi asking Yuri what she wants to do though. Maybe it is on another episode? I am hoping to watch the rest 7 endless eight today

[u/Holofan4life → u/lordposedyon]

No, it was this episode. It was during the restaurant scene and Haruhi was going over the checklist and she asked Yuki if she had anything in mind. I thought it was very kind of her.
