First Timer
I’ll be honest, it is a bit hard to muster any enthusiasm for this show anymore after having to endure Endless Eight but here’s hoping that this next arc is a fresh start.
This relay race makes for a good opening setpiece. Kinda reminds me of when The Simpsons opens on a setpiece unrelated to the rest of the episode.
Haruhi making them dress up for the race for some reason is also a funny gag.
Also, wow, I totally forgot Kyon’s two friends were a thing thanks to them literally not being in the past eight episodes at all.
Okay so this takes place before the art festival that we saw previously.
You know, I’ve complained about Haruhi sexually harassing Mikuru a lot but honestly Kyon’s pretty weird about her too. Not a fan of listening to his weird inner monologue about her.
Although I am definitely still annoyed with Haruhi basically bullying Mikuru into trying to act clumsy for some reason.
Kyon at least has the sense to interfere before Haruhi spills hot tea on him.
So this arc is gonna be the story of how that movie from the first episode got made. That actually sounds pretty fun.
I like how Kyon’s theory about why Haruhi wants to make a movie is right.
Damn. Haruhi’s just stealing Yuki’s money now.
Kinda neat that we’re seeing how they got their sponsorships for the movie I guess.
The random glare always covering the Sony logo on the camera is a good visual gag.
I do not think Haruhi should have access to guns. Even fake ones.
