This long take is perhaps the best moment in the series I live for this. Probably the most direct reference to Tsai Ming-Liang in the whole show

I feel like after this scene, no-one should have been surprised by E8.

That was nicely animated little shiver there by Kyon. I like when these shows go out of their way to capture tricky or subtle motions like that. Part of the reason I love Mushishi so loving much is that it's constantly doing subtle or tricky little animations like that.

I never really liked that episode, but I think that stems from unfortunately experiencing it in chronological order the first time round

I love it, and I think it is an excellent lead into Disappearance, but it loses a lot of impact after watching Endless 8, which is basically a summer flavored 3 hour version of this episode

I liked that episode. It was cute and well shot/animated - even considering the Shot in the middle of it.

All right, and now it's time to get Melancholy again.

I can't even imagine watching this is chronological order, or even knowing what the chronological order is the first time you watch it

So, might Haruhi be feeling...Melancholy?

This is less Melancholy and more nihilistic, actually.

Hah. Neat little chronology gag. Haruhi complains about wanting AC immediately after an episode about fetching a heater.

Also, clearly Haruhi is just frustrated because she doesn't realize she's actually crushing on Mikuru rather than Kyon. :spergin:

I'm really glad I didn't watch this is chronological order, because there's clues and visual/writing gags everywhere making it obvious that the episodes were meant to be viewed in this order, rather than being scrambled after the fact.

God Kyon is a champ. I mean, he's freaking out a little, but I would be incoherent by this point and he's still mostly cool.

Also, is Asakura another robot?
