Cake Haruhi aka adult Haruhi

18 for season 1, 21-22 for season 2.

Looks like she goes barhopping and picking up strangers a lot.

das Finale part 6 will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the franchise

I was about 16, but I watched it about a year after it aired, all at once (in broadcast order) so I was 17 when I saw it. I remember starting to read the LNs on Baka-Tsuki during AP Chemistry on the school computers since we were left to our own devices a lot. I failed that AP test but I don't blame Haruhi for that.
Only S2.

Disgusting

Based boomer.

I wasn't born yet

Could I get a rundown about LN's Haruhi? Whan happened after anime? Is the LN ending?

Haruhi looks like THAT? Maybe she isn't so bad after all.

2006? I was 13 in 2006. Damn.

You're like 23. Try again in a decade or so.

I was 16. I'm not in the U.S., and back then people here didn't use to download as much anime, everybody was still only watching what we had on TV. I remember Haruhi and Death Note changed that, people were really getting into anime cause of those two.

2006? God dangit I'm still 2 years old back then~ :Oo

Mootxico, before that our shitty excuses for anime cons you wouldn't really hear people talk about currently airing shows. But then right after Haruhi came out, woo brother, everybody was downloading the newest episodes week after week.

This is what we have to share the board with. Embarassing

18

I didn't know there were 12 volumes, I thought there were only 10? Or is this the manga or something?

did you expect the original crowd to stay here till they're 80 and die or something?

Pretty similar here in the US, too. I remember my first con I went to, AX 2006, there were a lot of cosplayers of older popular shows like Hellsing, Pokemon, Excel Saga, etc, but not that much currently airing stuff. Lots of MMO cosplay too, like RO. After that, though, it seemed like there was more awareness of the latest shows that were airing.

That cake Haruhi, Jesus.

I remember when this was all Yea Forums would talk about, and then Kyo Ani and the author shit the bed separately. Fucking endless eight and LN in limbo...

Wasn't moot 16 back in 2006?

>Cake

Oh nice, I wish I'd been going to Anime Expo since so long, only been 3 times myself, 2015, 2017, and 2018.
I recall not having watched the first episode since people here were all weirded out about it and had to wait until a friend watched the 2nd one and told me it was a real anime and not just some weird parody. There were folks here that had read the books already and told everybody to just keep watching, Yea Forums has always been a pretty high level place, huh.

You guys said that about Oreki, so I don't believe you.

13 years old. What's the OP pic about?

Why are her tits so big?

I was 20 when it aired, and I had already been on Yea Forums for two years by then, so I also took part in the hype leading up to the series airing.
It’s still one of my favorite anime, and I have rewatched it several times, and have consumed every conceivable form of haruhi media, from character songs to audio books etc.

As much as I want the series to continue, after seeing full metal panic sigma, I think it’s for the best that it just remains as is.
airing order is still the best way to watch season 1

15. Still haven't watched it.

She's a mother of 5 children.

14 when it started airing and 15 when it finished (season 1).

I didn't watch it until I was 18.

Oh, man those character songs. Yuki's are the best overall, and the Kyon ones always crack me up. Cool Edition (Ryoko's) is one of my favorite songs from the series.

12

Because Kyon likes 'em big, duh.

Apparently Haruhi chan is ended? And theres another new short story included in the final volume?

Sad to think that Haruhi on Yea Forums is so dead that I didnt hear about this despite that guy spamming that "is it still good" thread the past couple of weeks. If s3 came out now Yea Forums probably wouldn't even care

Same Oh didn’t read the latest posts when posting my reply. Yeah I can confirm that haruhi was a game changer (I’m from Europe), it singlehandedly made a huge push to make anime more mainstream, and suddenly it was more hip and cool to keep tabs on the latest and greatest anime series instead of the classics. It was also at the time that people began to notice the whole web culture and that akihabara was a thing etc.
A perfect storm actually.
Oh yeah don’t forget that haruhi had a lot of viral marketing beforehand both up to airing and leading up to the English dub release.

8. Had no idea what Haruhi or anime was back then. Thought Beyblade and Yugioh were just regular cartoons.

I was 13 and thought it looked like gay, unfunny shit. I then watched it and found out I was entirely correct in that assessment.

I think starting high school, I bought the first North American DVD volume with the big box that had the Hare Hare Yukai CD and all the extra shit probably for like $60-70. Because of all the hype I heard from anime magazines and websites. Was disappointed in everything but episode 0 but still completed the box hoping it’d get better...and now at least a decade later I’m selling the whole thing for $25. Sad.

Each volume had a big expensive aniplex-tier box like this, I’m pretty sure. So some poor sobs have four of this bricks on their shelf.

Also, I didn't need to mention it before, but I too have had one of those lucrative careers for a while now as well. But fun things somehow remain to be fun.

If you manage all those things in the next 1.5 years I'll be very impressed. But chances are however, time will go faster than you expect and you won't have achieved half of what you hoped to. Best of luck though.

I used to laugh at oldfags too but now I'm coming up 22 and becoming ever more jaded and disillusioned with the younger posters it's becoming ever more apparent that I'll be here well into my 30s. That is assuming this place still exists by then.

Is this what boomers feels towards millennials? I feels people born in year 2000s are young but they're actually young adult now.

No, because there's a generation in between boomers and millennials and there's not a generation between us and the zoomers. And there's not a technological gap between us, because both our generations grew up with the internet and computers, while most boomers didn't.

Wait is Haruhi still ongoing? Has the author just not published the final novel?

I'd have done that but I hate a fair chunk of the posters in Haruhi threads.

What's the watch order for Haruhi? Since I was 6 when it came out, it honestly didn't interest me that much at the time

she looks more like 20-25

Are you inept with smartphones? Because that's the difference between a boomer and even about half of Gen X.

2000's eternal newfag here. I think I lurked for about one year and read up on the site history before I made my first post.

Broadcast order. After you're done, read the summary of the episodes in chronological order just to get an idea of when it all takes place, but the real experience is broadcast order.

Adult Haruhi is absurdly hot, wow.

What happened to character songs? Most popular anime used to have them.

It's not about competence with the technology. People who have had 24/7 mobile internet access and modern social media all their lives grew up in an entirely different world compared to anyone who was older by the time smartphones were widely available.

It's been awhile since I've read them, but here's the highlights I can remember. Asahina get's her own arc in book 7, In book 8 the characters all write their own short stories and you get to read some of them. And the last 3 volumes are a long arc involving a new character. I can't remember enough of what happened to really describe any of the arc, but I thought it was pretty good back then.

21

It's a really strange situation to be in. I've had to explain the concept of renting movies physically and that the memory card sticking out of my PS2 only stores saves, not the entire game, to a pretty sharp kid I know who's around 14 these days. There's always going to be differences between age groups but the gap between today's 15 year olds and today's 20 year olds is probably one of the most pronounced in history.

I think it was autumn of 2007 and I was 22 then.

As special bonus items, the volume comes with a newly-written short story by Tanigawa, as well as illustrations by the novel illustrator Noizi Ito and the manga illustrator Gaku Tsugano.

>The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi-chan was serialized in KADOKAWA's Monthly Shonen Ace from July 2007 to December 2018. It was also adapted into a 25-episode short net animation on YouTube by Kyoto Animation, the company worked on the main Haruhi anime series, in 2009.

>While its main novel series in Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko has been on hiatus for eight years since 2011, most recently, a 120-page short story "Nanafushigi Overtime" (Seven Wonders Overtime) written by Tanigawa was published in the 30th anniversary special issue of KADOKAWA's light novel magazine The Sneaker released in October 2018.
