The news that the “Haruhi TV Anime” was set to air in April, thought by all to be either the long awaited second series or an almost unbelievably perverse marketing stunt, in fact does turn out to be a carefully worded piece of deception: it refers only to a rerun of the previously aired first season of Haruhi
Fans are predictably outraged, though it remains to be seen whether they will finally abandon the series, or will merely grumble and obediently commence purchasing should a new series actually emerge.
The dread confirmation emerged after direct enquiries to Kadokawa, which drew official confirmation that it was merely their grandiose way of pulling in the punters to view their repeat airing.
Strange that they wouldn’t bother to mention the fact that the new airing was a repeat of the first season in any of their material?
Their use of just “TV anime” without mentioning the name of the series now seems retrospectively suspect, and their deliberate efforts to incite speculation about the 2nd season, only to then deceive fans with weaselled wording, is surely nothing more than wilful and reprehensible deception.
Is this some disastrous attempt at generating “buzz”, or are their marketing departments entirely staffed by incompetents? Certainly, fans will likely not believe a word they say from here on, and quite sensibly too.
Probably most fans will not care anymore after this latest disappointment, but there is some lingering speculation that a back to back broadcast of the first series followed directly by the second is what is planned – this would mean a summer start for the title.
It would probably be better for fans just to forget this wretched series ever existed and obsess over something else, however.
A bunch of idiots is what you all are. They announced way back when that this was a re-airing of the first season. To expect it to be something else is pathetic. I believe that since it has been so long that they plan to release the old season in order to promote a new season for next year…I could be wrong (and probably am) but this is no reason to be so stupid and blame them for all of your peoples inability to read and research accurately. People have known about this for a couple months already. Uneducated idiots the lot of you.
This is the worst news I’ve had in months. Thanks a lot, you masterful trolls.
I was raging for a moment. But then I thought. Okay. Honestly I’d rather see LIttle Busters! Than Haruhi II.
FFFFFUUUU f♥♥k! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUu
I loved it but now, I will drop this serie! They have outraged me badly!
Fu*ck me for having such high hopes….but i do beleive that there making the second season….i Just hope that it comes soon….
haruhism forever ^^
