After their jolly little marketing jape to drum up a storm of conversation amongst the sad remnants of Haruhi’s fanbase, Kadokawa have graciously deigned to broadcast Haruhi-chan on YouTube after all.
You can view the first episode of Haruhi-chan here, and in quality subs here (running for only 5 minutes you may find the fuss to have not been worth the wait).
Episode one of Churuya-san resides here (running for an even briefer 2 minutes). English version here.
Fans will doubtless want to savour the seven minutes of actual content, for who knows when Kadokawa will decide to release the next episodes…
The actual content of Haruhi-chan is somewhat disappointing – the manga was excellent, but the first episode does not seem to quite capture this. Churuya-san is on the other hand is mildly charming, but so brief as to not make too great an impression.
Haruhi-ists will just have to put with this until their precious rerun arrives…

As a web-animation that was pretty decent. Hell, I'd be amazed if they bothered to make this Candy Boy level when it clearly wasn't needed.
And at least the subs were better than what Gonzo offered with Strike Witches.
It's pretty clear that Artefact hates Haruhi and anything related to it, so wouldn't it be better to make posts about something else? It's not like there aren't any other shows or news to discuss that aren't posted at all.
He's tsundere for the franchise, trust me.
Anonymous is momentarily satisfied.
i never read the manga
but i thought tha anime of haruhi-chan was quite entertaining and funny
Well, as for myself, i thoroughly enjoyed it, wasn't expecting much though, so it was great in my book. The churuya wasn't as amusing.
the jokes are kinda random
Honestly, it wasn't all that good. The original Churuya 4-koma was decent because it had a sort of weirdness to it, but as a cutesy anime it doesn't really work.
As someone who has long since given up on Haruhi, it was alright. I'd be pissed if it was that kind of quality for a 30 minute episode, but considering I wasn't doing fuck all else, I can think of worse ways to waste 5 minutes.
I'm very glad that they put in english subs(even if they're not great). I'm quite pleased!
Motaku96 IS pleased.
That 5 minute short was one of the goddamn stupidest things I've ever seen. I seriously want to beat the crap out of whoever made it.
Haruhi-chan was kinda meh imo. But Churuya was basically an animated 4koma, which translated fairly well. Poor Churuya kept getting owned.
That was pretty nice, Haruhi-chan was amusing, but idk...Churuya-san was kind of bland...probably because it was LOL...
and that makes me sad because I really liked the 4koma Churuya....
When will they just release the second season of the original anime?
I'm tired of waiting and this video just made me want it even more. :(
The novels are excellent though and I'm currently waiting for the 10th one which looks like it will ACTUALLY be released soon.

the vids are gone.
haruhi-chan looks kinda retarded -___- the original suzumiya haruhi no yuutsu is best
I actually liked both... Osaka voice for Churuya was great, though not what I had expected.
Will continue watching...
Hey, I loved it. Was funny.
WTF did I just watch?
Motaku96 should be pleased.
As I've stated in a previous comment, Sankaku has yet to provide any textual evidence of Kadokawa's alleged confirmation of a rerun. None of the Newtype scans previously provided strongly support this claim, and a link to J-Cast's article on the subject in a previous posting was misinterpreted -- in fact, J-Cast stated that they weren't able to obtain a direct confirmation of content from Kadokawa.
本当に「ハルヒ」の新作が放送されるのか ... 角川側では今のところ発表は一切していないという
"Is a new Haruhi anime really being broadcast? ... Kadokawa [say to us] that they are not making any such announcement."
The only one misinterpreting anything is you - every single Japanese source interprets this as a re-run. Why? Because they say so:
TVアニメ「涼宮ハルヒの憂鬱」、改めてテレ玉ほか独立U局などで4月から放送開始決定
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/wp-content/gallery/misc-images-xvi/haruhi-shock.jpg
The original text of the J-Cast article was:
それでは本当に「ハルヒ」の新作が放送されるのか、同作品の広報を担当している角川書店アニメーショングループにJ-CASTニュースが取材したところ、角川側では今のところ発表は一切していないという。
そして、4月からの放送については、「再放送です。『テレ玉』などのU局を中心に放送します」ということだった。「ハルヒ」の新作が見られるのはまだ先になりそうだ。
It presently reads:
それでは本当に「ハルヒ」の新作が放送されるのか、同作品の広報を担当している角川書店アニメーショングループにJ-CASTニュースが取材したところ、角川側では今のところ発表は一切していないという。
ただし、アニメ業界関係者によれば、４月からの放送は、今までに放送したものを改めて放送する、とのことのようで、「ハルヒ」の新作が見られるのはまだ先になりそうだ。
Note the difference.
How does "今までに放送したものを改めて放送する" translate to anything but "broadcasting once again that which has been broadcast before"? Similarly, doesn't "「ハルヒ」の新作が見られるのはまだ先になりそうだ。", which - I hasten to add- remained unchanged in both former and present version, mean "It looks like it's going to be quite some time still before we can see any NEW Haruhi production." (emphasis mine)?
Furthermore, what colour is the sky on your planet?
The original text:
"私はばかではない"。
It presently reads:
私はばかだ
Note the difference.
"角川側では今のところ発表は一切していないという"
"Presently, Kadokawa-side refuses to make a statement."
"TVアニメ「涼宮ハルヒの憂鬱」、改めてテレ玉ほか独立U局などで4月から放送開始決定"
"It has been decided that TV Anime "The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi" will be broadcasted anew by Tele-Tama and other independent broadcast networks starting in April."
改めて = anew. Even if it's taken to mean "もう一度", that doesn;t necessarily indicate a repeat.
放送開始 = begin broadcast.
再放送 = rerun. Which doesn't appear in the second statement.
The J-Cast Article states explicitly that it *can't* confirm whether it's a rerun, and that Kadokawa refuses to make a statement at this time. *Not* that Kadokawa is stating, "No, we aren't saying that we're broadcasting a new season."
I really have no intention of wasting any more time on this:

Yes, you can also find a few reports which ponder the wording (Gigazine for example).
The chance of this typical Kadokawa ambiguous wording being anything but marketing games is probably low enough to be discounted with the information available. If it does show up then that will make an interesting story.
beggar shouldn't be picky.It is free and I like it.
I too enjoyed it very much :3
Ugh, too 3D for me. Lazy-ass quality, I hope they're using their whole spring budget making the real haruhi season 2. I doubt it.
It's a pity they put up that Nice Boat II video only for a while before releasing the real thing.
They should have put that for another full day or so and pissed off another half of the fandom.
Terrible quality. Are they expecting Haruhi fans to sink to a new low?
By the way the picture is kinda funny in it's own way. You can picture Haruhi as Kadokawa and Mikuru as the fans. Go figure.
LoL...except the fans fight back...sometimes...maybe...possibily???
Hopefully that's the case but I somehow get the premonition that fans will rave over it despite the poor quality.
Smoked Cheese Nyooorroooooooo~nnn.
Rejoice!
You left out the Haruhi-chan OP Arty, it's a different video (presumably for bandwidth concerns):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9Lj0lF9Lao
Amazingly poor quality on that.
For that matter, a brief look at the beautifully typeset subs showed a number of spelling errors...
And they did a terrible job translating. Who the hell translates it into this crap? Spelling errors, shitty translation, and crap quality. Whats next?
Dude. You got a translation done by native Japanese-speakers. In less than a day.
Be thankful there's subs in the first place.
Now a glint of hope for the fans is seen:
"They might do the same thing for season 2 and show it instead of the rerun."
Don't come crying if it doesn't happen, though.
oh yes.
Well I didn't liked the Haruhi-chan clip, Kyon was just boring. Nagato brief appeareance was great and the best part was obviously Haruhi abusing Mikuru.
In the other hand, Churuya-san was great and very funny, although too short of course, but 5 minutes of smoked cheese would have ruined the joke anyway.
Don't get them started again.
Oh its ok artefact, The fans have already lost much patience/hope/dignity, so a little more gasoline to the fire wont even dent the surge.
Lets all pour more gasoline on the fire :D
BURN BURN!!! BWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
It really doesn't matter. I've gotten off the train as a fan and rather just watching this as just another anime. Both of them pretty much sucked except for Haruhi and Mikuru with the counting sheep.
The manga is better? I must get it.
See some of it here:

Ah... Thanks but, I have not reached the level whr I can read manga without translation ^^;
