Haruhi Second Season Airs with Rerun

TV stations have now not only confirmed that the “new” season of Haruhi will start with a rerun, but also that it will amount to 28 episodes, finally confirming the “new episodes mixed in with or ont the end of the old episodes” theory.
Fans rejoice at the news, although they must by now be wary of unpleasant surprises…
As usual Haruhi-based news arrives in spurts: first, we heard that the title of the first episode aired would be the same as that from the original broadcast.
Now we hear that unofficial confirmation (it seems possible Kadokawa has ordered stations to hold back details) from TV stations, Saitama TV and Chiba TV, suggests the show will air in two “cours”, or seasons, and constitute 28 episodes, being treated as a “new” programme.
With the original coming in at 14 episodes, the only logical conclusion (not that logic has much place in Haruhi marketing) is that the additional 14 episodes will be the newly produced second season, and will either follow directly on from the broadcast, or be interspersed with the old episodes.
Via your friendly neighbourhood otaku.
This all seems an astonishing way of marketing your top franchise…

I don't believe you.
lol, at least this is something good to hear
I knew my supposed "naive optimism" would pay off eventually. Finally, time to enjoy something new.
k, wat?
k-on and Harihi and same time, hmm cant believe, but waiting
Haha, fools. I know if I gave a damn I wouldn't patronize them, but I didn't in the first place, so whatever.
That's some dammed screwed up marketing.
Carelessness? Or an intentional hit to the already crippled fanbase? Take your pick.
What's this? 2 KyoAni anime airing at the same time? Hmmm...
...Hurray?! :}
It is not the first time for KyoAni to air two titles simultaneously.
Mu-chan, yoshi yoshi...
(let's see who gets that...)
pretty sure everybody gets it, considering how much coverage SC has given to it.
What?
Suzumiya Haruhi-chan no Yuuutsu.
Incredulity of the Troll:
But a Troll, one of the Anonymous , called Anon, it was not with them when Haruhi was present.
They told him, the other Haruhist's:
--We have seen new chapters!!--
He said:
--If I don't see in my tv the sign of the SOS Brigade and I put my finger in the place of the rec button, and put my hand in the new episodes on the screen, I won't believe.--
Eight days later were another time their haruhist's inside, and with them Anon. Haruhi arrived, being the tv turned on, she was among them and said:
--Are you retarted.--
Then she said to Anon:
--Can't you tell? It's my SOS Brigade emblem again!
Then Anon said to her:
--My Lady and my God!--
Haruhi said:
--Because you have seen me, Anon, believe, blessed are those who are not Haruhist's and yet have believed.--
Gospel of Lulz 20:24-29
HELL, ITS ABOUT TIME!
good, now i can see haruhi in hi-res
There should be a new dance craze for this or I'm not watching it XD
Will they're be Gundams? IS SETSUNA IN THIS?! XD
Great if its a new season, but ill believe it when theirs fansubs
Yes. Now watch!
IN BEFORE CLIP SHOW
Bullshit. After all we've been through, I HIGHLY doubt they are going to release the second season. As somebody else mentioned, two reruns, one chronologically.
WTF.....eh, might as well enjoy it
This, a thousand times this. I don't give a fuck about Kadokawa's insanity; if the show's good, then it's good. If it's not, it's not. It's not like they're somehow hurting me personally with this ill-advised mind-screw marketing.
YATTA!!! HARUHI BANZAI!!!
I'll believe this when, and only when, I have the first episode of the new season subbed, downloaded, and watched. Even while downloading I'm still going to be half expecting it all to be a lie.
Only makes me dislike Kadokawa more. What is WITH them?
None of their idiotic marketing schemes are remotely interesting, they should just produce and show the shows like everyone else does. I mean, who the hell do they think they are?
*Bangs forehead on table repeatedly until the 15th episode shows up*
Another rerun -> *Repeats procedure until all 28 episodes are over*
Bah, screw Kadokawa.
I'm boycotting the new season, IF there is one (...for as long as I can until my willpower gives in).
Actually, they'd like that, since I have to download each episode to watch it anyway...
...So, I'll watch it downloaded, but I won't buy the DVDs then!
April Fools?
My birthday's this month. God's second coming is this month or so. Best time of my life (not sad at all).
You guys do realize that if this turns out to be true then more than half of the "trolled" instances were really just information leaks that they covered up because they wanted this to be a surprise because it's fucking Haruhi. Meaning no body was really trolled at all.
Oh wait, what am I saying? It's cooler to hate on things, right? It's what everyone else is doing so I have to join in. Please, forgive me. What I meant was...
LOL HARUHI SUCKS. I can't beleieve peoples still watch this horrible show. It wasnt even good to begin with. It was horrible. That's why it wa sso popular. Becasue popular things are the things that are the suck. That is the lrogical conclusion. LOL TROLLED I HATE HARUHI I"M BURNGING MY NOVEL AND DVDS FUCK THIS TUCK FIROLL.
Here's to hoping it isn't epic fail.
SO AWESOME!!!!! FINALLY!! <3333
I want to believe!
the truth is out there...
bad move.They should've done this eons ago.
lol so much distrust around here,where is the love-love for SOS-dan guys?
Seriously i really like to believe in this new but it seem kinda of hard after all trolling we have been though

would it be that sighs 1-4, boredom, and someday in the rain are also new works?
Boredom and someday in the rain aint new, but sighs 1-4 indeed are
but thats only 26 episodes
Nope, sorry, not trolling me again.
but i wouldnt want to watch it as haruhi-chan, that shit sucks. they'd have to make it normal...
So where's the source of this news? Even on Haruhi's Website they are still saying it is still 14 episodes and the fanclub news mail haven't sent me anything about it...
Haruhi
wait and see, I'll keep my enthusiasm at sea level so if this trun out to be a hoax,it won't backfire much.
don't get your hopes too high. it'll just make the fall more painful.
you people really gonna believe this load of crap?
seriously???
So... does this mean Kadokawa and Tanigawa settled?
I was under the impression Tanigawa wanted his royalties under his old contract increased due to the popularity explosion of the series. Was this resolved?
with all the negative publicity prior, i somehow can't get excited with the fact there is indeed going to be new haruhi episodes.
the way they kept fans guessing if the airing is going to be a re-run is like the worst possible marketing strategy ever.
if they were going to show the old eps alongside the new ones they should have dammed just announce it normally.
I bet my ass that Kadokawa ist going to reair the reairing so...
old season (14) + old season (14) = 24
kthxbye
I lol'd at this
14 + 14 equals 24 now? Wow.
this would make no sense at all, at all
he said before that a second season will air, everybody was expecting airs in the schedulled date, but instead he says the old season will re-run, he didn't lied, the second season was already planned.
