The latest and increasingly unawaited novel in the Haruhi series, 涼宮ハルヒの / Suzumiya Haurhi no Kyougaku (The Shock of Suzumiya Haruhi), by 谷川流 / Nagaru Tanigawa, looks to have been delayed yet another year, the second time it has been delayed.
It now looks as if three years will elapse before any new release in the formerly popular series…
Reports indicate that the leaked schedule of light novel releases published in Sneaker magazine fails to make any mention of the title, which can be taken as a tacit admission of delay. Previously the sequel was set for a mid-2007 release, but this was postponed a year.
This means it is likely the series will go three years without a novel release, which should leave no-one in any doubt as to the oblivion facing the series, especially if the anime rerun proves to be mere eventful marketing rather than the dramatic coup Kadokawa is likely hoping for.
Just what the author is thinking is anyone’s guess.
Probably nobody will remember Haruhi by 2010, having forgotten it in a haze of of Mio-induced delirium…

I think how Haruhi end is like this.
This is true ending.
no ending.
that would be sad..., the only thing i am hoping now os that the 10º novel will be the last one, dont give me more shit please
How is this for an ending,Haruhi was in coma and Kyon was her childhood friend. So practically all was just a wierd dream.(Boy that would suck)
no, please not....i read more than 1000 pages per week, i dont want that shit please.....
Shit I don't want to read books from people that don't even have the sympathy of giving me an update of what's really going on.....
Yeah Haruhi's awesome not because of Haruhi's looks but because of the drug-fueled story......
But it's creators are simply insane....
Maybe they want to make a story about their insanity?
OMG...OMG... bitches.... TT... when i saw the notice title i though, "oh, so this bastards will delay the 2º season again"...but no..... it was worse.
FUCK!!!!!!!! o shit, the 9º novel ends in such a cliff hanger and the 10º will be ready on 2010!!!, fuck fuck,ok...i think is time to let it go, no more haruhi for me....fuck ... i even printed the novel ... ok thats it, sorry for my shitty english...fuck.
thanks u
lol 'nuff said.
How can you be sick of a story that has Billion's of possibilities because of the prospect of the character being GOD!!!!???!!!
How many stories can you develop when you're main heroine can create and destroy anything??
Virtually limitless
your* sorry for the typo
No one is listening. Again.
The expected occurence of Haruhi Suzumiya.
*goes back to waiting for Toaru Kagaku no Railgun*
haruhi is a good watch, but its seriously overated, over-hyped and the so called marketing has been 'over-done'....... just give it a rest......
artifact, i will never forget haruhi, not in the face of my beloved second strike witches season. i will not forget haruhi even through all these fantastic (not) articles about moeblob shitfest k-on, and through all the reporting of taiga nopan, haruhi and her lackeys will always still be number one in my ronrey little heart.
Haruwho?...
I think it's time for another Duke Nukem Forever joke. The prospect of Duke Nukem Forever coming out is better than 2nd season of Haruhi, so sad...
Sons of bitches, they need to release this piece of crap already so they can move on to something else... say... Little Busters or Full Metal Panic.
Wait, it's the book being delayed, I'm an idiot.
You know, the author has churned out 9 fucking books for you people. He is having a hard time getting back into it. He's probably sick to death of Haruhi Suzumiya. So he can't come up with something as captivating as what has been done in the past. So he delays it to work it to perfection and get out a novel that he actually feels good about putting out.
In other words. Do you want a good book or do you want shit that not even the author likes?
Plus, you know, he can write whatever the hell he likes whenever the hell he likes. There should be no such obligation if the man wants to go on a damn break after writing so many stories in the series. Hell, I think his break is well deserved. The only problem is that HE went on his break when all of YOU learned about the series from the anime, so you think he is being lazy. Well learn to wait and stop being little kids about it.
well, you are right, after thousands of pages the autor may be tired....so, JUST GIVE IT AN END BITCH, stop trying to gain million of yens or whatever fucking currency u get, and move on, make another book, another history, i be happy to read it if it gets an english version, but if you are going to do such a cliff hanger and then delay it... you are just being a bitch.
i hope kadokawa is the one not letting him finish the serie, maybe for more merchandise or something... i hope, just for the sake of the author.
>Haurhi
> haze of of Mio-induced delirium
Dude, do you read what you write before posting?
He can take as long as he wants, but one warning: he's reaaaally pushing it... Given how some otakus become ultra obsessed I would be careful of going out.
I for one, just want a good novel. If he delayed it because the final draft looked like shit, then by all means he has to do whatever it takes to make it decent. I don't want shit on time if I can have good stuff in a late date.
jajjaj, u are right the poor man is in danger XP... but, does otakus really read the novel??, i though they just see the anime ( most of them).
FANMADE HARUHI ANIME FTW!!!!!
who's haruhi anymore?? pfft.
well.. i could never forget yuki...
Even if it is released, it will never make up for or live up to the hype it's gained over the past 3 years.
I wonder what will happen first, Naruto, Bleach, or One Piece ending...or a new haruhi light novel being released...
God I pray its Naruto XD
Let see
Naruto will be hokage
Luffy will be Pirate king
And Ichigo will be either Itchy or strawberry pantsu
They're probably trying to ease the extreme popularity of Haruhi, too much of it can pose a threat to the 2D industry as a whole; who knows, maybe Kadokawa and the author care about the other animation/manga and novel publishing companies out there struggling to keep themselves alive than greed with more Haruhi sequels and spin-offs.
Another theory would be that they don't know where to go from the first season of the anime or the 9th novel in terms of storyline and plot, didn't the author mention that he was running out of ideas?
Isn't the anime directly based on the light novels? Why would the author have to come up with new ideas to continue that?
and why Kadokawa announces new Haruhi and takes it back?It'll be saying,"...ooops,we lied."Liars always go to hell and back.
We always can read the fakes novels of Haruhi xD
Like the novel 10 titled "The Fuck of Haruhi Suzumiya" currently in emule xD or "The Absolution of Nagato Yuki" or "Kyon name:Path to the Apocalypse"(my favorite xD )
Come on Tanigawa, seriously. I know an artist needs time for his works, but this... Oh well, but I expect it to be REALLY, REALLY good!!!
I am STILL gonna be a Suzumiya fan. :[ Even without a conclusion, it's still amazingly done.
A YEEEEEAAAAARRRRRRRR?!!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!! MY EXPECTATIONS!!!!!!!!! NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! T_T
I'm broken...........................
so when is my turn??
Kadokawa did it again. Haruhi 2nd is only an april mop joke after all.
They don't care what fans want.
Tanigawa is spending his off time writing a Tsukihime like story. Contains full service blood related imouto-tits maid.
Probably churning ideas for Haruhi, just hope it doesn't end up like 12Kingdoms with hiatus oblivion.
Until Haruhi season 2 coming almost every fan will be converted into K-On fans. Goodbye harushi we will miss you.
Gonna hate kadokawa for milking the series till death!
I fill sorry for the fan,again.But considering us Berserk and Guyver fan has to put up to you guy are rather lucky.
He likely never expected Haruhi to be so popular, got caught up in it all, and wrote himself into a corner, like an idiot.
I don't really care all that much about Haruhi, but I cannot stand watching/reading something, and never given a resolution. Even if it's a bad end, I'll take it, just let me move on dammit.
Vol. 9 really doesn't show the signs of being written into a corner. Though you never know, Tanigawa has said that he has no clue what he's doing.
And Haruhi was popular for years before the anime even existed. It was just never popular ENOUGH to really subsume into the collective otaku unconscious.
I don't understand. When the novel's 6/07 release date was canceled, it was considered to have an unannounced release date. How does 'still not announced' = postponed?
It's just Artefact trying to rile up the Haruhi fanbase again.
You're perfectly right. It is "still not announced".
Most of your fellow commentors don't read the articles, just the title.
i wasn't shocked about this probably irritated by its annoyance.Ladies and gentlemen,Haruhi is now dead.Now,we can all smell the daisies while listening to the music of Mio's band and get our lives back....,selling souls to the goddesses is bad thing.
Why the fuck is K-ON so popular? It isn't even that good.
Haruhi at least had likeable male characters and a plot outside LOOK AT CUTE GIRLS DO CUTE THINGS LOL
Er yeah... maybe I should try watching it again, but I could never get past the first 10 minutes of the first episode.
I guess there are people who like their anime to be only moe eye candy.
I wouldn't have guessed it was Naruko. Now we need more doujins.
actually, he is still writing. Just that there is no compilation of the works that is produced in sneakers.
Considering that the first book was compiled after they finished publishing the series in a weird sequence in Sneakers (the anime followed this weird sequence), I don't really found this suprising.
I'll remember, I'll always remember.
After all, saying "Suzumiya Haruhi is mai waifu" isn't just something you can throw around, those words come with an oath, an oath not so easily broken.
assholes. lol.
