Haruhi ROCKS (literally and figuratively)

[pacificpikachu]

I just watched about a two and a half minute clip of the Haruhi concert from episode 12 (the fansub isn't out 'til tomorrow, though), and that's it. I'm converting to Haruhiism. I'm a full-out Harutard now. I'm seriously in LOVE with this show. You'd better watch out, because I'll convert you, too, and no one can deny the awesomeness that is Haruhiism.

Plus, Aya Hirano is an awesome singer, and Yuki on guitar in her witch costume just WINS and the animation and attention to detail is amazing and no matter how many times I watch the concert it makes me smile really really big. Kind of like the ending theme (which I just downloaded a Euro Mix of), only it's a completely different type of smile. I want an OST so sooo badly.

I can't WAIT for episode 12 tomorrow! :3

Let's see... I was working at my Mom's friend Mary Ann's house yesterday for about three and a half hours. I thought it was going to be boring, but it actually ended up being a lot of fun! I basically have to take pictures of things she wants sold on eBay and Craig's List and then create listings for them, and I also made a flyer for the horse she's selling. I actually wish I could have done it longer--not for the money (though that's definitely a nice bonus--I made $40), just because it's fun. I brought the chickadees with me and they sat in her bathroom and I went to feed them every half-hour. Mary Ann actually got a call about the piano we listed on Craig's List like...forty-five minutes after we listed it. It was pretty awesome.

The rest of the day, I just sat around and did random things, like read Anbus on ff_anbu (several were hysterical), read Death Note Vol. 5, and feed the chickadees. I don't know, I don't think I did a lot.

Today, I've essentially been fantarding over Haruhi since this morning when I saw the concert clip. XD;; I've been saving Haruhi pictures, wallpapers, icons, music, the entirity of the novel, games, scrambling through merchandise (I want the T-shirt and the armband!), and reading all the information I can find about it. It's quite fun. :D

I also...er...wait, that's about it. ^^;;

You can send it to me sometime. XD

I'm actually planning on burning the first twelve episodes for you tomorrow and sending them with your birthday package. That means it's definitely going to be late, though... I hope you don't mind. ^^;;

Yay! I don't mind at all. ^^;

After looking up a bit about Haruhi, it doesn't seem like the kind of anime you'd like, but I really wouldn't know. The girl doesn't seem very melancholy, either. XD

Okay! I'm going to burn it tomorrow once the episode 12 fansub is released. So, I'm going to try my best to mail it tomorrow provided I can get to the post office and such. Otherwise, it'll simply be as soon as I can. ^^;

That's exactly what I thought when I first saw pictures from it and such. I decided to give it a try just because, though, and...WOW, that show is wonderful. It's funny, because it seems like a slice-of-life comedy at first, but then it turns into this weird, multilayered Sci-Fi story that has a lot of interesting implications and ideas in it. It's very complex, really--people like to say it's the next Eva. ^^; The thing with it, though, is all the really complex, interesting details worth noting are subtle--you could easily watch this show on just a fairly shallow level.

The other nice thing about it is it's really, really well-done. It's well-written, extremely entertaining, the animation is top-notch (especially in some scenes... *Phew*), the art itself is pretty and well-drawn, the music is fitting and fun, the characters are wonderful and very likeable, and it's just...you have to watch it get the appeal. XD;;
