/images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif There's been so much good news of late, I feel a little overwhelmed! How am I expected to complain about stuff on this forum when I'm feeling so good?
Thus faithful fans of the series have finally been blessed with a new season and have a new reason to live. In all seriousness this is definitely good news. It will be interesting to see which parts of the novel they cover this time around.

Oh well, only thing to complain about it is that it will take a a little less than a year. IT was expected with them making Kanon and they probably already had a second project already shceduled after Kanon. So the next thing was more Haruhi goodness.

But if it's truly going to be, then I couldn't be any happier! I love this show, and have been wanting more since I finished watching it. My Fan Book should be here any day now. /images/graemlins/happy.gif

<font color="red">FUCK. YES.</font> ::haruhigasms::
My absolute, run-away, no contest whatsoever, all time favorite show is coming back for more.
As for more ZnT... good. That show had 12 fantastic episodes. I know I'm in the minority with just how much I hated the last episode, but a second season is fantastic news. Hopefully they can redeem themselves, and finally address all the issues the first season started to touch. I look forward to it.
Anyway, back to the real news... while we all knew they had to eventually do a second season of Haruhi because it is so popular and because there's still story left to be told, it is still completely awesome to hear for real. A time frame is even better. KyoAni is putting out a fantastic product right now with Kanon, and while I know nothing about that next project that they have planned for after it, I'm sure that will be a lot of fun as well. But just knowing more Haruhi is coming... ah it makes the next year worth living =P
And I am once again oh so glad I've held off reading the novels. I'd much rather my first experience with the material be at the hands of sexy, awesome, amazing Kyoto Animation. Mmmmmmmmmmm~. Take me, I'm all yours, Haruhi.

With my awesome Japanese skills (read: almost none) I can generally see that this is talking about a "second" or "next" or "sequal" Haruhi and how it's scheduled for next fall, but what's the "再来年予定*ったのが" part? "再来年" appears to be sarainen, or "year after next" and "予定" refers to plans/schedule/whatever... so is there something about the year after next they mention?

What? They have 3 whole novels of main plot along with plenty more "Fumoffu" type stories left to be animated. And since they could draw out Owaru Day by Day into a whole 13 episode season (TSR) and make it utterly awesome, that's 3 half seasons of material at the very least.

Ahaha, yeah. "Kazeyomi Ribbon" (OP) is a really good song that's grown on me as I listen to the ED single CD. "Welcome UNKNOWN" (ED) is... well, I feel like it would be a much better song without the rediculous background vocals XD The instrumental version isn't half bad though.
Kazeyomi Ribbon could make for a good new OP, but I hope they create a new ED.

This news makes me wonder what type of order the new series will play out in. It'd be neat if Mikuru got her own order and did the previews (or was at least included in them).
As a side note, I think the fact that Zero no Tsukaima is getting a second season should be added to the title.

You know, as much as the original broadcast order defined the first season and was one of the primary ingredients in making the show so special... ...well, if they're just going to piss that away when they release the DVDs like they did with season one, I'd rather they just do chronological order to begin with during broadcast and spare us the drama/tease. I still don't like the fact that someone seeing it for the first time on R1 DVD will probably be getting a very, very different experience than I did. I adored what I saw, and I want others to experience and enjoy the same thing... but I've weighed in on that issue many times. All I want to say here is, pick one thing KyoAni, develop the show around that, and stick to it. Just... stick to it. Don't create needless differences.

When I watched the series, I watched it in chronological order. When things are out of order like the original intention, it just throws me right off. So I really enjoyed my experience, even though I do agree that the intended ending would have been a bit more enticing, had I seen it last.
Otherwise, I watched it in chronological order, and I still love it. Definitely in my Top 5. Though I think that if they are going to make the new season, just go ahead and do it in the chronological order. Unless they're going to do stuff that'll mingle with the first season. Now that would be a real mindbender. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Okay, I'm not trying to pick on anyone or anything, but I'm honestly baffled every time this sort of "chronological order first" reasoning comes up. How do any of you people handle flashbacks? Prequels? The juxtaposition of varying time frames is just about the most common literary device I can think of. I've never seen it done without purpose, and to violate the creator's intentions in such a way seems no different to me than picking out every third chapter in a random book, reading those first, and then reading the rest. I can understand doing something like this after first experiencing the intended narrative, so as to enjoy the story from a fresh perspective, but when you do it during the initial viewing, aren't you tainting your own perceptions? You're creating an experience that is very much different from the one everyone else perceives.
I'll grant that the order in the novels is different than that of the anime, but despite sharing the same story, they are entirely different products. To say otherwise is to discount all the work done by the anime staff to recreate that story in another medium. When you butcher the viewing order the first time through, it's almost as if you're saying you know better how to create the show itself. I personally couldn't do that to any creation worthy of respect.
This issue makes me very confused.

So tell me how I viewed it, is any different than how the DVDs have been released? From what I've read here, they've been released in Chronological Order as well. So if someone is watching it for the first time on DVD, aren't they also seeing it in a way that it was not intended?

But remember that anyone buying the DVDs in Japan is very, very likely to have seen it on TV first in it's first, very intentionally not chronological, order. I still think it's problematic to do that (reorder them) in Japan, but not too horribly so. Fans more or less all experienced the show the first time in mixed order.
That simply can't be compared to a hypothetical R1 release, where people who don't watch the show through other means don't have that "initial viewing vs DVD viewing" concept, since DVD would be the ONLY viewing (and almost certainly in chronological order, sadly.)

Well, for me it's more about first experience. You'll never "see it for the first time" ever again and that means you and I experienced much of the show in a very different way. The conclusion of the Yuuutsu episodes would, of course, be the most profoundly obvious example. That just sort of seems like a shame to me, because I loved what I saw and want to share it with others... ::shrugs::
It's not the end of the world or anything though, because as you said, the show is so rediculously strong that it holds up amazingly either way. It's just... ...well whatever, I'm obviously very passionate about the issue, but I'll ditch the preaching now, you've all heard it a dozen times. As long as someone comes away a fan, that's what matters most, and I can mostly put aside my personal feelings in that case, I guess.

Let's hope so, the other dance was catchy.
I still don't get it. I suppose I should have thrown the question "Why?" into my first post. I'm really not trying to spark the debate over which order is "correct", but simply asking why anyone would go out of their way to deliberately alter their own viewing experience. To me, it's almost a foreign concept and I haven't heard an answer yet that makes sense.
I guess I'm going to have to learn to ignore it. I'll mark it down as one of the quirks of the community that I don't understand and simply leaves me scratching my head.
Thanks for allowing me to indulge my curiosity.

Awesome news! More Haruhi is fantastic.
That pretty much tells us that Lucky Star (which is Kyani's next project) is going to be a 13 episode run. Kanon will end in late spring leaving just enough time for them to run a half season show before doing a season 2 of Haruhi. Awesome news if it's true though since I thought the Lucky Star information meant we wouldn't see more Haruhi next year. Of course Kyani could just contradict me by doing more than one project at once, but they've never done so before.

Lucky...Star...? Based on what I read about it on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucky_%E2%98%86_Star), it looks like it will be a KyoAni version of AzuDai. Well, you know what I mean. It definately looks like something to look forward to. At least to hold us over until Haruhi makes a comeback. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

That pretty much tells us that Lucky Star (which is Kyani's next project) is going to be a 13 episode run. Kanon will end in late spring leaving just enough time for them to run a half season show before doing a season 2 of Haruhi. Awesome news if it's true though since I thought the Lucky Star information meant we wouldn't see more Haruhi next year. Of course Kyani could just contradict me by doing more than one project at once, but they've never done so before.

The concept of combining the vibes of both Azudai and Haruhi together by Kyani could very well produce an anime that's better than either and a whole lot of fun to watch.

What? They have 3 whole novels of main plot along with plenty more "Fumoffu" type stories left to be animated. And since they could draw out Owaru Day by Day into a whole 13 episode season (TSR) and make it utterly awesome, that's 3 half seasons of material at the very least.

4 main plot line novels actually, with the problem being that three of them are considerably unfriendly to being adapted to anime since they run continuously and do not have any kind of neat cutoff points where an anime adaption could end the way Owaru Day by Day did.

The problem with flashbacks isn't that they're not interesting or don't convey important information or character development--it's that they destroy the narrative momentum. You're cruising along going "Yeah, yeah, what happens next, what happens next?" and suddenly everything comes to a squealing halt while we learn the tearjerker of a story that explains why character X is so god-damned emo.
That said, Haruhi's shattered presentation is fucking brilliant.

Heh I take it someone complained in between when I read your initial post and this revised post.
Just a couple small points... First is, well, that I never asked. So responding to my post wasn't necessary, because someone else asked =P I very, very purposely never ask anything like that (or anything else), because I don't want to know either way, important or not, spoiler tagged or not. I know you probably just responded to the most recent post, but well, don't =P Heh.
Secondly, is that even when the answer is "it isn't important/it doesn't happen/they don't say", some of us don't need or want that as an answer either. I'd rather find out in the course of watching that 'x' isn't important or 'y' doesn't happen or 'z' is irrelevant to the plot. Let the people who are being paid tell the story. It's KyoAni's job and responsibility.
I'm not particularly worried about the question at hand here (even if I would have preferred to find out simply by watching), but that's my general position on matters such as this. I don't really think it's unreasonable.

I'm not sure I'd go that far myself, but the idea of jumping studios is not something that sits well with me. The main reason is that the studio that does the first season creates a structure and that structure can easily be changed by the studio that takes over.
Of course when it comes to any studio switch, how bad the situation is depends on which studio they are switching to. As you can guess, I'm definitely hoping that this is not true at all and they are sticking with the same studio. However if they must switch studios, it better be a decent one.

Well, as far as Face, eye, Mouth and body, the designs are just the same. Backgrounds are a little different because this time, they used are original background unlike in Haruhi where they used a lot of real scenery in the animation.

Well, considering that the show itself hasn't been confirmed by official sources (it's still classed as a rumour, though it's from a reliable source), that it would be "confirmed" to be animated by a different studio is completely impossible at this stage.

I doubt it is true, because the reason that the show was set up for 2007 is because of the current projects Kyoto has. If it is true, I doubt that anyoen can do Haruhi like Kyo-animation can.

Right. The Japanese companies have to realize that as great a story as Haruhi has, as wonderful as the characters are, the thing that put the show over the top into being truly great was KyoAni's brilliance. The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi would NOT be my favorite show if anyone else had done it.
What makes a scene great is only partly a matter of what happens during it. Any show can have good scenes in that respect. But the way little details arrange themselves all over the screen from frame to frame truly sets apart "good" from "Haruhi" for me. And I have yet to come across a studio that can so consistently and powerfully express that as Kyoto Animation can. Can Haruhi be a great show under a different studio? Probably. Would it be the same? I simply don't believe it would.
Well, anyway, we'll see. With no confirmation or anything, we can only talk in hypotheticals so far. I'll hope for the best and refrain from worrying too much for now.

While we can't be certain of the politics that go with the anime industry, I think it's far more likely that Kyani approached the creators of the Haruhi property about doing a series and not the other way around. I very much doubt they'd lose the production to another studio in that circumstances since it's unlikely anybody had any qualms with how the first one turned out. This rumor is a joke and not worth spending another thought on IMO. No sense worrying until next year when we have real information.

I'm trying to imagine how anything could be improved upon. /images/graemlins/knowital.gif
The show is absolutely brilliant. /images/graemlins/cool.gif
Kyoto Animation has brought Haruhi alive, and have, in doing so, imparted their "scent" on the show.
For good or ill, any Haruhi animation done by anyone else just wouldn't be Haruhi.
Kyoto Animation holds the key to Haruhi's soul, and that leaves them with all the marbles. /images/graemlins/keroro.gif

I'm ok with Gonzo generally, but they'd be terrible for something like Haruhi. It requires a... subtlety... that they aren't always the best for. They can do it, but it's not something I'd expect them to nail as surely as KyoAni would.

Surely one only needs to look at the Full Metal Panic franchise will come to realise that Gonzo and Kyoani are on two entirely different levels even when it comes to handling the same material.

I would say it's a stretch to call FMP and FMP? Fumoffu the same material.

But FMP:TSR would not be a stretch at all, unless they didn't play the same role there as they did for Fumoffu. It's always hard to tell who the hell does what for anime.

FMP had its share of Sousuke-being-an-idiot comedy as well, afterall that is an intergral part of the FMP franchise. Yet Fumoffu does the comedy much better with more of it. And if you want to talk drama, TSR also handles it well too. Kyoani had pretty much proven that they are very good when handling conversions, especially those from novels or other text-heavy sources such as visual novels (see AIR and Kanon for example) by showing that they have writers with deep understanding of the script, they're on a roll with an excellent track record backing them up. OTOH Gonzo has no such record to speak of off the top of my head. The only thing which I can think of in favour of Gonzo is their CG skills.
