since twitter's burning gonna try bringing my posts about language stuff and losing my shit over star wars and such here - hi!
I remember it being huge when it was new, and ofc that dance, but I wasn't into anime yet at that time. I finally watched it two or so years ago and loved it to bits. I own so much Yuki Nagato merch now, and I cosplayed her. She's the best.
thanks for sharing this! <3
i have a persistent background thread in my brain dedicated exclusively to cringing at myself from middle school/high school, and Haruhi's gotten caught in the blast radius of that a whole lot – "oh, you loved it back then, so it's gross weeb trash". so i appreciate the reminder that it's actually an interesting funny show that did cool stuff! i do love Endless Eight, it's great seeing shows do weird experiments with the form and pull it off well <3
