<2022-10-06T17:21:58.000Z> Ghislaine: Listening to the haruhi episode - you are making a lot of good points. Haruhi really doesn’t hold up well
<2022-10-06T19:26:37.000Z> Kazak: yeah it's one of those shows that people remember as being better than it was lol
<2022-10-06T19:30:35.000Z> Ghislaine: Just really felt flat to me. None of the characters were fleshed out very well - the slice of life aspects were the main redeeming factor for me
<2022-10-06T19:30:49.000Z> Ghislaine: Also the endless 8 thing is just lol
<2022-10-06T19:31:22.000Z> Ghislaine: Just setting money on fire 
<2022-10-06T19:33:54.000Z> Ghislaine: I didn’t get the memo not to watch this so I struggled through like 6 of them
<2022-10-06T19:34:40.000Z> Kazak: Yeah I watched the whole thing my first time and every episode I just got more and more amazed that a studio actually greenlit that shit
<2022-10-06T19:35:13.000Z> Kazak: like imagine being a haruhi fan and watching that every week as it came out lol
<2022-10-06T19:35:31.000Z> Kazak: two months straight of basically filler
<2022-10-06T19:50:10.000Z> Ghislaine: Yeah I was like holy shit they actually reanimated everything pretty much enough that it’s not like it saved them money
<2022-10-06T19:51:23.000Z> Ghislaine: I would have loved 8 filler episodes of SOL stuff, them just hanging out with no paranormal crap
<2022-10-06T19:55:22.000Z> Kazak: yeah that stunt wasted a lot of potential to actually develop their characters
