Review of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
If Haruhi was a guy, everyone would hate them... Since years I wanted to watch the show cause it was so popular and I really liked to watch something that would start simple and funny and turn into romantic drama. Well, the romantic drama wasn't really such a long part, so forget that. The other part was just pretty boring. Or even annoying. Guess, maybe that is the message of that anime. It is so boring, so we can feel Haruhi's boredom. And when something exciting happens, it gets better. But even if you see the anime in that light, it is... only 4 stars for me. Mostis just inner monologe and whenever Haruhi does something "funny". It is harassing Mikuru. It is soooo uncomfortable to watch. Even for ecchi Anime fans... There are such better ways to implement funny moments like these, without making them annoying and harassing.
And the character of Haruhi makes it worse. My boyfriend and I only watched the full anime, cause I know how much he hates characters like Haruhi. Haha. In that case the anime is kinda funny cause of the torturing sounds of my boyfriend over Kyons misfortune. Poor guy just gets dragged into the business of Haruhi and the others. We would always joke about what Kyon can do to get rid of Haruhi's demands and troubles :D
So guys, if you like the first few episodes, you like the whole show. But if you don't, please don't waste your time watching and hoping it gets more interesting.
