Review of The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya

The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya is a great movie. From it's TV series, I had fun. This series really makes you feel like you're a part of their adventure. But of course, everything comes to an end. This movie gave me a heavy feeling because, it's now over. So what is this all about? Well, Kyon is either set to another world or his world has been revised. On this world, everything is different. Asahina doesn't recognize him, Nagato is different, Class 1-9 is gone - Everything changed. This is where it all starts - Kyon's adventure to solve this mystery. This movie also fixes the plotholes that the TV series had.

The story is great. The drama was pulled off very well especially if you like the TV series. Although, there's a plot hole left at the ending which I really dislike but overall, it was one heck of a ride and this is one emotional movie.

The animation is great too. There are stuff where everything goes so smoothly and also the supernatural animation was really great.

The opening theme is the first opening theme but the ending theme was different. The ending theme was really great too and it really feels "emotional". The OSTs used on this movie - some were light and some were heavy and it really fits the movie itself.

Well, if I loved the characters on the TV series, I loved the characters more on the movie. Now, the characters maybe typical but it's how they blend and interact. That's what makes the characters good. The characters on this series are really memorable because of their adventure.

The main character on this movie is Kyon. This is his point of view on how he will solve this "error". He is left with this question - Would he prefer the original world or the new world? His interactions are very realistic and it isn't really cliche. I was expecting he would act so cliche in the ending but, surprisingly he didn't. I like to explain why but then I would end up spoiling so, let's just leave it like that.

The second main character on this movie is Yuki Nagato. She is very quiet throughout the TV series but, we now see her counterpart - a shy bookworm. This movie explains that she indeed have feelings throughout the TV series. She was expressing her emotions on this movie.

Haruhi Suzumiya? Well, she doesn't have much screen time but I don't really think we need more development from her on this movie. That's why the TV series existed in the first place.

Is this movie worth watching? 100% yes however, you cannot watch this movie if you haven't watched the TV series. If you watch the movie first then it will leave you with gigantic plot holes.

The reason why you should watch this movie is because of the feels that it offers. It tells you that you shouldn't be such a killjoy in life and just enjoy it. If you don't enjoy, who knows, you might regret it.

Score: 9.6/10
