As much as I enjoy collecting anime figurines, $135 is a bit too rich for my blood to spend on one figure. Luckily I already have a Haruhi fig. This looks nice though!

@Solertia: I thought the $135 was for the Haruhi, Mikuru and Yuki figures as well as the game.

At least, that's how Play-Asia makes it look. $135 for just one figure is, yeah, no way I'd go that route. Only figures I've seen for that much are mecha models.

@the7k: I hope you're right, because those figures aren't even THAT good as I see it.

At least compared to my 3 other Haruhi figures...

@Bokusatsu_Tenshi: I'd actually really like to get these figures, it's the game that has me thinking twice. An Adventure game? Bleh. It'd be hard to justify that even if it was in English, but for a Adv game in Moon Speak? I'd have to suddenly win the lottery to justify that.

That other Haruhi Wii game; the one where you perform the dance... that is a serious contender for my wallet.

I understand it's a common thing for Japanese women, but did the statue need to be bowlegged?

Watched 1 episode of Haruhi... I didn't really like it at all, and I never want to see another episode ever again.

@KnightsofRound: I had a friend of mine who watched just the first episode of Haruhi and decided it wasn't for her.

I've never talked to her again. Sometimes, you just gotta cut people off. (Joking, but not really.)

@KnightsofRound: I watched the first DVD, and while i kind of liked it, it didn't draw me in to keep watching the series. Kyon is passive aggressive, haruhi is selfish and thoughtless, the supporting cast may be self-aware stereotypes, but they are stereotypes all the same. Subtext or not, a bunny suit is a bunny suit.

I think a problem is that they don't give much reason to care about the characters, and really no reason why Kyon stays. I mean Keitaro suffered worse in Love Hina, but he was more likable, and had motivation.

Then again, I like the more low-key anime like Haibane-Renmei so, I'm not the best audience for haruhi i guess.

@neispace: I refuse to believe any character in Love Hina is likable at all, much less more likable than any Haruhi character.

Haibane-Renmei is great, but you gotta realize that sometimes something is popular because it's good. Not most the time, but it does happen on occasion. I'm all for low-key stuff because usually people are morons when it comes to good anime, but in this case they got it right.

Personally, Haruhi is one of the only anime that keeps me in this horribly bland world of weeaboos; The others being Allison & Lillia and Zettai Karen Children.

I never quite understood why haruhi is so popular. I watched the anime and I hate her selfish attitudes. If she was real, I would totally kick her in the head.

@squall3031: I'm not too crazy about Haruhi either (Haruhi, the character. The anime, I consider to be the biggest reason I haven't completely given up on anime.) However, I gotta admit that there is something really cute about her when she gets excited over something. Plus, there's all the ridiculous stuff she does.

If she had a dash of moe and a perfect zettai ryouiki the world would end.

I have never been in to figures, and in fact think they are stupid considering how all they do is sit around someplace gathering dust. HOWEVER, somehow I want those. I feel dirty.

@zacwight: I used to think exactly that, then I saw one particular one and had to have it. Didn't regret it, it brightens the place up, or something.

Kind of like buying the DVDs of a series, or a legal copy of a PC game, not really functional in this day and age, but nice to have.

@Crumplecorn: Yeah, the I never was much into paying obscene prices for figures either until I saw a Tsuruya/Mikuru 1/8 scale set at a local import store. Just had to have it.

It's like you say; I already had a burnt copy of Psychonauts on my PC, but once I saw it at a store, reasonably priced, I had to have it. For some reason, it's just nice to actually have some things for your personal collection.

I hate Haruhi, she's one of the worst anime characters ever created. This game will most likely be crap like most anime-to-game conversions.

@fELIXADER - You're nuts if you think Japanese animation is superior. I might agree if we were talking 10-20 years ago, but not with today's standards of Japanese animation which has gone majorly downhill.

@W10002: It was a marketing gimmick. Something about season 2 "disappearing."

It's just a reference to one of the original novels, The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya.

@Taiyz:
This is correct.
July 08 edition of Newtype magazine (Japan) had a big section on the new haruhi coming out. For those of you with a subscription (or just have July issue lying around your house!) the article starts on page 16, a few pages after the foldout poster with Konata as Hatsune Miku.
