Haruhi was a disappointment this season, but I hope there will be a third season…
Seeing how long we waited for this one, dosent give me much hope…

Good god that was actually pretty funny.

Overall so much damage has been done with E8 that i really couldn’t give a Monkeys if there’s a S3 or not. If there is then fine, if there isn’t, then no big loss to the world.

Btw, can I ask you what’s your source for the graph?

Good point. But I think the Haruhi index will be long defunct by the time Future Mikuru gets a major role. I’d imagine she’d get her own IPO if that ever happened.

Personally, I also lost interest about Haruhi because of E8. They shouldn’t have aired Haruhi instead if they do know they don’t have the content yet. Well, it was amusing though to see the expressions of many anime fans raeg because of this troll.

I agree with Lawrence, If KyoAni won’t air the sequel for the show within that period(I actually think 18 months is too long!), I think it would be harder for them to grab their original share from the market. Well, they should do it faster if they still want to get back to what the viewers are expecting, since several viewers have read the novel already.

If Future Mikuru is highly valuable, it may be worth holding onto present Mikuru despite the uselessness, unless you consider them different characters. .-= Baka-Raptor´s last blog ..Gantz: Manliest Anime Manga Ever? =-.

Economics can totally give someone a raging boner.

Anyway, Kyon was the best part of the Sighs arc if you ask me. And that’s only for episode 4. I say Screw Haruhi because Denial of her existence as a god is natural for me.

Low Cost high Demand

Kadokawa would be the church. The merchants would the anime industry. Fans would be the buyers. The ones who wouldn’t like the S2 would’ve forced to watch (buy it) even though they don’t want to. The ones who already liked would keep watching (buying) Thus it they would make some profit no matter what.

They must’ve had someone like Lawrence in charge of E8 because I saw a bunch of massive whoring of the franchise in this season. Here’s some Haruhi. Here’s some Mikuru. Now give me 8k silver coins for the anime. Forget about tomorrow. The time to sell is now.

In other words, lack of Haruhi raised the value of the franchise therefore there was more demand after three years. As long as they hyped it up and use the media to announce the news, the demand was bound to go UP. Probably a Brilliant plan from a greedy merchant economic standpoint.
