Summary: fun and funnier
Comment: A fun, exciting, and highly entertaining show. Kind of like a sci-fi version of Azumanga Daioh, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya will keep you laughing the whole way through.
A strange girl creates a club of even stranger people who do their best to keep her entertained so as not to let the world be destroyed. No real plot ever surfaces and we follow the characters through their daily shenanigans.
I would have given this a 5 but Kyon really got on my nerves since the entire series he gushes over Mikuru. It just made his character seem dense and very shallow. Every other comment was about how wonderful/perfect Mikuru was, which was incredibly annoying considering her character was pretty bland and nothing special and served no purpose other than fan service.
Besides that, anyone picking this up won't be disappointed. Girls will like it, but it's more of a guy show. Just sit back and get ready to laugh!

Summary: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzamiya
Comment: The "Melancholy of Haruhi Suzamiya" is one of the best new anime out there. It's funny, witty, exciting and wildly crazy. It grabs your attention like hardly anything else and holds it. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this anime changed my life. Now I keep asking myself, "Have I squeezed every moment I can out the the day? What would Haruhi have done?" "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzamiya," buy it.

Summary: Great SciFi Slice of Life - 4.5 Stars
Comment: The series - The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - is totally random, bizzare and not like any other story I've seen in anime. It's this awesome blend of SciFi and slice of life high school - and honestly if you don't like either one of those genres I'd stay far away from this show because going to keep you watching. Haruhi is obnoxious and hilarious, so it's good that most of the other characters, while interesting, are a bit more bland. You're not overwhelmed with insanity despite how whacky their plots can get. There is somewhat of an arch, but you can watch the episodes in a variety of orders and most everything will still make sense.
The set itself is nice but I don't think I have high expectations. Really all I want is a complete collection in a sturdy box that won't take up too much of my shelf space - this box set fits that bill. There really aren't any neat inserts that I can recall and the DVD extras are somewhat repetitive from DVD to DVD, but might be entertaining for a hardcore fan.
Overall, I do recommend this set - I was satisfied with the subtitle translations and I thought the dub was done fairly well... I am happy to have added it to my collection.

OBEY HARUHI
Customer Rating:
Summary: AMAZING!!!!
Comment: This is by far the GREATEST anime I have ever watched. The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi is short, confusing, and extraordinarily well-made. There is a reason why there are so many great things done to parody it: everthing is so great people want to copy it. The American Voice actors were well-chosen for the most part. The only voice that seems off for the character is Haruhi's actor, but that part is exremely tough to get someone for, I'm sure. Japanese subs are the best way to watch this, but watch it any way you can!

I thought that when I entered high school, my days of believing in aliens, time travelers and ESPers were going to be over. That is until she introduced herself. Claiming to be interested in only aliens, time travelers, and ESPers, Haruhi Suzumiya was the strangest girl I ve met in a long time. Before I knew what s going on, I ve been dragged into her weird club, and it looks like I m not the only one who has been drafted into this SOS Brigade of hers, because there are three other students who don t seem to be so ordinary themselves. Either way we ve all found ourselves caught up in Haruhi s quest to search for all things extraordinary. And what s this I hear about us making a movie?
