[edit] Clarification

I wanted to clarify that Kyoto Animation worked in tandem with writers and animation directers other studios in the production of Full Metal Panic Fumoffu and Second Raid. For this purpose I subdivided their works section to include the series that were scripted and directed solely by Kyoto Animation staff including The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, Air, Kanon and Lucky Star and those that were cooperative efforts with Kyoto Animation taking the animation position and storyboarding, scripting and directing a handful of episodes, which include Full Metal Panic Second Raid and Fumoffu.24.141.12.226 00:38, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Postmodern

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya is not postmodern, according to the definitions I got from wikipedia, answers.com and dictionary.com.

"Postmodern: Of or relating to art, architecture, or literature that reacts against earlier modernist principles, as by reintroducing traditional or classical elements of style or by carrying modernist styles or practices to extremes"

If the person who put postmodern meant that it's after our time, and somewhere in the future... It still doesn't make sense, as it is very clear that The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya takes place in the modern world. Un1234l 20:43, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya does take place in the modern world, but what postmodern means in this context is the actual production: nonchronological, vague, and use of a narrator who serves also as a character. These are definitely not traditional methods of storytelling, so you can consider it postmodern. Correct me if I'm wrong. Lettersandwords 16:43, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

I would agree that Haruhi, like all contemporary anime series, is an example of postmodern art, in so far as it is produced in the post-modern era, but I doubt the broader establishment would agree. At the limit, you could maybe get away with calling it Superflat, but then if Haruhi is Superflat, than so is Lucky Star, FLCL, Zetsubou Sensei, and a whole lot of other original series... I would imagine actually, that Murakami would probably agree with me here, though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.177.99.117 (talk) 06:39, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Second Season of Haruhi Suzumiya

Although I also agree with the assumption that The Disappearance/Vanishment of Suzumiya Haruhi is likely to be the title of the next series, the link provided for the clarification of the title does not confirm the title at all; rather they are mere assumptions from the Japanese blog Moon Phase, written up in the ANN news. Until an official announcement is made, the title should remain as Haruhi Suzumiya - Second Season. ~ DarkS Umbreon (talk) 05:31, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
