I was under the impression that this thread was for unpopular opinions... ๐
I thought people thought it was a philosophical masterpiece. And I thought it was garbage. I understood fuckall. And I was watching it at my peak time during the day on the appropriate amount of caffeine to stimulate my brain. Nothing.
I may be dumb. Maybe. But I didn't understand shit, that's for sure.
There's a fan recut that takes all the time skip scenes and puts them in chronological order that's much more straightforward. Personally I can't imagine watching it that way, but I also refuse to acknowledge The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya except in broadcast order. There's definitely a large contingent that prefer both these media in chronological order though, so you're not alone.
I think you've replied to the wrong comment, mate.
Funnily enough, I have spoken about Haruhi quite a bit ๐.
My comment was referring to Cloud Atlas while comparing it to Haruhi as another piece of media with dramatic (and controversial) time skips.
