do kids these days even know what endless 8 is

all you young anime fans with your attack on titans and your maid dragons will never know the sheer hell of the time The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya went in to a time loop story arc and made the same episode 8 times and broadcast that same episode 8 weeks in a row

they didn’t just air the same episode eight times

they made the same episode 8 times in slightly different ways

different camera angles, different shots, different outfits

eight times

eight weeks

the same episode

this is a bit of anime history that i’ve never heard before but sounds horrendous.

So like the context of this was they gave a light novel series a 13-episode adaptation that lightly dipped into the material and it had a cult following and then 3 years later they rebroadcast it with a campaign teasing that there was a second season but when it came this was 8 of the 13 new episodes
