I’m not really a fan nor am I really interested in the whole Haruhi Suzumiya franchise. With fans going boohoo over the whole bad marketing fiasco I do hope that they’re happy with the new season announcement. I’m more happy with something else that Kadokawa has recently been releasing *pause* for free *pause* on youtube instead.
For the past month or so Kadokawa has been producing short 5 min webisodes on youtube based on the Haruhi franchise called ‘The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya’. Using more chibified characters with a comedic story each episode(ala 4koma) that has no connection whatsoever to the main show. Voiced by the same original voice actors there’s a certain amount of quality that you can expect. Heck, its even subbed in english.

It is confirmed and since some of you know about it already I guess we here at DaiCon cannot keep it a secret any longer. For the first time ever in South East Asia, we will be bringing in one of the BIGGEST superstar in the entire freaking history of Japanese TV: MINORU SHIRAISHI!!!!!!!!
If you’ve had not heard it yet then you’ve heard it first at Clowonline.com. Since he’s such a big star his manager only allow us to give away 10 autographs. So because of that we will be having a Royal Rumble Deathmatch ala World Wrestling Entertainment (previously known as WWF, then non panda kind). Potential autograph recipients must battle it out in a arena till death there is only 10 left standing. Should there be only ONE left standing that person will receive a special invitation 1-on-1 dinner with our superstar himself.
Yes, yes. I know its cruel to enjoy such spectacle but if the ancient Romans can do it then why not us? Malaysia Boleh!!!
Oh, but that’s not all. The multi-talented Minoru Shiraishi will be performing his greatest hits for us LIVE and ON STAGE at our grand hall. Hits such as ‘Koi no Minoru Densetsu – Kazenban’ and ‘Otoko no Iki-Sama’ will be performed for you. See how much trouble we go for you people. Sigh….
Well? So what are you waiting for? Come on down(or up) for a fun filled experience for the whole family. Who knows? He might not be traveling alone.

p/s: Yes, we have an arena in MMU. What do you think we do? Studying about astrophysics and Heisenberg’s theory oni meh? We also race chariots, learn how to work together in a phalanx line and also fighting wild bears and lions(sometimes tigers too but they’re really rare). We’re a well equipped uni mah.
