   The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Well...The animation was good. The characters are funny, cute, and they each look different. I especially liked Haruhi's many hair do's in episode 01. That was hilarious.

This series is very silly and funny. It could have ended after episode 06. But it didn't. I love the episode where Haruhi sings "live!" The songs sound much better in Japanese, and they make much more sense. They tried to translate the songs to English for the English dub, but they failed to produce anything good.

There are some deep moments in the show, like when Haruhi tells Kyon about her moment of realization when she knew her life (which she had been happy with) suddenly became insignificant to her. It's an interesting story and you feel for Haruhi. But mostly the show bounces off the wall in several directions, and you'll never know what's going to happen next. (Most of the time I stared at the screen with my mental mouth agape in a state of slight shock and confusion.)

I wouldn't recommend this show to everyone, but it's alright. Though I could have gone without some of the stupider "moe" moments.

Oh, and there's this cute dance in the end credits, I want to learn it someday.

I don't want to give practically any of it away to those who will watch the series in the future. Besides if I typed up a complete summary no one would believe me anyway.

And on that note,
