At an event, Aya Hirano performed God Knows and did a stage parody of Endless Eight. Suddenly, a surprise announcement was heard, "SOS Brigade is Here!!"
Chihara and Goto come out as surprise guests and they perform Hare Hare Yukai together on stage and the audience went wild.
Hirano says, "It's the second consecutive year that the SOS Girls reunite. Even though the generation that doesn't know Haruhi increases, since 12 years ago (12 years, anons) they also welcomed the surprise, and this warmth created a sense of unity bridging that time" (Loosely translated)
After the dance, Daisuke Ono (Koizumi) comes out as another surprise guest and they four of them do the famous pose together.
Curiously, Brigade Member Number 1 did not show up. Afterwards, Aya writes in her blog at the very end:
<杉田さーん! キョーーーン! ……5人でまたハレ晴レを踊る日は来るのでしょうか?!
>Sugita-saan! Kyooooon! ......Will a day when 5 people dance the Hare Hare Yukai come again?!
As an aside, I've been following Sugita on Twitter and lately all he's been doing is complaining about always being so busy. Things are heating up.

I forgot to mention that Aya Hirano was a complete surprise guest. This was an anime event with anisongs and showing of new anime. 10,000 people were in attendance and Shoko Nakagawa also showed up who performed Sorairo Days, the OP to TTGL.
Chihara and Goto were the second surprise. Koizumi was the third surprise, but we didn't get the fourth surprise. We didn't get Kyon.

Looks like there's hope for more Haruhi, I couldn't be happier.
Everthing implies that if there's goint to be a new Haruhi anime they are going to announce it on November 4 in the Sneaker Bunko Festival.
Does anybody know if Kadokawa/Dengeki stream the event?

I used to like her but after seeing her mental breakdown and how disgusting of a woman she actually is I just lost all interest. I'd like there to be a season 2 of Lucky Star but at the same time I still want this girl to wallow in all her past misdeeds. It doesn't seem right that she gets to still be rich and live a good life where there are hundreds of good girl seiyus that don't stoop down to her level and actually are pure and loyal.

Matsuki dies when all she wanted was to get married and have a happy life while Hirano lives on to exemplify all of the worst of the fairer sex. If there's any proof that God exists and that he's a cunt look no further than this. Hirano is really just an all-around basic and unpleasant person, regardless of whatever scandals those who support her might like to steer any conversation into in an attempt to victimise and by extension justify her.

Her Youtube gets so little hits.
What's with this? You would think Mari Iijima would still be huge. Is she just not remembered in nipland?
She was fucking Minmay, for crying out loud. She's huge for Otaku. At least she should be.
Funnily enough, it's like what Minmay would be doing after the events in the show when she went on her journey to find the reasons for her songs.

Brave Girl Ravens, the DMM game I'm playing to supplement my study of Nipponese, just announced a Haruhi collab. No details or date yet, though.
By the way, this is a game where every character has unlockable sex scenes.

In your experience, how hard is it to get event characters? Especially if you're new to the game.
No.875294
>>875281
That's hard to say, with no details or anything, but I can see it going two ways:
One, like a standard event, with two girls added to gacha (you will get a few free tickets to try, but unless you are extra lucky you won't get them) and one girl buyable for tokens from in-game missions* (easy to get, if you find some time to play every day that the event is on).
Two, they will just throw them at you. During the last collab, they made one girl buyable for a very small amount of event tokens and another as a reward just for logging into the game a certain number of days while the event was on.
In general, this game is pretty generous, but all the free shit you can gather won't beat the gacha odds. A few days ago I spent 20+ free tickets on a limited time event and still didn't get the girl I wanted. I'm still pretty salty from that.
*The only thing you need to easily farm the event missions is one team made out of 15x 80level UR girls. Getting them is easy: putting together 3x N-rank versions of a girl makes an R-rank, 3x R-ranks +1 R-rank fodder girl make an SR, 2x SRs +1 make an SSR, and 2x SSRs +1 make an UR. The girls get levels through Exp gained from winning missions or from discarded girls you don't need. If you toss most of your starting in-game currency 「シルバ」 into the basic gacha 「シルバ募集」, you should be able to get your first fully leveled UR team within the first two days of playing. So, if you are thinking of starting to play only for Haruhi and then quitting, there isn't much of a reason to hurry.
