The footage may not be recycled, but the audio sure as heck could be. >_>

But it has been nice getting different yukatas and bathing suits every episode. :P

Here's my take on it. I haven't read the $#(*&%%$ manga. I've heard about it though and it's likely the only reason I haven't freaked out.

Whether or not the 3 eps have all had unique cells drawn is not cutting it with quite a few I'm sure.

They run a fine first season, then they tooootally drive the fans out of their tree waiting for this season to finally arrive, and 3 of the first four new shows turn out to be essentially the same show (with unique art being limited to differing clothing worn).

I can't think of another anime that it more deserving of being shamelessly pirated as revenge for the over the top annoying treatment of the viewing fans.

I suppose they do deserve it.
What's more, I can't wait till Kyon finally snaps and literally takes Haruhi from BEHIND ^_^

omg, i'm going to punch someone, 5th ep is ANOTHER repeat, again with wonderful original animation, an almost entirely unoriginal dialogue. i didn't even bother watching the full thing, just flipped through quickly to see if it actually changed anywhere, from what i saw...no. I really hope the later eps make up for this, cause if it wasn't for the fact that i know there will be awsomeness coming eventually i would probably have quit watching by now.

Ok, here's a question, for those that have read the manga.

How pages did they waste on this dumb ass arc?
Did they actually force the manga fans to buy the same book several times?

It was a visual novel well before it was a manga.

As far as I know Endless Eight takes up maybe a quarter of "The Rampage of Suzumiya Haruhi" novel.
