It met the same fate as countless other generic sloppy nuanimes: forgotten, as it's utterly forgettable trash.
>I remember for a good 3 or so years Haruhi was practically the face of anime worldwide
No it wasn't, nor was it "the face of anime" anywhere for that matter.
It just had some loud fans who insisted it was the greatest thing ever (because they were, most of them, in the same boat/shoes you were in).
It just seemed to you like it was "the face of anime" because you were:
> "a little kid watching anime on YouTube"
So whatever animes you saw at the time,
those popular on YT (i.e. mostly whatever nuanime-slop was new at that time) were Your First Animes
and they therefore had a special or skewed impression on you (yeah you said "wasn't anything special", but due to
your kid-mind and being new to anime you misperceived it as being more popular and more present online than it really was)

>t. still have that, uh, thing, containing one of the Haruhi characters talking shit about a certain computer program (being intentionally vague here because those who remember/know are aware of what I'm talking about, and if I'd been more direct here then non-knowers would be able to look this stuff up)

like the other guy said, it had some incredibly loud fans. but it was also an introduction to anime for a lot of people in that era, and since people are usually pretty attached to their first anime they ended up glazing it to death. i do also remember being a kid and thinking it was way too fucking popular for what it was doe

The first volume of the ln (s1) was written without plans for a sequel.
Notice how the extraterrestial subplot, the esp subplot, or even the romance subplot disappears? Thats because the author had no idea he even had to continue those.
Right after the unexpected success of the first ln he signed a bookdeal for 20 more volumes, so all of the plot in haruhi was dropped in favor of mindless solsloppa.

unlike what >>120672
says (who has no idea what he's talking about, btw yapping about shih all the time just makes you look more stupid, lil bro. You wasted a big textwall just to say "i dont know what this is but I saw it on-on the youtube and, and its probably not important because I dont know anything about it. Just allow me to tell you how little I know because its very important for you to know just how little I know. I dont care either. I care so little about this GARBAGE sol slop I'm going to seethe for two paragraphs.")(also, yes, I made this extra long on purpose)
the unconventional plot was what made haruhi popular. The stereotype characters had an in-universe explanation (nagato literally being an computer interface for ayliens) instead of just being that way for no reason.
Things mattered in that first ln; the mc getting close to haruhi meant he almost got killed for it, haruhi being a god meant all sorts of organizations took interest in her
Then he signed a book deal and had to stretch everything out. There was never any payoff planned, nor would it have been possible to stretch it for 20 fucking volumes, so all of the plot was dropped entirely.
Every subsequent volume got less and less popular, the adaptation was axed after s2, kyoni got torched (rightfully so for producing the garbage that was s2) and people forgot because everything good and memorable about it disappeared

The reason I never really bothered reading past the first LN was because I heard about that drop in quality. I read a synopsis of everything up to Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya after that and decided not to continue with it. Reading even further, its no wonder the anime got axed. These characters sound completely different compared to how they were initially

haruhi is a massive autist and is made for sex

>>120670 (OP)
Like >>120677 said Haruhi wasn't planned to have sequels so it eventually just became a slice-of-life. Kyoani was smart enough to know that continuing the adaption was a fools errand so they made the Disappearance movie as a send off to the show and focused on making original media rather than adapting.
<My snca opinion on the show below
Even doe the movie wasn't a proper ending it was so gemmy that it made up for it. When I first watched Haruhi I really enjoyed the first couple of episodes as there was an actual plot and I was exited to see how it would develop but I was disappointed to see the show turn into a generic slice of life. By the time I got around to watching the movie I was burnt out on the show because of nothing ever happening (the time-travel, baseball and concert episodes were gemmy doebiet) so the movie completely blew my expectations out of the water. It may not be my favourite movie of all time (top 3 doe) but it is the only movie I can truly describe as being flawless/perfect as there is honestly nothing that can be improved about it as they told the story they wanted to tell perfectly without any problems. The show in general is mostly mid apart from the begging and a couple of gemmy episodes but the movie is honestly good enough to watch on its own or with minimal knowledge of the anime.

>the time-travel, baseball and concert episodes were gemmy doebiet
TSMT. I think the anime would be in my top 5 if it was consistently just episodes like that (that kept to the progression of the plot of course).
However, I do think that "Someday in the rain" is one of the best episodes despite being technically SOL. I don't think I would've liked the movie as much without it

The spin-off series The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan where Kyon stays in the new world Yuki created in the movie sucks dick don't bother with it

>>120814
I actually forgot about someday in the rain, that was a really gemmy episode and just a /calm/rald all around.

>>120819
The Yuki-chan series is literally fanfiction

>>120814
Someday in the rain is so good in comparison to the other SOL episodes because it doesnt follow the typical SOL filler format of the series. The typical format is Haruhi doing some stupid shit to Mikuru while Kyon argues with her, Yuki does nothing and Koizumi makes a funny comment. Someday in the rain doesnt have any supernatural elements but it actually furthers their characters by just showing us their usual day-to-day interaction. It shows us how despite his complaints, Kyon highly values his relationship with everyone in the SOS Brigade, especially with Haruhi. Its also the first hint (outside of Endless Eight) we get about Yuki's feelings about Kyon and her actions during the movie.

everyone here posting their opinions on the anime yet i completely gave up on it at the 4th or the 5th episode (i forgot). i finished nichojou right nefore going onto haruhi and i suppose it couldnt match the quality? i do intend to give this show a second chance and i will probably post my opinion here
