Contains major spoilers for The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiyahttps://anilist.co/manga/145592/SuzumiyaHaruhinoShoushitsu/. Yes it is time once again for me to review a Haruhi Suzumiya light novel Oh but whats this? This time its Kyon who wants to stir things up? Oh this is quite intriguing Whats also intriguing is that for the first time ever Im reviewing a Haruhi Suzumiya light novel that covers not a collection of short stories but one full story I started my Haruhi reviews with The Rampage of Haruhi Suzumiya in case youre wondering. Now I wonder how this will fare? God I wish I had a time machine so Id be able to travel forward in time and know how. Attention aliens time travelers and espers Please read my review of the seventh light novel in the Haruhi Suzumiya series The Intrigues of Haruhi Suzumiya by Nagaru Tanigawa Dont worry ordinary humans. Ill allow you to read it too. If you arent familiar with this series allow me to explain. Kyon real name still withheld for some reason especially considering how hates his nickname is just your average guy who upon entering high school meets Haruhi Suzumiya who is not your average girl. Some proof of this fact is how she is only interested in aliens time travelers and espers she completely rejects normal humans. Bizarrely enough Kyon ends up becoming acquainted with Haruhi. One conversation after another ensues and eventually Haruhis forcing Kyon to join a club she just formed. Whats the name of this particular club you ask? The Save the World by Overloading it with Fun Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade or for short the SOS Brigade To carry out the activities of the SOS Brigade Haruhi secures the literary club room as well as its only member the stoic bookworm Yuki Nagato. She also recruits Mikuru Asahina a shy and adorable secondyear girl and Itsuki Koizumi a mysterious transfer student. The SOS Brigades goal according to Haruhi is to find aliens time travelers and espers and have fun with them However little does she know that this goal has already been achieved Yuki Mikuru and Itsuki are respectively an alien a time traveler and an esper. They are all here specifically because of Haruhi which leads to more proof of Haruhi not being your average girl she unknowingly has the godlike power to destroy and recreate the world when shes bored of it. Thus the rest of the SOS Brigade must go along with all of Haruhis crazy schemes to avoid the apocalypse.... and in the meanwhile Kyon gets more and more involved in things that are commonly seen in the scifi genre such as time travel thanks to his bizarre fellow club members. Speaking of time travel that is an especially important factor of the novel I am reviewing today. That is a fact that was obvious from the prologue when Kyon Yuki and Mikuru go back to December eighteenth to fill in a gap from when Yuki changed the world the way she did in The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya. It makes more sense than it sounds. However the real story in this novel starts a month after this little timetravel adventure when Kyon finds Mikuru inside of the broom closet in the club room she claims that she was sent from eight days in the future by Kyon himself which of course confuses Kyon. This leads to Kyon receiving letters from the older Mikuru the one from further into the future than the Mikuru everyone knows and loves instructing him to complete a certain number of tasks over the course of the week. He does these tasks alongside the Mikuru from eight days later as he was instructed to take her along.... and ends up saving a certain someone from a certain organization. Im not going to name any names to avoid spoilers. If you havent read this novel and have a guess on who the certain someone or the certain organization is your guess is probably wrong. Please excuse me for the pun Im about to make but this novel was intriguing in more ways than one For example two new characters although theyre currently unnamed were introduced and Im interested in seeing what kind of role theyll play in the rest of the series. One of those new characters is quite irritating though. The entire concept of this novel was interesting as well every little thing that happened served a purpose that in the end made all of those puzzle pieces fit together nicely. Im also a fan of the concept of time travel so that might also have something to do with it. The character development was also great in this novel and I enjoyed how Kyon and Mikuru interacted throughout the story especially considering how much I love Mikuru However I did notice a significant lack of Haruhi another character I love but hey even though her name is in the title she cant have every ounce of the spotlight right? Overall I really loved The Intrigues of Haruhi Suzumiya Its an absolute mustread for all Haruhi fans. Theres one question that must be asked however will a possible season three of the anime adaptation be as intriguing or perhaps even more? I guess well only find out if one is announced in the future Seriously MAKE IT HAPPEN.
