<div class="IPBDescription">What's the episodes order ????</div>I started watching this show but to my surprise on Episode-4 (well at leats I think its 4 because the filename has 4 as the episode), they play baseball but there are mentions of things that happened before that episode (like being trapped in some dimension). But the previous episode had nothing about this and also, where did the new people came from (a new guy is attending her club) ?

So I can only conclude that the episode references in the filenames are totaly wrong and not following the real episode order.

So what is the real order of the episodes according to filename <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />

    I think I figured it out. I found this<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Melancholy_of_Haruhi_Suzumiya_episodes" target="_blank"> link</a>.

    File-01 = Episode-11
    File-02 = Episode-01
    File-03 = Episode-02
    File-04 = Episode-07
    File-05 = Episode-03
    File-06 = Episode-09
    File-07 = Episode-08
    File-08 = Episode-10
    File-09 = Episode-14
    File-10 = Episode-04
    File-11 = Episode-13
    File-12 = Episode-12
    File-13 = Episode-05
    File-14 = Episode-06


    Is that it ?

    The chronological order of the episodes is intentionally out of order. You are <i>supposed</i> to watch them that way, as it adds to the story, and if you don't the story will actually end before you get through half the episodes. The out of order way is how they were aired over in Japan.

    that's half the fun, though.
    the filenames are right, though. watch the end credits all the way through and they announce the next episode twice. the first number is the next episode's place on the timeline and the second is the place it fits on the schedule ... or was it backwards ...
    either way, just watch it in order (technically out of order) or else the story will wrap up by the fifth episode

    Yeah, it jumps around a bit. It's intentional. That threw me off a bit but pretend it's like a book and it's switching between "Story arcs."

    I hated the chronologically ###### with the episodes. I understood why they did it after seeing it, but I still hated it. I understood what was happening much better after reading the books.

    Well I have watched all 14 episodes and there is no indicating of an end other then that rainy day when they walked under an umbrella. She ran away, turned back and made a funny face toward him. Almost felt like it was saying she started to like him.

    Was there any other episodes ever done or they haven't caught up to it yet ?


    I liked the wakyness of it and yet, some serious moments (not many of them and generaly very brief).

    I'm curious to see how it will end.

    The anime series covers the events within the first 2 light novels. There are something like 8 or 9 light novels now. Most have been translated by the weeaboo masses and are posted online somewhere.

    ok I'm totally confused @.@

    I just watched 1,2,3,5,10,13,14.

    The idea of watching the next ones seems bizarre because 14 is blatantly the last episode.
    So confused -.-


    <b>edit:</b> AAAAAHHHHH!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! GOD NO!
    I just realised I was reading the table wrong... it's aranged by the DVD order and I should've watched them in the order of the filenames I've been watching them to get the TV order which would've made the 14 the end @.@

    They announced a second season but I don't think they'll be working on it till they finish the current season of Lucky Star.
