We suddenly see Haruhi in a new light, really liked what she talked about, I definitely shared her thoughts at some point. Koizumi elaborates further. And the Anthropic Principle too!
Unrelated: Anyone with a physical book can say how long each week is on average? I have an ebook, I have no idea how much we’re reading.
Yeah, we’re going at standard intermediate book club speed, roughly 15 pages a week. Last week was 14 pages and 2 lines, This week is 17+a bit of text.
I also liked the moral dilemma of キョン, who knows basically everything about 朝倉 but can’t really tell ハルヒ. Although, I keep thinking that he is morally bankrupt, so it might not be much of an issue for him.
I did like ハルヒ’s story and 小泉’s extra details like you. It’s interesting that 小泉 not only got powers, but immediately knew how to use them. That’s both plot convenient and meaningful in the context of proving that it was due to an external intervention.
By the way, the actual average is around 15 pages of text, but is highly variable.
Definitely beats the breast talks from last week. Poor みくる… (I mean, she seems to be a willing participant at this point, but it feels sad that she was written that way…)
let us remember this day as the day I almost stopped my self from commenting on that part
