Angelo wrote a nice review of the anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, on his blog, but I couldn’t fathom how he omitted one major detail. Before I explain, I want to make it clear that I haven’t watched the anime myself, but as you’re about to see, this is further proof of my point that failing to mention the following immensely popular video in the review is only short of unjust. Watch:
Pretty soon, it rippled through Japan and the rest of the world through the web, and people started dancing shamelessly to it:
If you found that entertaining, there are dozens more videos of people dancing to that song (and making fools out of themselves :P) or watch the artist’s performance.
LooL, I should try this on my spare time it looks like a good exercise
And then show us! XD
The anime version is the cutest thing! Tawny achoofah! As for the other version, it’s hilarious! I’m sooo going to go learn that dance! Maybe even put it up on Youtube! Yalla Laialy, who is with me? (aham shay ina I said her name and then ask whose with me, naqzah akbar min chithee, maku) :P Anywhoo thanks for the post 3baid :)
LOL !! I just love the 7araka before the dance starts. 5ab9a I dunno what happens but that just cracks me up.
Anyway, I can’t believe people actually rewind the anime and mimic the moves. That’s so high-schoolish. Allah i3inhom 3ala roo7hom.
Sushi, watch the last link in the post before ‘artist’s performance’. It’s a video of people dancing on the street and then the police show up and they start running! XD
D&G, you’re welcome :]
This is the type of thing that anime causes, look at what Initial D did to spread the drifting across the globe which was first underground in Japan and then spread to the rest of the world!
Anime has changed a lot of things with the media, a lot of musicians are become extremely popular by association with the intros and ending of each show, with anime shows they ask real bands to make the music, not a music director!
And this is one hell of anime that I have yet to see! lol
LOL 3baid. Actually I deliberately choose not to mention the Haruhi Dance because:
A) Everybody knows (or at least should know) what a Haruhi dance is.
B) I wanted to tell the people that Haruhi isn’t just a dance. It is actually a well made anime. Many people dismissed watching the anime because of the dance so I wanted to send the clear message regarding the anime and its witty characters..
Anyway, you should definitely give this anime a chance and watch it. It’s only 10 episodes but very hysterical :D
loooooooooooooooool @ the link you mentioned! Awww the cops ruined the dance HAHAHAH. I really really like the first 7araka of the dance ehhehehe…
Now I wanna go to Japan and dance in the streets too LOL
Angelo are you sure it’s 10 episodes? The one I’m downloadin says 1-14?! And I sure hope this one is subbed =/
What’s with kuwaiti guys nowadays? kel swalefhom 3an el anime or “manga”!!!
LoOoOoOoL
I second RekoOOo
Remind me never to take recommendation from Kuwaiti guys on anime again. Their suggestions are always about ‘shonen’ animes =/
Rekoo, nowadays? Anime has been around for years! Simplist example is Grendizer! :O
Sushi, you’re asking the wrong guys. I’m a Takahashi fan myself.
@Sushi
Sorry my mistake. Yes it’s 14 episodes. :)
LOL!!! 3ajeeeb its the cutest dance ever! Mani im3aybaaa 3al naas cuz I like learning funny/stupid dances and “performing” jidam my friends :P Like the MC Hammer Dance, and Vanilla Ice and Napoleon Dynamite oo the Carelton dance (from Fresh Prince) to name a few :P
heheheheheh
lol i wanna learn it
this is not related to this post, but i was seeking help to install a leopord on my machine and i don’t want to lose any of my files, do you have a good site? or can you make a ckeck list?
LooooL!! I wanna do my own version tooo!!
Miss_K, you should have no problems installing Leopard directly on Tiger, but it’s a good idea to back up your stuff. You’ll need an external hard drive though. There are many guides online and you can start with Apple’s website.
I am not into animation…
it got stuck on the blue screen and nothing seems to work, thank god i did my sister’s first, i’m not upgrading at all
OMG!!!!
I loooooove itttt!!!! LOL
If Fullmetal Alchemist had a dance I would gladly do it and put it in youtube LOOOL :D
Watashi wa tokyo suki!!!!
