Haruhi goes retro in Haruhi-san
by Dale North, 09/10/2007
Haruhi goes retro in Haruhi-san photo

This video parodies the visual style of the classic Japanese comic Sazae-san (サザエさん), which ran in the Asahi Shinbum from 1946 to 1974. It also uses the actual opening theme from the Sazae-san animation to make a new Haruhi-themed opening. It's neat to see the cast all squiggly and hand-drawn, but the funny thing is that Haruhi seems somewhat pleasant in the video, which we all know is not normal. 

For comparison's sake, there is an example of the original animation after the jump.
