Haruhi update! The ASOS Brigade is back?!
by Jon Snyder, 01/26/2010
Haruhi update! The ASOS Brigade is back?! photo

This post is under construction... again.

I have no answers, only questions.

Is an American release of Haruhi's second season just around the corner? Will Christina Vee be the new voice of Haruhi? Does Karrie Shirou make a good Mikuru? Is Gina Li bland enough to be Yuki? What does Super Driver sound like in English? Is Bandai's viral advertising ingenious, or just annoying? Watch the video after the break and decide for yourself.

All hail Haruhi!

I wish they would just come out an announce it already. I don't want another Kannagi style release though since I might not have the money right then.
 
Irothtin

Weren't these special features on the Haruhi DVDs?
 
Tokyogetter

OK... who else watched the first minute and thought we were being duped into watching porn?
 
Jon Snyder

Acutally, Irothtin, this is how they announced and promoted the first English Haruhi DVD release.

Also, I can't spell "actually" tonight. >_

For some reason, Christina Vee's nose in the header image bugs me.
 
Irothtin

Oh, that makes sense. I only knew that they were on the DVDs.
 
Guncannon

I don't know...I just don't know what to say. Just plain weird.

I thought Christina Vee's version of Super Driver wasn't that bad. Though I'm somewhat skeptical of the other VA's.

I guess they need to do all they can to bring in new customers, since anyone who knows Haruhi will be aware of the drudgery that is Endless Eight, and might stay away from the DVD's.
 
Shiro Shishi

If Cristina Vee becomes the new Haruhi I SHALL!!!....I'd actually dig it! Love Cristina's work.

And her Super Driver totally kicks ass. The English Aya Hirano if ya ask me.
 
Rewarp

Holy FSM! Why haven't I heard about Christina Vee before this post?

That's the best English language version of an animé song I have ever heard.

/Goes Vee-hunting

I was excepting the song to be cringe worthy but I was pleasantly surprised. I might actually buy the second season just to watch it with English voice acting, maybe that'll make Endless Eight a bit more fun.

Also Christina Vee IS Haruhi.
 
gricomet

Yeah. I wonder how soon the release actually will be and as importantly how will Endless Eight be bundled.
 
The Lost Horizon

I still suffer from Endless Eight Stockholm Syndrome.
 
Leeroy Walker

Endless Eight? Hmm... And Super Driver? God Knows...
 
matty

Ah, I miss the original brigade in the first viral video.

"Soooooo faaaar away..."
 
THE KING OF HEARTS

I'm not sure what to say other than Cristina Vee is hot.

 
pastamobsta

Way to promote other Bandai merchandise by having Nagato read Lucky Star.
 
vedicardi

Holy shit the audio is fucking terrible and that producer is the gayest man on the god damn planet.

but yuki just put me in a god damn trance so...

but yeah seriously the people that made this video have no fucking clue what they're doing hahaha
 
Jon Snyder

Holy shit vedicardi doesn't realize that the "fucking terrible" audio was intentional and is a frequent feature of viral marketing

but yeah seriously he needs to learn how to use capitalization and punctuation he has no fucking clue what he's doing hahaha
 
Duckbaker

0o Wtf.

I, I dunno what to think.
Super driver is way weird in English yet I find myself strangely satisfied with the result. I still like the Hirano's voice more though, no one can match that Haruhi.
 
anharmyenone

Kicks. Ass.
