This was...eh? Each short episode has its own little story, with a couple longer-lasting bits that reappear here and there. I enjoyed the ongoing bit with Yuki and Asakura, but that's about it. Some episodes were funny, others I just wanted to end. It's impressive how some 5-minute episodes were so uninteresting that I would check multiple times throughout it to see when it would end, how does 5 minutes feel that long?
The art style wasn't really for me, and I'm not sure if it's just the way I watched it or if it's the show, but it was really low-quality. I couldn't watch it full-screened on my PC otherwise the pixilation would annoy me. On a phone it'd be good, and not full-screened on my PC it was okAy.
I wouldn't really recommend this but if you're bored or REALLY liked the main serie…

So I’m not really sure about this show. I am not going to say if you liked the normal show that you will like this one. I’m not even really sure if we could call this the same as the main TV show as the art style, the humor, and even sometimes the idea of the characters is a bit different. Each episode is about 5 minutes long and consists of even smaller clips that mimic a day in the life style show. It reminds me a lot of Azumanga Daioh with the humor as each little skit seems to be trying to make a joke and though most are rather good, some feel like they fall slightly flat. I have a small feeling it’s because of the culture and because of the dub that was done.
I did sort of like the funny story lines that they did with Yuki and a really small Ryoko in where Ryoko was played off as so…

Suzumiya Haruhi-chan no Yuuutsu is a collection of comedic shorts, stuff like character development and plot are not exist.Suzumiya Haruhi-chan no Yuuutsu relies on the audience’s previous knowledge of the characters and presents fantasy scenarios that explore the extreme “what ifs” the original show could not possibly cover. The biggest strength of Suzumiya Haruhi-chan no Yuuutsu is the varying length of each episode. This allows the anime to quickly hit a joke and then stop before it gets old… most of the time. Also, unlike Lucky Star , there is actually a gag in each scene,which means no more awkward moments of reflection when a scene seemingly cuts off without a punchline.due to its narrowed focus on comedy, I found it even funnier than the original anime.

Throughout all of human history, we have been searching for the an answer. Who created us, why, when, and how? These are the questions that have pushed scientific discovery, religious fanatics, and Nagaru Tanigawa. These questions have pushed him so far as to create an alright anime about our beloved creator, a high school girl. This is The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.
Story
The story, if you’ll call it that, is about our wonderful Nick Caraway character, Kyon, and his trip though high school as he is accompanied by a miss Haruhi Suzumiya (Who we will refer to as HZ). The main meat and potatoes of this anime is that HZ makes a club to find and meet otherworldly beings, time travelers, and espers. Little does she know, the 3 other members of her club are an otherworldly being, a time tr…

Alright, seeing as how TMoHS is my absolute favorite anime of all time, this review will be extremely biased and may not be helpful at all. That being said here is my review:
TMoHCS is basically a completely non-cannon and chibi version of TMoHS that is basically a little short-series consisting of about 3-5 minute episodes of hilarity.
TMoHCS was heavily enjoyable for big fans of the series but would probably be mediocre with a couple of big laughs here and there for people who didn't like TMoHS or aren't fans of the series. This is pretty much just for when you're bored and would like to watch something slightly different.
I enjoyed this heavily because I love the characters from TMoHS and this is really just a filler while I waited for the third season of TMoHS to come out.
Hope I helpe…

Let's start this rev...(smacked by a camera).
Haruhi-chan does not follow a plot but sticks to the overall premise of Suzumiya Haruhi. This is good news for both fans of the show and even the haters of the show. There is no denying the originality behiind a god walking amongst us and is unaware of her powers.Some did like the way the original show was executed, fine. However if you still find the show has potential then Haruhi chan is your go to. The show has fun with all aspects of the original story but just don't ex[ect, well, a story.
The show is drawn in chibi form of all characters. The normal version is used for paradoy of serious moments. The background art is very simple and colorful, that helps add a lighter mood to the show which is very appropriate for the show.
The sound is…

I think they kept going back from 2D animation to 3D computer graphics, which was... odd. I would have prefered just the 2D art. But it didn't bother me too much. Each episode was cute and funny, just the kind of thing you can just sit back and relax to. I watched it in just afew hours, so even though there are 25 episode's, they were all around 5 minutes each, the longest being about 8 minutes. The art style in Haruhi-chan was very cute, the character's all looked very interesting, especially Yuki and Asakura. *COUGH* This anime kind of made me want to ship YukiXAsakura. :"D Anyways, I cannot say too much about it, but it is worth watching. Thank you for reading!

Story: 9, Art: 8, Sound: 9, Character: 10, Overall: 9
This ONA was incredibly witty, I think I laughed every single episode. It was kept very compact and well paced making every four minute story seem much longer than it really was. The art was of course chibi but very smooth. The backgrounds were oddly well done which I didn't expect from just a simple extra to a main series. Voice acting was superb. Music was appropriate for comedy's sake. I loved how it seemed to develop every character's other side, especially Yuki's "pastimes". A must watch whether you've seen the main series or not. If you enjoy humour, this is for you!
Parental Caution:
Rated PG-13

Okay, the only reason that I'm still a Haruhi fan is for two reasons: 1) the original Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya 2006 and 2) this ONA. ^^
The original idea of The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya came from a parody comic series that pretty much subtly made fun of the original anime. And, I'm not usually one for these kinds of parodies, but I just couldn't resist~! ^^ Also, I love how evil Yuki is shown to be in the series... *devious grin* Not to mention that random lion that was thrown into the mix as well... ^^;;;;
The art... Well, let's just say that it's very rare to see chibis still keep their proper anatomy and such in tact. This, is a good thing. Haruhi-chan Suzumiya has managed to pull this off quite well. But, then again, we are talking about Kyoto Animation. Also, the firs…

In the never-ending wait for a real second season of Haruhi, Kadokawa decided to present us with this short web series called the Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya. And to be fair and honest, these series of short mini-episodes was more enjoyable that I would have ever expected. Here is a short and fast review with its ups and downs
Story:
+ Nice and funny situations ensured in every episode
+ Many overused themes in animes but taken to the extreme for extra lols
- Could have been a little longer in length per episode but thats just me wanting more
- Those wanting actual substance should go look somewhere else
Art:
+ Rich in color
+ Nice blend of chibi and normal character animations, making some scenes even funnier
+ Chibi forms look very cute
- Obvious ploy to save animation budget…
