There's a fan recut that takes all the time skip scenes and puts them in chronological order that's much more straightforward. Personally I can't imagine watching it that way, but I also refuse to acknowledge The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya except in broadcast order. There's definitely a large contingent that prefer both these media in chronological order though, so you're not alone.
Broadcast order is the true way. Chrono is for people who don't have an attention span.
I think you've replied to the wrong comment, mate.
Funnily enough, I have spoken about Haruhi quite a bit 😂.
My comment was referring to Cloud Atlas while comparing it to Haruhi as another piece of media with dramatic (and controversial) time skips.
Ohhhhh. Makes sense.
I've watched Haruhi as well 😂. I have a whole rant on the Haruhi community... Here 😂.
As someone who watched Haruhi back when it was originally broadcast, it's amazing that people are still discussing the series seventeen years later. In an era when an anime's impact seems to only last a single season before the fandom moves on, this is especially impressive. Haruhi deserves to stick around, if for no other reason than its historic value; it's difficult to describe to younger fans just what an impact the anime made on the scene when it dropped.
I feel the same way about so many shows. They're truly gems and the world is missing out.
