What the heck is going on when Yuki is listening to the radio + reading?


What the heck is going on when Yuki is listening to the radio + reading in the "filler" episode where they're all just sitting around on a cold, wet day? I mean, there's 5 minutes straight of voices coming from the radio that are way too quiet, accompanied by a largely static shot of Yuki reading a book. I watched it again with subtitles and they're completely nonsensical.

That was honestly my favorite part of that episode. It was just so random and outlandish, that I loved it. I watched it dubbed, so it was fun hearing the main VAs playing around like that

It was filler, no more, no less. It only exists to waste time for an episode that didn't meet the allotted running time. If this wasn't obvious the first time it was played (which apparently it wasn't), it is when they repeated the exact same meaningless sequence again a minute or so after the first. It's part of the reason why Someday In The Rain was the worst season 1 episode. I have no comment regarding someone somehow thinking this was the best part of the episode.

Of course, at least we didn't have to watch Someday In The Rain eight times. That's what counts as a bonus nowadays in Haruhiville.

Sorry I offended you so passionately. I thought that part was funny. Maybe I'm not enough of a Haruhi fan to care about filler episodes.

I LOVED that part too! Completely random, unnecessary, unconventional and humorous in my opinion. The creators of the show are very original and daring to say the least. Why this opinion would offend anyone is beyond comprehension, its simply a matter of taste.
