Does anyone else remember this as a fridge horror series?
I don't know if you guys have seen the spin off series, but Haruhi shows up one episode, tricks the un-roboted girl into writing the sign, and within 2 episodes she is relobotomized with her memories of the original series. Haruhi is a literal cognito hazard.
It's the only way to explain endless 8. This bitch literally freezes the world for 15000 loops and it's not smooth. They are slowly becoming self aware over every tens of thousands of iterations.
There are so many worrying implications and plot threads underneath the surface I'm amazed it hasn't become the subject of a bunch of gay youtube theories.
