The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2009)
Synopsis
The story
Kyon has found himself dragged through many adventures as of late—all because of the SOS Brigade club and its excitable leader, Haruhi Suzumiya. He has stopped believing in the supernatural long ago, but after being forced to join this club based solely on that, he has seen things that cannot be explained logically. Joining Kyon on his various misadventures is the shy and soft-spoken Mikuru Asahina, the bookish Yuki Nagato, and the ever-cheerful Itsuki Koizumi. Whether it is summer vacation or a school festival, things involving their club and Haruhi herself always end up becoming strange. Note: This is a re-airing of the original Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu series, taken from the DVD release and aired in chronological order, adding 14 additional episodes with new content. These new episodes are episodes 8 (Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody), 12-19 (Endless Eight), and 20-24 (The Sigh of Suzumiya Haruhi Parts 1-5).

The Endless Eight arc may be the worst arc in any television series I've ever watched.
@Mysticgoose153/439 helpful
This season had no right to be as long and annoying as it was
@CodeBlazeFate45/140 helpful
Endless Eight is not a bad arc.
@Tolnin42/51 helpful
Haruhi Suzumiya is a classic that deserves near all the hate it gets. [Spoilers]
