I believe ‘our’ views of the Simpsons and Futurama are a lot different to ‘their’ views of Haruhi and Lucky Star. I think I’m leaning more to ‘their’ side since I love the Haruhi references, and am sure a lot do.

@tommykn — while that may be very true, it doesn’t invalidate my analogy to Futurama/Simpsons. Everyone who watched Futurama knew Simpsons for sure, but that doesn’t mean they should have put tons of blatant Simpsons references *everywhere* and I’d say most folks are glad they didn’t.

Basically Lucky Star is starting to lose a bit of its appeal for me. There’s less and less *actual humor* and more and more referencial humor as far as I can tell.

Maybe ya all are right but don’t forget they made the show for japanese it’s not supposed for you refugees to watch, and in japan nearly every teen that watches anime know of haruhi suzumiya.

I feel like this episode is tried to promote the second of haruhi. My favorite part was the Konata-Haruhi transformation. I laugh my ass off on that part.

Hey, you forgot the super show of Akira in that Karaoke xD. Leaving Aside the references to Suzumiya, that was the best part of this Ep.

There is just a bit too much Haruhi this time around… considering it’s the highlight of the episode, and isn’t funny as a standalone piece, it really requires familiarity with Haruhi Suzumiya for the episode to be fully appreciated. I’m not sure I like that about it. If I wanted friends to see this show, I’d have to tell them to watch an episode of Haruhi first.

That, coupled with the Haruhi references they’ve started putting *all over the place* is really turning this show into a complete sellout. Imagine if Futurama was so saturated with Simpsons references… I find it all to be a little lame, to be quite honest.

OMG way cool. If only BitTorrent could go faster… I’m trying to get this episode right now, while evading those Witch Hunter Robins at Odex.
