**[00:25] ---**
Something seems off.
It just somehow felt that way.
**[00:30] ---**
I had absolutely no interest in
the prefectural baseball game on TV,
**[00:35] ---**
but I kind of ended up
rooting for the losing side.
**[00:39] ---**
Once I did, I kind of got the feeling
that Haruhi was going to start something.
**[00:47] ---**
Kyon, the phone's ringing.
**[00:48] ---**
I know, you don't have to tell me.
**[00:52] ---**
You're not doing anything today, right?
We're meeting at 2PM in front of the station.
**[00:56] ---**
Be sure to show up.
**[01:01] ---**
I didn't even say anything...
**[01:05] ---**
What?
**[01:06] ---**
I forgot to mention this--
bring a swimsuit and plenty of money.
**[01:11] ---**
And be sure to bring your bike.
That's all, over and out!
**[01:17] ---**
And again, I had the feeling that
I knew what Haruhi was going to say.
**[01:22] ---**
No, not quite.
**[01:23] ---**
To be precise, it felt like this exact
same conversation had happened before.
**[01:27] ---**
I guess it's what you would call déjà vu.
**[01:33] ---**
Summer's almost over.
**[01:47] ---**
*Day by day, everything's just so dull*
**[01:52] ---**
*That's why you need to become
someone that can just reject it all*
**[01:57] ---**
*Oh my boy, you need to be decisive*
**[02:01] ---**
*I won't deal with any lies
in this small world*
**[02:07] ---**
*I found myself on my own,
it's natural you'd fall for me*
**[02:11] ---**
*Kick away the boring ways of doing things,*
**[02:14] ---**
*I'm going to decide everything*
**[02:18] ---**
*I say, I say my heaven*
**[02:21] ---**
*Super driver, leave everything to the rush*
**[02:23] ---**
*And just keep going forward, no matter what*
**[02:25] ---**
*Surpass (Don't you stop me)
The idea of "impossible"*
**[02:29] ---**
*Take it easy, go!*
**[02:30] ---**
*I agree, it's going to be a huge victory*
**[02:32] ---**
*Of course, it'll feel pleasant,
no matter what happens*
**[02:35] ---**
*A review meeting? (Get back to wild)
Forget that, now hurry up*
**[02:40] ---**
*We haven't tried this or that,
we always do things how we want*
**[02:45] ---**
*Everything's a new experience,
let's try them out*
**[02:50] ---**
*We haven't tried this or that,
we always do things suddenly*
**[02:55] ---**
*Everything's a new experience,
what about it?*
**[03:00] ---**
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
**[03:08] ---**
Endless Eight V
**[03:09] ---**
You're late, Kyon!
**[03:10] ---**
Show some more motivation!
**[03:12] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[03:14] ---**
Sorry I made you wait.
**[03:16] ---**
I just got here, too.
**[03:18] ---**
Okay, we're all here, so let's go.
**[03:22] ---**
Where are we going?
**[03:23] ---**
To the public swimming pool, of course!
**[03:25] ---**
Well, I guess that makes sense
considering what I brought.
**[03:28] ---**
We have to do summer vacation-y
things during our summer vacation!
**[03:32] ---**
We can never get back
the time that we've lost!
**[03:36] ---**
And so we're going to do them now,
in our one and only summer as tenth graders.
**[03:41] ---**
By the way, we're going to the pool by bike.
**[03:44] ---**
Did you ride your bikes, too?
**[03:46] ---**
No, the only two bikes
we have are yours and mine.
**[03:53] ---**
Kyon, you'd better not lose to Koizumi.
**[03:56] ---**
This train is leaving the station!
**[03:59] ---**
No psychic powers allowed!
**[04:01] ---**
Hurry up and park your bikes, you two.
**[04:05] ---**
Kyon, we're about to go have fun.
This is no time to be exhausted.
**[04:08] ---**
Whose fault do you think this is?
**[04:10] ---**
Oh, the scent of chlorine.
This really makes it feel like a pool!
**[04:19] ---**
Hurry up and get in!
The water's warm so it feels fine!
**[04:22] ---**
Can't she read the "no diving"
signs posted everywhere?
**[04:25] ---**
That looks like fun.
**[04:27] ---**
She has some rather normal ways
of enjoying her time, don't you think?
**[04:34] ---**
Miss Suzumiya, laughing and
having a good time like that,
**[04:37] ---**
isn't likely to shake up the world, after all.
**[04:40] ---**
I hope that's the case...
**[04:44] ---**
What's wrong?
**[04:45] ---**
Oh, it's nothing...
**[04:50] ---**
It's probably just my imagination.
**[04:52] ---**
Let's get ready to go in, too.
**[05:15] ---**
It's so bitter. One more cup, please.
**[05:25] ---**
It feels like I've seen this scene once before.
**[05:28] ---**
Where Nagato kind of looks like she's bored...
**[05:31] ---**
Kyon!
**[05:34] ---**
Right, and then Haruhi says this...
**[05:38] ---**
These two are my brigade members.
**[05:41] ---**
They'll do anything you ask,
so ask for anything you want!
**[05:44] ---**
Okay, let's have some fun!
We're going to play water dodge ball.
**[05:49] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[05:51] ---**
Well, déjà vu isn't all that uncommon.
**[05:57] ---**
I thought about what we'll be doing
from here on. What do you think?
**[06:01] ---**
What is that?
**[06:02] ---**
It's a schedule of how we'll spend
**[06:02] ---**
Things we have to do during our summer vacation
**[06:04] ---**
the rest of our short summer vacation.
**[06:06] ---**
I realized that we only have
two weeks of summer vacation left.
**[06:12] ---**
That fact blew me away.
**[06:14] ---**
We still have so much left to do,
but we've only got this much time left!
**[06:20] ---**
We're going to pick up the pace!
**[06:22] ---**
All this in just two weeks?
**[06:25] ---**
Is there anything else you want to do, Mikuru?
**[06:28] ---**
Umm... I'd like to try goldfish scooping.
**[06:31] ---**
Okay! Goldfish scooping...
**[06:35] ---**
Pardon me for a moment.
**[06:42] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:43] ---**
We're starting tomorrow!
**[06:44] ---**
Is there a place nearby with a Bon festival?
A fireworks show works, too.
**[06:49] ---**
I'll check around.
I'll contact you when I find out.
**[06:52] ---**
Don't forget about the goldfish scooping!
**[06:54] ---**
It's Mikuru's one request, after all.
**[06:57] ---**
Roger that.
**[06:59] ---**
All right, then, we're done for today!
**[07:02] ---**
If you'll excuse me.
**[07:03] ---**
I have to go, too...
**[07:16] ---**
Nagato.
**[07:18] ---**
No, it's nothing important.
**[07:21] ---**
How have you been? Everything fine?
**[07:25] ---**
Fine.
**[07:26] ---**
I see. That's good to hear.
**[07:34] ---**
What the heck? Why did I talk to her?
**[07:42] ---**
Your attention please, we have a lost child.
Five-year-old Takashi Satou is...
**[07:47] ---**
A Bon festival, huh?
**[07:49] ---**
I guess it makes sense
for there to be this many people.
**[07:55] ---**
That tower, those vendors...
**[07:59] ---**
It's been a while since I've come to one,
but it feels like I have recently.
**[08:02] ---**
Mikuru!
**[08:03] ---**
They have goldfish scooping,
just like you wanted!
**[08:06] ---**
Be sure to catch a bunch!
**[08:07] ---**
Okay!
**[08:09] ---**
Shall we play, too?
How about seeing who can catch more?
**[08:13] ---**
I'll pass.
**[08:14] ---**
What about you, Nagato?
Want to eat something?
**[08:21] ---**
You're interested in that stuff?
**[08:23] ---**
Which one?
**[08:24] ---**
It's all right.
**[08:25] ---**
This one.
**[08:26] ---**
Right-o, that'll be 800 yen.
**[08:29] ---**
I kind of got the feeling that
Nagato had been helping us out,
**[08:32] ---**
so I thought it would be appropriate
for me to at least buy her that, but...
**[08:35] ---**
Hamster Fishing
**[08:35] ---**
Thirteen! Wow, what a haul!
**[08:39] ---**
But I don't need so many, so I just kept one.
**[08:42] ---**
And one for Mikuru, too.
**[08:46] ---**
You can have one, but only one.
**[08:49] ---**
Thanks.
**[08:51] ---**
Huh? What's with the mask, Yuki?
**[08:54] ---**
I bought it.
**[08:56] ---**
I see.
**[09:11] ---**
No Obtrusive Fireworks Allowed
**[09:11] ---**
It was summer, and summer vacation.
**[09:14] ---**
That's why I wanted to forget about it,
**[09:17] ---**
but there was one thing lingering in my mind.
**[09:20] ---**
Haruhi.
**[09:21] ---**
It's fine to want to play around, but are
you finished with your summer homework?
**[09:24] ---**
What? You can finish homework
like that in just three days.
**[09:29] ---**
Three days?!
**[09:30] ---**
You get that stuff out of the way so you can
have fun without having to worry about it.
**[09:37] ---**
Why is she so smart?
**[09:39] ---**
It seems like the guys
up in heaven that were divvying up
**[09:41] ---**
the stats for us were being pretty lax about it.
**[09:44] ---**
Everyone, tomorrow we'll be catching bugs!
**[09:46] ---**
Whoever catches the most bugs...
**[09:50] ---**
Okay, they'll get to be
the brigade leader for a day!
**[09:54] ---**
No thanks!
**[09:54] ---**
That sounds interesting.
**[09:56] ---**
Are any bugs okay?
**[09:58] ---**
Hmm... only cicadas!
**[10:01] ---**
That's it, this will be the SOS Brigade's
Cicada Capturing Competition!
**[10:07] ---**
The next day was yet again a beautiful day.
**[10:11] ---**
It was on this day that we had the
SOS Brigade Cicada Capturing Competition.
**[10:15] ---**
That's sour!
**[10:16] ---**
That's not a cicada.
**[10:18] ---**
A yanbaru long-armed scarab?!
**[10:20] ---**
It looks like each of us did try,
in their own way,
**[10:23] ---**
but of course, or something to that effect,
the winner ended up being Haruhi.
**[10:28] ---**
A catch and release attitude
is important, right?
**[10:32] ---**
If we let them go, then they
might come back to repay us.
**[10:36] ---**
What could a cicada do,
even if it did come back?
**[10:42] ---**
There you go! Go back to the mountains!
**[10:49] ---**
For some reason, I kind of
feel like Pandora opening her box.
**[10:54] ---**
W-Welcome!
**[10:56] ---**
The next day, we met up, even though
we had no idea what was going on.
**[11:01] ---**
And we remained in the dark even as
we were made to wear frog costumes...
**[11:04] ---**
and then pass out balloons in front of
a supermarket as our part-time job.
**[11:13] ---**
I really understand how Unit-0 felt
when it got hit by that beam.
**[11:16] ---**
Good work, everyone.
**[11:18] ---**
What's with this difference
in how we're being treated?
**[11:20] ---**
Thanks for the hard work.
The manager is thankful.
**[11:23] ---**
I don't care about his thanks.
Where's our pay?
**[11:27] ---**
This is it.
**[11:30] ---**
I've wanted this for a while.
**[11:33] ---**
We worked, sweat pouring
down our foreheads, for that?
**[11:38] ---**
Let's hang this up
in the clubroom as a memento.
**[11:40] ---**
Mikuru, you can wear it whenever
you want. You have my permission!
**[11:45] ---**
Okay...
**[11:48] ---**
What?
**[11:49] ---**
Oh, nothing.
**[11:50] ---**
Don't look at me.
**[11:51] ---**
Come on, Mikuru!
**[11:53] ---**
M-Maybe later!
**[11:56] ---**
Your popsicle is going to fall down.
**[12:01] ---**
That night, a single phone call
stole me away from my slumber.
**[12:06] ---**
The number you have called is...
**[12:11] ---**
What in the world?!
**[12:14] ---**
Kyon...
**[12:15] ---**
Miss Asahina?
**[12:17] ---**
Yes, it's me...
**[12:20] ---**
Something... very not good has...
At this rate, I...
**[12:26] ---**
Umm...
**[12:27] ---**
Hello, this is Koizumi.
**[12:29] ---**
Why are you with Miss Asahina at this hour?
**[12:33] ---**
Certain circumstances came up.
**[12:35] ---**
Would it be possible
for you to come join us right now?
**[12:45] ---**
What in the world happened, Miss Asahina?
**[12:49] ---**
Kyon... I... can't go back to the fu--
**[12:57] ---**
In other words, this is what's going on.
**[13:00] ---**
We are going through an
eternal loop of the same time period.
**[13:04] ---**
Even if you say something as impossible
as that with a smile on your face...
**[13:08] ---**
Koizumi, do you realize what you're saying?
**[13:12] ---**
I do. Much more than I wish I did.
**[13:16] ---**
I had just been speaking with Miss Asahina.
**[13:18] ---**
Call me too, when you have talks with her.
**[13:21] ---**
And as a result,
what we realized was that recently,
**[13:24] ---**
the flow of time was a bit strange.
**[13:26] ---**
You might want to
credit this to Miss Asahina.
**[13:29] ---**
Thanks to her, I was able to confirm it.
**[13:32] ---**
Confirm what?
**[13:36] ---**
That we have experienced
the same span of time numerous times.
**[13:40] ---**
You said that earlier.
**[13:42] ---**
To be precise, we've been repeating
the time from August 17th to the 31st.
**[13:48] ---**
We're in the middle of
an endless summer vacation.
**[13:52] ---**
Well, it is summer vacation, but...
**[13:55] ---**
It's a never-ending endless summer.
**[13:58] ---**
This world has lost all time
after September 1st.
**[14:04] ---**
Who'd believe that?
**[14:06] ---**
We'd like for you to believe it.
**[14:10] ---**
Umm... I'll explain, too.
**[14:15] ---**
Well... because of "classified information,"
**[14:17] ---**
I'm always contacting the future
and "classified information" -ing,
**[14:23] ---**
but I hadn't received any "classified
information" for about a week or so,
**[14:29] ---**
which I thought was strange.
**[14:31] ---**
And so I "classified information"...
**[14:34] ---**
I was so surprised I tried to
"classified information,"
**[14:40] ---**
but it was completely "classified information."
**[14:43] ---**
Oh, what do I do?
**[14:47] ---**
Are we trapped inside
one of those closed spaces?
**[14:52] ---**
That's not it.
**[14:53] ---**
A single portion of time has been torn away.
**[14:57] ---**
At exactly the point when
it becomes midnight on August 31st,
**[15:01] ---**
everything resets, and we go back
to August 17th. That's the process.
**[15:06] ---**
So what about our...
no, humanity's memories?
**[15:10] ---**
Those are reset as well.
Everything starts over from the beginning.
**[15:16] ---**
So you mean that time
does that thing that you mentioned.
**[15:19] ---**
Well, we do have someone from
the future here, I guess it can't be helped.
**[15:23] ---**
Oh no, Miss Asahina isn't involved in this.
**[15:26] ---**
Okay then, what's the culprit?
**[15:29] ---**
I would guess Miss Suzumiya.
**[15:31] ---**
I'm sure she doesn't realize it,
but somewhere inside of her...
**[15:35] ---**
...is a desire to not let summer vacation end.
**[15:37] ---**
What the heck? Do you mean
she feels regret over something?
**[15:41] ---**
That's what I believe.
**[15:44] ---**
Perhaps she feels that there's something left
**[15:47] ---**
that she wants to do
during our summer vacation?
**[15:51] ---**
I've been wondering this since I got here,
but you seem awfully cheerful about this.
**[15:55] ---**
It's because we've finally
been able to solve the mystery
**[15:58] ---**
of the frequent feelings
of déjà vu that I've had recently.
**[16:01] ---**
Now that I think about it,
those inexplicable feelings may have been
**[16:05] ---**
remnants from when
our memories have been reset.
**[16:09] ---**
Is it possible that other people
across the world feel this, too?
**[16:13] ---**
It doesn't seem that way.
You and I are a special case.
**[16:18] ---**
It appears that the people
who are closest to Miss Suzumiya
**[16:21] ---**
are able to sense this strangeness.
**[16:23] ---**
What about Haruhi?
Does she sense any of this at all?
**[16:27] ---**
Not at all, it seems. It would
probably be bad for us if she did.
**[16:33] ---**
However, I believe that there is
one person who remembers everything,
**[16:38] ---**
more than the déjà vu that we do.
**[16:45] ---**
Is that right?
**[16:47] ---**
It is.
**[16:48] ---**
You remember all of it?
**[16:50] ---**
Right.
**[16:52] ---**
So, how many times have we
repeated all of this, this time?
**[16:57] ---**
This is the 15,521st time.
**[17:02] ---**
15,521?
**[17:07] ---**
What do you mean by 15,521?
**[17:13] ---**
Are you serious?
**[17:15] ---**
I am.
**[17:17] ---**
You're saying that we've done
the exact same things that many times?
**[17:22] ---**
They're not all guaranteed to happen.
**[17:24] ---**
Out of 15,521 repetitions,
there are two occasions,
**[17:29] ---**
#2,391 and ♪11,054,
where we did not go to a Bon festival.
**[17:34] ---**
A pattern where we did go to a Bon festival,
**[17:37] ---**
but did not go to a goldfish
scooping stand, occurred 437 times.
**[17:41] ---**
We had a part-time job
9,048 times, and when we did,
**[17:45] ---**
there are six different
kinds of jobs that we did.
**[17:47] ---**
In addition to handing out balloons,
we also worked as movers, cashiers,
**[17:50] ---**
handed out flyers, worked as call center--
**[17:51] ---**
I got it, that's enough.
**[17:58] ---**
15,521 times, that's what Nagato said.
**[18:04] ---**
Times two weeks, hmm,
that's around 595 years.
**[18:13] ---**
She alone has memories of all that time,
repeating it all over and over...
**[18:21] ---**
Nagato, how must it feel to experience
that same period of time over and over again?
**[18:30] ---**
I've heard yet another crazy story.
**[18:35] ---**
I wonder if they exist.
**[18:36] ---**
If what exist?
**[18:38] ---**
Martians.
**[18:39] ---**
I kind of don't want them to.
**[18:40] ---**
It doesn't look like anyone's on the surface,
**[18:43] ---**
so they're probably
a reserved people, living underground.
**[18:47] ---**
When man finally sets foot on Mars,
**[18:49] ---**
I'm sure that they'll come out
from under their cover and welcome us,
**[18:53] ---**
saying, "Welcome to Mars!"
**[18:55] ---**
How about if they just appear normally?
**[18:57] ---**
Oh, I'm bored of this.
UFOs. Let's look for UFOs.
**[19:02] ---**
The next day, we went stargazing.
**[19:05] ---**
The location was Nagato's apartment,
**[19:07] ---**
and the telescope was one
that Koizumi had gotten for us.
**[19:12] ---**
Exactly what does she want to do?
**[19:14] ---**
Now what could that be?
**[19:16] ---**
If we could figure that out,
this would all be solved...
**[19:20] ---**
How about trying this out?
**[19:22] ---**
Give Miss Suzumiya
a sudden embrace from behind
**[19:24] ---**
then whisper "I love you" into her ear.
**[19:28] ---**
And who would be doing that?
**[19:30] ---**
Is there anyone else who could
fill the role other than you?
**[19:34] ---**
No, I refuse.
**[19:36] ---**
All right, how about if I do it?
**[19:41] ---**
I'm kidding. I'm lacking
a certain something for the role.
**[19:45] ---**
And all that would do is cause
unnecessary confusion in Miss Suzumiya.
**[19:57] ---**
Hey, Nagato,
**[19:59] ---**
you were aware of this loop
before Miss Asahina said anything, right?
**[20:03] ---**
Yes.
**[20:05] ---**
If that's the case,
why didn't you say anything?
**[20:07] ---**
SOS Brigade Test of Courage Challenge
**[20:07] ---**
Leave the doll here as proof!
**[20:08] ---**
It's my job to observe.
**[20:14] ---**
I see...
**[20:16] ---**
We continued to run through
a torrent of summer vacation events.
**[20:20] ---**
We went to a real fireworks show,
**[20:22] ---**
and we even took part
in a goby fishing tournament.
**[20:26] ---**
We also went to a batting center,
watched some movies,
**[20:29] ---**
went to the beach, went bowling,
and even sang karaoke.
**[20:32] ---**
We were always doing something.
**[20:35] ---**
Of course, I knew that this
wasn't going to satisfy Haruhi.
**[20:39] ---**
Even so, there wasn't
anything I could do about it,
**[20:43] ---**
and the last days of our
summer vacation ticked away.
**[20:49] ---**
And so we ended up at August 30th...
**[21:01] ---**
With this, we've finished everything on our list.
**[21:05] ---**
Hey, no scribbling.
**[21:10] ---**
I wonder if this was good enough.
**[21:14] ---**
But, hmm... I guess this works.
**[21:17] ---**
Hey, is there anything else you want to do?
**[21:27] ---**
That's fine, then.
**[21:28] ---**
We were able to do a lot this summer,
so that's enough, right?
**[21:33] ---**
No, it's not. You're still not satisfied.
**[21:38] ---**
Okay, we're done for today.
**[21:40] ---**
I had tomorrow set aside just in case,
but you can just take the day off.
**[21:45] ---**
Let's meet again in the clubroom
the day after tomorrow.
**[21:56] ---**
Wait... Haruhi...
**[22:00] ---**
Okay, we're done for today.
**[22:02] ---**
I had tomorrow set aside just in case,
but you can just take the day off.
**[22:06] ---**
Let's meet again in the clubroom
the day after tomorrow.
**[22:12] ---**
I can't let Haruhi leave.
**[22:16] ---**
If she goes, we'll end up
repeating these past two weeks
**[22:20] ---**
for the some-thousandth time.
**[22:22] ---**
Okay, we're done for today.
**[22:25] ---**
I had tomorrow set aside just in case,
but you can just take the day off.
**[22:29] ---**
Let's meet again in the clubroom
the day after tomorrow.
**[22:31] ---**
What should I do?
What should I say?
**[22:37] ---**
There must have been a hint
somewhere in what Haruhi said.
**[22:41] ---**
But what was it?
**[22:43] ---**
What has she said up to this point?
**[22:46] ---**
I don't know... I can't remember...
**[22:49] ---**
Okay, we're done for today.
**[22:52] ---**
I had tomorrow set aside just in case,
but you can just take the day off.
**[22:56] ---**
Let's meet again in the clubroom
the day after tomorrow.
**[23:04] ---**
Whatever, it doesn't matter anymore.
**[23:08] ---**
August 31st. I haven't touched my homework.
**[23:12] ---**
Oh, forget it.
**[23:14] ---**
If we're just going to do it all over again,
then there's no point to doing it.
**[23:22] ---**
Whether tomorrow comes or not, I'll leave it
to the me at that time to deal with it.
**[24:04] ---**
*It fell from the sky*
**[24:07] ---**
*With all of the wishes that were made upon it*
**[24:09] ---**
*Maybe it was a little too heavy for a single star*
**[24:15] ---**
*Something just doesn't seem right*
**[24:17] ---**
*The image of you in my mind has vanished*
**[24:20] ---**
*Can I say that I remember you clearly?*
**[24:24] ---**
*Stop!*
**[24:26] ---**
*The past belongs to me*
**[24:30] ---**
*Of course I don't want
to trade it with anyone else*
**[24:34] ---**
*That's because*
**[24:36] ---**
*It was my birthday,
and when we saw each other*
**[24:41] ---**
*We could see the first dream*
**[24:43] ---**
*That we had when we were born*
**[24:46] ---**
*Worrying about "what do I do?"*
**[24:51] ---**
*Is laughable when I think about it now*
**[24:55] ---**
*I've already forgotten it*
**[24:58] ---**
*Let's search for you*
