The Turn of Haruhi Suzumiya: Difference between revisions

Line 14:

* [[Agent Mulder]] and [[Agent Scully]]: Kyon and Haruhi have always had this kind of dynamic, but it’s magnified here when Kyon easily accepts the magic going on and Haruhi rejects it entirely.

* [[Anyone Can Die]]

* [[Arson Murder and Jaywalking]]: Disscussed by Kyon when he mentions Jaywalking is as far as he’ll stretch his morals in a situation like this.

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: Disscussed by Kyon when he mentions Jaywalking is as far as he’ll stretch his morals in a situation like this.

* [[Bloody Murder]]

* {{spoiler|Bolivian Army Ending}}: {{spoiler|Kyon and Battler face off against an army of goats. They don’t make it}}

Line 25:

* [[Clarke's Third Law]]: Kyon doesn’t really care how Nagato’s, or anybody else’s powers are explained. It’s all the same as magic to a normal person.

* [[Darker and Edgier]]: Darker than Haruhi, but about on par with Umineko.

* [[Does This Remind You of Anything]]: Several scenes are [[Word of God|intentionally]] reminiscent of scenes from the [[Suzumiya Haruhi|source]] [[Umineko no Naku Koro Ni|material]].

* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: Several scenes are [[Word of God|intentionally]] reminiscent of scenes from the [[Suzumiya Haruhi|source]] [[Umineko no Naku Koro Ni|material]].

* [[Drowning My Sorrows]] {{spoiler|Battler}} has given up and fallen into this.

* [[Flat Character]]: Most Umineko characters don’t get a lot of time spared for characterization. But, Kyon’s only a single narrator and there are an awful lot of them.

Line 32:

* [[Improvised Weapon]]: Kyon's trusty curtain rod, a solid but hollow tube of brass.

* [[It Got Worse]]:

* {{spoiler|[[Kill Em All]] When the seagulls cry, there are no survivors.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Kill'Em All]] When the seagulls cry, there are no survivors.}}

* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: Everyone’s favorite narrator refuses to leave a bulb uncovered as he’s confronted with the world of Umineko.

* [[Leaning On the Fourth Wall]]: Kyon spends a lot of time doing this, especially once he figures out where he’s ended up. Coupled with the occasional [[This Is Reality]]

* [[Maybe Magic Maybe Mundane]]: It’s the whole purpose of Umineko after all.

* [[Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane]]: It’s the whole purpose of Umineko after all.

* [[Mood Whiplash]]: Kyon's narration can swap between snark and horror at the drop of a hat. Invoked in-universe when he's elated after beating {{spoiler|Belphegor}} and then his mood immediately falls when he turns around to remember {{spoiler|Jessica's corpse}}

* [[No Holds Barred Beatdown]]: Kyon gets the crap beat out of him by {{spoiler|Eva}}.

Line 43:

* Troll: {{spoiler|Bernkastel}} is revealed in the “????” chapter to be up to her usual antics.

* [[Wham Episode]]: Some of the chapters, but the Tea Party probably hits the hardest.

* [[What Happened to The Mouse]]?: Done deliberately: Kyon completely forgets about the message he finds in his bathroom. Twice.

* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]?: Done deliberately: Kyon completely forgets about the message he finds in his bathroom. Twice.

* [[What You Are in The Dark]]: {{spoiler|Battler}} is implied to have faced this and failed.
