ASOS Says Haruhi S2 Gets Complete Box Set Release

Eeeenjoy!

The last time the ASOS Brigade posted their Return of the ASOS Brigade video, there were "technical difficulties" that prevented us from knowing some of the details about The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya season 2 release. But now the video has been reposted with the details left in-- and the video reversed, which I believe is a reference to sneaky otaku who manage to post the OPs and EDs of shows to YouTube flipped in order to keep them under the radar (something I noticed a lot for Durarara!!).
 
 
For those of you at work or too busy to watch: the series is going to be released in one box set. 
 
...And that's pretty much all you get. But hey, you can listen to Cristina Vee's take on Super Driver again!

  Why can't they just announce things properly instead of doing all this video stuff?

I swear i already saw this? is anime vice stuck in a time loop?

Smart move on their part. Not only are box sets much better suited to the North American market, but this will avoid some frustration when it comes to Endless Eight.

When you said that they released a second video that was pretty much the same as the first one I started to suspect this was some "Endless 8"esque prank. Also Patricia Ja Lee is still a better ASOS Haruhi and Wendee Lee is a better voice actor for Haruhi. (based on comparison between Christina Vee's fandub of God Knows and Wendee Lee doing the official dub) 
 
Also I love complete collections, always the best option.

Defiantly smart move considering Bandai's really messed up marketing recently.  Now all we need now is a release date.

Or are you the one in the time loop?  Unfortunately you wont figure it out for another 8 episodes.

@GrandMarshal: You did see most of it before-- but as I mentioned, they cut out bits of it as "technical difficulties." That's why I said what the difference was (that they announce that the second season will be a complete box set). :)

Well, that was smart. Let's hope that they are able to get it out the door sometime this year.
