The Games of Haruhi Suzumiya

I was planning to post this last night originally, but something went wrong with the audio recording (it sounded terrible) and the PSP battery was close to dead, so rather than reattempting to record, I put it on its charger instead. Now it is charged up again, I've recorded the audio and am ready to post this update!

Reaching the end of our 48 hour period means going back to the start again, which means waking up, going to school and listening to Asakura sulk about how our exhibit sucks again.

... And now the audio is refusing to upload. I'm just going to go ahead and post this thing and add the audio in later. Audio has been added.

... So, I claimed that the Pokémon novel was to be a "side project", but I couldn't put it down and somehow chapter 1 is available already! (Have you ever wondered what it was like for Delia Ketchum raising Ash as a single mother? Or the history of Pallet Town and the Oak family? Now you can find out!) I've started a little bit of work on chapter 2 already. I'll try not to neglect Haruhi too much...?

Work is still insanely busier than usual. Hopefully we'll be able to get enough new staff to alleviate the burden soon...? Anyway, that's irrelevant to this. Enjoy new Suzumiya Haruhi no Tsuisou!

Oh, also, the Yuki-chan OVA is apparently out. I haven't watched it as of yet, but I have the special edition of volume 9 of the manga which includes the OVA on its way to me in the mail, so once I have it and watch it, I'll provide my thoughts like I did back during the broadcast.

Have you ever felt like the universe itself was conspiring against you? Because I'm pretty sure it was conspiring against me making this update.

First off, I was recording the audio for this update (when recording the audio, I put the game on autoscroll but I like to focus on what's going on so I can skip any unvoiced inner monologue to prevent dead air) and my mother barged into the room with a half peeled banana telling me I should eat more fruit, as I did my best to wave her off and tell her I was in the middle of something that required proper attention, she fumbled the banana and dropped it on my keyboard. I was fine to leave the banana there until the recording was complete, however my mum picked it up and handed it to me providing further distraction. (As such, you'll hear some silence matching up with Kyon's inner monologues in between some lines towards the end of this update's audio as I'm not wasting another 8 minutes redoing it.)

Then Imgur had issues, meaning it was damn near impossible for me to upload the images properly. And the exact moment I actually got onto Imgur, the batteries in my mouse died. I searched the house for batteries and found a heap of AA batteries and only one AAA battery. My mouse requires 2 AAAs. As such, I had to leave the house and walk up the local mall so I could buy a packet of new batteries and come back home. My initial attempts to upload the audio and the images both fail and Imgur continues to be a pain in the ass. This has taken a lot more effort than anything that I've had pre-translated for over a month really should...
