"chronological order" and my utter disgust for it

Rather an aggressive put down thanks, although this is MAL and everyone here seems to think being rude is cool. Almost like primary school…
But besides that, yes I failed to fully include all possibilities so I accept some unintentional fault here. It is indeed a matter of taste and choice as well as intellect, both reasons to watch in any order, as well as dub, are valid.

Really well done, lowering a discussion to mudslinging through your over sensitivity. Don’t bother replying, I’m done with your kind.

Mudslinging is when you enter a discussion and don’t reply to the OP with your own opinion, but read the replies of others looking for someone to be offended by and then continually escalate your troll behaviour over a series of poorly constructed arguments. It appears hobbits and trolls are pretty much the same species. Get help. Oh, and it seems your reason to take offence is your actual sub-50 IQ…

Well, I don't know... I think they kinda tought the non-chronological order was a bad decision once they saw how much the anime got famous. Because one season in random order is okay, but a problem is born the moment you want to make more seasons. That's why they probably aired it in chronological order the second time.

Also, the LN and manga are in chronological order. Only the anime isn't.
And since the LN is the source material, I prefer to go with a chronological order, as the author intended.

Or maybe it's because the original story was meant to be viewed chronologically, you know the LN and manga? You can sure have a story not air chronologically however, I fail to see any benefit in Haruhi unlike say Baccano!. Also it's not a mark of intelligence to prefer or only like linear stories. Still is this is some bait thread or something lol?

@FutoiOtaku

A media preference is not an indication of intelligence lol. Especially, when Haruhi is originally a linear story. You guys need to pat yourself on the back less. If Peter Jackson decided he wanted to adapt LOTR out of order it wouldn't make it "smarter".

I'm just wondering how you accidentally watched in chronological order, because that seems... odd.

@BilboBaggins365 Where in my original post do I imply that people who prefer chronological orders in shows have lower intelligence? The main thing I was ranting about was how we who enjoy the original charms and mystery of the original one have to comply with the demands of people who "cannot understand anything that is not chronological" That was my freaking point.

How you enjoy your stories does not imply anything about your intelligence, not understanding them however does

@Tsuna_Nihilist



Umm this one lol.



One that is an assumption, which again you are using to paint people of disliking the original direction as being unintelligent rather than you know like my friend who just hated the fact Haruhi didn't you know adapt it in the order like it is in the original work lol (won't comment too much off that just going off his words I have yet to get around to the LN/manga). As for myself, after seeing it yeah I don't see the benefit. I have enjoyed works that do tell stories in non linear formats but there are specific benefits to doing that. I don't see that in Haruhi.



Yeah but again the premise is that people who recommend and promote the chronological watch order could be or likely people who can't understand non chronological storytelling. Therefore, they are dumb yeah that pretty much is starting this out with an insult to people who disagree with you because you are painting fans who hate the original direction as potentially being unintelligent. Get it?

@BilboBaggins365

I am way too tired for this...

1) In the quoted text I am implying that people who do not understand the non-chronological order are dumb, not those who do not enjoy it... Honestly, you could have however interpreted the words "cannot handle" as an expression for enjoyment, which I honestly do not see it as, but if that is the case it was not meant to be that way

2) I am not smart either, but that does not, however, stop me from calling others dumb, especially those who understand less, think the entire world revolves only around them, and that the order they understand the most must be the correct one... yup room temperature IQ I was speaking of

3) Anime aired for the first time in a certain way, I want to see it that way, I do not care if the other adaptations of it are different, or if it ever aired in a different order. The first order is the final order and anything else is just an altered experience (which can be both good and bad), I do not care if it is better or worse, it is how it was intended when it first came out, so if anybody presents any other order as "the correct one" they are just plain wrong and delusional

@LostSpectre It is sadly rearranged like that almost on every single streaming website

Just watch in RELEASE ORDER who TF even watches in Chronological Order funny thing it makes no fkn sense in any Anime.

Like recently they made a stupid "Chronological Order" for Horimiya and Horimiya Piece this includes literal time stamps who in their right mind want to watch it that way.

Another Perfect example of this propaganda "Stein's Gate 23 b Drama" to make you watch Stein's Gate 0 because they say you need to see this so you can understand apparently "something" and that "something" is missing utter B.S there was nothing missing Stein's Gate is a Masterpiece.

I'm glad I didn't watched Stein's Gate 0, I nearly fell for it as a new Stein's Gate watcher back in 2019 or 18 and many people new to Stein's Gate also avoid that.

There is no need to watch Stein's Gate 0 just finish the series, watch the movie, special episode if you want that's it and if you are still interested then watch Stein's Gate 0.

In my experience the show is more enjoyable in chronological order. I first watched in release order, and while it wasn’t that confusing, scrambling the plot around like that doesn’t create an interesting “mystery” or “puzzle to piece together” or whatever. It has the same effect scrambling the order of any great show would have. It just makes it less enjoyable.

More people will enjoy the show if they watch it in chronological order. Whatever order someone prefers is fine. Skipping endless eight is fine too, I don’t care. Whatever lets people enjoy the show is best.
