If this isn’t proof of the Japanese version’s superiority to you, then I recommend dying in a fire.

*****SPOILERS*****

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya – Episode 20 Review
Episode 20, "Endless Eight (Part 5)"
*****SPOILERS*****
Synopsis: The exact same fucking thing that happened last episode, with different angles. (Endless indeed.)
Comments:
First, I’d like to explain my numbering system for SHnY episodes this season, as I should have gone into that long ago. No matter how you number/order the episodes from the first season of the program, there are fourteen of them (Episode 00 and thirteen more). Therefore, I counted the first new episode of the season "episode 15" and continue on from there. This is episode 20. "Endless Eight" started in episode 16.

Vegeta, in his Oozaru form, tortures Goku as Kuririn and Gohan arrive to attempt to cut off his tail. Their attempt fails, but Yajirobe succeeds, and then runs off to hide. Vegeta transforms back to normal, but is enraged, and beats up on Kuririn and Gohan. He then turns his attention to the beaten Goku, but Gohan attacks him and they engage in close combat. Goku gives Kuririn the energy he gathered, entrusting him to fire the Genki Dama.
“HERP DERP OBAMA ISN’T A CITIZEN!” Says Sore Losers
What’s with all these “Obama birthers”?
Is it that Republicans, so shocked by having a well-read, educated, somewhat liberal President in the White House, are so desperately grasping at straws to deny his validty as a leader they have to go this far even now? Is it just political sour grapes, or are conservative types really this delusional? I suppose when all your guidance in life comes from a book of hijacked Pagan myths and private conversations with an invisible sky father, your logic and reason is a little out of whack.
