    As annoying as it was to slog through the episodes (I think I went through 5 of them before realizing I wasn’t missing much skipping the other three), there is something to be said about how much it captures that feeling of uselessness that Kyo and Yuki have. Kyo begins to realize each time and Yuki is forced to be aware through each repetition. Haruhi is so powerful that she creates an endless time loop, that was both amazing and terrifying.

      Thats the really weird part, Nagato could end it whenever she wanted, yet she always chooses to tell them just enough to keep it going forever

        She can’t interfere, her job is to monitor and observe and only stop Haruhi if she’s going to endanger the universe. So even with the ability to stop her, she can’t do anything by the code of her position.

          Thats the thing, she does interfere, but just enough that it keeps happening. 100% no interference would be not even telling them that there is a loop going on when they try to find out
