Lucky Star's Haruhi Suzumiya References: Episodes 1-14 (ENG Dub) PART 1

[@AnimeRunna]

The best part about this dub is the fact they made sure to get the casting for the characters absolutely right. Like 5:29, the fact that Crispin Freeman is talking about his own character Kyon makes that scene so much funnier. They didn't get it 100% right because the other guy isn't the voice of Sosuke like in the Japanese version, but still I very much appreciate the effort.

[@somethingtodowithcat]

KYON IS SELLING KYON

[@dawnwingslunaleon1837]

KYONCEPTION!!!!

[@RandomBackgroundNPC357]

Like Chuck Norris Vs. Chuck Norris

[@insanebiker3329]

I finally get ha XD

[@cdm966]

I just realized Konata and Haruhi have the same English VA

[@Crystalphoenixreborn]

Yep. Wendee Lee. Oh, and guess what? It's the same in the subbed as well with Aya Hirano!

[@a.a.a.a5685]

I feel like Wendee Lee is a little bit... Old.

[@AxelWedstar411]

WeebPatrolOfficer Monika Adults voicing kids is hardly rare. 90% of cartoons are like that.

[@abdielgarcia6737]

A.A.A.A but she still got it

[@onidaaitsubasa4177]

cdm966. Ahhh so the English versions do follow the Japanese versions because they have the same VA in the Japanese versions. Actually to dub the café scene correctly it actually makes sense to have the same VA.

[@deathlegionair]

Haruhi's Bunny girl harem... there is nothing greater...

[@Solaire_of_Astora13]

Hell Yeaah...oh god. OH GOD. KYON'S SISTER!!I'VE BEEN SPOTTED BY THE FBI. NO. GOD...PLS...

[@inactive2016]

Jose Payan *_protocol 0 activated_*

[@smitty3624]

I love that they got crispin freeman to voice the guy selling a kyon card.

[@random_noob5831]

He's fucking invincible!

[@Twisters-ld5fz]

I like ot how Konota can use a computer without opening her eyes.

[@konataizumi9413]

It takes a great amount of skill.

[@jessevasquez2598]

Konata Izumi show me your ways o great one

[@Mr-Green0]

Who is she? Daredevil?

[@Rivr_Shen]

5:35 the manager's hair is styled after Goku's Super Saiyan hairstyle

[@AnimeboyUltimate-pp4mc]

This anime really cameoed the heck out of haruhi suzumiya.

[@narwaltz1239]

The guy arguing with Meito at comiket (the guy who suggests the Kyon card) is actually the same VA as Kyon. That's awesome.

[@haruhisuzumiya1655]

this is funny the haruhi suzumiya references of haruhi suzumiya in lucky star :)

[@Uloveeverglow]

😊

[@shawnli4746]

The name's a handful, I'd follow how the Aussies nickname people and call the title character "Hazza" ;)

[@sleepyhannajay]

It's also interesting to know that Haruhi and Konata share the same Japanese and English actress.

[@ray18mariah88]

Here's my theory Maybe haruhii suzumiya wanted to host and make her own anime show and ended up with lucky star

[@Mr-Green0]

So Haruhi change herself into Konata?

[@Mr-Green0]

3:20 Yeah...she was.... (My mind is blowing right now)

[@Mr-Green0]

3:52 It's Mikuru! Look at the background!

[@vrgval]

i dont like how kyons little sister is in a bunny outfit

[@alechandri515]

3:49 Haruhi Suzumiya,The toad plushie konata won and Nico Robin try and spot mlre anime cosplayers in this scene

[@bontagsharmone8353]

alechandri515 alponse elric and mikuru asahina in bunny suit

[@gamemationplays1013]

The guy singing the ending aka Song of Hare Hare Yukai!

[@shawnli4746]

1:17 "solo grinding mm mm, mm mm" 1:30 "i'm getting stronger, oh yeah"

[@damotoneko1500]

WOAH! Hold on! 03:50 Is that Nico Robin to the right?! 05:49 I swear, those people practicly live for their work it's not only admirable but entertaining. I doubt i'd have the energy to be half as enthusiastic as those people. Heck even their Company President is awesome XD It's like they're born in OnePiece and their Romance is selling anime products.

[@foxtrott8886]

4:34 That's Kyon, isn't it?✨

[@steenzaragoza-faoagali4570]

This makes me want a season 3 even more

[@kazesmaruai4504]

I just love how in this anime they don’t change the characters name like how they parody in other shows

[@dehkthetrainwreck9925]

I live in japan..... and i speak english

[@rawsupershow123]

and you are black, triple weird

[@Mahoromatic]

Wa wa wa wasuremono

[@joshuaskimore]

3:04 hate to pick all that back up

[@minionkun1355]

There was one you missed where Minoru was interrupting Akira by singing the Miracle run

[@amelieme]

4:00 oh hey there Nico Robin

[@yutaka831]

This anime is one of my all time favorites. Because it has references and in-jjokes and other stuff.

[@miriamfox1822]

woah! 4:58 anyone else see the ironic Hellsing reference? ironic since freeman voiced alucard? (a most excellent job he did too!) XD

[@zach_the_guy5257]

*Wanna buy a Kyon card?*

[@mrinalini1372]

Sgt frog, kanon 2006, FMA, there's not just haruhi in here, is there... XD

[@haleyawesomepants]

i'd buy a kyon card......

[@charinguptrollzard]

yeah

[@jasmineirizarry8403]

Yeah

[@razors_n_gohan]

i like how the employee in the blue apron at 5:18 is Kyon. or Kyon's voice actor, sorry.

[@Alpha-0014]

マイイズルMaiizuru Crispin Freeman

[@anthonybarnhart9595]

I love how lucky star can have reference to a horror show such as higurashi ( poster in the back)

[@fireflame608]

What Time? I loved higurashi

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

But Wendee Lee...IS HARUHI! OH MY GOOOOOOD!

[@Nemicompo]

4:34 the poster that is most visible is a Higurashi no naku koro ni poster

[@adrianisawesome1234]

Yo the guy singing at the end sounds drunk as fuck!😂

[@minionkun1355]

In episode 13 Konata was about to pick up the Haruhi DVD but then put it back

[@stgkgrimm7600]

endless 8 pissed me out so much but the show was still ok

[@the_polar_bears_got_me]

Pissee you out? 😂😂

[@Inuyasha4838]

Its so you can sympathize with what Nagato felt. I mean we endured it 8 times nagato endured it millions of other times.

[@KitwaIker]

UNSURPASSABLE WALL XD

[@lampshades120]

THIS IS AWESOME

[@patrickstar8032]

Well seymore i made it Despite your directions

[@The_Ghost_Gaming]

5:55 keroro? whatta doing there?

[@TheMilwaukeeProtocol]

***** In one episode, Konata and Tsukasa both said that Keroro Gunsou was their favorite anime, so it's inevitable to see it occasionally. ^^;

[@TheLittlepetfan]

3:14 , alright what the hell? The poster's just weird as hell. (Maybe because Kyon's young sister(?) is wearing a bunny costume.)

[@CORF.]

The fighting between the merchants always kills me lmao

[@cotta624]

What's even better is that in the Japanese version it's a battle between the two Tomokazu's (Sugita = Nameless Clerk = Kyon; Seki = Anizawa Meito = Sousuke)

[@miriamfox1822]

4:21 - best bit EVER! and here I am watching an anime that references anime's while I should be studying... NO REGRETS SO FAR

[@nizxzone2775]

LOL the guy in that blue apron was holding a kyon card, and he sounds like him :3

[@rre9121]

Holy crap, I'm sure I am the *last* person who got to this party, but goddamn it. Her english voice actor is the same as Haruhi's.

[@gamerguy425]

3:13 da faq? why is Kyon's 6th grade sister in a freaking payboy bunny costume, let alone the only one without leggings?

[@Gntaco120]

Let the flaming begin. uugh.

[@mikeylambda1322]

Hare hare yukai kata is best kata

[@TheMilwaukeeProtocol]

Liking only for the ending, LOL

[@roboleon117]

lol i didnt get the reference in episode 5 until i heard the humming ^_^

[@vangildner]

Lyon looked 👌🏽on that card

[@IronFiste20]

4:13 that's a Kanon poster in the background. That's enough for me XD

[@Jay-hb2mu]

If only this was made in 2017 so we could get way more references.

[@douglasivey7524]

3:50 I see you Alphonse Elric

[@stgkgrimm7600]

endless 8 pissed me out so much

[@jcelynchan946]

Haruhi? HARUHI?! HARUHIIIIIII OMG OURAAAAAANNNNNNNN

[@andrewotaku1679]

0:30 Makes perfect sense for Kona-chan to have it instead of Kagami. XD

[@kikichan9583]

does anyone know what BGM is playing during 1:15-1:44?

[@witsrsly]

At 0:58 was Konata on 2channel?

[@theLuigiFan0007Productions]

Looks like it. XD

[@animelover92d25]

Haruhi Suzumiya And Konata Izumi!

[@Inuyasha4838]

I dont get some references like when tsukasa got lost and was looking for the east hall or when minoru shiraishi was introduced

[@Poptart-su9si]

They explain the references in the description

[@Mr-Green0]

3:14 I literally remember that part.

[@5KR1LL3xF4N]

"nagato just sat there the whole time" i think shes talking about the finale of the show

[@chamomilletea2278]

05:32 lol full metal panic

[@gildedphoenix]

1:20 well played

[@morrisseymamerto671]

The opening has the kanji signs with the star in the mid and stuff.

[@jazz-axy9924]

"whoa talk about cutting corners, nagato jus sat there the whole time" WAIT IS SHE TALKING ABOUT THE ENDLESS 8?!

[@victoradamos9194]

TheMicStandJoonTossedOnKBS I think its more of the last episode, where she sat in a room for 7 minutes reading a book

[@fukoclannad124]

OMG SHUFFLE

[@YuriNator557]

well, they like to reference haruhi, don't they

[@JohnSmith-wo8nq]

It seems like it's more about my voice actor than me.

[@izzy_theog9658]

0:00 I recognise that game... 対抗の達人 (Read as Taiko no Tatsujin) Drum Master game!

[@66Roses]

0:47 Ah, I see she's watching the Endless Eight.

[@cherissesakamaki911]

No, it's actually the episode where Kyon gets a heater from a guy who supported Haruhi while making the movie. I don't remember what episode that was though.

[@SethMarioGames]

It's the final of season 1

[@ziltoidtheomniscient2398]

Cherisse NotSayingIt For some reason, Nagato just sitting there felt ten times longer than the Endless 8.

[@itzorin600]

my god

[@silentninja102]

Aw, I don't think they got Chris to do the guy selling the FMP card

[@hesperishere]

3:50 ALPHONSEEE FMA REFERENCE XDDD

[@natehalls1142]

Alphonse Elric indeed.

[@alechandri515]

Is it just me or I found Patrica-san's cosplay outfit for when they meet her... 3:19

[@shawnli4746]

Sgt frog is there too at 3:50

[@angusng816]

Why?

[@sam6900]

in the start they were playing taiko

[@razors_n_gohan]

gawd, its only the ending song, Hare Hare Yukai, why?!?

[@50centpb7]

A lot of these references look more like heavy-handed attempts at product placement than cheeky callbacks. Just sayin'.

[@haruhisuzumiya1655]

has the guy that speaks at the minute 5:25 with the white t-shirt, the same voice actor like "kyon" (in the english version) in "the melancholy of haruhi Suzumiya"?. Because i hear the voice before.

[@belbercike2344]

Yes, Crispin Freeman plays him.

[@haruhisuzumiya1655]

Blue Fire ah, ok. thank´s for the help

[@OtakuSenseiHig]

+haruhi Suzumiya come on haruhi you need to be on top of things and watch what your lackey is doing

[@haruhisuzumiya1655]

OtakuSenseiHig yes. what means the word "lackey"?

[@OtakuSenseiHig]

haruhi Suzumiya lackey means, underling, peon, subordinate

[@TooMuchSascha]

Who was Konata referring to in her censored line at 0:52?

[@mathewadamson141]

it's the same voice actor so yea I'd think that they'd sound alike

[@StarrPower2232]

4:21 is that clerk Domon from Gundam?

[@brandongittens9045]

AL!!! :D 3:50

[@sirlukas73]

3:06 woah there calm the fuck down I need volume four first

[@natehalls1142]

Did you say leftovers...... Theres no such thing as leftovers!

[@FlamingNidoran]

wtf is that robin from one piece behind haruhi in 3:50

[@5KR1LL3xF4N]

3:54 i think the girl in the back on the right is suppose to be cosplaying as a parody of nico robin from one piece

[@turnoffthenight]

I want that Kyon card :^)))

[@onidaaitsubasa4177]

So if the voice actress for Haruhi is the voice actress for Konata in the Japanese version does that mean the same voice actress does the dubs of both shows for the english versions?

[@masonmoreno4033]

It's the real NAGANO! Ear rape confirmed!

[@CeloExsilium3]

At 4:21 , are those two clerks a reference to another show?

[@epicotakucherry5280]

The one in the apron's voice actor is Crispin Freeman (in English), who plays Kyon, the character on the card he was holding. I bet they did the same thing in Japanese. I assume the same for the other guy - the card he was holding had the same voice actor as him.

[@JohnERamirez21945]

I think the first clerk is voiced by Chris Patton, the English VA of Sousuke Sagara from Full Metal Panic, another animation of KyoAni(only second and third season though). And the second is voiced by Crispin Freeman, English VA of Kyon from Haruhi Suzumiya

[@ghostnoteCE]

4:54 Kamina vs Kyon?

[@the_polar_bears_got_me]

Why was that that guy singing 😂

[@ria706]

GAWD THE DUBBED VOICED!!! UGHHHHHH SRY I TRIED!!

[@ria706]

***** salty much?

[@stephenbunch7458]

Did anyone notice taiko at the beginning? I did

[@Mr-Green0]

0:28 I know that's the reference, but how did she got that armband? Cause Haruhi is the only one who wears that. Did she broke into the Brigade club and stole it?
