Lucky Star's Haruhi Suzumiya References: Episodes 15-16 (ENG Dub) PART 2

[@Nak1895]

I absolutely loved how the dub made sure to do all of the Haruhi scenes right.

[@seamusburke639]

They made so many Haruhi references that Aya Hirano herself manifested.

[@loganwynn2337]

they actually got Kyon's va to do the reference!

[@mphylo2296]

And Yuki's!

[@yourenotperfect.9493]

+M Phylo Yuki's voice actress already voices a regular character in this show.

[@mphylo2296]

Rutin Acuzza Yeah she plays Tsukasa who happens to be my favorite.

[@Alpha-0014]

Kyon: Crispin Freeman Yuki: Michelle Ruff

[@brezzendorf]

@@mphylo2296 what do you mean, doesn't yuki nagato VA voiced as iwasaki instead tsukasa? Or dubbed version is different

[@rswan5]

Lucky Star: the series-long love letter to Haruhi Suzumiya.

[@MarioLover76]

An anime reference in an anime? GENIUS.

[@KaiserTeelir]

MarioLover76 this is the best thing ever

[@mewnirussiasonlywifeandgir5469]

MarioLover76 I want Hetalia or else I will cry like this: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@Needsmoreflash]

Did anyone hear Kyon scream "Ponytails!" at the end of the song? lol I watched this year's ago and only noticed now XD

[@wappy103]

ponytails turns kyon on he has a fetish for ponytails 👌

[@ArtanBlacknight]

his sister has a ponytail You can figure the rest

[@blu9700]

and he hates glasses

[@Mondoblasto0]

Wendee Lee switching between Konata and Haruhi on the fly is fascinating to listen to ^_^

[@JamiesonM]

Is Nagato...serving Kyon?!?!! WHY DID I NOT NOTICE THIS BEFORE?!? O_o

[@Trainlover1995]

Yes, Crispin Freeman and Michelle Ruff did use their Kyon and Yuki voices for that bit.

[@sbart652]

Same

[@PikachuParty]

I liked all these refferences. My favorite was when Kyon was ordering his food. It's a shame he didn't get any...:( LOL!

[@aviechan]

And I love how your pic is of my beloved Morishige

[@PikachuParty]

Why thank you!

[@JustinCarbaugh]

A goated anime referencing another goated anime and how akira said Haruhi's entire name

[@ZenakuShinigami]

Did kyon just say "lets go with that!"? Wow, I'm surprised, kyon would've waited 2 minutes because he was internally monologing to himself than said "fine sure" C'mon kyo ani I know your characters better than you do

[@dc4296]

ah yeas, Lucky Star, or, as it is commonly known, the 'Haruhi reference' show

[@emilmerz9415]

Omg, I am scarred for life. I can never see Kyon again. Seeing him dance... just no.

[@emilmerz9415]

+abiel998 XD I meant of his own free will. It was a joke

[@sbart652]

Yes, that was so out of character

[@PotatoeJin]

What about the ed lol

[@はっぱふみふみ-w3m]

こなたの英語吹き替えの人とハルヒの人、同じにしてるのすごいな。再現されてて嬉しい。

[@beesy2855]

These aren't references, they are blatant advertisements lol

[@That_Retro_Artist]

5:28 Chibi Nagato. :D

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Not even 10 seconds in and we're treated to 2 Haruhi references (3 if you consider Wendee Lee being Konata). And the scene where Konata dresses and acts like Haruhi was mind-blowing. She's a fan of Haruhi, but her voice actress was Haruhi. And now she's acting like Haruhi even tough she technically is Haruhi, so she's voice acting as the same character! WHAAAAAT?!

[@333cals]

There was a panel and a conference where wendee done a script where konata meets haruhi playing both voices but i couldnt find it

[@JustinCarbaugh]

Now I wanna see Konata and her friends in Haruhi animation

[@meccevil321]

no mind can ever be as warped and twisted as mine. for I watched Lucky Star years before The Melancholie of Suzumiya Haruhi. how warped?... I loved the Endless Eight

[@thisstatementisnottautolog1093]

Truly, you are a god of patience.

[@Jack_MxM]

The endless eight was awesome! One of the most fascinating arcs in anime I have ever watched

[@KlldbyCuriosity]

You are not alone

[@murcurypoison2904]

Jokes on you I watch every season of digimon backwards. From savers to frontier to tamers to adventure 2 to adventure 1.

[@Wolfs0n]

LOL Freaking Crispin Freeman!

[@notahamster333]

Crispin. Frickin'. Freeman. 👏

[@redfather5342]

He's the best

[@reubenguttenberg7405]

Alec the Lion

[@Sara-ek9hy]

I watched Haruhi Suzumiya well after I watched Lucky Star, so now I'm tempted to watch it again since I'll understand the references.

[@pokesonic184]

OMG I WATCHED THIS ENTIRE SERIES AND ONLY NOTICED THE OBVIOUS ONES LIKE THE BAR AND SOS BRIGADE JACKET

[@angelic.angel_]

Hah, when I watched Lucky Star I didnt get any of these references, but now that Ive watched The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya I get pretty much all of them :)

[@rofl9514]

4:43 "it hasn't been that stinky in a while" WHAT WHERE THEY TALKING ABOUT?!??

[@justincounts6001]

I'm scared to say it might have something to do with A woman's period

[@domtaylor1887]

4:15-4:18 The way the voice actress switches from Konata to Haruhi so seamlessly is quite impressive.

[@sonicboy678]

"Yeah, that's classified." That would be much more hilarious if that was Stephanie Sheh.

[@johnnygnoneeded]

Actually Ms Sheh does the voice of the spoiled annoying pampered brat in the Lucky Channel Outros! Quite the contrast from sweetheart Mikuru, neh?

[@Videohphile]

I watched Lucky Star before I watched Haruhi so most of these references just flew over my head. But this is seriously making me want to rewatch LS.

[@brandongittens9045]

"It hasn't been that stinky in a while" I really am curious of how that story started...

[@Lurker1979]

Same here.

[@icem6765]

they're talking bout their period

[@justincounts6001]

I always thought that's what they were talking about but I didn't know for sure

[@wappy103]

kyoani is in love with haruhi suzumiya.......

[@Vibrantcard601]

3:50 omg kyon big fan, big fan

[@johnsalada3090]

is the voice actor for konata the same as haruhi?

[@RicardoCon94]

in both English and Japanese yes. Konata and Haruhi share the same voice actor

[@bitmen6473]

Gets even crazier when you realize the concert at the beginning was for the Japanese VA

[@UrSammich]

Yep and apparently they did that on purpose ; 3

[@WadcaWymiaru]

But Aya Hirano is slut...

[@helmiboboy]

Władca Wymiaru Wow really?

[@PlexareOtaku_]

3:47 best scene ever

[@skrubbed]

i completely missed these references when i first watched lucky star, which is wild to me because if i ahd watched haruhi before lucky star, i wouldve been jumping for joy.

[@ray18mariah88]

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

[@lillamar7773]

"you can set your own ringtone and customize your screen" Wow.

[@661.julian4]

Lucky Star is funnier if you’ve watched Haruhi Suzumiya

[@Mutexop]

Is it bad if I obsess over the melancholy of haruhi Suzumiya as much as she does... lol

[@strawberryblossom4431]

nope I do too

[@Mutexop]

oh okay

[@ShinobuSakurazaka]

Patricia Martin must of been wearing some hellish hair extensions and a lot of "padding" in the bust area to cosplay as Mikuru in her battle waitress outfit.

[@alecpanic]

the cropped lines from day of sagittarius episode are my favorite

[@gildedphoenix]

Oh, brother...

[@zeng58]

That avatar lol with the comment xD

[@awildcommenter7240]

Coşkun Akalın I RAPED KYON

[@gildedphoenix]

Why would always something had to happen to me?

[@starflame34]

The funny thing is, I watched Lucky Star first/before watching Haruhi Suzumiya. So when I finally got around to watching it, there were times when I'm like: "Wait a minute...why does this scene seem so...familiar? And why does Haruhi sound like Konata from Lucky Star?"

[@mossy1379]

They're not even trying anymore... *facedesk*

[@davemaker5972]

I only finished watching TMOHS and the movie about a week ago, yet watching this makes me want to watch it all over again!

[@davemaker5972]

to add on my previous comment... I swear to god, just watching this reminds me of the fun I had during season one, the last bit of season 2( minus the final episode) and the movie. I' m dying of laughter just remembering TMOHS

[@starwarlords3798]

I really like God knows it feels so much alive their performance is so great

[@SetaKaiboGayming]

Because of seeing this Vid, I want to see Lucky Star for the TMOHS references and to hear all the same actors from TMOHS Voice in it LOL Thank you Yoshi Taka

[@yoshitaka6545]

SetaKaiboNeko You are very welcome!

[@nicholasdalli6303]

i will be seeing lucky star for the same reason

[@rhapsodostang]

XD "That's classified" I love that reference

[@jasonli678]

Why does lucky star reference haruhi so much?

[@jinsuhawng2455]

the voice actor does that blue girl and that the main character of that and that girl voices both.

[@Metalcitygaming]

+jason li (gunfyre212) I believe because the main character is a "otaku" set in the time when haruhi was the latest thing out, everyone at the time new it. That is why there is so many references I believe. I think I heard this from a youtuber called "digibros"

[@hanyuuhiiragi3544]

+Jinsu Hawng and that applies to both the English AND Japanese versions! :D

[@orionkonata696]

+Hanyuu Hiiragi And the same studio who created it.

[@hanyuuhiiragi3544]

+Orion Konata figures someone by that name would point that out.

[@avenir-schwarzgranz]

Yuki & Kyon cameo cracks me up still all these years later

[@gcxs]

KyoAni has at least one reference character in any show.

[@policevauxhallastra6591]

My name is..... *CLASSIFIED*

[@abreckenridge3001]

Police Vauxhall Astra underrated comments man

[@DarkSaiyanCumber]

I have both these series on blu-ray!

[@Clone72400]

My god. This show is full of references of my favorite show.

[@Dra9ondemon]

Notice that she does the Kyon facepalm/ hand gesture thing in the opening.

[@EddieKat]

It misses out the part where Minoru once again does the "i for- for- for- got my bag" thing at the end of Akira's "concert".

[@thespaghettiman3821]

AUGHHHHH IT HURTS THE REFRENCES

[@spiralmatt8946]

Now I see why the café is nearly empty in a funny way from 4:07 to 4:43. Imagine if she was in EVERY single restaurant say those words to all her the customers

[@robertdelrosario8176]

Holy crap! Most of these references just flew over my head! But until I started watching Haruhi Suzumiya! But I totally get it now!

[@katieo.9629]

Ah miss the SOS

[@AnimeGirl4891]

I feel like the do most Haruhi Suzumiya references then any other anime I've seen. I'm not complaining. I'm just mentioning.

[@NintendoGirl49]

Here's an interesting fact. Konata's Japanese actor, Aya Hirano, also does the Japanese voice for Haruhi. And Konata's English actor, Wendee Lee, also does the English voice for Haruhi! Crazy, right?

[@mphylo2296]

I love how Kyoto Animation are basically giving themselves a huge amount of self praise through these Easter eggs.

[@homer_3002]

Woah! They actually got Crispin Freeman to do the voice for Kyon here! While he did sound a little to enthusiastic it was still awesome to hear it again!

[@orboakin8074]

I am a relatively newcomer to anime and I only just realized that the VAs (both english and japanese) voiced both Konata and Haruhi! Sweet mother of coincidences!😲😂😂 Also, I am legit excited to watch and read the Haruhi Suzumiya anime and light novels. I bought both in a sale this summer.

[@brezzendorf]

This dubs is... okay Wow, that's rare

[@highspeedhighjinx7255]

Patricia's dub voice still cracks me up till this day

[@Alexander247]

3:49 i love how they got the same actors for this reference

[@Vapor817]

1:42 I wonder how many people got that Fate Stay Night reference

[@TheDragonninja1983]

that girl Patricia Martin, she was voiced by the Pink Ranger, Patricia Ja Lee, she played Cassie Chan from both Power Rangers Turbo and Power Rangers in Space.

[@meijimontage803]

The 1:12 anime reference is Da capo the main girl Nemu has ribbons like haruhi it’s an older anime/Visual novel

[@Mahoromatic]

Crrriiiiissssspiiin' Freeeeman is on the stand!

[@kevinslater4126]

The scene where they're photographing Tsukasa is a reference to how she looks like the girl from To Heart.

[@pgj1997]

0:31 "So... Which part's unique?"

[@JustClaude13]

2:52 It's worth pointing out that the incident was a To Heart reference. Tsukasa has the same hair style as Akari Kamigishi, so the geeks at Akihabara go wild over her. A more subtle reference from the initial concert scene was the aftermath, when Konata actually got to see Aya Hirano (her voice actress) in person and realized that the legend was just somebody like her. She seemed a little subdued by the realization. Her expression as she left might be characterized as "Melancholy." I think it was a deliberate pun.

[@flowerings]

Oh, I just realized that the song that was playing at the beginning was God Knows. And I didn't read the desc.

[@d3l1c10uspancak3s]

Kyon dancing has scarred me for life, I can never see him the same again nor wanna see him dance again, I'm sorry

[@qazmko22]

Man I have to watch, Lucky Star! It looks hilarious!

[@creatureoflight8121]

This is the funniest episode of lucky star, haruhi suzumiya parody hahahaha

[@guadalupemontero902]

3:48 favorite part. Because my wifu Nagato is in it.

[@edwardangil384]

AHHHHHHHHHHHH WHY ARE THERE SO MANY REFERENCE'S AND HOW THE HELL DID I NOT NOTICE!

[@towalysia]

OMG I DO THE SAME LOL THE OTHER DAY MY FRIEND WHO'S A VAMPIRE AND ME WHO'S AN ESPERER, WE STARTED A CLUB TO FIND ANYTHING WEIRD IN THE WORLD!!!

[@zombieslayer115ify]

I love obscure references

[@yoshitaka6545]

Thank you for pointing that out! I'll fix it~

[@cynicalsith]

1:09 is actually referencing D.C. ~Da Capo~. The background music belongs to its opening theme. The yellow ribbons are worn by Nemu Asakura, the blue ribbons are worn by Sakura Yoshino, the white hat is worn by Kotori Shirakawa, and the white ribbon is worn by Moe Mizukoshi.

[@jaiitachichan2030]

😣Know that feeling of being small!😅+other bits +funny bits😎

[@Cuissine]

Can't belive nagato is in there...

[@bhawk0473]

I still think its funny how they got the original actresses for haruhi, kyon, and nagato voices, wish they had mikuru in her voice

[@nateroo1486]

Kagami is less Tsun, more Kyon

[@shadowzone2588]

I feel so stupid. How I did I not see these before.

[@karnegthedestroyer6334]

i think konota is basically haruhi with blue hair XD

[@reubenguttenberg7405]

Kyon talks like Alex the Lion from Madagascar franchise

[@keyboardowl6072]

sHES USING HER HARUHI VOICE FOR THE ACAFeeeee

[@connor-kun15]

Can't believe I didn't see these XD

[@thenexus5936]

So many references!!!

[@xRAINxOFxBLOODx]

1:09 That's a Da Capo reference... yes, even the yellow ribbons. 3:01 That's a To Heart reference.

[@GrookeyTTVYoutube]

Ending was badass
