It's finally 'official'. Considering KyoAni have backflipped on this for close to 2 years, finally giving it an official slated airing is the kind of security I'd want to see before being certain about it. So yeah, I'm making a point of it.

Should I point out that the majority of this season, if it follows the light novels precisely, will be almost devoid of Haruhi. And will make fans of Yuki very happy.

That's it....!

CANCER! To all of KyoAni! :x Man, at this rate it's more flocking likely that the Avalanches will make another album than a second season of Haruhi being made....

Probably more a Kadokawa troll than a KyoAni troll, mind you.

Who owns the Haruhi franchise? Kadokawa Shoten.
Where was the misleading announcement made, about Haruhi airing in April? Newtype Magazine.
Who owns Newtype Magazine? Kadokawa Shoten.

KyoAni is a tiny studio, which makes, at best, 2-3 productions (on its own) a year. They don't have the resources to do much more. This means they have to pick and choose their productions carefully. And, in many ways, I think that if Kadokawa allowed them to, another Haruhi series would already have been made, probably as late as early 2008. But with publisher/author issues plaguing the entire light-novel series, they've probably made life a bit difficult for KyoAni, which has had to fill the genre gap with shows like Lucky Star and the upcoming Haruhi-chan series.

More to the point, where is my Full Metal Panic continuation, KyoAni? Been waiting for that longer than Haruhi. 8)

Yes, resolving FMP has been a long time coming, so they deserve AIDS for that.
They recylced the old Munto for the new, so that warrants herpes.

Looking at studio production lists these days, most studios have been forced into 1-2 a year. But KyoAni has always been like that. Not to mention very niche.

Well, I do believe there was something in one of the extras on volume 4 of TSR, where it had the director saying "I am never doing another mecha anime, it's too hard to draw...". This might help to explain why another series has not been made.

...in other news, more Nogizaka Haurka for me!!!! :D (season 2 starts in april.....why haven't we shown this at AJAS yet??)
