Almost forgot to buy Vol. 2!!!” *runs to Amazon* Wallet: *$45 attack damage* ADV: *sad panda* I’m glad ADV reminded me to get TMoHS! Wish I could pay them back by buying this (I love AIR)... but I have no MO MONAY!!!! This was actually bad marketing for them: (me a few days ago)

You know, 'cause it's Haruhi, that they're linking to AIR. When I saw that, I actually got kind of angry. You know, ’cause it’s Haruhi, that they’re linking to AIR.

Also, watch out! Apparently you can't watch the direct download episodes on some browsers... Yeah, we got the same promo…I think the Haruhi thing is just a marketing thing.

Kanon was better though.

Which movie studios do pretty much all the time. Perhaps they should have said "From the creator of animation Suzumiya Haruhi". One can argue endlessly about the wording of the things, it doesn't change the fact that this has been standard practice within most media industries. And in this case I don't see it as too big of a deal. It's going to happen sooner or later. It’s really no more “wrong” then say, Paramount advertising a fantasy movie as “from the creator of LotR”.
