    I am 99% sure it will be mainly based on the Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi arc, which will be total pwnsauce.

    Hahaha, definitely! That's definitely the best arc that I have read.
    Depending on how many episodes it takes up, maybe we'll see a bit of the Sighs of Suzumiya Haruhi arc.

    I'm not sure anymore, and am too lazy to put in the dvd to check, but I seem to remember that at the end of the last episode (afk release), there was a URL that lead to a translated version of a bunch of Haruhi stuff ...

    For the novels: http://www.baka-tsuki.net/project/in...uzumiya_Haruhi

    No idea about the licensing; it'd be great if someone can clear that up.

    I'd say "probably not now, but definitely soon".

    When Naruto Shippuden came out, I looked up to see if it was licensed in English by Viz, and it hadn't been yet. But then again, Shippuden is probably defined as a "separate" show, so I'm not exactly sure.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Most of the time, here's how it works...

    If there's two or more continuous seasons that make up one series, they're licensed as one body of work (with some exceptions). If the seasons are discontinuous (either because they aired substantially far apart, or because they're just being called different things as is the case with Shippuden), they're licensed separately. For example, Hajime no Ippo spanned 3 seasons, but was licensed as a single contiguous piece. School Rumble was 2 discontinuous seasons, and was licensed as two separate pieces, but Funimation ended up with the rights to both of them. Contrast with older, atypical works like DBZ, which that didn't happen with...

    Given that Haruhi "season 1" was one body of work, and was produced without knowing whether a "season 2" would be made, I don't believe that they would license them together. However, it could be a term of the season 1 license that the season 1 licensor gets priority in licensing subsequent series.

    Bandai owns season 1's distribution rights. So it's very likely that if season 1 is a success and season 2 happens, that Bandai will also get season 2's distribution rights. But the deal probably hasn't happened yet, given that season 2 doesn't yet ... you know ... exist.
