New Releases by Nagaru TANIGAWA

Trapped on the snowy mountain by both a storm and the supernatural forces that have cut off Yuki from the Data Overmind, Kyon is roused from sleep by Asahina slowly unbuttoning her nightshirt as she climbs into his bed! Kyon realizes it cannot possibly be the real Asahina (darn!), and though he doesn''t mind the house''s tricks (who would?), he and the Brigade have to crack the code and escape fast before Yuki''s fever (and Haruhi''s restlessness) gets out of control!

Swapping her Brigade Chief armband for a director''s chair, Haruhi continues production on the SOS Brigade''s school festival film project. As she watches her half-baked plot acted out in front of her, Haruhi longs even more for the supernatural reality depicted in her movie. And for Haruhi, bringing her script to life is wholly possible...and inevitably dangerous!

Quite out of the blue, Kyon receives a phone call from his middle school classmate Nakagawa. Six months ago, he spotted Kyon walking with the most beautiful girl he''d ever seen and instantly fell in love! Now he wants Kyon''s help conveying his feelings. But Nakagawa has no idea that the fair maiden who stole his heart is actually an otherworldly being...Nagato?! How will the stoic alien react to Nakagawa''s affections?!

"Let''s track down aliens, time travelers, and psychics and hang out with them!" Haruhi Suzumiya established the SOS Brigade for that sole purpose. But why''s she been acting so strange of late? So...melancholy? Unable to locate any supernatural beings (even though they''re right there in the club room the whole time), Haruhi''s frustrations turn violent. What''s Kyon gotten himself mixed up in this time?! Enjoy volume 2 of this somewhat abnormal high school story!

In a last-ditch attempt to recover their stolen equipment, the Computer Research Society challenges the SOS Brigade to a winner-takes-all multi-player space battle simulation! Failure seems inevitable, but losing is not an option! Can the unique members of the SOS Brigade pull together to destroy the expert Computer Research Society before Haruhi destroys the whole city?

The SOS Brigade gets browbeaten into entering a baseball tournament to help their fearless leader stave off boredom. But despite the Brigade''s clear lack of skill Haruhi has no intention of losing...and she''s ready to pitch a fit if her team doesn''t step up to the plate!

Kyon is your ordinary high school freshman who has long given up on his childhood dreams of encountering the fantastic and supernatural...or so he thought. From the very first day of school, his classmate-the beautiful but eccentric Haruhi Suzumiya-makes it very clear that her only desire is to meet aliens, time travelers, and psychics! A chance conversation between the two inspires Haruhi to form the SOS Brigade, a school club created for the sole purpose of gathering together such supernatural beings. The initial members consist of the mute bookworm Yuki Nagato, the timid but voluptuous Miharu Asahina, and the polite and ever-smiling Itsuki Koizumi. By the end of this first volume, Kyon quickly finds out that these seemingly "helpless victims" of Haruhi''s are actually members of secret organizations-both futuristic and alien-with the single aim of keeping watch over Haruhi Suzumiya as she is the pinnacle of some major calamity on the horizon...

This third volume in the Haruhi Suzumiya series is a collection of four exciting short stories that chronologically take place before The Sigh of Haruhi Suzumiya. The Boredom of Haruhi Suzumiya: In her latest attempt to give the S.O.S. Brigade more public exposure, Haruhi signs the group up for the city-wide baseball tournament. Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody: It''s like Back To the Future! In order to prevent an impending disaster, Mikuru takes Kyon back in time, where he meets Haruhi as a seventh grader. Mysterique Sign: The computer club president at school mysteriously disappears, and it''s up to the S.O.S. Brigade to get to the bottom of it! Remote Island Syndrome: It''s vacation time when a relative of Itsuki''s invites the S.O.S. Brigade to stay at his island villa. But then a dead body turns up, and Haruhi and the gang get mixed up in a thrilling murder mystery.

Trapped on the snowy mountain by both a storm and the supernatural forces that have cut off Yuki from the Data Overmind, Kyon is slowly roused from sleep by Asahina slowly unbuttoning her nightshirt as she climbs into his bed. Knowing that it''s not real,he must find a means of escape before it''s too late.

*스즈미야 하루히가 시간이 남아돌아 미쳐 죽고 있다면 그야말로 하늘과 땅이 뒤집어질 만큼 대단한 소란거리가 되겠지만 쓸데없이 눈을 빛내는 것도 곤란한 상황이다. 그건 모두 학생회장이라는 분이, 학생회는 SOS단의 존재 자체를 인정하지 않는다는 말을 꺼냈기 때문인데, 의외의 강적의 출현에 유유히 완장을 바꿔 찬 하루히 ‘편집장’의 호령 한마디에 우리 SOS단 멤버들은 어찌된 연유인지 문집의 원고를 집필한다는 고난의 한가운데에 처하게 된 것이다. 천상천하 유아독점 ‘스즈미야 하루히’ 시리즈 제 8탄!

*하루히가 벌이는 유쾌한 학원소동. 이번엔 또 뭐냐 환상으로 놔두고 싶었던 자체 제작 영화나 갑작스런 첫눈에 반했다는 고백, 설산에서 상연된 코이즈미의 혼신을 담은 추리극과 아사히나 선배와의 비밀 데이트. SOS단을 둘러싸고 일어나는 재미있는 이벤트를 흡족하게 즐기고 있는 스즈미야 하루히가 동요를 하는 모습은 상상도 할 수 없겠지만, 문화제의 해프닝으로 그 녀석이 흔들리고 있었던 것은 확실한 사실로, 그건 나만이 알고 있는 하루히의 얼굴이었는지도―. 기다리시던 ‘스즈미야 하루히’ 시리즈 제6탄!
