New Nickelodeon Suzumiya Haruhi Movie Announced

1 April 2010 37 Comments

In a surprise announcement that caught almost everyone by surprise, Bandai announced today that a new Haruhi movie is in the works right on the heels of the Disappearance movie. Bandai stated that it will be a joint project with Nickelodeon featuring a cross-over story between Haruhi Suzumiya and Invader Zim.  Although this is an industry first, Bandai hopes the move will help garner a wider audience by appealing to fans of both series. The animation production will be done through a collaboration between Nickelodeon and Kyoto Animation studios. Although no movie plot descriptions have been released, a short teaser trailer has been released and can be viewed below.  The movie is tentatively scheduled to be released in 2011, we’ll keep you posted as more information becomes available.

  • Anonymous said:

    I like how you guys believe this is an “April Fool’s Joke” when in actuality…it isn’t. I had recognized the art-style for the animation; and it’s “http://mikeinel.deviantart.com/”‘s artwork. If you want to question him on the movie–I wouldn’t hesitate.

    And yes. I would totally watch this too.

  • zimfan said:

  • Sakurafoo said:

    God, I love Mike Inel. <3
    I saw this trailer when it came out. It was so obvious that it was a April Fool's joke; if you didn't get it throughout the whole trailer, the "February 31st" thing should've been a big clue.
