If you are a big fan of Haruhi and want to consume more content related to it, then this comic anthology is a must-read. However, if you are not interested in fujoshi queer baiting, then you might want to skip this one. If that kind of stuff is your bag then I would highly recommend this anthology, especially to any seasoned Haruhi veteran.

Each chapter features a short story written and illustrated by various artists depicting humorous narratives exclusively involving the male members of the SOS Brigade. A majority of the stories featured in this anthology are very enjoyable to read with only a few of them falling kind of flat. A major joke that is apparent in each of these stories is Kyon and Koizumi are put into some sort of homoerotic situation so again, this type of content may not be entertaining for everyone.

All chapters feature beautifully drawn artwork by female illustrators who have authored multiple original romance mangas.

I really appreciated this anthology's portrayal of the characters. The accompanying writing is funny and entertaining without compromising the defined traits of the main cast members.

Overall, I genuinely enjoyed this comic anthology. It is refreshing to see the male characters in the Haruhi series receive this kind of treatment, especially since the original series features a female-dominated cast. I am very partial to Kyon and Koizumi as a pairing so my enjoyment of this manga is heavily influenced by that personal significance. I feel that Kyon and Koizumi are very well-written characters, each with their own important role as members of the SOS Brigade. They are just as significant to the series as the female characters.
