Super Driver though doesn't need the Arc to make it sound bad since I thought that piece was fairly dreadful. @kadian1364

But not bad, not bad at all. It's possible (regrettably so) that in some viewers' minds, Tomare might be considered a tainted item purely by its association with The Arc That Shall Not Be Named.

The latter doesn't show as much of Hirano's musical weaknesses because she's in character and in chorus with the other two. I even prefer "Tomare!" over "Bouken Desho Desho". The first season's opening animation was memorable and all, but I have no love for its accompanying music.

So it goes, and with it, "Hare Hare" will be what I think of when I think "Haruhi ED" as well. @Reltair

Now it's getting to be meh and Endless Eight arc didn't help either. Tomare! is okay, but like you said - Hare Hare Yukai is way more memorable. I'll probably forget about Tomare! and still recall Hare Hare Yukai when I think about Haruhi. Yeah, first season Haruhi was so refreshing and new at that time.
