Sigh…..more DVD covers

Hey guys, Toonleap decided that since I kept bugging him with new news quite often for Haruhi, it would be easier for me to update the blog myself. I’ve got an interesting review planned for later this week, but this is important news.  Not only was the next Haruhi DVD (Sigh I and II) cover released on Saturday, but CD Japan posted the following DVD cover (Sigh III and IV) on the same day!

Most people would expect that since Sigh is the first starring role for Mikuru Asahina, she would be on the cover of the first volume, and she is.  She is however, not in a costume for the first time. Noizi Ito put Mikuru not in her “battle waitress” outfit, but in her normal clothes (which she wanted in Sigh III anyways). Here is the limited edition cover for Volume 5.714285:

In addition, that same day, CD Japan (and their corresponding Japanese company Neowing) posted the art (not the exact cover) for the following limited edition DVD cover featuring a first for the series. It makes sense that after the starring actress you feature the starring actor, so Itsuki Koizumi makes his DVD cover debut for Sigh III and IV. It is the first cover for either male SOS Brigade member. Here is the cover art for Volume 5.857142:

So there is only one more cover left for Sigh; who do you think will make the finale? Kyon? Haruhi? Tsuruya-san? Only time (and Noizi Ito-san) will tell.
