Two stories continue the adventure in Volume 8 of the Haruhi Suzumiya series. 1. Henshuuchou ★ Itchokusen! (編集長★一直線!, Editor-in-Chief, Straight Ahead!) Since the beginning of the year, the SOS Brigade has been masking as the Literature Club to be recognized as an official high school organization. But when the new student council president threatens to disband the group, the members must write a collection of literature. Naturally, Haruhi assume the role of editor-in-chief and leads the team to publication with hilarious results. 2. Wandering Shadow (ワンダリング・シャドウ) From writers to detectives, the SOS Brigade does it all. When fellow classmate Sanaka comes to the club seeking help, the team (well, Haruhi) is up to the task. A well-trodden popular park path has suddenly begun to terrify the neighborhood dogs, and Haruhi suspects that its being haunted by animal spirits. It looks like the SOS Brigade is about to perform its first first canine exorcism! (Source: Yen Press)
