Rumors, bans, and surprise returns — we investigate whether Record of Ragnarok is really “forbidden” and unpack a wild Haruhi Suzumiya rumor. 👀
In this video we dig into two explosive anime stories making the rounds online: the claim that Record of Ragnarok has been “forbidden” (or pulled/controversial), and a surprising rumor about The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya that’s got fans talking. 🚨
We don’t just repeat headlines — we analyze what the rumors actually say, separate verified facts from speculation, and explain the possible legal, cultural, or platform reasons behind content removals and censorship. Then we take a closer look at the Haruhi rumor: what started it, who’s spreading it, and what it would mean for the franchise if true.
This episode is a must-watch for anime fans who want clarity, not clickbait. Expect:
A calm, evidence-focused breakdown of the Record of Ragnarok “forbidden” claims. Context on how streaming rights, regional laws, and platform policies can lead to removals. A careful debunking (or confirmation where applicable) of the Haruhi Suzumiya rumor. Discussion on how rumors spread in fandoms and how to verify anime news.

00:51and that pressure forced Netflix to remove the series from its Indian catalogue.
