Tsuruya and Haruhi Are on The Intuition of Haruhi Suzumiya’s Cover

The Japanese cover for The Intuition of Haruhi Suzumiya has been revealed, and it has some rather obvious heroines on the cover. Haruhi Suzumiya and Tsuruya will stand side-by-side in its art.

Here’s the full cover.

It is quite fitting that Tsuruya is on the cover this time. That’s because this book will have a new story in it called “Tsuruya’s Challenge.”

This isn’t the first time Tsuruya has graced the cover of a Haruhi Suzumiya light novel. She was on the front of The Rampage of Haruhi Suzumiya with Kyon’s sister in the original run and the 2010 reprint.

Major characters often appear on the covers of Haruhi Suzumiya light novels. SOS Brigade members Mikuru Asahina and Yuki Nagato show up quite often. While Kyon and Itsuki aren’t as commonly seen, Ryoko Asakura also showed up on a cover.

The Intuition of Haruhi Suzumiya will be here rather swiftly. It will get a simultaneous worldwide release on November 25, 2020, However, YenPress only committed to having the digital version of the light novel available on that day. A physical release is planned, though it doesn’t have a date for its debut yet. (Or if it will have the same Haruhi and Tsuruya cover art.) When it does appear, the other 10 novels in the series will also be reprinted.
