Plot

Main article:List of Haruhi Suzumiya characters

Kyonis a sardonic, witty student at North High School inNishinomiyawho once sought to have an extraordinary life, but after deeming the notion childish, now seeks little more than a normal life. At school, however, he ends up befriendingHaruhi Suzumiya,an eccentric schoolgirl that sits behind him in class who is constantly seeking to make life more interesting for herself, ranging from doing her hair a certain way each day of the week to actively searching for supernatural phenomena and figures. One day, Kyon accidentally plants in Haruhi's head the idea for her to start a club to engage in her eccentricities, so she establishes a club called the "SOS Brigade"(SOS đoàn,Esu-Ō-Esu Dan),short for "Spreading excitement allOver the world with HaruhiSuzumiya Brigade "(Thế giới を đại いに thịnh り thượng げるための lương cung ハルヒの đoàn,Sekai oŌini Moriageru Tame noSuzumiya Haruhi no Dan)(In the school's official paperwork Kyon renamed it "Support the Student Body byOverworking to Make the World a Better Place StudentService Brigade ") to investigate mysterious events, while roping Kyon into being a member himself.

Haruhi soon recruits three additional members: thelaconicbibliophileYuki Nagato,the shy and timidMikuru Asahina,and the unflappable transfer studentItsuki Koizumi.Over time, these members soon reveal themselves to Kyon to be the types of extraordinary characters that Haruhi seeks: Yuki is analieninterface sent by ahive mind;Mikuru is atime travelersent from the future; and Itsuki is anesperthat works for a secret society. Each of them have been sent by their respective organizations to observe Haruhi, who is unaware that she masters the powers of agod.Haruhi's powers grant her the ability to create and destroy the fabric of reality on a whim. They activate without her knowledge whenever she wills really hard for something to happen or when she is in a bad mood. Each of the organizations believe that should Haruhi learn of her powers or be put in a bad enough mood, it could destroy the entire universe. As such, the three club members, together with Kyon, work to keep life happy for Haruhi to prevent such an apocalyptic scenario under the guise of being part of the S.O.S. Brigade, as well as combating external threats that seek to exploit Haruhi, all while forming a bond as a band of misfits.

Cultural impact

edit
Fans performing the "Hare Hare Yukai"dance atAnime Expo2007

The anime series became anInternet phenomenonin Japan, Asia, andEnglish-speaking countries.Over 2,000 clips of the series and user-created parodies and homages were posted tovideo sharingwebsites such asYouTube[88]and the Japanese video-sharing websiteNico Nico Douga.

One particular homage is the recreation of the dance choreography in the ending animation of the theme song, "Hare Hare Yukai",which generated so much public interest that it was credited for establishing thecover dancegenre on Nico Nico Douga andYouTube.[89]The popularity of these clips (and those of other popular Japanese series) led the Japanese Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers (JASRAC) to request that YouTube remove clips claimed to be under the copyright of their members.[90]Business journalist Tadashi Sudo attributed the anime series' success towards coming out during a time when the Internet streaming market was new and being able to take advantage of it.[89]An example described was how Nico Nico Douga was established around the same time the anime series debuted, and they were able to capitalize off each other's success.[89]

The popularity of the series made Aya Hirano one of the earliest examples of the "idolvoice actor "crossover in the late 2000s.[91]Haruhi, Yuki, and Mikuru (voiced by Aya Hirano, Minori Chihara, and Yūko Gotō), along with Japanese drama actorToma Ikuta,made their first Japanese ad appearance in promoting Lotte Acuo Gum in March 2010.[92][93]Lucky Starmakes numerous references to the series.[94]

The non-chronological broadcast order of the anime inspired a math problem: "What is the fewest number ofHaruhiepisodes that one would have to watch in order to see the original 14 episodes in every order possible? "In 2011, efforts to solve"The Haruhi Problem"on4chanled to a proof of the lower bound for the minimal length ofsuperpermutations,solving what had been an open math problem since 1993.[95]
