==Franchise Overview: What Is The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya?==
Haruhi Suzumiya is a series of Light Novels by Nagaru Tanigawa, featuring illustrations by Noizi Ito.
The title character is a first-year high school student (equivalent to 10th grade or sophomore year in the USA) with a reputation for being beautiful, athletic, intelligent, and extremely eccentric. Seeking to dislodge a feeling of restless dissatisfaction with the world, Haruhi declares to her class that she is completely uninterested in befriending ordinary humans, and would instead prefer to know more fantastic beings such as aliens, time travelers, espers, and the like.
Having tried joining every school club and found them wanting, Haruhi is inspired by her classmate Kyon to start her own school club: the "SOS Brigade", a club devoted to hunting down the fantastic and supernatural beings hiding in the world, and having fun with them. She drags numerous students into the club as well: Yuki Nagato (a quiet bookworm who was already using the room that Haruhi hijacked for her club); Mikuru Asahina (a timid second-year student forcefully recruited to be the club mascot); Itsuki Koizumi (an affable transfer student mainly recruited to fulfill the Mysterious Transfer Student trope); and Kyon himself.
As Kyon's sleepy life is turned upside down by Haruhi's capricious, unpredictable, and sometimes dangerous whims, he soon learns of an explosive secret that must be kept from Haruhi at all costs.
The story is notable for having no definite genre; it convincingly uses comedy, science fiction, fantasy, mystery, romance and Slice of Life in one of the most typical anime settings—an ordinary high school—to tell a story about growing up and changing into a better person. The SOS Brigade is made up of five members that represent a spectrum of anime character types, both in their identities as high school students and their secret identities...
==Character Overview: Who Is Haruhi Suzumiya?==
Haruhi Suzumiya (涼宮 ハルヒ, Suzumiya Haruhi) is a fictional character introduced as the title character and heroine of the Japanese media franchise Haruhi Suzumiya, created by Nagaru Tanigawa. Haruhi first appears in the novel volumes which began in 2003, and later appears in the anime television series adaptation by Kyoto Animation, and the animated film The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya. She also appears in related media in the franchise including the manga adaptation, two original net animation series, and video games. Aya Hirano voices Haruhi in Japanese in all her animated appearances, and Wendee Lee voices her in the English dub. She is also portrayed by Patricia Ja Lee and Cristina Vee in the live action series ASOS Brigade.
Haruhi is depicted as an eccentric and headstrong schoolgirl, who has a great disdain for anything that she views as normal or mundane, and is only interested in supernatural beings or mysterious occurrences. Her displeasure with the school's "normal" after-school clubs leads Haruhi to gather up several students (Kyon, Yuki Nagato, Mikuru Asahina, and Itsuki Koizumi) and found her own: the SOS Brigade, making them participate in activities whether they like it or not. Haruhi also, unknown to her, possesses unconscious god-like abilities to change, destroy, and reshape reality to her desires. The activities of the club and its members become increasingly involved with incidents caused by her abilities.
In an interview, series creator Tanigawa stated that the idea for the character came during a sleepless night at the beginning of the 21st century. Despite the franchise being named after her, it is told from the perspective of Kyon. Haruhi is considered by some to have tsundere character traits in her treatment of Kyon, but is perceived by others as too energetic to be a true tsundere. She has appeared in surveys to decide the most popular anime characters in Japan, and in 2009 was included in IGN's ranking of the greatest anime characters of all time.

Haruhi Suzumiya (涼宮ハルヒ) is the titular heroine of the Haruhi Suzumiya franchise (original light novel series, TV anime, and manga). Enrolled at North High, Haruhi serves as the leader of the SOS Brigade, a club with the purpose of finding aliens, time travelers and espers, that she founded after being unintentionally inspired to do so by Kyon. She is incredibly eccentric and usually anti-social, with no interest in "ordinary" humans.
Although she doesn't know it, all the members of the SOS Brigade she recruits (besides Kyon) happen to fit into these groups (Yuki Nagato, Mikuru Asahina, and Itsuki Koizumi respectively). Haruhi also, unknown to her, has the god-like abilities to change, destroy, and reshape reality. It is said that if she were to become bored enough with the world, she could create closed space, meaning a new world which could prevent destruction in the "real world". After revealing themselves to Kyon, the trio of Yuki, Mikuru and Itsuki all state they were sent by their respective higher-ups to watch over her, and Itsuki specifically mentions they must keep her entertained so she doesn't become too bored.
