||border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Played with; some members have been assigned the wrong roles to accommodate Haruhi.) ||The Hero||Haruhi (Really The Lancer)|| ||The Lancer||Itsuki (Really The Smart Guy)|| ||The Big Guy||Kyon (Really The Hero)|| ||The Smart Guy||Yuki (Really The Big Guy)|| ||The Chick||Mikuru || ||Sixth Ranger||Tsuruya (Not officially in the Brigade, but still frequently involved.)|| ||Tagalong Kid||Kyon's sister (It's not even a question)|| ||Team Pet||Shamisen||

  • The trope is played with in the drama CD, Sound Around, when Haruhi makes the SOS-Dan into a band and gives them the proper (from her point of view) instruments, though Yuki and Kyon's guitars are switched.
  • It's also arguable that whilst Haruhi treats Kyon as the The Big Guy (i.e. using him for all the menial labour) and Itsuki as The Lancer (i.e. promoting him to her second-in-command), she really sees them as the other way round, since Kyon is her Straight Man (and quite possibly love interest), as well as the one who gave the idea for the SOS Brigade in the first place, whilst Itsuki is just really there to back up all her decisions, and is also the tallest in the original novels (the anime for some reason made Kyon the taller of the pair).
