{{tropelist}}
* [[An Aesop]] / [[Script Wank]]: Played for laughs in the skit for [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHIUo62moUc HAROOHEE 11 PREVIEW]. The creator is busy finishing the edits for episode 11 of the abridged series, when his laptop's logic board fails. After an stunned reaction and an angry punch to its screen, he gets another laptop at Best Buy and is able to transfer its hard drive data to the new computer. In the end credits:
{{quote|"''Now remember, kids, always be sure to backup your important data in case'' your laptop decides to ''fucking '''[[Suddenly Shouting|DIE ON YOU!!!]]'' FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!!!'''"}}
* [[Armor-Piercing Question]]: Downplayed in the original Ep. 1:
{{quote|'''Kyon''': Is it true that you only talk to aliens?
'''Haruhu''': No.
Line 41:
'''Ryoko''': I'm sure your club's got quite a lot of attention because of it.
'''Kyon''': Oh hey, Ryoka. And no, not really. You'd be surprised at how little attention is given to Japanese schoolgirls being molested by older men. It's uncanny.
'''Ryoko''': I know. Why, I get molested ''all the time.'' ''(Waves papers she's holding)'' And I got the documents to prove it. ''(Makes loud noise with them)''}}
''(Ryoko waves the papers she's holding.)''
'''Ryoko''': And I got the documents to prove it.
''(She makes loud noise with them.)''}}
:* Yuki is [[No Social Skills|really bad at telling jokes]]:
{{quote|''(At Yuki's appartment)''
Line 49 ⟶ 52:
'''Yuki''': I'm just kidding. People joke with one another that way, do they not?
'''Kyon''': Uh, yeah, I guess so. So are you the only one who lives here?
''(Beat. Yuki serves tea to Kyon without a word.)''
'''Yuki''': Yes. Drink.
''(Kyon does so.)''
'''Kyon''': ''(thinking) ''Skeptical!''
'''Yuki''': Ha.
''(BeatSilence.)''
'''Kyon''': Huh.
'''Yuki''': [[Slipping a Mickey|You have swallowed the roofie]]. Now, I will do things of a sexual nature to your unconscious body.
''(BeatSilence.)''
'''Yuki''': I'm just kidding. People joke with one another that way, do they not?
'''Kyon''': '''SO ANYWAY!'''}}
<!-- (Evil Has a Bad Sense of Humor: Downplayed) -->
:* Ep. 2's [[The Stinger|Stinger]]:
{{quote|'''Kyon''': Oh, I feel really.. dizzy.
''(He collapses to the floor)''
'''Yuki''': The roofie has kicked in.}}
:* (In Ep. 3), Afterafter all of Yuki's exposition:
{{quote|'''Yuki''': I'm gonna need a cigarette after all that.
'''Kyon''': Dude, I don't even- Is this all just some elaborate plan to have sex with me, or..?
'''Yuki''': You mean again?
'''Kyon''': ........What?}}
:* In Ep. 4, Kyon is figuring out who wrote the note in his locker:
* [[Blatant Lies]]: (Ep. 9) The Butler says the host is busy with his "bathroom blitz", even as we hear his murder screams and him saying "That was really sharp and also painful, I am dead now. (fart)"
{{quote|'''Kyon''': ''(narrating)'' And I doubt Haruhi would write a note. If she had something important to tell me, she'd probably just molest me in the hallway again. My butt still hurts.}}
* [[Blatant Lies]]: (In Ep. 9), Thethe Butler says the host is busy with his "bathroom blitz", even as we hear his murder screams and him saying "That was really sharp and also painful, I am dead now. (fart)"
{{quote|'''The Butler''': He actually told me to tell you that.}}
* [[Buffy-Speak]]:
* [[Buffy-Speak]]: As Koizumi puts it in Ep. 10, the host has been murdered using "a stabby-like object."
** In Ep. 4, Kyon remarks that Haruhi looks less "Ha-roo-hii-ee" than usual.
* [[Camera Abuse]] In Ep. 1:
* [[Buffy-Speak]]:* As Koizumi puts it in Ep. 10, the host has been murdered using "a stabby-like object."
* [[Camera Abuse]]: In the original Ep. 1:
{{quote|''(While the camera quickly moves to Haruhi's face)''
'''Kyon''': ''([[Inner Monologue|narrating]])'' There stood this ''beautiful'' girl who-
Line 79 ⟶ 85:
'''Haruhi''': OW! FUCK ME!
'''Kyon''': Changed my life as I knew it.}}
:* The same thing happens in the Redux, but condensed.
* [[Captain Obvious]]: (In the original Ep. 1). While Haruhi looks at a swimming pool:
{{quote|'''Haruhi''': ''(background falsetto voice)'' Just as I thought. This is water.}}
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: In Ep. 3, while Yuki tell Kyon some important things:
{{quote|'''Yuki''': So to put it in terms that would befit, Harihu Suzumiya and I are not normal human beings.
'''Kyon''': '''''I knew it!''' ''She's a bitch, isn't she?''
'''Yuki''': Yes, but that's not what I mean.}}
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]:
** Parodied in episodeEp. 7. Kyon's sister is telling an anecdote about her brother that [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|sounds like]] [[A Date with Rosie Palms|he was masturbating]].
{{quote|'''Voiceover''': IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE ''SEX!''}}
* [[Dramatic Irony]]: Parodied in Ep. 1 Redux:
* [[Freeze-Frame Bonus]]: In Ep. 1, a caption points to a sleeping student as [[Black Comedy|"That guy's dead"]].
{{quote|'''Kyon''': How the fuck did you just change your hair?
''(Haruhi pounds her desk)''
'''Haruhi''': ''I'm a god and I just don't know it yet!''
''(Haruhi screams and walks away)''}}
* [[Freeze-Frame Bonus]]: In the original Ep. 1, a caption points to a sleeping student as [[Black Comedy|"That guy's dead"]].
* [[Freudian Slip]] In Ep. 3, when Yuki explains her mission to Kyon:
{{quote|'''Yuki''': My mission is to observe- I mean spy on naked in the shower- I mean observe Haruhi Suzumiya and report back to the Data Integration Thought Entity.
Line 96 ⟶ 108:
{{quote|'''Haruhi''': The mysterious transfer student is finally here! '''Excitemeeeeeeeeeeeent!'''
'''Kyon''': ''(in between Haruhi)'' Isn't it a little early for you to be '''LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS?!'''}}
* [[Glad I Thought of It]]: In the original Ep. 1, Kyon whispers to Haruhi about making her own club. Later:
{{quote|'''Kyon''': ''([[Inner Monologue|narrating]])'' As I was nodding nearly napping Suddenly there came a tapping '''ON THE BACK OF MY FUCKING SKULL!'''
'''Kyon''': ''(shouting to Haruhi)'' '''What the hell?!'''
'''Haruhi''': New idea! I'll just start my own club!
Line 108 ⟶ 120:
{{quote|'''Haruhi''': [[A Worldwide Punomenon|Bullshit!]]
'''Kyon''': ''Haa'', I don't get it.}}
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: In the original Ep. 1, during one of Kyon and Haruhi's conversations:
{{quote|'''Kyon''': So Haruhi, is it true that you like to '''''FLIP YOUR HAIR?!'''''
'''Haruhi''': ''(while she does so)'' I have no idea what you're talking about.}}
* [[Jump Scare]]: (In-Universe) Inthe original Ep. 1, Taniguchi and Ryoko scare Kyon, who gets really pissed off.
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: In Ep. 1 Redux, Kyon notices that Haruhi instantly changed her hair in the same scene with no explanation.
* [[Limited Animation]] (Ep. 9) Parodied and discussed in Ep. 9 with the flip-flaps. As Koizumi discusses the fact that because, from the perspective of the camera, he is obstructing his friends (and their mouths), he moves just enough for Kyon's sister to mock the concept (she is free to make stupid sounds with her mouth, since the camera can see her), until Koizumi move back to his original place, shutting her up.
* [[Larynx Dissonance]]: Haruhi is sometimes voiced by a falsetto male voice. Some characters and most of the background voices are delivered in the same way.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: (Ep. 9) Mikuru, discussed by Kyon/the creator In-Universe.
** In episode 4, Haruhi was voiced by Sydsnap, temporarily replacing the main voice actress (MewVenus) who was unavailable at the time.
** Conversed in Ep. 10. After Haruhi and Kyon leave to investigate:
{{quote|'''Mikuru''': ''(male voice)'' Hey! We're important characters!
'''Yuki''': Coming from the person whose voice changed, like, five times.
'''Mikuru''': Your voice changed too, you saucy mother''fucker.''
'''Yuki''': No idea what you're talking about, you wet noodle.
'''Kyon's sister''': ''(low male voice)'' As Kyon's sister, I must say, this is indeed an outrage.}}
<!-- (Don't Explain the Joke: Kyon's sister usually has a falsetto voice.) -->
* [[Out of Focus]]: Played for laughs in Ep. 10. Haruhi orders Mikuru, Yuki and Kyon's sister ("non-important characters") to stay at their room while she and Kyon ("us main-grown-up characters") do the work.
* [[Overly Long Gag]]:
** [[OverlyIn Long Gag]]: (Ep. 6), "'''Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon! Kyon!''' (etc.)"
* [[Rapid-Fire Comedy]]: A scene in Ep. 1 incorporates [[Medium Awareness]], [[Tempting Fate]], [[Jump Scare]], [[Motor Mouth]], [[Angrish]], [[Funny Background Event]], [[Redundancy]], [[Hong Kong Dub]], [[No Fourth Wall]], [[Just Add Bitch]] and [[Throw It In]].
** In Ep. 1 Redux, when showing Kyon her new club room, Haruhi extends her "Ta-daa!" to an absurd point.
* [[The Reveal]]: (Ep. 9) Parodied. When it turns out the host was murdered, Kyon's sister shrills out a [[Sensory Abuse|painful]], yet hilarious "Dun Dun Dun!"(sensory abuse, loud shrill)
* [[Rapid-Fire Comedy]]: A scene in the original Ep. 1 incorporates [[Medium Awareness]], [[Tempting Fate]], [[Jump Scare]], [[Motor Mouth]], [[Angrish]], [[Funny Background Event]], [[Department of Redundancy Department]], [[Hong Kong Dub]], [[No Fourth Wall]], [[JustThis AddIs for Emphasis, Bitch]] and [[Throw It In]].
* [[The Reveal]]: (Parodied in Ep. 9) Parodied. When it turns out the host was murdered, Kyon's sister shrills out a [[Sensory Abuse|painful]], yet hilarious "Dun Dun Dun!"(sensory abuse, loud shrill)
** With the murder mocked to shreds, [[The Un-Reveal|it was pretty obvious.]]
* [[Sophisticated As Hell]]: In Ep. 4, just as Yuki interrupts Ryoko's assault on Kyon:
* [[Shout-Out]]
{{quote|'''Yuki''': Your orders were not to engage or provoke any form of response. What the hell?}}
** (Ep. 1) "As I was nodding nearly napping Suddenly there came a tapping ON THE BACK OF MY FUCKING SKULL!" A reference to ''[[The Raven (poem)|The Raven]]'' by [[Edgar Allan Poe]].
* [[Stalker Without a Crush]]: In the original Ep. 1:
** (Ep. 9) Kyon and friends make Koizumi make doorbell sounds and sing the "A Thousand Miles" pre-chorus between the noise.
** "Hello, sir and/or madam!" (maybe from ''[[Catch-22]]''?)
** A variation on ''[[Monty Python and the Holy Grail]]'': "One, two.. seven!"
* [[Stalker Without a Crush]]: In Ep. 1:
{{quote|'''Kyon''': ''(narrating)'' Over the next few days, I learned more about Miss Suzumiya, mostly through what Tanaguchi's told me and uh, a little stalking on my own behalf.
That's not weird or anything, is it? ''Is it?'' Naah, I didn't think so.}}
* [[Suddenly Shouting]]: Often used in dialogue for laughs.
* [[Suicide as Comedy]]: In Ep. 1:
** In the original Ep. 1:
{{quote|'''Kyon''': ''(narrating)'' So the next day, we were assigned new seats at random, and I was hoping for the seat near the window in case I decided to '''''KILL MYSELF!!!'''''
And Haruhi was sitting direcly behind me, so that was looking like a pretty good option.
Line 142 ⟶ 147:
'''Haruhi''': It's so boring around here, you know? I'm tempted to jump out a window.
'''Kyon''': ''(thinking)'' Oblige me, O mighty temptress.}}
:* In Ep. 1 Redux, Haruhi says to Kyon that, should they fail to find Bigfoot or Sayans in her club, they'll probably kill themselves.
* [[Take That]]: In Ep. 4, while Kyon meets Ryoko at the classroom to talk about Haruhi:
{{quote|'''Ryoko''': It's just that if something was wrong and no one was doing anything to try and stop it, wouldn't that only make it worse?
'''Kyon''': You mean like [[Pop|pop music]]?
'''Ryoko''': ''Exactly'' like pop music.
'''Kyon''': Awesome.
'''Ryoko''': Quite.}}
* [[Take That, Audience!]]: Ep. 10's intro:
{{quote|"Okay, so you saw that this video is thirteen minutes, and- and- and yet, you're still- you clicked on it. ''You- You're gonna watch it. You're gonna watch this fuckin' thirteen minutes of fuckin' anime bullshit.'' What is '''WRONG WITH YOU?! WHHHHYY ARE YOU WASTING YOUR LIFE AWAY?!!'''"}}
* [[Thanks for the Mammary]]: The original Ep. 1's title sequence highlights Haruhi groping Mikuru from two seperateseparate scenes.
* [[Throw It In]]: In the original Ep. 1, Ryoko's lipflaps just happened to form the words "Pussy!"
* [[Those Two Guys]]: (In Ep. 9), Thethe two cruise announcers. [[The Comically Serious|They]] [[Cloudcuckoolander|compliment]] [[Foil|each]] [[Red Oni, Blue Oni|other]] [[Sarcasm Mode|pretty well...]]
{{quote|"See, [[Lampshade Hanging|this is why we're just background characters not involved in the story.]]"}}
* [[Toilet Humour]]:
** In the original Ep. 1:
{{quote|'''Haruhi''': This is our new room. This is where things start getting interesting.
''(Kyon [[Face Palm|facepalms]] and sighs.)''
'''Kyon''': ''(thinking) '' I have to take '''the biggest crap!'''''}}
:* In Ep. 10, the host struggles to keep his farts upstairs:
{{quote|'''Host''' ''(upstairs)'': ''(farts)'' Ho-ho-holy shit, that was loud. .. [[Verbal Backspace|I mean nothing, I'm dead]].
'''Kyon''': Heh heh, he's not really too good at the "not-being-dead" thing.}}
* [[Vomit Discretion Shot]]: Played for laughs in Ep. 10. Koizumi, at the sight of the dead host, vomits right into the carpet. Kyon is pretty disgusted by this.
Line 161 ⟶ 173:
[...]
'''Kyon''': ''(thinking)'' IN THAT MOMENT, I THOUGHT TO MYSELF HOW LOUD I GOTTA THINK.. JUST TO ''HEAR IT!''}}
