Line 9:
Haruhi developed an interest in mecha anime, conspiracy theories, esoteric mysticism, and psychology, and decided to create a universe based on them to entertain herself for a while. unfortunately, things went horribly wrong, and she decided to scrap that universe and create a somewhat nicer, more normal one to apologize to the people she made suffer, and surrounding herself with people she knew in that life: Rei as guess fucking who, Kaworu as Itsuki, Misato as Tsuruya, and of course, [[Those Two Guys]] as [[Those Two Guys|those two other guys]]. Meanwhile, [[Butt Monkey|Shinji]] is [[The Chew Toy|Mikuru]] and Gendo is Kyon (Gendo even looks like a grown-up battered-down Kyon), partly to punish them, but also to ensure Gendo/Kyon can use his bastardry to indirectly play God if need be. She's mostly happy now, but occasionally, her dreams are haunted by strange, destructive, incomprehensible giants wreaking havoc on the works of man...
* Perhaps Haruhi is Shinji (aka, Haruhi is God, Shinji [[End of the World Special|becomes God]], and here on TV Tropes we refer to [[Shinji and Warhammer40K|Shinji as the God-Emperor of Mankind]]) with Asuka's personality, and Mikuru is Asuka with Shinji's personality? Or Mikuru is Asuka's REAL personality unraveled from the Narcissistic Jerkass facade by the [[Mind Rape]] (''[[Nobody Dies]]'' indicates that if Asuka haven't lost her mother, she would be a lot [[The Woobie|nicer]].)
* Alternately, Shinji is Kyon and Mikuru is Gendo.
** Having possibly treated Shinji the worst in the original universe to the point of disgusting even other jerkasses (such as herself), she gave him Gendo's confidence/stoicism/whathaveyou to toughen him up, and gave him the ability to indirectly play god to make up for what she put him through in the old universe. [[Can't Spit It Out|However, she still can't admit]] [[Tsundere|that she likes him,]] [[Butt Monkey|and kept him unlucky for her own amusement.]]
** Meanwhile, due to what Gendo did in the original universe, she stripped him of his confidence/stoicism/whathaveyou, flipped his gender around, and made him into the [[Chew Toy]]. There's a possibility that she remembers what happened in the original universe, but can't say anything about it due to the whole 'Classified Information' Schtick, which would make her 'comeuppance' even more delicious... (Alternatively, Gendo ''[[The Atoner|chose]]'' to play the role of the Chew Toy, well in the ''End of Evangelion'' he asks Shinji for forgiveness {{spoiler|during the Instrumentality sequence where he visualizes himself as eaten by Eva-01}}, and what more painful way for a powerful and domineering [[Magnificent Bastard|Über-]][[Kavorka Man|Pimp]] to atone for his sins than to lie at the [[The Chew Toy|bottom]]?).
Line 257:
 
== There is no coherent meaning in Haruhi whatsoever. The real reason why there are possible infinite Wild Mass Guesses about [[Haruhi Suzumiya]] is because of its heavily archetypal memetic nature ==
It's also noticable in Wall-E's own WMG page, with it having a WMG dart board rivaling Haruhi Suzumiya's own WMG dart board because of its archetypal "Noah's Ark" structure, and ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'''s own WMG page, because of Evangelion taking Character Archetypes for [[Deconstruction]] and [[Mind Screw]]. There is the possibility that the infinite WMG dart board is the result of its memetic construction: Let's see, a [[Five-Man Band]] composed of a reality-warping God, said God can be an infinite WMG dartboard in itself because it's God, an alien [[Emotionless Girl]] with Matrix-like programmable powers, a [[The Smart Guy|philosophical]] esper who is a part of a secret organization, a [[Ms. Fanservice]] time traveller (don't get started on the [[Time Lord/WMG|Time Lord]] page), and a normal [[Real Life]] person stuck in the middle, said real life person was [[Chosen One|chosen]] to have the responsibility to save the world (and then [[The Hero's Journey|the monomyth]] takes place on said person). If that ensemble can't be sandwiched in various types of fanfiction, then I don't know what else from Haruhi can be.
 
== "Magic" and time travel in the future are 1: possible and 2: [[Magic From Technology|based on the skills of human-data interfaces]]. ==
Line 317:
At the beginning, she's going through a depressive episode. She's not interested in anything and finds everything boring and dull. Then she enters a [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl|hypomanic episode]] and starts the S.O.S. brigade. According to the other wiki, hypomanic episodes are characterized by... pressured speech, inflated self-esteem/grandiosity, flight of ideas, [[Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny|easy distractibility]], and involvement in pleasurable activities that may have negative social consequences [[Comedic Sociopathy|(such as dragging Kyon through the corridors by his tie, usurping the Literature room, molesting Mikuru, and blackmailing the computer club president)]]. Note that depressive / hypomanic episodes typically last several days. Later in the series she's going through a "normal" period, though she's still eccentric.
 
== ''[[Angel Beats!]]!'' is in fact a prequel to ''Haruhi''. ==
The cast of ''Haruhi'' is the cast of ''[[Angel Beats!]]!'' several lifetimes on. Yuzuru and Kanade, essentially the two more virtuous people in their ''[[Angel Beats!]]!'' days, have progressed up the cosmic orders of beings to become a god and the Data Integration Thought Entity respectively. Yuri, on the other hand, being a more ambiguous person, is still languishing in the human stage of her existence, having lived some good lives and some... not so good lives. This also applies to much of the rest of the SSS, who are also still human. Taking pity on his former friends, and particularly Yuri, who he had unresolved romantic feelings for despite being more attracted to Kanade the last time they all met, and so decided to give his powers to her for a little while so that she can have fun - and in doing so, he hopes, eventually mature as a person. He then incarnates as a human destined to meet her so as to enjoy himself as well, though also to keep an eye on her; however, to enhance his own enjoyment of the experience, he either temporarily erases his memories of his true nature or simply suspends them for the time being. What he also does, however, is make contact with the DITE and record what actually happened with part of it, the part which then happens to become a certain humanoid interface used by the DITE to interact with the newly-found anomaly on a certain plane of existence. And so, the ball starts rolling...
