The Cries of Haruhi Suzumiya: Difference between revisions

=== In addition to the character tropes present in the original work, this story provides examples of: ===

* [[A God Am I]]: {{spoiler|Haruhi}} doesn't quite think she's a god, but rather, {{spoiler|the "Hammer of Oyashiro-sama". It's still a Very Bad Thing.}}

* [[Anyone Can Die]]

* [[Arbitrary Skepticism]]: [[Irony|Haruhi is an atheist]].

** Rika, {{spoiler|Desperately protecting Kyon from Homidical!Nagato}}

* [[Bloody Murder]]

* [[Break the Cutie]]: Ok, {{spoiler|Itsuki}} isn't exactly one, but seeing him breaking down is....rather unsettling.

* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: in Tsukuribanashi-hen:

** {{spoiler|Actually, there was no Ryoko. [[Mind Screw|Figure that one out.]]}}

*** {{spoiler|Simple. Ryoko was not there like Mion was not there with the hammer killing Keiichi in Watanagashi-hen. Both of them halucinated in thier respective arcs and died because of the same thing, a heart attack.}}

* [[Dude, She's Like, in A Coma]]: It's heavily implied that {{spoiler|Rena molested - or worse - Kyon}} after {{spoiler|he passed out.}} {{color|snow|She didn't, though.}}

* [[Due to The Dead]]: {{spoiler|Rena}} gets what can only be barely called a funeral, consisting of being buried in a pit by three people and no rites. However, {{spoiler|neither Kyon, Nagato, or Koizumi know any last rites}}, and {{spoiler|Kyon}} sincerely wishes that she could be given a better burial then the one given.

* [[Mythology Gag]]: More or less an in-continuity [[Historical In-Joke]], and it's not directly stated, but it turns out that {{spoiler|the reason that one of Hanyuu's horns is broken is because Nagato broke it off}}.<ref>Kamigoroshi-hen takes place in a relatively early arc, only about twenty years into the [[Groundhog Day Loop]] as opposed to a century.</ref>

* [[Newspaper Dating]]: Only used as a last-second conformation that {{spoiler|the SOS Brigade is in 1983}}: the real notification is that the date on {{spoiler|Kyon's cash}} is off.

* [[Non Sequitur Thud]]: Haruhi gets one (with a [[Call Back]] to boot!) after {{spoiler|being poisoned by Mion's soup.}}

* [[Noodle Implements]]: Mion wants to do unpleasant things to Kyon with a katana and some leather straps.

* [[No Sense of Direction]]: Haruhi.

* [[Off With His Head]]: The decapitated corpse. {{spoiler|It's Mikuru}}.

** Also in 4-1, by {{spoiler|Itsuki}} out of all people.

* [[Pretty Little Headshots]]

* [[Right Behind Me]]: {{spoiler|Our narrator}} got hit with it, by {{spoiler|Mion}}.

* [[Sarcasm Failure]]

* {{spoiler|[[Shoot the Shaggy Dog]]}}

* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: Used by Kyon, quite a bit. Haruhi references it by name, as well.

* [[This Is Sparta]]

** Especially 4-5. {{spoiler|Haruhi }}''{{spoiler|dies.}}''

* [[Understatement]]: A lot of it on Haruhi and Koizumi's parts.
