Spinning my leek

This episode was absolutely fantastic !
It was so great to Tsuruya again, since she was in like 2 episodes in the first season of the show, would of been a little better if she did more then just laugh, but just seeing her laugh made me laugh halve the time. The " scene " was so extremely epic, the emotions of the characters really shinned. I think it was one of the first times i was slowly beginning to feel anger towards to Haruhi, she really is going sick from power. Im really liking how this " arc " is playing out, i had no idea the movie had so much depth into it. I had read about all the little paranormal incidents that occured, but i didn't know how much of a massive problem it was. At any rate, im really looking forward to seeing how this all winds up. Fantastic episode !!!!

Absolutely, take away the powers and the extreme situations of the anime and the character that is left is a fairly basic talented high school kid who is slightly socially akward and insecure about her feelings. Which results in escapism and competative behaviour. She also clings to her only real friend (at least from her perspective) but acts aloof as not to show vulnerability, again fairly normal behaviour.

Absolutely not.
Haurhi is obsessed about aliens, espers, sliders, and time travelers. That alone is pretty unique. She's exceptionally assertive, quite courageous, very theatrical, can be a very good detective at times, almost never lets her emotional guard down, has an incredible talent for procuring expensive items at no monetary cost, has an unbelievable degree of energy and zeal, is insanely competitive, has a keen sense of aesthetics and style, is one of the most domineering characters in all of anime, and... I could go on for ages. She is not even remotely close to a normal girl... she is absolutely unique. And that's what is great about her. Edit: I thank you for answering my question, all the same.

When it comes to interests and how one interacts with others... no, normality for humans is not about being unique. The vast majority of people naturally flock towards the most popular common interests... this is partly what makes them common interests in the first place. People love to be bandwagon jumpers.
Also people tend to want to fit in, and be seen as part of the crowd, or at least as part of a particular niche community. Haruhi was quite willing to be an eccentric loner until she met another loner by the nickname of Kyon. Haruhi takes pride in standing apart from the crowd, and being her own person even if it costs her friendship with other people. Haruhi's interests are not normal; not to the extent that she cares about them anyway. A normal girl would not try out every club in school and find it impossible to enjoy being in either one. A normal girl would not co-opt another club's club room to start up her own vaguely defined club, ostensibly surrounding the idea of exploring unexplained phenomena and unsolved mysteries.

We're talking about a girl that actually stood up in class during classroom introductions and said, "I don't have any interest in ordinary people. If anyone here is an alien, time traveler, slider, or esper, please, come see me! That is all." I mean... how more abnormal can a schoolgirl get?

That's abnormal too, quite frankly. There's nothing necessarily wrong with being abnormal. In fact, the world would be an awfully boring place with out abnormal people... and with out extraordinary characters like Haruhi.

Haruhi doesn't like Kyon showing particular attention to, or affection for, Mikuru. ... At the very same time, she continually dresses up Mikuru, against Mikuru's wishes, in fetish outfits, usually for the explicit purpose of sex appeal. And then the first person that she shows Mikuru off to is... Kyon. I mean... really now, lol. What normal girl would go out of her way, on a regular basis, to make somebody she's jealous of look more sexy? Quote:

But even the most extraordinary of people will gradually come to care about the people that he or she are constantly around. Quote:

It's fairly obvious to me that what Haruhi needs more than anything (and this is going to sound quite hokey, but it's the truth, I think)... is love. And acceptance/support/friends. Haruhi's heart works normally, as we see by her reactions to her fight with Kyon, and her strong reaction to his uplifting of her later on. Her mind is quite strange, though. It's this combination of the two that helps to make her unique.

If Haruhi could manipulate the free will of others, Mikuru would almost certainly be less resistant to Haruhi's dressing her up, and Kyon would not have objected so pronouncedly to what Haruhi was doing to Mikuru.

I would like to think that Haruhi does have the ability to change and manipulate others but hasn't done so with Mikuru and Kyon because she likes them the way they are already .. -u- |
