From Haruhi-chan:

• Adaptation Displacement - The animated series is far more widely known in the West than the manga it's based off.
• Big Lipped Alligator Moment - The beginning of episode 17.
  • The beginning of episode 25. At first.
• Crazy Awesome - Yuki and Tsuruya.
• Crowning Music of Awesome
  • This plays during the dodgeball match.
  • Myaa, Myaa, Myanko-logy de Jinrui mya?
• Ensemble Darkhorse - Achakura and Kimidori.
  • The famous Mikuru sheep from episode 1.
• Memetic Mutation
  • "You made Mikuru cry!"
  • Honya~!
  • Yuki's bunny headphones have become synonymous with her Haruhi-chan incarnation.
• Tear Jerker - Episode 24 subverts this when it turned out Achakura and Kimidori were just goofing around.
• The Woobie - Ryoko Achakura.
• Woolseyism - When Kyon's little sister kicks Kyon upon his opening the front door in the first episode, she says death instead of desu (they're both pronounced "dess" in Japanese). This joke makes zero sense in English, so the subs give her the vaguely threatening "Nice to see you alive, Kyon!"
  • In the dub, she says "Welcome Back Attack" in which Kyon says that she changed a simple greeting into an attack. It works.
  • The Yasu is the culprit/The Butler Did It change mentioned under Shout Out on the main page.

From Nyoron Churuya-san:

• Memetic Mutation
  • What caused the series to be made.
  • And of course, Nyroro~n.
• Most Wonderful Sound - "Nyoro~n..."
• Nightmare Fuel: That damned final scene. "Sumochi banzai!"
• The Woobie - Churuya and Ashakura.
