| A high school freshman known only as Kyon encounters a strange individual named Haruhi Suzumiya. Having been somewhat influenced by Kyon, Haruhi decides to set up the SOS Brigade, recruiting Yuki Nagato as a member. Kyon soon learns from Yuki that she is an alien in charge of monitoring Haruhi, who has god-like abilities to subconsciously affect the world. Another alien in Kyon's class, Ryoko Asakura, attempts to kill him to try and get a reaction from Haruhi, but Yuki stops her. Later, Haruhi recruits Mikuru Asahina, using her to blackmail a computer out of the computer club. As a transfer student named Itsuki Koizumi joins the club, Mikuru reveals to Kyon that she is a time traveller sent to monitor Haruhi, whilst Itsuki reveals himself to be an esper who reveres Haruhi as a god. |

| In a last-ditch attempt to recover their stolen equipment, the Computer Research Society challenges the SOS Brigade to a space battle simulation game. The SOS Brigade start off at an advantage due to both their inexperience and the computer club's cheating, but with Nagato's help they manage to win. Later, Kyon wakes up one day to find his whole world has changed. Haruhi and Itsuki are missing, Ryoko has returned and Yuki is a normal, shy human being. The only clue reminding Kyon he hasn't gone crazy is a message from the original Yuki, telling him to gather a set of keys. |

Receiving an antidote to reverse the effects of Yuki's alteration, Kyon returns to the point right after everything changed to confront Yuki. Just then, he is suddenly stabbed by Ryoko but is rescued by future counterparts of Yuki, Mikuru and himself. Returning to his normal timeline, Kyon assures Yuki that if the Data Overmind do anything to harm her, he will reveal his hidden alias to Haruhi and use her powers to stop them. |
