Because God Knows and Day of Sagittarius.

Tanabata also hyped things up for the movie, and the movie was so perfect it just helped everything else. Basically the series was well executed.

Because it's a well written LN series with scifi, mystery and slice-of-life elements, and Kyoani did a marvelous adaptation of it with overall high production values and lots of small highlights (that people give way too much credit), not to mention the perfect seiyuu picks.

Haruhifags are sociopaths.

>Well written

pick one and only one. I'm assuming you've read something other than LNs from Japan though.

>>146624837
Because it is one of very few high school animes that are well written and not pumped full of fanservice.

>tfw been (shit)posting here since I was 13
>tfw Haruhi aired when i was 16
>tfw now 26 and still here (shit)posting from work

goddamn


Also Haruhi was really well animated for its time and was full fo wacky hijinx and hot moe fanservice at a time where all of these were much, much needed anew in the anime industry.

>what is Mikuru's entire purpose as a "character"

>>146631596
Moeblobs and fanservice are not the same thing.

Nuff said.

They aren't but I'm pretty sure there were definitely more than a few lewd moments thrown in.

One of the best directed shows of all time.

>>146631782
I can't really think of anything that bad, save for the few Mikuru undressing scenes and the pool scenes in endless eight.

Haruhi was the proto anime of the 00s.

Watch some non-entry level anime

>>146631216
nah that would be monogatari

Majority of anime is so shit that a good work (that should be the standard for TV shows) like haruhi can be one of the most successful ones.

Gold age of moe, one of the many precursors to the K-on! styles Kyoto-animation is all about today.
I also released at of the biggest "Right place, right time" moment when the manga was at its peak.
The fanbase (both local and international) showed massive support.
Catchy songs (Hare-Hare Yukai and others etc) by an at the time very popular and renowned pop idol (Aya "fuck the whole band, literally except bassist, fuck that guy" Hirano) who was also arguably at her peak.
The premise of the show seemed very entertaining and promising, heck, the pulled off the dreaded "endless 8" which is an artistic slap to the face of all the fans, and guess what? They ate that shit with potatoes and demanded seconds, or should I say thirds. Season three fucking never
All in all, the show managed to spam an overwhelming amount of weebs, the type who would only watch this Lucky Star, Azumanga Daioh and Chuunibyou (TTGL and perhaps FMA:B) for shits and giggles.
If you ask me, it was the characters and the comfy "paranormal but not quite slice of life" setting + massive word of mouth and a HUGE fanbase being a mark of success in its own interest.
They could've expanded more on the paranormal side a bit more although I get that it can be difficult to pull off having to keep the title MC from noticing it while involved in one way or another, that shit with Ryoko Asakura & Yuki Nagato at the start as well as the movie's "Oh shit! I'm so screwed right now" moments are what I appreciated the most.
