The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2009)

Kyon was just an ordinary high schooler, perfectly content with his ordinary life, until the day he met Haruhi Suzumiya. This eccentric, endlessly bored, and intensely energetic girl declares her sole interest lies in finding aliens, time travelers, and espers—and promptly recruits Kyon and two other unsuspecting classmates into her brand-new club, the SOS Brigade. Little does Kyon know, his world is about to be turned upside down in ways he never could have imagined. What begins as a seemingly whimsical club dedicated to the supernatural quickly spirals into a series of bizarre and increasingly significant events, all orchestrated, intentionally or not, by Haruhi herself. As Kyon navigates her unpredictable whims and the truly extraordinary secrets of his fellow club members, he finds himself at the center of a cosmic mystery, where the fate of the world might just depend on keeping one girl entertained.
