The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

story

"I've got no interest in ordinary people. If there are any Aliens from Outer Space, Visitors from the future or those who are gifted with supernatural powers, come forward to me". That was a way the beautiful Haruhi Suzumiya introduced herself to the class on her first day of school.
It's not as if you're reading a Science Fiction Novel for crying out loud...but that was the way she behaved. Haruhi is serious about this from the bottom of her heart. Haruhi becomes upset, waiting for the Aliens that never seem to show themselves. She creates a club to search for the mystery of this world on her own and names this club, Suzumiya adds Oomph into Space Club or the SOS Club. If you join this Club for some cursed reason, your ordinary life may change quickly to a supernatural one!

Lucky Star

story

Though Konata Izumi, a high school girl, is extremely athletic, she refuses to join any of the school's sports teams. And though she is quite bright, her grades remain low. Her mediocrity at school is because she's a hardcore game/anime lover, and is not interested in anything else. For the students at Ryouoh Gakuen High School, time passes at a very lethargic pace. Konata' s female friends - Kagami Hiiragi, an honor student; Kagami's twin sister Tsukasa, a great chef; Miyuki Takara, a well-born rich girl; and Akira Kogami, cheerful and energetic - continually get involved with Konata's life.
