The SOS Brigade (SOS団 (エス・オー・エスだん), Esuōesu dan?) is a club that Haruhi started shortly after entering high school. The club name is an acronym of "Sekai wo Ooini Moriagerutame no Suzumiya Haruhi no Dan" (世界を大いに盛り上げるための涼宮ハルヒの団, "Sekai wo Ooini Moriagerutame no Suzumiya Haruhi no Dan"?), which roughly translates into "Haruhi Suzumiya's Brigade to Greatly Enliven the World". To retain the acronym, the official North American adaptation refers to the group as the "Spreading Excitement All Over the World with the Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade", whilst unofficial fan translations generally adopted the title "Save the World by Overloading it with Fun, Haruhi Suzumiya's Brigade".
Haruhi initially conceived the club idea when Kyon lectured her about how meaningful inventions throughout history were created by geniuses: that technological advancements in the world were wrought by a limited number of lucky individuals. Inspired by this speech, Haruhi decides to create a club to address the woeful lack of aliens, time travelers and espers in her life.
The goal of the SOS Brigade is to "Bring More Excitement to the World" through finding aliens, time-travelers and espers and hanging out with them, according to Haruhi. The club's main contribution is a film intended for the High School cultural festival entitled The Adventures of Mikuru Asahina: Episode 00 starring Mikuru, Yuki, and Itsuki as the main characters. It was filmed and narrated by Kyon and directed by Haruhi. Kyon stayed up all night attempting to edit the footage into something coherent, but was only partially successful. The film's plot consists of a number of meta-fictional parodies of anime clichés.
In addition to the movie project, Haruhi involves the club in various activities such as participation in a baseball tournament and a summer trip to a tropical island owned by one of Itsuki's acquaintances.
