haruhiism 

A mock religion, created to express worship of the anime character Haruhi Suzumiya, of Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu fame.

In the series, it is revealed to main protagonist Kyon (a schoolmate of Haruhi's) that Haruhi is essentially God, but is as of yet unaware of her powers. She has the ability to change things in the world that she wishes were different; only her innate common sense, as well as Kyon's constant bickering with her, serve to keep her wild fantasies in check.

Followers of Haruhiism are called haruhiists. This term is used affecionately amongst fellow fans. The term haruhite is supposedly more derogatory, in the vein of Narutard.

Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu/Yuuutsu (The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi) is the first of a series of 9 light novels penned by Nagaru Tanigawa. It was adapted by Kyoto Animation into anime form. A second season of the show was announced this year on 7/7/07 (the Tanabata festival).

Lucky Star, another anime produced by KyoAni, frequently references Haruhi.
"Long live Haruhiism! The Goddess has returned for a second season!"

"Yeah, I've seen all the dubs and subs of the series, and of course learned the dance, too. I'm definitely a haruhiist for life now."

"I lol'd so hard when Konata gave her that Brigade Chief armband! PRICELESS!"

Haykuhi is the type of girl who doesnt give a shit about what people think. She tends to get distracted from her homework quite easily. She is really pretty, nice, and quiet. She loves shopping for dresses, whether online or at the mall, and she loves anything that has to do with the beach. Besides the fact that she can't stand annoying people, she really has a big heart and shows compassion to those she loves.
