| - The club is not an official school club; it has a constitution and the five members required to form an official club, but is not sponsored by a teacher. The club acts out of the Literature Club headquarters, but replaced its sign with the SOS Brigade sign. The Student Council refuses to recognize them, eventually sparking an antagonistic relationship with the Student Council President. Despite being unregistered, the SOS Brigade conducts normal club sessions and is involved in various activities in school. It often acts like a "real" club, such as sponsoring events at the Cultural Festival. The club poaches from the Literature Club when it needs a budget (for buying baseball uniforms and planning a movie, for instance). It features a desk, a long table, a desktop computer (stolen from the Computer Research Society) and four laptops (obtained by beating the Computer Society in a game), as well as numerous cosplay outfits, board games and books. Near the end of year 0, a particularly cold winter prompted the addition of a space heater (the club room has poor heating from the school). By year 1, Haruhi intended to "air out" the room by throwing unneeded stuff out. Haruhi has subconscious reality-altering powers of which she has no knowledge. Most of the club membership consist of Haruhi's "favored" kinds of people—an alien, time traveler and esper, along with normal humanKyon. Haruhi herself has no idea her clubmates are not ordinary humans. Their tasks include entertaining Haruhi, whose unique personality makes this difficult ... and also because if she gets frustrated her own reality-altering powers can destroy or remake the world. The club must also cover up problems caused by Haruhi's uncontrolled powers and the strange phenomena attracted to these powers, and they must also hide evidence of them from Haruhi and presumably everyone else. As a result, club members frequently engage in ordinary, "slice of life" activities such as playing baseball or filming a student movie, which sometimes become life- or even world-threatening events, but must continue to pretend to be engaging in ordinary activities while simultaneously solving the real problem.
