Quote:To muddy the trail even further: Perhaps, for various reasons, it was never completed to the stage it is in RL. So the big "Haruhi = God" reveal ... never happened. All John Q Fan knows is that there's this quirky fun little story about these people having weird things happen around them.--
I suggest having the Anime/Manga exist in the universe. If anyone call's the SOS-dan on it they claim that they wrote under a psuedoname it in order to fund thier spaceship (cause no way is Haruhi gonna settle for beatermobile). If people believe that the SOS is the real SOS, then they've got a reasonable explanation. If not, then either they did write it, got 'waved and believed it was the truth, or they're lying about that too. To bad the original author is listed as dead in a convient accident, and any financial trail is long gone cold.
