The Hare Hare Yukai dance has become a worldwide Internet meme with a large online following. The dance is based on the ending theme of a popular anime series "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya," which tells the story of an eccentric high school girl and the SOS brigade, her mystery-busting club. Parodies and derivatives are in abundance as characters from other anime series, video games and manga all dance the Hare Hare Yukai dance. You can learn this popular, eccentric dance and perform it in your favourite Haruhi Suzumiya character costume.
