Haruhi is a bold, confident, and intimidating young woman, quick to take advantage of any opportunity to show off and prove herself. This often means acting condescending towards others and highlighting her own superiority. She isn't afraid to tell people what she wants and she doesn't back down until she gets it... or at least that's how she behaves when holding up her haughty princess persona... the rest of the time Haruhi could be described as deadpan and down to earth.
