Isn't it just every girl's dream to be surrounded by a crowd of hot pretty boys? What's more if you get stuck with them in a series of compromising yet hilarious situations? Well, Ouran High School Host Club is definitely one way of making that dream come true!
The Ouran High School Host Club
I'm not so fond of any shoujo harem manga or anime, male or female. To top it off, Ouran came out almost the same time as Hana Kimi did and boy, was that something completely overblown! So when my friends told me how awesome it was, I did not believe them. However, I found out, after being bored one day, how utterly lovable it was!
We're talking gender-bender hilarity with the subtlest hint of character development. It's so small, you can barely catch it. And that is exactly why I love it!

The plot is simple. You have your typical Japanese high school scholar heroine destined for epic greatness yet before anything happens, going to school, Ouran High School, is a must. The plot will further explain as to why this school is the chosen setting.
This unwitting heroine gets stuck with a bunch of eye-candy bishounen misfits due to some unfortunate circumstance. And unluckily, they are part of the school-famous Host Club. Thus, their hosting adventures begin!
Their expressions make me LOL
It's all very exciting and cheesy sometimes as Haruhi, the main character, is forced into unwanted situations. But she pulls through in the nick of time, dragging along everyone's heart with her.
It's not a typical Mary Sue story. Haruhi has her own share of problems and complexes as do her male counterparts. Yes, I said counterparts. *insert squees here*
Ouran High School Host Club would not be what it is without its gang of handsome young men. These main characters - Tamaki, Kyoya, Hikaru, Kaoru, Mori-senpai and Hani-senpai will surely steal your heart away with their respective characteristics and stories.
I am pretty sure that the manga is still going pretty strong. However, the anime has been completed with a total of 26 fun episodes.
Ouran is charming and will worm its way into your mind and soul. Some episodes are just stupid enough to bust your gut out from laughing while others might bring that rare tear to your eye.
This is definitely one of the best scenes ever!
It is one anime series I highly recommend to everyone out there.
Til next time! Live long and prosper!
