When Haruhi accidentally breaks an expensive vase belonging to the wacky Host Club, she is made to serve under them until her debt is paid off. Haruhi is soon made a Host, but in order to pay off what she owes, she must continue to allow the Host Club's customers to believe she is a boy.

Trivia

Vic Mignogna and Caitlin Glass both spearheaded getting Ouran to the United States for dubbing, after they both saw it in Japanese.

Vic's audition landed him the role in the end.

User Reviews

A really teen oriented anime show

This show tackles many social problems in a teenagers life nowadays. The first dozen episodes explains and dissects the characters for the audience and also creates some mini plots in the series that they elaborate on later. A few topics of taboo they encounter is, Lesbians, incest, rape, bullying, love triangles and gender oriented problems. No show in North America covers these things, yet maybe they do , but for me its too subtle. If America or Canada do make a show this risqué for kids then , wow! I kind of like Japanese animation better than what N.A. does.

But not all of the ones listed are taken very seriously, so it keeps the environment light and comedic. Great show even if I'm watching it from the other side of the planet. July, 5 2006 Ontario, Canada.
