Watashi wa (I am a) new author! :D As you can deduce from my name, I am usually very bored (ask DarrenW) HAHAHA...
Um well, I’m doing a totally different genre from DarrenW and MedusaS. Well, variety is good, right? Ok, just a note before I start, you will never see me reviewing girls dominated animes, because I don’t watch them, HAHAHA.
Here I go! (I decided to start with a simple, non-violent anime)
Ouran High School Host Club (OHSHC) (桜蘭高校ホスト部)
The story kicks start with female protagonist Haruhi Fujioka attending school at the prestigious Ouran Academy as a scholar student. Now, the students in this school all come from wealthy families with the exception of scholars (who come from lower-income level families… Like Haruhi, who is the poorest in school.)
She was trying to find a quiet place to study when she stumbled into the Third Music Room, a place where the Ouran Host Club uses for their club activities: gather and entertain female clients. (NOTE: NO SEXUAL THINGY, just plain talk, have tea and a bit of flirting etc. Um, there are scenes where the guy lifts the girl’s chin, and then roses appear around them… Same thing applies to the twins (BRO-LOVE.))
Anyways, Haruhi accidentally broke this vase that costs at least 8,000,000 yen. (O_o) So, she works as a host club member to pay off her debt (they thought she was a guy at first.) That’s how the story progresses. 6 guys were already in the club when Haruhi joined. They found out she was a girl in the end, but still allowed her to work as a host. The 6 guys are the only ones in the school that knows she is a girl.
Main Characters
<- Haruhi Fujioka, high school freshman. She is quite blunt and is the only normal person in the host club. She is indifferent and quite fearless (except for thunder.) ßSPOILER XD (the thunder part)
<- Tamaki Suoh, full name: René Tamaki Richard de Grantaine, the president (or rather king) of host club. He is the main comic relieve due to his naivety and outspoken personality. He is charismatic and charming, but a bit idiotic at times. He is in 2nd year.
<- Mitsukuni Haninozuka AKA Honey, a 3rd year in high school. He carries around a stuffed bunny called Usa-Chan and loves to eat sweet things. He is the loli-shota type and quite childish. He is champion of judo and karate at school. (KAWAII!!! I LOVE HIM THE MOST XD Just my opinion :D)
Plot: Quite cliché, since there are a lot of stories where the female protagonist dresses up as a guy. In fact, the story doesn’t really progress much; they just have a different theme for dress-up for each episode. Only towards the end, then it gets more interesting… (I’m not telling… *ZIPS MOUTH*)
Theme: Obviously this is a romance themed anime. There is also humor and friendship in the anime. Teaches that friendship is very important so treasure it and you must chase the one you love/like before they are gone.
Atmosphere: Hmmm… The atmosphere is bright, sunny, cheerful and funny throughout the anime. There are only a few sad or dark scenes and they only serves as explanatory purposes. Well, that’s the reason I watched this anime in the first place, for LOL purposes.
The score thingy:
*[SCORE PENDING]
So, watch this if you want to, LOL XD. This is subbed by LunarAnime.
I love the opening: Sakura Kiss.
PS: There is a human acted drama for this anime. Well, I wouldn’t watch it if I were you, because the actors are not very persuasive and the guy acting as honey sucks. The storyline is exactly the same as the anime, even up to the lines… It just came out recently as in July 2011. So please don’t waste your time people, if you were considering. The original is better, since there are a lot of things humans can’t do in animes. :D
I nearly died trying to write this.
Hint for next review: Historical anime again?
Cheers. Till next time. :D
