I am indeed happy! My favourite manga became an anime, was released last week and episode two came out yesterday!

I am extremely pleased with the style and the animation. =) I was in awe with the opening theme XD; …

Host Club starts with Fujioka Haruhi, a commoner, accidently stumbling into the host club of Ouran highschool when looking for a quiet place to study. Haruhi ends up breaking an expensive vase and because of that, Haruhi ends up in debt to the host club and has to work pay it off. (Ouran Highschool is a school for people with a good lineage and for wealthy people. They make it extremely hard for commoners to get into their school. Haruhi got in because of grades, scholarships and all that is bookwormy).

Ouran Koukou Host Club is filled with wonderful characters and a lot of humour. Which is probably why I like it so much! For anime/manga, I always prefer comedy first, plot second and everything else after! Well…art is really important to me too…I probably won’t start something if the art wasn’t decent enough to me. XD;Anyways, about the anime!
Here’s the list of the seiyuus:

At first I thought it’d be weird to have Maaya Sakamoto as Haruhi. =) But it wasn’t bad! I adore Tamaki. XD; Always did and I still do. He’s so delusional I love him. XD; He’s totally gay with Kyouya too.

Haruhi is, I must say, a very unique main character. Haruhi has no preference in gender and has no curiosity nor care for a lot of things that has no self relevance.
Tamaki is the delusional, dramatic and self-loving bishounen. (He gets bashed a lot by the characters in the story).
Kyouya is an “evil” profit-loving and very powerful (in terms of status and information) but hot vice president for the host club.
The twins are great. XD; They’re so in sync and they’re so bratty. They love to pick on Tamaki (who they call “Tono” (Milord)).
Hani-senpai seems a bit like momiji but he has another side. He isn’t just a defenseless young-looking boy…He has a blackbelt and he never knows when he should be using it. (By that I don’t mean he doesn’t ever use it when he should…By that I mean he uses it a lot whenever he shouldn’t…on Tamaki usually).
Mori is like Hani’s servant. He’s very quiet and is kind of like a bodyguard.

Here’s episode two [raw] by x-raws: Yay! Host Club episode 2! [raw]!

Yay! Let’s talk about pairings! I love Tamaki x Haruhi =D…but I don’t mind Tamaki and Kyouya together because they’re “Mommy” and “Daddy” …XD;…and a lot of other things…

Jumping topics again! About episode two…I wish they didn’t cut out my favourite scene! (Same with episode one D=…) They extended episode two into more about that girl and that guy who I don’t care for XD…and took away my favourite part, the Tamaki x Haruhi scene! But it was still great! …So, I can’t be angry =( …well! At least I get it from the manga! ^_^
