Manga Madness: Ouran High School Host Club

Hello

An nyoung

Konnichiwa

Ni hao

Not done one for a while but it's MANGA MADNESS! This week is a manga called Ouran High School Host Club,it's a romantic comedy and the manga follows Haruhi Fujioka a scholarship student at Ouran High School (a rich kids school). She accidently finds herself in the Host Club and accidently knocks over and smashes an antique vase and as way to pay off her debt of the broken vase the 6 male hosts make her their errand 'boy'. On seeing that Haruhi is skilled at entertaining they ladies that attend the host club they make her an official member of the hosting team and it's around this time they realise Haruhi is in fact a girl that they had mistaken for a guy and they keep quiet with their clientele to keep her there, which Haruhi is happy with as it means she can pay off her debt quicker.
Let me introduce you to the 6 other hosts starting with the leader of the club:

Tamaki Suoh

Tamaki is the founder and president of the host club and she's the club as his family. He's very flirtatious with his clients and is known as the princely type using upper class etiquette and shameless flattery. Throughout the manga he sees himself as a father figure to Haruhi.

Kyoya Ootori

Kyoya is basically Takagi's second in command and takes on the financial side of the host club, his clients when he is seen entertaining class hid as the cool type, he and Tamaki are also best friends.

Hikaru & Kaoru Hitachiin

Hikaru & Kaoru are identical twin brothers that didn't have any friends until they met Tamaki and joined the host club, they are seem as devious and mischievous and use forbidden brotherly love on their clients. They become close with Haruhi when she's able to tells the twins apart.

Mitsukuni 'Honey' Haninozuka

Mitsukuni is known more as Honey and has the appearance of a small child but is in fact 17 years old. He joined the host club with his cousin Mori and was one of the first to graduate from Ouran High and often returned to the host club. He also likes all things sweet and cute.

Takashi 'Mori' Morinozuka

Often known as Mori is Honey's cousin and one is never seen without the other and is the only one that calls Honey by his first name. He also graduated Ouran High with Honey. He's very protective of both Honey and Haruhi seeing her as a little sister and ends up close with both Tamaki and Haruhi.

I watched the anime before reading the Manga and not long as started collecting the volumes of the manga, I read it on my manga app: manga rock and found it really difficult to stop reading it, I loved the characters and like many Anime's and Manga's there were characters I wanted to end up together, I'm not going to reveal who but they end up married. If you love romance and comedy I really recommend Ouran High School Host Club as I was hooked from the first chapter. I only have 2 volumes of the manga so far but continue to keep it on my manga app.
