I am very curious why Ouran High School Host Club is so popular. I’ve seen a couple of episodes but didn’t think of continuing it further. Yes, so it does have a unique theme with the concept of “girl thought to be as boy” plot but elsewhere its some sort of wacko series that keeps repeating scenes but just in a different background (example: the neverending sweetness of the twins). As far as I remember, I endured 13 episodes before giving up for searching the secret ingredient why it is so popular. Don’t think of me of someone very stone-hearted, in fact, I very much enjoy light animes like Love Hina, Fruit Basket, etc. I kind of figured the Taiwanese(? not sure) tv series, Hana Kimi, influenced the likeness of the anime but for me it was so irritating. I can approximate that almost 1/3 of the an episode is the character’s admiration of themselves, 1/3 girls screaming adoring the hosts and 1/3 story.. speaking of story, there is no sense in the story. I can’t get anything from it, there is no continuation whatsoever making me least intrigued for the next episode. I’m sorry for constantly dishing the series but is there any unfolding secret that will excite me to watch the next episodes? Or is it really that kind of “sailor moon type” of anime that wastes golden time for redundant lines and scenes? Maybe I’m just not a fan of men adoring themselves too much or men that are so gay and vain… It was even unusual that I didn’t favor any men character because they are all completely gay!!! As for the female characters, oh wait, theres only one.. geez.. and he has short hair too.. >_< The drawing is not even great! They don’t have noses and have emotionless eyes!!!
Bottom line, I am dissapointed.. Yeah it did made me laugh at first, but in the long run I just couldn’t stand it.
