As a heterosexual male, I am not into girly anime, so when my girlfriend insisted I watched a reverse harem, I instantly thought this will be a soppy, chick flic anime about who know's what. After watching this anime, I now know how completely and utterly wrong I was. Instead of a perverted anime about 5 guys trying into get in some girl's pants, it is a comedy filled anime that isn't centered around the romance aspect of it.

Story: 9.34/10 *Review
Haruhi Fujioka is a tomboyish, poor female student who enters Ouran Highschool that is populated excessively by the wealthy (besides her). Upon entering the highscool, she tries finding a quite place to study, and enters the Music Room at the school, to her surprise finds the Ouran Highschool Host Club. After showing disinterest, and as she was about to leave, Haruhi breaks the host club's precious vase, and to pay back, she must work for them as a member of the Host Coub. *The story is original, and is actually appealing to not only girls, but to anyone looking for a good laugh. It mad me laugh along with the characters, and I even started shipping character's together (I hope no one finds out I watched this). This anime pacing was great, and the quality of it was better then a few of my favorites. Overall I give it a 9.

Art: 10
The art was high quality, the scenery detailed, and the the characters were animated beautifully. All the boys were attractive (I'm straight), and so where the woman. The animation had higher quality than most *cough* Soul Eater *cough*. I give it a 10.

Sound: 9.56/10
The voice acting was fluent and the voices fit the character's personalities very well. I watched this in dubbed and subbed, and I was supprised to hear Vic Morgonoan play Tamaki Suo in the dubbed. He played this part very well and i give him an A+. The opening theme song "Sakura Kiss" was catchy and modern, while the ending didn't seem to fit that well. Overall I give a very high 9

Character: 8.23/10
The characters design and personalities are refreshing, and the overall appeal of all the Host Club was great. Haruhie wasn't an annoying D.I.D (damsel in distress), the twins were hilarious (though it made me uncomraftable to watch them do the twincest thing), and Tamaki was annoying. But it was your good annoying, because that's his personality and it definitely shown through (lol). The characters were organized very well and it did have lots of character devolpment. 10/10

Enjoyment: 9.41/10 (Oustanding)
I enjoyed this anime, and all of it was great to watch. One thing that bothered me was the parts about "Harhuie in Wonderland" I'm not sure what that was about, but it was diffrent. It reminded me of "Ciel in Wonderland" from Black Butler. Not sure who copied who there. But overall this anime is entertaining and extremely fun to watch. I liked the comedy involved and how it doesn't completely focus on the romance of two characters. Finally a show not about 2 characters getting it on!

Overall: 9.75/10 (Oustanding)
After getting over my myself, and sucking up to watch this anime, I am glad I did. Art, characters, sound and story, are good. My girlfriend is glad I enjoyed it, and I get to pick the anime (SAO FTW). While this was out of my comfort zone, I'm glad I watched it and I hope you enjoy it as well.

TL;DR : Watched a reverse harem and liked it, got brownie points from gf.
