DVD Reviews of Ouran High School Host Club: Season One, Part Two
DVD Review: Funny enough to make you laugh aloud...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the second, and last, set of Ouran High School Host Club, described as a reverse-harem story. The set holds episodes 14 to 26. There is still the humor, some of it in the form of slap-stick, but there is also a touch of drama as we learn the histories and backgrounds of the characters. Also the last few episodes bring the threat that the club will be ending. Oh, the horror. Well, not really. I just can't take the drama that seriously. With such episodes as Kyoya's Reluctant Day Out and Chika's Down With Honey Declaration, which are the drama filled ones, how could you take any of this seriously? It is funny, choking on your food funny, your drink coming out of your nose funny, but touching? Maybe sometimes, but this is comedy and don't you forget it!
Extras include three commentaries, funny outtakes, a 2009 Host Club calendar, manga pages on the DVD and the normal trailers.
DVD Review: A Club of Kings
Summary: 5 Stars
There are things that just can't be described by any other phrase than "well-made." Anime for Ouran High School Host Club is definitely one of those things. The characters, the story, the artwork, the voice acting, the animation - there is no aspect of this anime that isn't on the positive side of the spectrum.
While the first part mainly focused on the comedy, the second does more so on the drama. Character developments through flashbacks and monologues/dialogues are constantly present, which set the rightful balance for the sake of pacing and mood.
Tamaki, the "King," is supreme as usual.
Mamoru, who played the role of Light from "Death Note" and Zero/Ichiru Kiryu from "Vampire Knight," is the perfect person for this role, no question/hands down.
Vic, whom I thought to be a little shaky in the first part, turned out to be, in my opinion, as good as any English voice actor could ever have played the part. I was glad to be able to watch the anime in both English and Japanese voice-overs without feeling too uncomfortable, and that says quite a lot about the cast at Funimation when an anime is not like Fullmetal, where all the names and terms are in English to begin with. So kudos to every member of the cast, not only to Vic, are in order.
Back to Tamaki himself, his sad childhood is revealed part by part with each episode and all things that have contributed to forming the club, due to his bizarre and wonderful personality, are delicately explained.
Haruhi continues to play her role as the indifferent heroine.
However, I must say, her significance only seemed to decrease as the series went on. Of course, the novelty of a fresh kind of character can only last so long from his/her introduction, but as the person that held everyone together ultimately turned out to be Tamaki, Haruhi was rather stuck being an accessory for jokes and the spontaneous and weird competitions. Her relationship with Tamaki is self-explanatory; with Kyouya, shedding light on his life-view and overall perspective on things is something that she'd already done.
the Hitachin twins, on the contrary, develop while remaining the same.
I have regarded the twins, in the first part, to be... well, bizarre... and weird... and ridiculous and such and such (if you can understand why) but they've played the center role when the second part came around. Although I'm not an identical twin myself--I doubt there is anyone out there who's as IDENTICAL as these twins are--to me, the social problems they were suffering were the most relatable. The concept of individuality loss is shown to the fullest using the isolated Kaoru and Hikaru. There are so many things to be said about them, but my not-so-competent English skills do not allow me to do so about their intricate mind-set.
I'd love to talk about Kyouya, Honey, and Mori, but I've got to finish this review short.
Any host in the club is likeable - at least one that suits your taste.
The story is hilarious and deep - I don't think I've seen a better balance in my life as long as the TV goes.
Along with the excellent original dub, the English one meets the standard in its own way.
The standard anime season length proved to be the most fitting, and the ending was great.
Fair amount of sound/graphic effects and, not that this series needed much of it, the animation was top notch. The fact that fights Mori/Honey had were better than some fights from Bleach or Naruto must be unbelievably embarrassing for them.
Truly an A+ Classic; couldn't recommend it to anyone high enough!

Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far my favorite anime, excellent show and excellent characters.
Ouran is of course a story about a girl named Haruhi Fujioka who is swept up into the host club after breaking an expensive vase in their club room. In this high enjoyable, laughed filled, romance based, character driven story you'll find wall to wall fun with some dramatic plot and lovable characters who stay with you long after the DVD is done.

Description of Ouran High School Host Club: Season One, Part Two
Ouran Academy: An institution of extravagance and prestige where learning is secondary to luxury.Haruhi began the year as an out of place scholarship student, but she's found new popularity as a member of the Host Club. Playing the part of a sensitive suitor and wooing the ladies of the school has become a full-time job. Of course, now that Tamaki and the other boys can no longer deny the charms of her girly side, life feels more like a storybook daydream. But not all fairy tales have a happy ending. The King will have to choose between reality and fantasy - and his decision might force the Ouran Host Club to close their doors forever!
Season 1, Part 2 contains episodes 14-26.

The second half of the reverse-harem comedy Ouran High School Host Club explores the characters' pasts, offering insights into their odd personalities. Identical twins Hikaru and Kaoru never paid any attention to anyone else until Club president Tamaki recruited them; Kyoya, the neglected youngest son of a stern father, found his first friend when his parents insisted he hang out with Tamaki to help cement corporate relations. "Lolita boy" Mitsukuni followed his family tradition as a martial-arts champion. Despite their good looks, social prominence, and wealth, the boys led lonely lives. Tamaki's Host Club has given them the one thing they lacked: a sense of belonging. Haruhi, the girl pretending to be a boy in the group, agrees. The warmth of that realization doesn't prevent the Hosts from squabbling and behaving as insanely as they did in the first episodes, but it gives the series a balance that keeps it from feeling too silly. Although Ouran High School Host Club only ran for a single season, its popularity on both sides of the Pacific may well lead to sequels. The set includes a small 2009 print calendar of the Host Club members. (Rated TV 14: risqu? humor, including allusions to homosexuality and lesbianism) --Charles Solomon
