New student Haruhi stumbles on the Ouran High School Host Club, an all-male group that makes money by entertaining the girls of the school.
Ouran High School Host Club (Japanese: 桜蘭高校ホスト部, Hepburn: Ōran Kōkō Hosuto Kurabu) is a Japanese romantic comedy manga series written and illustrated by Bisco Hatori. It was serialized in Hakusensha's LaLa magazine from September 2002 to November 2010. The series follows Haruhi Fujioka, a scholarship student at Ouran Academy, and the other members of the school's popular host club. The story focuses on the relationships within and outside the Club.
The manga was adapted into an animated television series directed by Takuya Igarashi and produced by Bones, which ran from April to September 2006. Other media based on the series includes a series of audio dramas, a Japanese television drama series, a 2012 live-action film adaptation, and a visual novel by Idea Factory. Three musical adaptations were staged in Japan from 2022 to 2023.
Ouran High School Host Club has been generally well-received, with its comedy and parody of otaku culture being particularly commended. Its depiction of LGBTQ characters has seen both praise and criticism. The manga was a commercial success, with over 14 million copies in circulation by January 2026.
