Ouran 8: Just Adds To The Fun

I have been a fan of this series from the beginning, and volume 8 just added to my love. In the later chapters, you could say that 'the plot thickens', though not in a way that I expected!

Another great comedic addition to the Host Club series

The book description listed above is slightly inaccurate. The correct preview as shown on the back cover of Volume 8 reads: The first-years in Class 1-A are taking part in a test of courage, where the loser will receive the dubious honor of being dubbed "Best of Cowards." Kazukiyo Souga, the class president and a fraidy-cat at heart, is happy to be on a team with the levelheaded Haruhi, but will he be able to stomach the antics of his other teammates - the twins Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin? That only describes the first of 5 episodes featured in the eighth volume of Bisco Hatori's series, Ouran High School Host Club. You can expect the same amount of hi-jinks and antics in this volume as in the previous episodes. However, this volume also involves the self-examination of the "family" that Tamaki Suoh, the self-proclaimed host king, has created within the Host Club. Certain characters in the club will come to certain revelations concerning the existing relationships within the host club, most of them revolving around Haruhi Fujioka. There is also another flashback episode to the beginnings of Kyoya and Tamaki's first meeting and how they came to be friends. Most of the fun comes in the latter chapters when a kind but fierce-looking 1-D student seeks out the aid of Mori - and consequently the Host Club. It becomes typical Ouran comedy when the interfering members of the club try to re-make the image of Kasanoda-kun, mistakenly/jokingly referred to as Bossa-nova by the male host club members and Casanova by Haruhi. However, Kasanoda threatens to destroy the "family" dynamic when he discovers the Host Club's most highly protected-secret. Just purchase Volume 8 to find out more about what happens next, it's pure comedic gold.

Highly Entertaining

I truly love this series. It makes me laugh out loud. The characters are entertaining and the author just keeps adding layers to their personalities. I find it difficult to wait for the next volume.
