Since I put the cleanup tags on the article: the unreferenced it pretty obvious, but the cleanup is speicifically pointing at the Character section as is -- currently it's a mix of content summarizing the list (as it should per
WP:SS) and a listing of clubs, which probably needs to be split into its own section, in addition to scrubbed with an edit brush. (Though I just noticed that the visual novel needs to be added to the infobox as well.) Since I plan to start cleaning up the character list if it survives the AfD, I'll probably get to this in due course, but I thought I'd mention it here in case someone else wants to tackle it in the meantime. —

I would like to note that in Tamaki's character description, he is called the "most attractive of the hosts". I believe this is an opinion rather than a fact, as the point of the Host Club is to give the girls a variety of boy "types". I will change this to "considered the most attractive of the hosts, as he is the prince and president of the club."
I hope this is alright! -Mia, contact me: fanfiction.net, account name: LinkinParkGurrl51 (I don't wish to put personal information, you can reach me through this account) —Preceding

Telling the twins apart
The article has been edited to say that Tamaki and Haruhi can both tell the twins apart. I know Haruhi can, but since when can Tamaki do so also?

I don't know what that is, but please do so! I've been up to date in the series, but nowhere has it shown that Tamaki clearly knows how to tell the twins apart, and he couldn't do so even the first time he met them.

Well, he should be able to tell them apart, since in one of the flash backs it went over how he spent time after time trying to tell them apart, and they wouldn't join the club untill he could tell them apart...but up to date, he actually can't. He just told them a bunch of contradictory stuff (want to be told apart, but don't want to be told apart, want to be seperate individuals, but want to be thought of as one... etc.etc.) So no, he never could (and probably never will) be able to tellt hem apart.

Tamaki can tell the two apart. There was a contest that involved gathering ingredients for curry in the manga. One of the tests were that the contestant has to play the "Which one is Hikaru game." As far as I know, Tamaki got it right since he was allowed to pass. I think it was on chapter 70 or 71.

Number of chapters
What is the reason for the "chapter number" field to be unavailable? The OHSHC article does have a list of manga chapters... --
Hyakurei (

The main reason is, as I understand it, that they all get collected into volumes in the end, so there's no point in measuring the length both ways. If you want to lobby for adding a chapternumber parameter to the template, the place to do that would be at the
template talk page. —

Okay, I'll look into that, but if you put it that way, how come the Bleach article has a similar thing? If it's really not that necessary, I don't mind not having it there; just thought more info would help. ~

It's a little iffy. It has been discussed at the project page before, but from what I could get people like to do it for long-standing ongoing series which has a lot of chapters. The point is, though, that they're not supposed to do it, or else we'd have a "chapter number" field in the infobox, but as of now, we have a "volume number" field, and that is the only thing that it should be used for.--十八21:24, 2 August 2008 (UTC)reply
Too much plot
There's too much plot description, meaning it isn't necessary to describe every club in the series. I suggest that all characters, with the exception of the Host Club be removed. Just felt tagging was a bit harsh and wanted a warning before an exodus of a good chunk of the page. ~

We seem to have a small scale edit war here over Hunny's age. It seems like people think he's 17, and people think he's 18... and it's confusing. How old is he? Until there's some proof of his age nobody should edit that section.
わwaらraうuSmile!02:48, 25 November 2008 (UTC)reply
It may be because the author changed his birthday partway through the beginning, as she admits in the aftermaterials in volume 1. He's 18, though, at least in the manga, even with the freewheeling timeslips. —

Then cite that information, as far as i've seen so far, there isn't sufficient enough data to prove that point. Otherwise the tag is misplaced and should be removed. —Preceding

Basically, the rationale is that since Haruhi is impersonating a guy, and entertains girls who think she's a guy, that is grounds enough for the T in LGBT.--十八08:11, 2 June 2009 (UTC)reply
they call that androgyny, but it's carried out as such. Besides, this tag mars the reputation of a number of key faith driven individuals who worked on this series.

Isn't Haruhi's dad a transvestite? The Lobelia subplot can be considered related as well. The tag seems appropriate.

Ranka is
Otokonoko and bisexual, while Haruhi's gender identity has been discussed by The Daily Dot and The Mary Sue. There is also the homosexual allusions throughout the franchise with the twins, as well as and Mori and Honey. None of this is actually mentioned in this article, though. Whether Wikiproject LGBT feels that this article falls under its jurisdiction is their choice, but it really doesn't matter at all if it is or isn't tagged as LGBT. It's not that readers are supposed to look on talk pages. ~

Tamaki Suou is listed in the character section as being the idiotic host king. I would have thought that naive was a better description. He's obviously a cloud cuckoolander, but he's been shown to be a bit to perceptive and given to obsfucating stupidity for idiotic to be a completely fair description, hasn't he? --

I just happened to come across a
2006 blog post in which a person described an old interview with Bisco Hatori. According to insaneneko, Bisco has done an interview with Pafu magazine in 2003 about Ouran. The information that came out of this interview could fit perfectly in a Production or Development-section, with Waterboys being an inspiration to the manga and Haruhi originally being intended as a purely male character. I am personally particularly interested in the many conception-facts on
Haruhi, but I have absolutely no idea how to obtain this magazine. I'm just dropping by in case anyone happens to know how to confirm this information and is interested in adding it, just so you know it might be there ^_^ ~

Reverse harem
@
Kcorilol: is there any reason why you reverted the infobox back to "harem" rather than "reverse harem"? The latter is more specific and used by reliable sources to describe the work. ~

I was wondering whether the character 部 was supposed to be pronounced as クラブ (kurabu) or ぶ (bu) since while the Wikipedia page uses クラブ (kurabu) for the Hepburn Romanization, the anime uses ぶ (bu) instead, so which is it? Sorry, I know everyone else probably already knows this, but I'm still a little confused.
