Summary: I loved it!....but....it didn't exactly stick true to the manga.
Comment: When I first found out this was coming out in the US I totally FREAKED. I mean, Ouran is like my favortie thing on this planet. So, I got the anime. And I watched it. And I was like "I am liking this...but that's not how Tamaki found out Haruhi was a girl." And I was like "WHAT?" I mean, I really liked it and all because I love Ouran so I can't give it a bad review. But, Haruhi's voice DOES NOT fit. The other voices fit well enough. But hers does not. I can live with the others. And I kind of got used to hers but I still wish that it was another voice. And the Haruhi in Wonderland episode kind of made me mad. But other than that stuff, the anime is really good and really funny. If you like the manga you will most likely like the anime. For now. I've seen then end episodes and they are weird. BUT YEAH. It's good. If you haven't read the manga, go do it! It's the best.

Summary: Different then what I expected
Comment: I have a great respect for Japanese anime but I wasn't so impressed at the english translation.. Seems there were a lot of of the little subtle hints that didn't come accross the same way as in the origional. Also, some of the voice over acters didn't really fit their characters to well. The twins for example are supposed to sound alike so you can't tell them apart but they are two different actors so it was easy. All together I would say that I prefer the origional Japanese language with the subs.

Summary: The ups and downs
Comment: When I first heard that the english dub of Ouran was finally being released, Like most fans of the show who watched the original Japanese version got excited and nervous to see what the voices will be like. And When I heard that Vic would be playing Tamaki, My nervousnes grew bigger (Due to having bad experiences with Vic with my previous Anime).
Soon this wonderful boxset arrived to my doorstep on the day it came out to my surprise. More surprises happened on the way. For one Vic was great! He was surprisingly awesome. Secondly Hunny and Mori matched perfectly. However, Kyoya, Renge and the twins sounded extremely werid. I also didn't like Haruhi's voice because and seemed to low for my taste.
But I admitt this is better then most english dubs out there so I give them credit.
I also wasn't to thrilled with the dvd extras either. First, The Ouran manga preview for the first book (Which I have) Were to small to read (Even If I zoomed in on my TV), Secondly the Outtakes which I originally thought was deleted scenes from the Japanese version from Japan but turned out to be bloopers from the english voice acting.
44 dollors does seem a bit much for this, But, As my duty to support Ouran coming to America Im buying the second boxset. English or Japanese, You can't help but fall in love with this anime.

Summary: Ouran High School Host Club: Season 1, Part 1
Comment: I love this anime. It is cute and a little fluffy, but very good. They did a good job on the subtitles, keeping close to the original translation. The dvd can be watched in english, japanese, or in japanese with english subtitles. There is also bonus stuff like anime trailers, and scene out takes that are very funny. This is by far one of my favorite animes, and I think it will be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Ouran High School. An institution of extravagance and prestige where learning is secondary to luxury. Bookish Haruhi can't afford to slack, being on a scholarship and out of place among the moneyed. No matter… The Host Club is now open! A group of handsome boys dedicated to selling their charms to their bored female classmates, Haruhi is suddenly in debt to the club after breakingan expensive vase in their lair. The only way to pay for the damage? Haruhi will work as a Host! The only problem? Haruhi is a she! Between the wildly inflated ego of the expert escorts and the potential calamities of constant cross dressing, Haruhi's freshman year looks like it will be one to remember.
