Ouran High School Host Club/YMMV


 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: In one episode there's a scene where the twins are lying in bed in front of their maids. One of them pulls off the covers and reveals he's wearing a colorful elephant head on his crotch, that blasts confetti into the air. This is not given any lines, and it goes onto the next scene quickly afterwards, with this never being explained or mentioned again.
 * The elephant head is a common way to censor out nudity, so that's probably what that was.
 * BLAM Episode: There was the random episode that was a parody of Alice in Wonderland featuring random single-episode characters from throughout the first season showing up again...
 * Crosses the Line Twice: The twins antics are sometimes seen as this.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: The climax of the final episode.
 * Almost all of chapter 80.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: Don't deny how cool the ending song is for a shoujo. The extended version used in the finale is even better.
 * Crowning Moment of Funny: Has its own section.
 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: "It doesn't look like they plan on letting me be just a memory any time soon, even if just for a little while!" from the manga, when
 * The thunderstom scene between Tamaki and Haruhi (ep. 8 in the anime) deserves mentioning.
 * The last couple of chapters seem to tug between Tear Jerker and this. Seeing all the people Tamaki's met  and Tamaki himself showing such dedication to his grandmother just warms heartstrings.
 * in chapter 80.
 * How about most of chapter 80?  Also, when
 * Most of Chapter 81, and probably the remaining 2 chapters of the manga.
 * Just the scene with Tamaki at
 * Kasanoda getting accepted by his classmates as a nice guy.
 * Just the fact that.
 * Die for Our Ship: Eclair, in the anime.
 * In the manga, HunnyxMori fans wish Reiko a horrible demise, or just pretend she doesn't exist.
 * Ear Worm: The title theme, "Sakura Kiss".
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: Come on, who doesn't love Nekozawa?
 * Fan Nickname: "Haruhi Potter".
 * Fan-Preferred Couple: In spite of the Official Couple, there are still many Hikaru/Haruhi shippers.
 * There are almost as many people who ship Kyoya/Haruhi as there are HikaHaru shippers- if not more.
 * Or Kyouya/Tamaki shippers.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: That episode where a boy thought Haruhi was a cross-dresser. Then we meet her father.
 * The creator early on in the series said she couldn't see Haruhi getting together with Tamaki. Guess how it ends.
 * Maaya Sakamoto (Haruhi) and Kenichi Suzumura (Hikaru in the anime and Kaoru in the drama CD) recently (as of August 2011) got married. This way, the Hitachiin twins/Haruhi OT3 actually became real.
 * Ho Yay: Hikaru and Kaoru, Mori and Honey. Kyouya and Tamaki are not without subtext as well (being "mommy" and "daddy," and so on...)
 * There's also a more subtle one with Kyoya. When Tamaki calls the rest of the host club (other than Haruhi) the homosexual supporting cast, Kyoya is annoyed. However, he's only annoyed by the 'supporting' line, he doesn't seem to care that he was called a homosexual.
 * Also what the girls think they're seeing when Kasanoda, who joined the club as a customer, picks Haruhi to be his favorite.
 * Speaking of Kasanoda, there's definitely something between him and his servant Tetsuya, at least on Tetsuya's side.
 * Haruhi herself has more than enough Les Yay, particularly with anyone from the Zuka Club.
 * And then in chapter 73 of the manga, there's a whole slew of it between Kyoya and Kaoru, of all people, including Kyoya waking up to find Kaoru in his bed (fully dressed, on top of the covers, reading a book), Kaoru blushing as Kyoya changes clothes and Hunny asking if Hikaru is mad because "Kyo-chan stole your Kao-chan."
 * And episode 9 of the live drama has Kyouya and cross-dressing Honey dressed up as a couple and fawning over each other and almost kissing all episode while following Haruhi and Hikaru in disguise.
 * Launcher of a Thousand Ships: Haruhi is officially dating Tamaki but she is often shipped with... everyone else! Yes, even Renge.
 * Magnificent Bastard: Kyouya, Tamaki, the Twins, and the Zuka Club all have their moments.
 * Memetic Outfit: Haruhi's first appearance is a wee bit...unflattering.
 * Aaand, it has returned~! Haruhi goes back to her frumpy outfit in chapter 76 of the manga . Looking back at chapter 1 with the same outfit it's easier to see some Art Evolution, too.
 * OT3: Try OT7. It's like a fangirl's dream come true.
 * That being said, Haruhi paired up with the Twins is a fairly popular OT3 among fans of this series.
 * Periphery Demographic: There are a surprising amount of male fans. The fact that it pokes fun at a genre that males might find a little ridiculous is a key factor. And although the guys don't swoon over most of the Host Club members, Haruhi is so cute! Plus it's just plain funny.
 * The end of chapter 82.
 * Moral Dissonance:  to make her realize   and convince her it's good to apply some common sense every now and then. Of course, it's generally good advice, but it's rather nasty to  just to make a point.
 * The whole thing is just ridiculously victim-blaming, whatever excuses you throw at it. Likely a result of Values Dissonance as well.
 * Tear Jerker: Haruhi's dream about her lost mother.
 * The Woobie: Each of the main characters has had at least one Woobie moment, especially in the case of Tamaki.
 * Ugly Cute: Kasanoda.
 * Tear Jerker: Haruhi's dream about her lost mother.
 * The Woobie: Each of the main characters has had at least one Woobie moment, especially in the case of Tamaki.
 * Ugly Cute: Kasanoda.
