Main characters

Tamaki Suou10140 fan favorites

Age: 17 Birthday: April 8 (Aries) Height: 183 cm (6'0") Blood Type: A Host type: "Prince" Nationality: half-French, half-Japanese Favorite Subjects: English, French, History Favorite Foods: common folk ramen (esp. pork flavor) and snacks (esp. baby star) Rose color: white Tamaki Suou is the founder and president of the Ouran High School Host Club. He is the antithesis to his best friend, Kyoya Ootori. While Kyoya is calm, cool, and calculating, Tamaki is flamboyant, emotional, and narcissistic; however, he is extremely dedicated to his duties as a host. He is the "prince" host type, who can charm any girl with sweet talk—yet he is always truthful in his compliments. To him, all girls are pretty, and the happiness of his guest is his greatest enjoyment. Tamaki acts as the main comic relief in the series, exemplified in his extremely dense and naïve approach to his own feelings, and extreme emotional reactions to Haruhi's comments about his stupidity. He has a family complex, as he asks Haruhi to call him "Daddy" and refers to Kyoya as "Mommy." He is shown to be partial to classical piano music and plays extremely well; one of his favorite pieces being Mozart's Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Birthday: February 4 Age: 16 Zodiac sign: Aquarius Height: 155 cm (5'1") Blood type: O Favorite subjects: Classic Japanese, English, World History, Host club learning time Favorite foods: Ootoro (fancy tuna), seafood, strawberries, candy apples, high class food Host type: "Natural" Mid-term Exam Ranking: 1st year, 1st place Sentai color: Red Ranking in dai hin min: 6th Rose color: Red Haruhi Fujioka, the main heroine of the story, is an intelligent freshman attending the prestigious and expensive Ouran High School. She cut her hair short because of a little boy who got gum stuck in it, but this action caused the Host club to mistake her for guy. However, unlike the other students, she is from a commoner family and got into Ouran through a scholarship. On her first day at school, she accidentally breaks a vase worth 8 million yen belonging to the Host Club. As a result, she is forced to work as a host to pay off her debt, and does so by disguising herself as a boy. Soon enough, she naturally takes to acting as a host to other girls, and even finds it enjoyable. However, she does not like to take time away from studying and often finds the antics of the other hosts to be annoying. Haruhi lives with her okama (cross dressing) father. As a result of her mother passing away when she was young, Haruhi has become very independent and never lets anyone worry about her. Although seemingly unflappable, she has a fear of thunderstorms.

Name: Hikaru Hitachiin Birthday: June 9 (elder brother) Age: 16 Sign: Gemini Height: 175 cm (5'9") Blood Type: B Grade: First Year, Class A Status: Wealthy Lineage Host Type: "Little Devil" Favorite Subjects: Math, Physics, Chemistry Favorite Foods: Italian, anything super spicy, maple syrup Rose Color: blue Hikaru Hitachiin is a devious and childish first-year student who greatly enjoys toying with his fellow Host Club members Haruhi and Tamaki (whom he often calls, "My Lord"). He and his younger identical twin, Kaoru, are "little devil" type hosts who put on an act of "forbidden brotherly love" (with Hikaru as the seme) to draw in their clients. Unlike Tamaki, the Hitachiin brothers are wholly calculating in their customer relations; however, this is because of their deep dependency of each other, and a reluctance to let anyone into their world. They share a deep emotional bond, which was forged through a lonely childhood and the painful fact that no one could ever tell them apart without looking at the parting of their hair (Hikaru's hair parts to the right; Kaoru's parts to the left). Since Haruhi is the first person that can truthfully tell them apart, they greatly treasure her friendship. Haruhi has stated that Hikaru and Kaoru have their differences, despite being identical twins. Of the two, Hikaru is a little more in-control of their twincest acts, but is also more childish and immature than Kaoru, though he is the older twin. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Age: 17 Birthday: November 22 Height: 180 cm (5' 11") Blood Type: AB Host Type: "Cool" Zodiac Sign: Sagittarius Favorite Subjects: English, German, Physics Favorite Foods: Anything spicy, nothing sweet Rose Color: violet Kyouya Ootori, a second-year student at Ouran Gakuen, is the sly and calculating vice-president of the Host Club founded by his best friend and polar opposite, Tamaki Suoh. Despite Tamaki being president, Kyouya truly runs the club and plays the role of a puppet-master behind the scenes, earning him the nickname "Shadow King." He takes care of the Host Club's expenses and will even sell items belonging to the host club members (such as Haruhi's pencil) for profit. In his words, "use whatever is at hand, be it friend or foe." Almost everything he does is for his own benefit, but he can occasionally display a selfless side. He is the third son of his very wealthy and influential family; thus, if he wants to take over his family's business, he must work extremely hard to meet his strict father's high expectations. Also, Kyouya's bad temper when waking up in the morning has earned him the name "Low-Blood Pressure Evil Lord." [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Nickname: Honey Birthday: February 29 Age: 17 Sign: Pisces Height: 145 cm (4'9") Blood Type: AB School: Ouran High School Grade: Third Year, Class A Status: Wealthy Lineage Host type: "Loli Shota" Nationality: Japanese Favorite Subject: Math Favorite Foods: Cakes, strawberries, unexpected cravings for spicy foods (dislikes carrots, ironically) Rose Color: Pink Mitsukuni Haninozuka (a.k.a. Honey-senpai) is a cake-loving, childish senior with an elementary school appearance. He attracts customers with his "shotacon" cuteness—however, he is also extremely talented at fighting. He can send people flying with one kick, and has been told by the Japanese Defense Minister to never show his full power for fear of other countries thinking Japan had a weapon of mass destruction. He learned his skills from his father, the owner of a famous dojo. Because of him, Honey tried to act like a "real man" for some time, but after Tamaki convinced him that liking cute things was not bad, Honey dropped his façade and joined the host club along with Mori, his cousin and the person he is often seen around with. Honey carries a stuffed bunny named "Bun-bun" (in Japanese, it is called "Usa-chan," an abbreviation of usagi, meaning rabbit) that his beloved grandmother made for him. Like Kyouya, Honey is very ill-tempered when he wakes up, and gets very violent towards those that disturb his sleep. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Nickname: Mori Birthday: May 5 Age: 18 Known relatives: Mitsukuni Haninozuka (cousin), Satoshi Morinozuka (younger brother) Sign: Taurus Height: 192 cm (6'4") Blood Type: O School: Ouran High School Grade: Third Year, Class A Status: Wealthy Lineage Host type: "Strong but silent" Nationality: Japanese Favorite Subjects: Geography, Japanese History Favorite Foods: Oriental (like fermented natto soybeans) Rose Color: dark blue Takashi Morinozuka (a.k.a. Mori-sempai) is a tall, stoic, but kind upperclassman who is Honey-senpai's constant companion. The Morinozuka family had protected and served the Haninozuka family for many generations but marriage joined the families two generations ago, breaking the master-servant tradition. Despite that, Mori still faithfully protects Honey and attends to his wishes. His protectiveness extends to his classmates and fellow host club members, gaining him a certain level of respect. He does not talk very much and is considered the "wild" ("strong and silent" in the dub) type. However, when he is tired, he becomes uncharacteristically talkative and flirtatious. Mori's hobbies include kendo and karate. He's the only member of the Host Club to call Honey-senpai by his first name. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
