This special chapter isn’t what I expected from the preview teaser, but it does fit in perfectly with our “Spooky One-shots” Fall theme.  This little ghost story is a nice transition from summer to fall, so all is forgiven, though, I really wanted TamaxHaru happy married love-love short.  Can you imagine how “stoopid” a pregnant Haruhi chapter could be?  You’d have craziness from Tamaki, Renka, and nutty Tamaki’s Dad to deal with on that.  Anyhow…on to the links:Links to the “Ouran High School Host Club” August Special Chapter:  (Zip) (PDF) Retired.

  This is the first of two planned Ouran short stories appearing in Lala magazine to commemorate the OHSHC live action drama.  This one-shot centers around Mei and Kasanoda who were revealed to an item in the extras from Volume 18.  It’s a cute one-shot.  Update 7/25/2011:  Update to the translation of Mei’s dialog on page 12.  It’s different enough to warrant re-download for archiving purposes, but the change doesn’t impact the story.

As for the preview of the next special chapter, it reads:  … Continue reading Ouran High School Host Club July 2011 Special Chapter

First of all, let me encourage you to buy this volume in Japanese, whether you can read it or not (you should have the translation already), in order to directly support Hatori-sensei.  Here are some links to online stores: Amazon Japan Yes Asia ($7.99 + $3.99 shipping!) And now onto the good stuff.  Like somebody else commented in the teaser post, these extras should give most everyone a satisfying end to the “Ouran High School Host Club” series.  I still want more Kyouya…but I’ll live, I suppose.  Also…I shouldn’t complain too much since I did get this (as written in … Continue reading Ouran High School Host Club Volume 18 Extras

Update:  Files updated to correct the spelling of various locations and people talked about this chapter.  Big thanks for zronoa for the information.—————————— First of all, I would like to thank the cleaners for helping me get this out so promptly.  You guys are wonderful and generous with your time and talent. Now, just a warning: this special chapter does not move the story forward.  There are no big revelations or character developments.  Rather it’s like an extra-long chapter of a normal Ouran story.  When I first saw that’s what this was, I was rather disappointed because like so many … Continue reading Ouran High School Host Club January 2011 Special Chapter

The Ouran Commemoration in Lala Special issue 12/2010 contains a lot of stuff.  I stuck to the stuff that was most interesting to me and took into consideration what might appear in Volume 18 when it’s finally released in English.  Five chapters were selected as key chapters to re-read.  They are chapters 4, 20, 36, 52, and 80.  These key chapters were reprinted and took up the bulk of the commemoration.  Interspersed between the chapter re-prints were interviews and Ouran trivia.  I imagine most of this stuff will appear when Volume 18 is finally released in English from Viz, plus, … Continue reading Ouran Special Short Story and Commemoration
