Clube de Anfitriões do Colégio Ouran (2011)

Ouran High School Host Club is a very fun drama!
Based on the manga and anime series, the drama is actually faithful to some of the events from the anime. So if you have watched the anime and enjoyed it, you are sure to enjoy the live action drama interpretation as well!
The acting and 'special effects' on the screen were a bit over the top, but as it suited the characters and the anime origins of the show it actually fit the drama well and were enjoyable. The actors played their roles well and were pleasant to watch.
Overall I would recommend this drama to those who have watched the anime, liked other dramas such as Hana Kimi, or just want to watch a fun, slightly exaggerated, drama. Just come into it with an open mind!

I admit, when I heard of the news that my favourite manga/anime was going to be turned into a live-action, I wasn't exactly thrilled. Look what happened to Paradise Kiss! Sure it was fluffy, but the content and depth of the story was gone. But well Ouran isn't exactly full of depth and content, but certain elements are still important, for instance Tamaki's concept of "family" and the deep "family" feelings that the hosts possess. And when the news was out, I was thinking "No one can play the role of hunny-senpai, no one will be as lovely as Tamaki, no one can portray the twins' devious-ness..." Yamamoto Yusuke didn't look the part of Tamaki (but played it well), the choice for hunny-senpai and mori totally crushed me; mori is supposed to be tall, dark and handsome, while hunny-senpai is supposed to be totally adorable ;_;

But... this drama turned out surprisingly nice! I must say, I WORSHIP DAITO SHUNSUKE. Is there even a better choice for someone else to play the role of Kyoya in this drama?!?!?!?! Daito was so... cool. suave. so dreamy x___x (especially in the bed scene KYAAAA) The twins had the look of devious-ness, while haruhi (played by kawaguchi haruna) was alright (much better than maeda atsuko in hana kimi remake). At least her cross-dressing didn't make me want to kill her and rip off her wig -_-

Whoops have I fangirled too much? I apologise. But isn't the point of Ouran fangirling? Yes it is. WELL ALRIGHT this concludes the review! This live-action didn't make me cringe, it didn't make me yearn for SOME characters (ohhh hunny T_T), and it has succeeded in making me anticipate the movie!! NICHKHUN AS A PRINCE, ANYONE? :>

Ouran High School Host club never fails to make me happy! I remember it as being one of the first shoujo animes I watched so it holds a very nostalgic feeling for me. I was very excited to watch the drama, but also nervous because I didn't want to have it ruin the anime for me. I'll admit, the drama took some getting used to. The anime style is very literally transferred into the drama, so things were very often overdone and really cheesy. But this isn't meant to be a serious drama and it doesn't try to be something it's not. So as soon as I got used to the style I really enjoyed it!

Since I've watched the anime and read part of the manga, the plot wasn't at all surprising to me. But I did think that they did a nice job of choosing the right things to leave in a take out. While I would love a completely accurate anime-to-drama adaptation, it isn't realistic. They did a really good job of keeping in the most important plot points.

I wasn't familiar with any of the actors in this show so this was my first experience with them. I found that they all fit their roles very well! I especially enjoyed Kyouya! Tamaki was hilarious, of course, and the rest of the cast was great. I loved how Nekozawa got a bigger role as well. His ominous aura and random appearances were hilarious.

The music was kind of quirky. It seemed to be a lot j-rock, but it was catchy and fit the show well. I actually ended up enjoying it.

Overall, I'm really glad I watched this drama adaptation. It helped fill the hole that the nonexistent 2nd anime season left in my heart. I'll definitely be watching the movie soon!

I was anticipating this drama for a long time before it came out and was so excited when I was finally able to watch it but by the time I finished I was rather disappointed.
First of all the storyline followed the anime allot which I was unhappy about because of how abrupt the anime ending was and it seemed like the storyline skipped from one extreme to the next (including the anime). I was very satisfied, however, with how closely related the characters were to the Anime/Manga characters and setting wise.
The drama captured all the comedy perfectly and I laughed out loud more then a few times. Usually when a manga/anime is made into a drama they lose sight of what makes the series so special but this series has no problem with that what so ever.
Yamamoto Yusuke was the perfect Tamaki and I enjoyed his acting the most in the whole series. There is really a star cast and thats what makes this drama great. The actors were casted perfectly and all did great justice to the manga/anime characters. However, I feel that the main actress could have done a better Haruhi, her performance was lacking something that I didn't feel from the actual character.
I definitely recommend this drama to all Ouran High fans and non-fans alike.

Having never read the manga or watched the anime (I plan to watch it in the very near future!) I went into this show completely unaware of the story & characters, and I have to say: I loved every second of it!

I thought the cast had great chemistry & were totally believable. I can't compare them to the manga & anime portrayals but I enjoyed them all individually. I fell in love with Yusuke Yamamoto as Tamaki, and didn't find his OTTness to be bad in the least! I loved the balance between his wackiness and his moments of sincerity.

This show renewed my interest in 'girls dressed as boys' dramas by not directly focusing on the fact that Haruhi dressed as a boy the entire series - by that I mean it was central to the set up but not the main plot point. Such a welcomed change.

I can't wait to watch the film!

I kind a like this script

As for acting i really dont like chracter of suoh thamaki... i dont know how about his chracter in anime but in drama his way of acting and his look soo idiotic. I think becoz of his hair his look become like that.. i am not telling he is bad actor he is good when he acted siriosly but when that funny parts i feel really fedup. It is really too much.. If his acting become bit sirious i will be given 10 out of 10 to this drama.. others characters r cool i love all other members in host club.. haninozuka mitzukuni is really cute.. i fell for ootori kyoko at first but only when nekozawa umehito apear.. he come to scene before kyoko but i did not notice him after i notice him i fell for him 🤭 actually he is really cute too

Overall if u want u can try it.. it is not really best but i can say i did not get bored so u can try it too..

[WARNING: the rating and review I give have the possibility to be subjective due to my preference for the genres, scenes or casts]

I just have to pretend that I didn't see the male casts except Kyouya and Morinozuka (^_^;) I just focus on the story. So sorry, but I think the other casts not too fitted with the role. Sometimes it's too much. Well, I know this dorama adapted from manga, but the act still didn't seems right. But maybe that's just because of my taste. The twins act are quite entertaining even those make me feel a goosebumps (^o^;) My most favorite cosplay is when they wear a police uniform. Kyoya is so handsome (♡°▽°♡)

I was very skeptical before I watched this, having read the manga AND watched the anime. How can a live action drama be better than the manga? I was surprised to find that I actually liked some scenes in this drama much better than the originals.

I was a little wary about watching it at first, because I had read that the characters were overacted, something I can't stand. However, I disagree. I think the acting was quite appropriate for the drama; the characters are supposed to be a bit exaggerated.

I easily connected the characters from the manga/anime to the drama. Which brings me to casting. I had a problem with Tamaki. The acting was spot-on, and I loved Yamamoto Yusuke in Hana Kimi - his character was one of my favorites. However, I couldn't get past his face, which didn't match up with my vision of how Tamaki should look. I also originally had a problem with Honey-senpai, but I grew to like his character a lot. Daito Shunsuke was perfect as Kyouya, who was my favorite character in the drama. Mori and the twins were great too. The drama is very short, and each episode is always something fresh and somewhat independent. It's hilarious and adorable.

I would highly recommend this, especially to anyone who has read the manga or watched the anime.

STORY: The story was not the best, nothing super original, it was a live-action version of the anime and manga. There were many of the same shenanigans, but it was a very interesting live version. The creators of this show even managed to create similar effects. I will not lie, at first it was cringe-worthy and many fans of the anime say they do not like this show, but it grows on you. The actors are such a large part of this that it is hard to stop watching. I honestly loved this show and how they blended what has been seen before in other versions with new things they create to fuel the story. I expected it to be nothing but romance and be horrible but the humor, family, friends, and love were all so well balanced that I found myself binge-watching.

CAST: The cast fit their roles so well, it was incredible. Yamamoto Yusuke did an amazing job as Tamaki, I was so surprised by just how extra he could be. Daito Shunsuke caught me off guard as Kyoya as well, pulling off the cool and collected character perfectly, but leaving just enough to make you swoon. And the twins were perfect, devilish but adorable. I was happy with how their characters seemed more complex, not happy go lucky blank slates. I found the main cast gave a lot to their roles, to show growth and keep the interest of the viewer. Everyone worked very well together. Kawaguchi Haruna was wonderful of course.

MUSIC: The music and sound effects for this show were very good, however, "friday ma magic" did get slightly old as the theme song. While I absolutely love the song, I wish there had been maybe one more but there is a charm to a limited soundtrack at the same time.

REWATCH VALUE: This show has a very high rewatch value for me simply because it is hilarious, also every episode has a different story, and the cast is so good. Even is you do not think it will be as good as the anime I highly suggest trying at least one or two episodes. Especially since it does not have 20 or more episodes. There are only 11 (plus a movie but it's not NECESSARY to watch that.)

Quite Charming

This show is so utterly absurd and sweet, one can't help but love it. I LOL every episode. Tamaki's over the top expressions and Nekozawa's popping up all over the place was so funny! This show is so binge-worthy and watchable in one setting. After the first episode you want to know what happens next. Plus each ep is only 23 minutes and won't take up your whole day or night! That being said I found myself wishing each episode was longer and that we had more of the background stories for Honey, Mori, twins, Hikaru and Kaoru, and Kyoya. I really enjoyed the actress that plays Haruhi as well; she's is so cute!! I usually don't even like shows where I don't find the male lead attractive but Yusuke Yamamoto was so damn good as Tamaki I found myself falling for him after each episode!! Another plus is that the show follows the anime fairly close.

I thoroughly enjoyed this show!
