IRASSHAIMASE!

... and welcome to the M2K2 Ouran High School Host Club Club!
As members of the Host Club Club, we were all impressed by the new anime, OURAN KOUKOU HOSUTOBU or the Ouran High School Host Club.
Although the show really needs no introduction, I will provide the following summary for those who are interested in its basic premise:
Haruhi Fujioka finds herself a freshman at the posh Ouran High School in Japan. As a "commoner" lacking the funds normally required to attend Ouran, Haruhi only made it in by passing a special scholarship exam. One day, while wandering the campus looking for a quiet place to study, Haruhi stumbles into the unused Third Music Room, where the school's Host Club meets ...
A new episode of the show in DivX .avi format complete with professional-quality subtitles provided by Lunar Anime is made available every week via BitTorrent at the following URL:

If you're new to the show, stop here and watch every episode before going any further. There are, of course, large amounts of gratuitous spoilers beyond this point, and we would hate to see you spoiled!
If don't know how to use the .torrent files to download the show, check out this FAQ. Otherwise, one of the Club members will be happy to help you. Alternatively, you can send me a Private Message stating that you'd like the show up to the current episode on DVD, and I'll send it to you on DVD - free of charge!
Avatars
To see our special Host Club Club avatars, press Refresh or Reload in your browser! (Once you leave the Host Club Club topic, you may need to press Reload again to stop seeing our special avatars!) If you would like to change your special avatar, simply ask either here or via private message and I'll get on it as soon as I can. Note that the special avatars will only show up if you've clicked on this topic's title or first post - clicking on or viewing individual posts won't let them appear, unfortunately.
Discussion
Feel free to discuss anything vaguely related to the show, but remember to place new information - that is, things that have happened in the most recent episode - in spoiler tags. You can find out more about spoiler tags in the spoiler tags topic.
Screencaps
Go ahead and use the attachment function to post any screencaps from the show you find amusing/cute/strange, etc. - just make sure they're not from the most recent episode, since people could easily be spoiled that way.
Files
If you'd like to hear the full version of either the intro or the ending tune (or both!), your destination lies straight ahead:
Chieco Wakabe - Sakura Kiss.mp3 (8.6 MB)
Last Alliance - Shissou.mp3 (5.4 MB)
(I believe the translation of the ending tune's title is "Sprint" (Ingrid Bergman FTW), but don't quote me on that.)
Well, that's it for the introduction - jump right in and have fun!!
