Episode 09 - The Challenge of the Roberia Girls' School
Japanese Title: Roberia Jyogakuin no Chousen
Based On: Volume 3/Chapter 10
Airdate: May 30, 2006
Summary: The Host Club is in trouble when the Zuka Club from the Roberia School drops by. The president, Benio, and her two companions, Chizuru and Hinako, claim that the Host Club is only using the members' superficial looks to spread false love and play with pure female hearts, indulging their greed in the name of "club activities". The fact that the Host Club included Haruhi - who Benio knows to be a girl - makes their acts only more unforgivable in the Zuka Club's eyes. Benio swears she will have the Host Club disbanded. She wants to transfer Haruhi to Roberia, where she will be welcomed into the Zuka Club.
When Haruhi tries to defend the Host Club against Benio's arguments, she finds they are all true. Tamaki is half-European and the club does have a shallow history since he started it when he entered high school. Then Haruhi also finds out that the Host Club gets money from a club auction site where their customers bid on members' personal items. She gets mad that the club took her belongings (i.e. her mechanical pencil, etc) without telling her.
Angry and a bit shocked by the revelations, Haruhi takes her leave of the club for the day. But Tamaki and the others fear she really will transfer to Roberia.
To what lengths is the Host Club willing to go to make sure their favorite cross-dressing girl stays at Ouran?
