50 free Ouran High School Host Club trivia questions with answers — trivia quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
Ouran High School Host Club starts with a simple accident: a scholarship student wanders through the wrong door at an academy for the ultra-rich and ends up working for a club of idle, beautiful boys who entertain their classmates. From there the series pokes fun at every romance cliche it can find while quietly building one of anime's warmest found families. This quiz covers the whole of OHSHC. The first questions stick to Haruhi, Tamaki and the rest of the hosts and the moments every viewer remembers. Later ones reach for supporting characters, rival clubs and schools, standout episodes, where the manga goes after the anime stops, and the people who made the show in Japanese and in English. It is written for fans at every level, from someone who has just finished the anime to readers who followed the manga to its final chapter. Every answer comes with a short explanation, so a miss still teaches you something about Ouran Academy.
