Haruhi Fujioka (藤岡 ハルヒ Fujioka Haruhi?) is main protagonist in the anime and manga property, Ouran High School Host Club, created by Bisco Hatori.
In the series, Haruhi Fujioka is a freshmen attending Ouran High School under a scholarship.
Shortly after arriving at Ouran, Haruhi accidentally broke a vase worth ¥8,000,000. In order to pay off the debt, she is forced to work for the Host Club. Her peers mistake her for a male, given her outward appearance, and have her work as a servant of the host club.
[edit] Character
By the end of chapter 1, the entire club realizes that Haruhi is female; however, due to her large debt, she must continue to work for the club. She introduced instant coffee to the club who in turn made a big fuss about peasant beverages and were left in awe.
In chapter 2, Haruhi accidentally lost her first kiss to a girl when Tamaki, who slipped on a banana peel the Hitachiin twins threw away while trying to prevent the kiss, knocked her into the girl. Her father, a great okama (transvestite) at an okama bar, was not too pleased with this. In the manga version, however, she kissed the girl when Tamaki grabbed the bottom of her shirt, causing her to fall forward. Her father later becomes distressed when he sees the image on a large screen the host club acquired in order to save Haruhi.
Haruhi allows the club members to involve her in their antics, but doesn't like it when people comment on how amazingly "feminine" she is. She involves herself and enjoys some of the games. She even became frightened of ghosts in episode 21 during their class's fright fest.
Haruhi has stated on more than one occasion that she is at Ouran in order to pursue her dream, and wants to see how far it can take her.[citation needed] She chose to go to Ouran as she could then get a scholarship to go to the law department in university.
