Poor Hikaru. I kinda hoped for Haruhi and Hikaru te get together, but I guess I'm okay with this too. Wow, the manga's really turning upside down. First, it was all random side-story shit revolving about a bunch of irrelevant supporting characters to the point of being annoying, and them all of a sudden there's a ton of character ddevelopment! Like Hikaru and Kaoru fighting and Kaoru confessing and Hikaru realise his feelings and Tamaki hearing about his mom and now this... I'm likinh OHSHC more and more! ^^
Honestly, I agree with this.
Not gonna lie, the first half of the series kind of dragged because of all the side plots and it just got too much. The character developments were kind of scattered and at times I felt myself bored of Ouran. I think volume 10 was really the turning point regarding the main characters and story. I’m so glad this series is finally picking up and going in the direction we all wanted (for the most part) lol
