Ouran High School Host Club Chapter 83

At last! Here is the final chapter of "Ouran High School Host club." I'd like to thank everyone for hanging in there with me for the last 12-chapters of this series. I've come along way as a translator and an image editor since I reluctantly started this series last year.

Links to "Ouran High School Host Club" Chapter 83 (Zip)(PDF) -- RETIRED

Notes:

• The zip file, also includes the wallpaper.  
• The zip file has higher image quality than the PDF
• Page 3 - Merchandise ads
• Page 4 - Favorite Quotes
• Page 5 - Results of the drawing contest
• Page 56 and 57 -- previews for the Ouran "memorial" in Lala Special

If you enjoyed Ouran and want to reread it, I encourage you to purchase the manga in Japanese or in English.  In the US, volume 1 - 14 are available from Viz.  Here's a convenient link to my Amazon store where you can purchase all the available volumes of Ouran from Viz (currently, there's a 4 manga books for the price of 3 deal going).  At least buy a volume or two to let Viz know you like Ouran and that you want them to continue providing us with similar manga series.  Plus, if you buy from my Amazon store, I'll receive a tiny referral payment.  As for the Japanese version, I recommend purchasing from YesAsia or Amazon Japan.  I think buying the Japanese version will more directly help the mangaka.  Akadot also has volumes of the series available, but their pricing is way too high for me to recommend them for this particular series.

And finally -- yes, I will translate any new content that appears in the upcoming Lala Special and if there is a following-on series or special Ouran stories in any of the Lala affiliated magazines, I will translate those as well.  Also, I will be purchasing volume 18 in Japanese for the bonus content and if there is more comic material, I will translate it.  Also, as for retirement of the series, it will happen as scheduled at midnight October 31st.  All follow-on content will also be posted for only a month.

Next up! "Junketsu + Kareshi" Chapter 3 -- *fangurl squee*

Kimi ni XOXO on Hiatus

I don't see a listing for "Kimi ni XOXO" previews for Lala 12 and I haven't found any news about the continuation of the series.  So, it appears that this series is on hiatus or will be left undone.  I will update the status as soon as I learn anything new.

Ouran 83 Spoiler

All right everyone!  This should be all the spoiler you need :)

It will most likely be ready in less than a week because I managed to get a nice clean scan. If you can't wait until then, I'm sure there will be a "fast" version to read earlier :). Regardless, I will be taking my time to give this last chapter a very polished look and to do my best with the translation.　　So, please have patience with me. I promise you will be very pleased with the ending :).
