Video Description PLEASE READ! IMPORTANT! :) Since YouTube's conversion severely messed up the quality and makes it hard to see anything at all, let alone the text, please use the high quality trick by clicking this link here: [link] You'll be able to see it much better! Basically what you do is type "&fmt=6" (without the quotes) at the end of the YouTube address above and it plays the video back at a higher bitrate, making it higher quality (if it doesn't work try "&fmt=18" but it generally doesn't play back as smooth). :) If you DO use &fmt=6 or &fmt=18 please make sure to let the video load all the way or the video might not play too well (skipping, etc.) You'll know you did it right if you see "Watch this video in lower quality for faster playback" underneath the video. If that's still not good enough, you can download an extra high quality version here: [link] Please do not repost it on YouTube. I'd really appreciate it a lot if no one does that! ^^ At that link you'll also find a very detailed description describing the two month creation of Ouran High School Never Ends, information about the video itself, as well as some fun facts while it was in the making. ^_^ If you haven't seen Ouran High School Host Club, you can watch this AMV with no worries whatsoever.

Thank you so much to the judges for allowing my videos to be in the contests and also to all the people who voted for me! I appreciate it more than you know! I made this AMV to show exactly what things are like in real-life and how the song reflects the series of Ouran High School Host Club. It was just too funny to resist. I did however have to re-watch the series over two times before starting, to find ways to make some scenes work. The anime shows the clichés of a "typical" high school. In high school, there are always these types of people: The beautiful, popular girl (Prom Queen/Reese Witherspoon), the smart, top-of-the-class student who is in charge of after school activities (Chess Team Captain/Bill Gates), the jokester (Clown/Jack Black), and the popular, handsome football player (Quarterback/Brad Pitt). In the song, other names such as Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise are brought up. Each of the people mentioned in the song are like an Ouran High School Host Club character. When thinking about which character to pick for each celebrity name, I took careful consideration of the character's personalities and role in the anime, not just their physical appearance. Ouran High School Host Club also shows a lot of "typical" student reactions to certain situations such as weight, popularity, and peer pressure and how even the popular ones get tired of all that. I knew that the anime would work well with the song even if I had to manipulate scenes to MAKE things work (PHEW! Lots of work!)
