welcome

Hello Ouran fans! Welcome to the official site for Music Room 3's scanlations. We are a small community, you could say our group motto is 'by fans, for the fans'. We work on bringing you the latest chapter of Ouran High School Host Club in English from it's Japanese original. It's quite a process to translate, clean the pages, and make it look all pretty for a release, so thanks for bearing with us each month!
Chat with us and other Ouran fans at the #1 English Ouran fansite! --> ouran-koukou.org. You can find us in the forums from the fansite, krysyuy.net/forums.

frequently asked questions
Q. How can we contact you about questions/releases/problems/etc etc?
A. You can email us at musicroom3@gmail.com. There's also an Ouran fansite forum we all frequent where we actually all met one another, it's at krysyuy.net/forums. The names you see on this site are the ones we use there, so every once in a while you might see us around.
Q. When do the Ouran chapters come out? / When do you release them?
A. The chapters come out in the Japanese magazine LaLa around the 24th of each month. Depending on how much talking and sound effects there are, depends on how quickly we can work on it. Just take a look at our twitter feed on the main page to see what stage we're at. Usually what takes the longest is the cleaning and sometimes typesetting, so once you know the cleaning is done you can expect the chapter to be out soon. :)
Q. Does your twitter feed follow what you do in real time?
Q. Twitter is very helpful to us in keeping you guys updated on our progress as we work on each chapter. But, it doesn't exactly follow us to a T. Here's an example to understand what I mean, we may post something like 'working on cleaning' and then 10 hours later something may be posted 'halfway done cleaning'. It does not exactly mean it took us 10 hours to clean half (although in some cases it is true), but I just wanted to note that we do sleep, eat, and do other life things. So during those 10 hours, who knows what we could be doing. The point of the twitter is just so you guys can know what stage we're at at certain times. :) Just don't depend on it to predict when we'll be done.
Q. What is your process for scanlating the chapter?/What is scanlating?
Q. Scanlating basically means taking the Japanese chapter and turning it into the English one you see released from us. It starts out with a raw of the chapter, if you don't know what raw means, think 'raw meat'. It's the original/purest form before anyone does anything to it. Once we get our hands on the magazine LaLa from Japan we scan in the chapter and the translating starts. While that is getting done, the cleaners are at work editing the pages so that they look all nice and pretty (you should see how the originals look - they are very dusty and grainy hence why we 'clean' them). Once the translation is done, the proofreaders look over it to make sure it makes sense and is in proper English. Once that is done, and the cleaning, then the cleaned pages and translation is sent to the typesetters. And that's when the magic of teamwork begins! The typesetters put all the fancy text you see onto the cleaned pages using the proofread translation. It's a long (but fun) process. If you ever want to try doing this yourself just look up some tutorials and find some good friends. :)
Q. What is your secret to getting such high quality pages?
Q. Haha believe me it's no secret. But to go into detail would be troublesome when there are some awesome tutorials out there. :) Just search on google 'scanlation tutorial' and a bunch of them will pop up.
Q. Why don't you answer my email?!! I sent you like 10!!
A. SORRY SORRY!! It's my fault, I'm in charge of the email and sometimes I just forget...so yeah if you get a response like two weeks late that's my fault. "OTL ~ HK
Q. How many volumes are there for Ouran?
A. As of August 1st 2010, there are 16 volumes in Japanese, and 14 in English.
Q. I can't see/hear the music player.
A. You may need to install Quicktime Music Player in order to hear it. It's a free application that plays music and such, rest assured it causes no harm to have and is quite easy to install. Or, your browser could be the problem. As of 7/24 the only browser I have found to not work with the player is Google Chrome. And not only that, but apparently a lot of sidebars show up making the page come out all ugly D:. I suggest using Firefox, or Internet Explorer to view this site. But if you're unsure of what the music player should look like, it should appear like this http://i30.tinypic.com/20z1bq1.png at the bottom of this page. If it still isn't working for you, you can email us about it.
Q. What song is that on the site?
A. The songs change every so often (usually once a month) but above the music player I always put the name of the song. And every song that is put up is from the Ouran anime itself, so if you look for the name of it through one of the CDs you should be able to find it.
Q. Can I join your team?!!
A. Thanks for the offer, but right now I think we're satisfied with just us. Too many people means too many to depend on. But if we ever end up looking for someone for a position, we'll make sure to announce it.
Q. Thank you so much for all of your hard work!!
A. Haha, I know this isn't really a question, but I just wanted to let you all know that we really appreciate all the thanks you give us. :) It helps to motivate us each month. It's hard to thank each and every one of you, but just know that we are reading what you say even if we don't respond! So THANK YOU!

Thankyouthankyouthankyou SOOO much for this! I'm totally spazzing out even though I haven't read the chapter yet. (It's downloading right now!)

AHHHHHHHHH, I just read this chapter! I am spazzing 100000000x. It was so cute, funny, cliched, and a PERFECT way to end Ouran! ^^ I loved the entire chapter, and even though it's the end, it really doesn't feel like it's ended at all! Hope to see more great works from Hatori-san soon! ^^
Thank you for your hard work! I wish you all the best in your endeavors! :D
Great thanks to you, guys, for your work on whole manga!! You are bringing us so much fun and pleasure. It's a bit sad that the end is quite open, though. I expected more drama, in spite of the genre...^_^
a huge THANK YOU for all your hard work ><
it's been... three years (?) since i watched the anime and began reading the manga. and i loved every bit of it. and you guys made it possible :)
having it end is both a misfortune and a relief at the same time.
i'll definitely buy all the volumes once i earn $$$ to do so xD
ARIGATOU!!

DOUMO ARIGATOU!!!!!!! =D
thank you guys for everything... even when i was drowning with work and school you guys have been the place where i can act like a total fan girl... it is sad that things must end but we learn with and from it. thank you for all your work. i hope you realize you make everyone's day special by hosting ouran...
THANK YOU!!!
Thank you soo much for all the great scans which allowed me to feed my addiction to Ouran as soon as each chapter was released. Thanks to you guys I was able to keep up with this great series, and without your efforts, I wouldn't have been able to enjoy Ouran to the end. Now that sadly Ouran is over, I just have to start building up my collection of the english volumes ^^ Anyways, thank you Music Room 3 <3
Thank you thank you for your generosity! You guys went through all the hard work and effort of sharing the Ouran love. THANK YOU 1,000,000 times!! God bless! More power! Conquer!
Thanks, MR3 for all your hard work and quality scans. I'm so happy that you stuck with it! I hate to say that my purchase of manga depends a lot on whether or not I liked it in scans form, especially the ending. I can now purchase vol 15+ and not feel it was a waste of my $$. I would read this over and over again! (such beautiful moments between Haru and Tama at the airport, in the pond, on the balcony etc... TT_TT )
OTSUKARESAMA DESHITA!!! thankyou so much for doing this, you have my deep gratitude!! all the best xx most affectionately, dedicated-reader-of-your-scanlations
Thank you for all the great work on Ouran!
I LOVE OURAN <3 IT'S SO GOOD!! =D Thank you so much for sticking with this series, you lifesavers! Literally don't know where I'd be without Ouran HSHC! Arigatoouu gozaimasuu~ Butbutbut... I'm going to miss it! (;_;)
**SPOILERS AHOY!**
Can't believe this is the end!!!! It's totally unfair, it sounds like Fushigi Yuugi with the whole new storyline thing but then its not?! There should be a new series with the Host Club in America!! I want to see them all grown up! >.< Also I'd love to see the love stories of the other Host Club members (super kawaii~), especially the Twins and Mori-senpaaii~! He's the secret heart-throb!! What do you think?! (^.^)
Love to all Host Club fans! ^_^
Thank you!!!! ^^
It is so happy and sad to see a great series end so soon. Ouran had been with for years(?) and coming back month after month for a new release chapter had bee my habit since then. Thank you for your great work staffs! We appreciate everything that you have done to keep the Ouran spirit alive!
