The Grade School Host is the Naughty Type! is the sixth episode of the anime series. Shiro Takaoji, a fifth-grade Ouran Academy elementary school brat, seeks to learn how to make women happy from the Ouran Host Club King, Tamaki Suoh. With Renge Houshakuji at the helm, Tamaki and the rest of The Host Club seek to teach Shiro on the ways of a Host and, in the process, discover that what he really wants is to learn is to make just one girl happy - Hina Kamishiro.

Episode Summary

The episode begins with an Ouran elementary school student named Shiro being approached by a teacher who tells him he should get to the Classical Music Club meeting. The student declares that he's leaving the club, much to the teacher's dismay. When the teacher reminds him that playing the piano will make him popular with the ladies, the student declares, "I don't have that much time."

Shiro charms the charmer.

Scene skip to the boy searching looking for Music Room #3. There, he finds the Host Club cosplaying the Arabian Nights. They welcome the boy as though he's a guest until the twins point out that it's just a kid and just a boy.  Shiro asks Tamaki if he's the King to which Tamaki replies in the affirmative with grand gesture. Shiro then demands that Tamaki take him on as an apprentice so he can learn how to make women happy; after all, he's a genius at it. 

As Host Club's regular business begins, Tamaki is seen entertaining a guest with his "Princely" act. When the guest inquires about Shiro's presence, Tamaki tells her that he's the new apprentice and though only in elementary school, he likes the "fire" in his eyes. As Tamaki goes on to compliment the girl by calling her a mermaid, the girl asks if he really believes that. Shiro interrupts to say that she looks more like the carp that swim in his pond at home and that he doesn't believe in giving false compliments like Tamaki, revealing a brutally honesty. The guest is offended and Tamaki tries to do damage control, without success. After three succeedingly worse insults, the guest runs off calling Tamaki an idiot. 

Tamaki is annoyed with Shiro and more so, when the twins sarcastically state that Tamaki has gotten himself an adorable little apprentice. Kaoru Hitachiin asks Hikaru Hitachiin if he wishes he had a little brother like Shiro and they go into their brotherly love act to the delight of their guests. Shiro is shocked by their incestuous and homosexual innuendo. When Mitsukuni "Honey" Haninozuka hugs "Shiro-chan" and inquires if he wants to share cake with him, Shiro asks why he's wearing a high school uniform when it's clear he's much too young for high school at which point Takashi "Mori" Morinozuka appears, asking Honey what's wrong. Shiro is terrified of Mori and irritated that a "little kid" has such a "cool older friend." As Shiro backs away, he bumps into Haruhi Fujioka, who tries to make him feel better about the ongoing craziness. Shiro asks Haruhi if "he" is a cross-dresser, suspecting her true gender. Tamaki, Hikaru and Kaoru attempt to make Haruhi seem manly in order to throw Shiro off. They also attempt to distract Shiro by telling Haruhi to allow the boy to serve tea as part of his training. Haruhi gives the heavily laden tray to Shiro, who promptly drops it, saying it's not his job.Kyoya Ootori states that ¥100,000 is now added to Haruhi's debt to cover the damages.

Shiro is confined.

Shiro avers that it's the cross-dresser's job to do the chores; he's only there to learn how to make women happy. Tamaki responds that he won't get anywhere with such an attitude and that Haruhi's not to be disrepected. Shiro is isolated in a cage that drops from the ceiling and Tamaki  nonchalantly says Shiro will remain imprisoned until he's learned his lesson and is serious about learning how to make women happy. Shiro replies that he is serious, totally serious. He also mentions that he's going to run out of time. He flatters Tamaki by saying that Tamaki is a genius at making girls happy and he wants to learn from the best. Tamaki relents because he feels that he and Shiro are alike in their devotion to hosthood, to which Haruhi consoles, "You poor kid."

Tamaki begins lessons by telling Shiro that he must use the "material" he already possesses. When Shiro asks what that means, Kyoya steps in to explain the various "types" of hosts that already exist in the club: Tamaki as "the princely type," Mori as "the strong, silent or stoic type," Honey as "the boy-lolita type," the twins as "the little-devil type," Kyoya as "the cool type," and Haruhi as "the natural type." The twins suggest the boy-lolita type based on Shiro's age, at which point Honey bursts into tears, fearing that he's being replaced.

Renge rises on her rig.

The sound of Renge's platform is heard and she appears in the center of the room. She educates the group on shota anime/manga and its fanbase, declaring that Shiro is not a boy-lolita (or loli-boy) but "the naughty-boy type." The cage lifts and Renge gets to work. Acting as a coach, complete with whistle, she preps Shiro telling him he needs shorts (check), bumps and bruises (cosmetically added by the twins), to act recklessly (run and trip) and to have a signature catch phrase when injured ("No big deal. It was nothin'.") Shiro declares them all idiots. Nothing they do will help him make her happy, before running off. Haruhi says she thinks Shiro is upset about a specific girl.

Scene skip to Tamaki and the others infiltrating the elementary school, forcing Honey and Haruhi to wear elementary and middle school costumes, respectively, just to see Haruhi in a short skirt. They spy a photograph of Shiro playing the piano in which he looks happy. They then find him in a music room listening to a female classmate play the piano. As another girl exits the room, Tamaki hands her a rose complimenting her sweet beauty and inquiring about the girl playing the piano. The girl playing the piano is Hina Kamishiro and she and her family are leaving for Germany in a week. Shiro emerges and chastises the Hosts for being there, but Tamaki simply throws the boy over his shoulder, tells him to stop thrashing and back they go to Music Room #3.

Scene skip to Tamaki chiding Shiro for telling them he wanted to make all women happy when it was truly only one girl he wanted to please - Hina. Ironically, Tamaki tells Shiro that when you care about someone, you must tell them how you feel. Shiro regrets that he won't be able to hear Hina play again before she leaves, at which point Tamaki unveils a heretofore invisible piano. He informs Shiro that he will work with him steadily for the next week to enable Shiro to play his part in a four-hand piano piece with Hina, who they invite to visit Music Room #3 for a command performance. Two grand pianos are in place and Shiro says, "Let's play together, Hina." And so, they do. Haruhi remarks that Shiro, like Tamaki, loves with all his heart.

"Stealing your clients is so-o easy

Ten days later, Shiro is entertaining Tamaki's former guests at Host Club. Haruhi learns that he's been exchanging emails with Hina on a regular basis, but Shiro admits that although he likes the girl, she's too possessive. As Tamaki explodes, Shiro rubs in that he thinks "there's a new host king in town."
