The Zuka Club members
The White Lily League is an organization at Saint Lobelia Girls' Academy which offers social activities similar to those of the Ouran Host Club at Ouran Academy (without the cosplay and auctions). The Zuka Club is a subdivision within the League that performs plays and musicales for the student body. The President of both organizations is Benio "Benibara" Amakusa whose zealous followers call themselves the Lady Benibara fan club with the other officers are Chizuru "Suzuran" Maihara and Hinako "Hinagiku" Tsuwabuki.
Club Activities
The White Lily League's activities include a "Girls' Tea Party" where discussions are held about what it means to be a girl and to develop pride of gender (aka the Maiden Debate forum). All members are expected to attend the Zuka Club's performances where top members perform in musical revues.

Etymology
- The Zuka Club's name stems from Japan's famous Takarazuka, an all-female musical theater troupe.
- The term "White Lily League" is a direct play upon the word "yuri," which means "lily" in Japanese and it is the term used to designate Girls' Love media.
Trivia
- Hikaru Hitachiin and Kaoru Hitachiin thought that the Zuka Club's name was amusing to the point that they laughed so hard they found it hard to breathe.
- Hinako and Chizuru can both be seen showing affection for Benio in some scenes.
- It's unknown if this is just an act or if they have legitimate romantic feelings toward her.
- Benio may have a crush on Haruhi Fujioka as demonstrated through her eagerness to both kiss her and to act like a "gentleman" towards her.
- It's unknown if this is just to rile the Ouran Host Club because she suspects they also have a crush on her or because she makes clear that she intends Haruhi to transfer to St. Lobelia's.
- The Zuka Club officers admit that they approve of same-gender relationships and hate men.
- The club has been in existence for 31 years.
- The club mirrors Ouran's Host Club in its sex appeal, ridiculousness and fascination with Haruhi.
- The club once references Adolph Hitler's regime by wearing Nazi-like uniforms alongside a Nazi-like flag. They chant "Hail the Zuka Club" while doing the Fascist salute which is a reference to the infamous and controversial Nazi cry "Heil Hitler!" This unsurprisingly sparked some industry and fan-based controversy.
