Ep 12. Honey-senpai's Three Unsweet Days

Honey-senpai's Three Unsweet Days is the twelfth episode of the first season of the anime series Ouran High School Host Club. The episode revolves around Mitsukuni "Honey" Haninozuka, a senior member of the Host Club known for his childlike appearance and love of sweets.

Honey falls ill due to overeating sweets and is forced to take a break from school for three days, which he dubs his "unsweet days." The other members of the Host Club volunteer to take care of Honey during this time, and they come up with various activities to keep him entertained.

Kyoya Ootori, the vice-president of the club, assigns tasks to each member, with Haruhi Fujioka tasked with looking after Honey during the nights. Haruhi is initially hesitant to take care of Honey, but she soon realizes how sweet and caring he is as a person.

Meanwhile, the other members of the Host Club try to distract Honey from his love of sweets by engaging him in various activities, such as martial arts and puppet shows. However, all of their attempts fail, and Honey becomes more and more depressed as he continues to crave sweets.

As the days go on, Haruhi grows closer to Honey and learns more about his past. She discovers that Honey has a brother, Yasuchika, who is jealous of his popularity in school and often tries to compete with him. Honey also reveals that he has a medical condition that stunted his growth, causing him to appear much younger than he actually is.

Despite their efforts, the Host Club is unable to cure Honey's sweet tooth, and they decide to throw him a surprise party on the fourth day to lift his spirits. The members of the club prepare various sweets for Honey, and he is overjoyed to be able to indulge in his favorite treats once again.

The episode ends with the Host Club members reflecting on their time spent with Honey during his "unsweet days" and appreciating him even more for his kind and gentle nature.

Overall, Honey-senpai's Three Unsweet Days is a heartwarming and amusing episode that showcases the deep bonds between the members of the Host Club. It also provides more insight into Honey's character and backstory, making him an even more endearing and compelling character.
