I remember that a long long time ago, when I was a kid, my cousin, who was a teenager at the time, showed me the first episode of an anime. It wasn't until fairly recently that I discovered that that anime was Ouran High School Host Club.

I didn't understand why she liked watching cartoons in Japanese with subtitles, but she said I would understand someday. Needless to say, she was right.

That being said, I still haven't watched it.

My current headcanon is that Jacques was born in poverty in Mantle, and had to work very hard to get where he is now. His hard work was noticed ny Nicholas, who served as a father figure for Jacques. I can't help but wonder how many people watched Ouran when they were preteens when the English dub came out. I mean... I know there are people my age who watched it a long time ago, and I expected it to be very, very innocent and child-friendly, so I was surprised that it does actually reference and mention mature things like BDSM, rape, and morning wood (that one was referenced with a visual metaphor). They even made a joke about gay terminology ("pitcher", as in top).

I can't help but think that we would have evidence of Jacques being a little more... nice and grateful when it comes to Nicholas' daughter, if that were the case. However, instead, we have evidence that the two loudly argue a lot and his wife may take to the drink more than she should.
