Kaoru is one of the Host club members in the Ouran High School Host Club series and is introduced along with his twin brother, Hikaru, and the rest of the Host Club when Haruhi Fujioka stumbles upon said club in Music Room #3. Kaoru is in class 1A along with his brother and Hikaru, making him (and Hikaru) major rivals for Haruhi's time. The customers at the Host Club that request Hikaru and Kaoru appear to like the "brotherly love" that they pretend to have. Also a common game to be played at the Host Club is the "Which one is Hikaru?" game.

Kaoru's usual outfit is a periwinkle blazer, white shirt, black pants, and a black tie with a purple stripe (the typical Ouran uniform). He has short, auburn, and somewhat messy hair (in the anime it's red/orange and quite spiky). He has dyed it blue before (and pink the next to confuse the Host Club customers). Kaoru parts on his right, so it looks parted to the left side of the person facing him (Hikaru's is the opposite), and although they mention that they switch parts every day, the parting is consistent unless they are purposely trying to confuse people (which has definitely happened before). He has topaz eyes, making him look somewhat like a devil, which is fitting since he is the "little devil" host type, together with Hikaru. His face is thin and he has pale skin.

Hikaru and Kaoru were born as twins and spent all of their time together, only recently learning to open up and become friends with other people. Their mother is a wealthy fashion designer, and both of them seem to take after her in appearance; they have grown up to be much like her in personality and fashion skills as well. Their father on the other hand manages a computer software company and doesn't seem to resemble them at all. Mr. Hitachiin is referred to as a "ghost" because he is often not noticed. As a child Kaoru grew up never being apart from his brother and they both became very codependent on each other.

All through grade school he and his brother refused to accept anyone into their "world" if they couldn't tell the two twins apart as it upset them that no one could honestly do so. They kept to themselves until Tamaki asked them to help him create the Host Club, and though at first they refused, they eventually joined after Tamaki tried relentlessly to tell the two apart (and eventually succeeded). Kaoru is now friends with everyone in the club, and is very protective of them. He can control his emotions rather well, able to stay back if necessary and control his temper, being more reasonable than his brother when they get upset over something.
