Koala Discusses Two Decades Worth of Notable J-doramas

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 5, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 5, 2012

Some of my all-time fave dramas are Japanese doramas. I’ve been watching J-doramas since the early 90s, when I was a wee lass (okay, not so wee, but definitely still a lass), and following this bandwagon has been a bumpy ride. When its good, the ride was exhilarating. When its been blergh, it feels like an interminable period of uninteresting … Continue reading →

The Cast of Ouran High School Host Club Promote the Movie

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 28, 2012 by ockoalaMarch 26, 2012

The drama adaptation of Ouran High School Host Club is still one of my most unexpected and inexplicably satisfying dramas ever. The drama concluded without any final resolution, but the cast had already been signed up to do the movie version, which will hopefully wrap up where the manga ended. I say this only because I like things ending when it’s … Continue reading →

A Koala Reminisces: 2011 Year End Drama Reviews

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 17, 2011 by ockoalaDecember 20, 2011

Going into this year end review, I wasn’t nearly as enthusiastic as I was last year. I can’t pinpoint why, other than perhaps I simply wrote so much I wore myself out. All my drama writing in the 365 days since the 2010 year end review did make my fingers consider going on strike. My brain wasn’t that far behind … Continue reading →

Movie Version of Ouran High School Host Club Releases First Teaser Trailer

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 14, 2011 by ockoalaNovember 14, 2011

Wow, this movie must’ve been filmed in 10 days or something, because it felt like the cast of Ouran High School Host Club just wrapped it’s drama and started filming the movie, and already we have a first teaser trailer dropped. The movie is coming out in March of 2012, and looks to continue the wacky and good-hearted Ouran hijinks … Continue reading →

Take that, Canon: A Kyoya and Haruhi MV for the Ouran Fan

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 6, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 6, 2011

How many times have I watched this video? Thank to the awesomer than awesome EternallyxShade, too many times to count, and I’m not even done yet. This just might be the single best Ouran High School Host Club live-action drama MV I’ve watched. Clearly I’m not over my KyoHaru fixation, but from the popularity of this video and the comments … Continue reading →

Ouran High School Host Club Episode 11 Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 2, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 17, 2014

I can’t believe we’re at the final episode of the live-action drama adaptation of Ouran High School Host Club. It definitely just flew right by, leaving me with a feeling like it was both lightweight and memorable. Because a movie version is coming up, this final episode isn’t really any closure, but more like the end of a segment while … Continue reading →

Ouran High School Host Club Episode 10 Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 26, 2011 by ockoalaSeptember 26, 2011

For the penultimate episode of the live-action adaptation of Ouran High School Host Club, the drama goes full speed ahead in more character backstory revelations, bundling into a wee 23 minutes snippets on Mori and Honey, Tamaki, and even touching upon Kyoya. This was a cute episode that was really more for forward story momentum than about character interaction. Black Honey … Continue reading →

Ouran High School Host Club Episode 9 Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 19, 2011 by ockoalaSeptember 19, 2011

This was an odd episode of Ouran High School Host Club. Not sure if it was just me, but the episode fell rather flat, without the zany energy to sustain it, plus all the emotional touches felt forced rather than a natural progression of the characters development and storyline up until now. We’re nearing the end of the drama run, with … Continue reading →

Ouran High School Host Club Episode 8 Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 12, 2011 by ockoalaSeptember 12, 2011

There is something so unexpectedly sweet about Ouran High School Host Club. For a story predicated on the absurd and littered with the silly, what ties it all together is really a very genuine undercurrent of affection. It’s like the host club is just a group of rich but lonely and complicated boys who have found a positive outlet together … Continue reading →

Ouran High School Host Club Episode 7 Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 5, 2011 by ockoalaNovember 15, 2011

I think I finally understand the Tamaki/Haruhi hook. Every couple needs a hook for the most part, except when the onscreen chemistry threatens to combust and then no one cares why two characters make sense to be together. Since alterna-shipping in Ouran High School Host Club is futile (it’s like thinking Bella should be with Jacob or Hermione should be … Continue reading →

Ouran High School Host Club Episode 6 Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 2, 2011 by ockoalaSeptember 2, 2011

So here’s the dealio on Ouran High School Host Club – I’m so massively second lead shipping that I’m almost zoning out on everything else, which is not good since I’m supposed to be recapping rather than spazzing. I’ll try to stay focused, but smack me if you guys think I’m flailing too much. Like all good ensemble dramas, this … Continue reading →

Proudly Flying my KyoHaru Flag in Ouran High School Host Club

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 30, 2011 by ockoalaAugust 30, 2011

How is this not the OTP? Practical and down-to-earth butt poor girl meets calculating and acerbic nerdy billionaire heir. Yes yes, I know Kyoya in the manga/anime of Ouran High School Host Club isn’t even guy2, but the drama is definitely setting him up to be guy2, so that’s my canon and I’m sticking with it. The problem isn’t even … Continue reading →

The Cast of Ouran High School Host Club Announce Upcoming Movie Version

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 30, 2011 by ockoalaAugust 30, 2011

Do you want an even larger scale version of Ouran High School Host Club, a story that has already evolved from manga to anime and now to live-action drama. I want! And my wants appear to be immediately fulfilled, because the cast of Ouran attended a fan meeting in Tokyo last week and announced that they will be starring in … Continue reading →
