A Koala's Playground

I'll talk about dramas if I want to

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 →

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 →

First Impressions of Nankyoku Tairiku with Kimura Takuya

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 18, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 19, 2011

TBS has spared no expense for it’s 60th Anniversary production Nankyoku Tairiku (Antarctica), a dorama that from the first frame tells you this is going to be a eyeball enriching period piece. I watched episode 1 yesterday, leaving me at times bemused, at times awed, and most of the time emotionally engaged. Which is to say: this dorama is geared 110% … Continue reading →

A Look at the Leading Actors of Japanese Entertainment

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 2, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 3, 2011

A couple of months ago I did a write up on TW-actors and TW-actresses, which was relatively easy to do since there just aren’t that many of them occupying the perch as certifiable leads. The same isn’t true elsewhere, which is why I’ve been hesitant to attempt it for other industries. Nevertheless, I suddenly got the urge to run down … 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 →

First Impressions: Ouran High School Host Club

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 31, 2011 by ockoalaSeptember 28, 2011

J-doramas have officially gone off the cross-dressing end this Summer, with not one, not two, but THREE girl-crossing-dressing-with-a-bunch-of-guys dramas out at the exact same time. And two are remakes to boot. Where’s the originality Japan? I checked out all three purely out of curiosity, discovering that while two made me run away screaming, one was an insane and infectiously adorable … Continue reading →
