Ouran Live Action Episode 7

DISCUSS.

I personally thought Haruhi and Tamaki at the supermarket was adorable.

The supermarket was ADORABLE! I wonder what he was repeating after he say Kyoya.
Ranka was a fierce bitch, though.
DAT VOICE.

Episode 7 was so adorable, indeed!!

Spoiler:

Totsugi Shigeyuki as Ranka, was awesome! I just thought his voice is too deep for an okama though, but other than that he made me laugh most of the time. He's such a great combination with Yamamoto Yusuke's Tamaki!

I'm amazed at how similar the comical special effects are, I didn't think they could actually do the Ranka-throw-Tamaki-to-the-wall scene in a live-action, lol!

Then, there were Tamaki-Haruhi's so sweet and adorable scenes! I love that Haruhi kept holding Tamaki's hand/arm at the supermarket. Also, the talk when Haruhi asked him what he wants to eat, and Tamaki said "O-nabe... with Mr. Prawn, Mr. Crab..."... kawaiii~~
Also the part when Tamaki accidentally pushed Haruhi down. In the manga/anime, Tamaki immediately apologized, but in this live-action, they were gazing at each other for a moment, and I like that!

Disappointed that there was no scene of Mori giving strawberry to Haruhi, but Kyoya accidentally rolls open the aluminium foil wrap, was cute, haha!

GAH! I have yet to see it

I must wait for the RAW but I saw a bit of the supermarket scene, so cute~!

I wish those stupid exams where over already !!! that way I can leisurely hold an Ouran Marathon !!
Episode 7's raw better comes out real quick...

Episode 7 raw: http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/syqdlimAZOA/

Oh hey, Ele, did you get my message in your ask box? I'm totally up for a second weekly live chat but we gotta figure out the time/day when as many people will be available!

Episode 7 HIGH-QUALITY Raw is available already too, in D-addicts Torrent!
I'm sure it'll be up in ourhour livejournal within the next 12 hours, at least!^v^

Oooh, awesome! I'll go update Tumblr!

Hehe, just had to share this TamaHaru gif:

Spoiler:

I think it's so adorable every time they walked together in this episode, it's like they really were a couple!

Oh the TamaHaru-ness!!!

I think ep.7 has been wonderful. Some specific thoughts:
-It doesn't look much like Tamaki and Haruhi are a couple. It looks more like a mother and an overgrown child to me. BUT, they look really cute, and their complementing traits are starting to show...
-In most parts, I think Ranka's voice is okay. Near the end, though, it started getting a lot, lot manlier. He looked like a yakuza when he was lecturing/threatening(?) Tamaki. Reminds me of Haruhi's look in her stare-off with Tamaki at Neko-chan's.
-I'm starting to really pity Tamaki for all the abuse he's receiving. Poor guy.

And...can't wait for ep.8! Yay! Neko-chan in focus! I like Neko-chan, and I like Ryo's way of acting the character. But, hmm... Is it just me or does Kirimi sounds like the anime version? Too similar. >.<

Oh, I didn't see Renge in the preview. Will she appear?

Those thoughts aside, ep. 7 is great, great, great!

Omg! I LOVED this week's episode! And what made it better was that I watched it when it aired and I was part of the nipplechat for the first time! It was fun and I'll definitely do it again this week^^

My fave parts were:
-Tamaki and the black magic club (I want to be part of the black magic club now)
-When they were looking around Haruhi's house (Tamaki and the kotatsu were awesome)
-Ranka meeting Tamaki (When Tamaki was debating what to do and when Ranka threw Tamaki like a bug)
-Tamaki running away crying and Haruhi cheered him up and held his hand going to the supermarket
-Everything that happened in the supermarket...I loved it all!

And I can't wait till episode 8! I didn't think they would do the police cosplay like they did in the manga- I'm super happy! And for the first time...I think I've fallen in love with Nekozawa. Without the cape and wig, he's super HOT!!!!!

I feel the same and that's why I find them adorable in this ep!^^ In the manga though, they're suppose to be the "gruff-mother and cry-baby son" (quoting the twin's comment in the manga). But in this drama, they looked more like the "kind older sister and cute younger brother", lol.

Is it bad that the more he gets abused the more I love Tamaki??

Raitei wrote:Oh, I didn't see Renge in the preview. Will she appear?

The live-action drama is based on the manga and they follow it faithfully, so far. In the manga, Renge wasn't in this story. (they made Renge appear more than she should have in the anime, just like Nekozawa's appearance in the live-action.)
So I don't think she'll show up at all next week.

(in the twins fight episode, Renge was in the story too in the manga, that's why she made a small appearance as well, in the live-action)

Tamaki is so adorable in this episode! Even if he does look like an overgrown child at times. And so many TamaHaru moments!

I did, and responded!


I think this episode was super great for me because it's my last nipplechat. >w< I had a lot of fun and spent the rest of the day chatting with a few of you. Also I love Ranka. XD

I can't wait for the subs to come out. Wish they'd come out within a few hours of release xD

I can't always keep up with the raw Japanese.

KYOUYA AND FOIL. That fail moment was so adorable, I can't-- GAH.

Anyway, *cough* I've been waiting for Ranka's appearance since the day they announced the showing of the live action. I admit it, I was more excited to see him than the actual Host Club itself. I was so glad they were able to pull it off! And I have to agree! THAT VOICE. So manry. So Ranka. Even his actions were very Ranka-like!



NEKOZAWA NEXT EPISODE. Kirimi's "Harem!" Police costumes. More Tamaki-fail. I CAN'T WAIT.

But seriously, I still can't get over Kyouya's foil fail.

Tamaki did look like a crybaby when he dashed out, but you're right, when they went together to the supermarket and Tamaki held on to Haruhi's shirt, it was really cute. It's like a little boy holding on to his sister. I wish my brother stayed cute and sweet like that. (he's now a real devil who's bigger than me )

I guess not. Lol. Maybe Yusuke will build nicer muscles with all these "exercise" he's getting into. >.<

Aww. I read the manga, but I've already forgotten most of the details. You're so cool! I'm a little sad, but I think it will be another awesome ep!


Hmm... Most seem to like Neko-chan with shorter hair. I think Neko-chan looks cuter with the long hair, though..

The part with Kyouya and the foil was the best.
Now that I think about it, they haven't said thus far that Honey and Mori are cousins, have they? People who haven't read the manga are likely thinking the worst...

i'm so jealous of haruhi wahhhhh but tamaki and her are really so cute hehe~

I love Ranka so freaking much
Very sekushii XD
I don't know, to me it felt like the voice-getting-manry-when-yelling-at-Tamaki thing was deliberate :/
buuut that could just be me ^^'

I'm sorry but I couldn't stop laughing at this the whole episode, It's not like i repeated it a few times or anything

Spoiler:

i think honey and mori are adorable though hehehe~
i can't believe honey's really 23!!! he looks like he's 5.

It's another episode win for the Ouran Host Club live-action drama!!

It was great, but I really am amazed with how much the producers of the show are taking their own spin on the episodes, and not just copying what was done in the manga or the anime versions.

Couple of things. . .

-The scenes at Haruhi's apartment were absolutely hilarious!! (And speaking personally, I thought their apartment looked totally cute/comfortable, I would totally be happy living in a place like that ^_^)
I loved how as soon as they got in, the host club members just starting going through Haruhi's things, touching stuff without even asking, and then Tamaki fell in love with the kotatsu. . . And of course Kyouya's apparent fascination with the aluminum foil. . .
And Haruhi is just in the background fuming, getting irritated by the second. . . .LOL

-I ADOOOOORE Ranka!!
I was a little puzzled/surprised though that the actor playing him didn't try to use a more high-pitched, feminine sounding voice when he spoke; not that I'm complaining, just making an observation lol
Ranka actually reminds me a lot of my own dad. But you know. . .minus the whole being a tranny thing. . .

-Yusuke Yamamoto really deserves some type of award or formal acknowledgement for his portrayal of Tamaki in this show. I think when the cast of the show was first announced, more than half of the Ouran fans (including myself) were a little iffy about Yusuke's ability to pull off the role of Tamaki. I am now more than 110% convinced that Yusuke is the BEST thing that ever happened to Tamaki Suoh since the character was created in the first place I really can't find any complaints about him.
Tamaki's kindness, overly emotional and dramatic tendencies, his "diva-like" persona, his incoherent ideas and babbling. . .Yusuke has done an absolutely astounding job bringing all of that to life: all of that to me definitely spells out "Best Actor in a Romantic Comedy series"

I thought the same~ I thought those scenes were so well done; they were very natural, it seemed like they'd just been told, "go into Haruhi's apartment and be generally irritating" rather than "Ok, Daito go and unroll that foil..." etc. ...if you get what I mean ^¬^'
And I now whole-heartedly ship Tamaki X Kotatsu. Yes.

THIS. I totally agree :3
Now I think most of us could never imagine anyone else playing Tamaki. Plus, the impression I get from the interviews etc. is that Yusuke is a lot like Tamaki in real life >u<

I HAD NO DOUBTS OKAY.
I saw Kamen Rider Kabuto. I knew he could play Tamaki. XD
