"Break up caused by meat! Break up caused by meat!" - The official TERRACE HOUSE thread

Driving me crazy that I can't watch until this weekend (houseguest).

Always knew there was more to that Natsumi/Misaki fight. Misaki seemed terrified for a while afterwards until Byrnes arrived on the scene, aaww. It would be nice if they stayed together! Minori and her new husband look very sweet together.

That must be hard. I’ll try to keep spoilers to a minimum. I should really be writing an essay this week anyway...

My spouse (and houseguest) walked in and I was watching Greatest Homes or whatever that new show is called, and he saw the reflection in the window and started chastising me for watching TH without him. He just saw people sitting down in a living room and thought it was the new one.

Minori's and new husband look great/happy in the pics.

Do the producers of the show prod people to leave if they get boring or is it really strictly up to the person?

Arman never leaving should answer that. :D

(when the jokes aren't being lost in translation)

One of my favourite things is when the jokes and references are completely opaque. I like not getting the joke.

When they talk about Guy and the rice ball...it was amazing.

I loved Arman.

Hot Pot Sergeant!

I like the snowboarder, he's cool.

I need to orchestrate a situation where I can use 'hot pot sergeant' in normal conversation.

between this and Mind of a Chef, I want to eat Ramen every day.

what's the status of homosexuality in Japan? an equivalent show in the UK would definitely have homosexual or bisexual participants. to be honest I find the gay element in UK TV now to be too much, especially in soap operas and reality shows. I am actually interested by the lack of them, it's a relief.

i could just google that but i feel like i wouldn't be particularly enlightened.

Perfectly countered.

I did like Arman eventually, he was just coasting by doing nothing significantly entertaining for months and didn't have a care in the world about it. It's always perfect when the presenters get up in arms about providing free accommodation for someone who isn't pulling their weight.

The thing about Arman's edit that was perhaps unfair to him was that when Arman was leaving LocoMart (the gardening center in Kamakura) the honcho said that he was the hardest working TH member who'd ever worked for him. The panel who'd been giving him a hard time took back all the things they said about him being a slacker as it recast him in a different light coming from a successful business leader (with good reason, the crew probably couldn't make the trip from HigashiGotanda to Kamakura every shift).

Arman has gone behind the camera and is doing a lot of work in video production in Hawaii and Japan. It's vague whether he's still with Martha or not.

Up to episode 7. I love that the disappointing mizutaki is still being brought up seven weeks later.

I think around ep7 it starts to get really pretty in Karuizawa. Any scene with Tsubasa's Dad is my favorite so far.

It looks like a nice area. I like the shots with Mt. Asama rising up in the background.

Tori-chan's dismay on the subject of ex-partners hooking up is amazing

I think Tori-chan looks really fresh this season with her no bangs and short hair. My spouse said she looked old! WTF!

Yuudai seems so much younger than anyone who has been on this show.

your spouse OTM! I liked her look most in the first season.

here's a vid of her interviewing Tokyo Hotel in German:

Yuudai seems to get younger and younger every episode.

watching both series simultaneously. arman has just joined in series 1. enjoying series 2 cast more, though yuudai is infuriating. ami was mean to him on their athletics course date tho

Yuudai should have been on Aloha State.

The most gripping and dramatic aspect to Terrace House is Tori-chan's face when the others are all being vulgar

Meanwhile she's doing splatter movies with Sion Sono.

I like Tori-chan, but I do think she lays it on kind of thick sometimes.

We can't figure out what the deal is with Yuudai. I thought Ami was perfectly fine to him on the date. He's an oblivious 12 year old. Episode 8! And then have to wait for new episodes to drop. Will start the ones on Terrible House after. I love when Tori-chan puffs out her cheeks.

Seriously, what is up with Yuudai. I don't want to but I might have to do some research on reddit about his fuckery.

“I don’t like to talk while eating. I’m conversing with my taste buds.” - !!!

When he asks his ex to put his socks on for him...

I guess he did say up front that he expected to be treated like a puppy.

Tsubasa and Shion are pleasant and low-key. There's not much to say about them.

I see that there is some talk online of Shion and Tsubasa both being gay and just mutually agreed upon dating for the show. Regardless I love them both and would watch them just for pleasant hanging out.

yuudai’s ex’s response was classic. “no.”

His ex's and his friends' responses were like "damn, ice cold." Everyone is just done with him.

Where should I start with this?

Hahaha! VP. Too bad I am not in the city, we could watch this together. We love it so much.

VP, go chrono:
start with BGND on terriblehouse.com
then BGitC on regular netflix
then Aloha State
then BGOND

I'm finishing up Aloha State now, and it's getting good again with Chikako.

"What's an inspection kiss?" "That sounds like something from the Soviet Union."

Paw Broon's got the toothache again.

Uh. Wrong thread, obv.

who even knows

maybe he can talk some common sense into yuudai

Oh wow, I just read the summaries for season 2 epis of Opening New Doors. WINE!

The first 3 eps of S2 are on Terrible House, and you should definitely watch them, huge bombshell!

Yeh, that is what I was just reading. I was so confused for a second.
