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

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.

when should we expect them in europe?

would definitely recommend watching BGND before watching season 2 of OND

yuki getting swerved for costco was so painful

why do the panellists continually hold their hands up over their mouths ? mostly when laughing, but sometimes when speaking too. is it a modesty thing? or are they embarrassed by their teeth ? I thought it was just the women who do it but I've noticed yokui doing it too

Only the Tokyo panelists do, you'll notice the Kansai ones don't (Baba-chan & Tokui). It's a regional thing.

that's interesting. I thought yokui was from kansai? I thought I'd picked up on that when they were doing all the (very opaque) riffing on natsumi's accent

also why is tsubasa so lovely

Tokui does a lot of impressions of the team members, maybe that's why? He has a distinguishable Kyoto accent and Babachan has a thick Osaka accent. When they laugh, they show their tongue and inside of their mouth which most stereotypical Tokyo people think is uncivilized.

The new season Tsubasa and Taka-san have these crazy mountain accents and speak in dialect to each other that's pretty country but cool. I think the panel made fun of Taka and his bro's radio station where they speak almost exclusively in dialect.

thanks. all the kansai accent ribbing directed at natsumi in the first series was fully impenetrable to me (still absolutely hilarious for some reason) (I guess regional accent ribbing is universal, and there are archetypes across the world even if you don't know the specific specifics in question)

I've watched S02E10 now and don't really get the significance of the twist but I gather things might get /interesting/ now

Are y'all going to be talking about stuff that isn't on Netflix yet? Not sure whether to avoid the thread.

I don't think we should. as soon as it's up on netflix, it's fair game. sorry, I tried to keep my ref oblique (someone had already referred to it upthread as 'a twist')

So what was the deal with Cheri anyway? Was she just partying way too hard and flipped out?

I won't post any spoilers for the new season, but I can't make any promises about the earlier seasons!

Cheri slowly melted down into an alcoholic haze until she was confronted about a few things and then got incredibly defensive (and offensive to Mariko). Pretty immature and trashy for your typical TH member. She's also a Trump supporter and 2nd ammendment nut.

OMG, are you kidding me. I saw that after the show she still won Miss Ala Moana and was surprised. She kind of had hard drug bloat/paralysis going on with her face that I had no clue what was going on.

I always get jolted when I meet a Hawaiian Trump supporter (early last year). But the whole sovereignty/ religious thing it kind of made sense.

Yeah, her voice became more and more gravelly as well... Hopefully she detoxed.
