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

At tonight's Dodgers game, Kenta Maeda's pre-at-bat music is "Slow Down" by Lights Follow, the international theme to Terrace House.

New Season (Terrace House: Tokyo 2019-2020) premieres a week from today.

...in Japan, probably late July for international audiences.

I wonder why they haven't done a place like Kyoto or Osaka?

Just too far to get the same people who would need to commute to Tokyo?

I think for this season they want to capture the energy of the upcoming Olympics.

I have to point out the whole franchise started in Shonan which is several large regions/municipalities away from Tokyo, but definitely commutable. Another thing is I think there has only been a few Osaka cast members (& nobody from Kyoto iirc).

I am still not over Tsubasa and Shion.

Maybe their arc is not over...

Me and imago are just catching up on the sixth part and omg. It’s a full-blown thriller at times.

Yui is the demonic antihero you can't help but root for

Keep watching, lol

Lauren's uncle is New England celeb chef Ming Tsai.

New season is kind of slow to start, feel like everyone is on eggshells after Karuizawa.

...until ep4, which is a real blast, the panel is on fire and the episode ends on some playful drunken dare/confession!

ALSO: Yama-chan has pulled a fast one on everyone, he just got married to actress Yu Aoi after a 2-month engagement:

OH congrats to him! He is going to have to change his schtick now.

This damn show made me add a Chvrches song to a playlist... ugh.

There's some good old fashioned drama between the girls already. Nice fight, the panel said that it was the most intense fight yet but they are forgetting the last Tokyo season apparently!

Welp, episode 11 in the new season has a scene that you will never forget lol. i take it the new season is not available on intl netflix yet?

I see a placeholder on Netflix for it but no release date.

I think it is strange Yui and Aio are still together.

Now that Taishi & Chikako have called it quits (+ Frankie & her husband from BGND got divorced!), I think the only two on-screen couples still involved are the highly unlikely Yui/Aio & Seina/Noah from OND.

Someone who was doing some IG-stalking noticed that Ryo (hazel-eyed apparel guy from Aloha State) & Naomi are now an item.

Seina and Noah seemed the most complimentary of couples. I can see them together for awhile.

Do not underestimate Yui! She knows at least three forms of witchcraft

Some mad cute chicks on this show. I think minori’s sister is my favorite

Mamma mia, first non-asian cast member to join the show. Weebs everywhere rejoicin'

NO!

First 12 episodes on netflix up!

so glad the ages are much more spread out.

Seven episodes in, omg Ruka is both a total moron and a snake, I fucking despise him so much. Another flawless victory for Yamachan's OTMness

Oh my dayzzz Shohei I have something totes raaaandom to tAlK tO yoU AbOuT but bot until tomorrow hehehehehe!

*tomorrow*

yeah that girl you're trying to date? hehehe I faaancy her too!! never spoken to her! should I ask her out? I'm totally going to ask her out hehehehe wowzors!!!!2!7!!

SPOILER I guess eh too late it probably isn't even going to be anything tbh

Yamachan is an excellent judge of character. He is also looking great. Marriage agrees with him.

omg Shohei is an idiot too, this is the most frustrating season of anything ever

Yamachan marriage reveal was the biggest shock ever on TH! I always hoped that there was some kind of a secret connection between him and Torichan.

And yeah, Shohei appears to have difficulty accepting happiness for himself...

Do you guys get episode 11 yet?

**Scrolls up** yes you do! That was a doozy lol.

there are 12 episodes online. we just finished episode 5. SPICYSOL. I don't like this new theme song.

The one they're using in Japan is OMG THE FIRST NON TAYLOR SWIFT SONG, it's this instead:

I think towards the end of this 12 ep chunk, one of the saddest saps of the TH franchise comes back (he doesn't even live in the house!) and just won't go away.... ugh.

Haha we haven't actually seen ep.11 yet, but I think I know who you're talking about. I've seen people really loving him though!

What is the reason for the different theme tunes? And why is the one we get always like some weird eurodance/emo thing (not that I'm complaining)?

International licensing. Its why there's a delay in the release in Japan vs the rest of world: editors scrub all the music out & replace it with generic youtube pop/rock.

the Japanese theme is much better.

Lauren Tsai is on Legion? She has very good eyeliner.

Is she? Good for her! She was such a well-rounded person.

Also omg re: sad sap mentioned above. He’s just showed up (again).

I'm on episode 16 and he's STILL HANGING AROUND....

bah, I am spoiling myself and looking who it is because I can only imagine it's one person.

Nooo not again! They need to bring in like Makun or someone to take him to the beach for surfing lessons.

The time they carved out to celebrate yamachan getting married is cute. It's kind of statistically odd? though that he is the first of the panel to marry.

aren't at least one of tokui and you divorced

It’s crazy that it would have happened after just two months! Especially with him working throughout that time. I wonder if he speaks about it much on his oft-referenced YouTube channel

Oh, maybe he's the only one to be currently married then. I see that You is divorced.

You is twice divorced.
