This was the first ever season I watched of Terrace House.
It's a rabbit hole, you keep watching and watching because you are curious how their stories develop and it's unscripted. Until I realised what is being filmed is highly curated by the producers, they decide what is being showed. Like Risako and Haruka are friends in real life (they mentioned it on Instagram), but the producers didn't show those scenes, only drama and fight scenes. And 1 episode = 1 week that consists of +/- 20 minutes of filmed content, so what's being shown is not accurate at all, there were many plot holes throughout the show.
Also a few cast members went on the show to only help their careers and not find love. It was clear as day. I watched this show until Hana Kimura came around, who was really after love. What a bright lady. I went on the internet and by surprise saw that she was found dead in her house at the end of May 2020 due to cyber bullying and her skin color following a fight with a cast member which apparently was shown on the show. It saddens me and I was so shocked. Also, the panel that gives commentary on the show is sometimes funny, but there are boundries. They went overboard many times. In the end the panel in the show is highly toxic and influence the public opinion. I will not continue to watch this show anymore. I will not support the toxicity of this show. I recommend to not waist your time and move on to another series.
