Terrace House: Boys x Girls Next Door

Good evening.

Good evening.

In this show, six strangers live together under one roof.

All the show has provided...

is a nice house and nice cars.

-As always, there is no script. -Yes.

Last time...

-Everyone left. -...a lot of people left the house.

I'll say, "I'm off," and head out, okay?

I'm off. Thank you.

Starting this spring, she'll be working at an apparel company.

And then, Yo-san, too...

Thank you.

-See you all later. -See ya.

-Thank you! -Thank you.

It was an intense 9 months.

Yeah, seriously.

He was really loved and really hated.

It was almost like a bonfire online.

And then one more person: Maimai.

-Maimai. -Oh, Maimai too!

She properly conveyed her feelings to Tetsu, and was cleanly dumped.

I've always...

loved you, Tecchan.

Your way of thinking, and your values and tastes...

Those sort of things, compared to me, are so vastly different.

I understand.

I met her recently, and it seemed like she was having fun.

You met her?

I did! She came to my dressing room!

Rinati came knocking,

with, "It's Sumioka!"

So I thought it was her and it'd be fine.

But when I said, "Yes?" she was like, "Plop!"

Oh!

It was a raw "plop!"

A raw "plop!"

Yeah, I got a raw "plop!"

And she was like, "Thank you for everything!"

I wasn't particularly planning on helping her or anything.

It's really embarrassing.

I said, "Oh, I'm sorry," and so I lost.

-So you lost! -He lost!

It was a failure. Don't clap!

So there's only 3 people.

Tecchan, Seina-san,

-and Ippei-chan. -Oh yeah, Ippei-chan.

I wonder if they'll come today?

-They have to come today! -I wonder.

We can't watch a week of just those three living together.

Yes?

I'm Ryoko Hirasawa and I'll be living here starting today.

Okay, I'll come down now.

Thanks.

Nice to meet you.

-Are you okay? -Excuse me.

I'm fine, thank you very much.

It's this way.

Okay.

-Thank you very much. -No worries, not a problem.

-Ouch! -Thank you very much.

-It's nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.

I was surprised.

Seina-san!

Yeah.

Yes, she's here.

I thought no one was here.

Just Ippei-kun isn't here. He's the one other person.

-Hi, nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.

I'm Seina Shimabukuro.

I'm Ryoko Hirasawa.

Nice to meet you.

How old are you?

24.

Oh, 24.

What's your work?

-I work at a record label. -Oh.

-What's the label's name? -I work for Sony Music Records.

-Wow. -A famous one.

-That's where I work. -I know it.

Oh, thank goodness.

Since when have you been working there?

It'll be my second year as of this coming April.

-I see. -Yes.

I see.

-Do you have a goal or anything? -A goal...?

-...for coming to Terrace House. -I...

don't have any friends.

-No way! -You have no friends? No way!

I don't have friends for eating out,

or hanging out on my days off.

So I felt like it'd be nice to make friends here.

-I'm looking forward to it. -Me, too.

Seina-san, can you show her to the girls' room?

Of course!

Of course, of course.

What should I do... I haven't cleaned it at all.

I look forward to seeing it.

Ohh!?

Seriously?

Yes.

Hello. I'll be living here from today.

Okay, I'm coming.

It's a guy.

Hello.

Hi, nice to meet you.

-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.

-Can I leave this here? -Totally, totally.

My name is Kenya Yasuda.

I play a sport called water polo.

I'm a part of Team Japan.

Oh, amazing!

Wow.

-It's good to meet you. -It's nice to meet you.

That's really amazing. I really noticed your broad shoulders.

-Amazing. -Wow.

Do you wanna sit?

Yes.

Is that okay?

Go ahead.

-How old are you? -I'm twenty--

Yesterday was my birthday, and I turned 25.

-Happy birthday! -Thank you.

Do you have a goal for coming to Terrace House?

I want more people...

to learn about the sport of water polo.

And also, in sports like water polo,

it's a man's world, or there aren't many women.

There are women's teams, but, I'd sorta like to find a girlfriend.

I want to ask if you'd like something to drink,

-but all we have is milk. -Yeah, just milk.

-I'll have milk. -I'll have milk, too.

We don't have any water.

We have to change out the thing for the water.

How many days off do you get per week?

With practice, I get maybe 1 or 2 days off each week, if at all.

-I'm pretty much only ever practicing. -Oh.

The milk is also all out!

What should we do? Should we go shopping after?

Yeah. Sorry for the insufficient amount of milk.

-Thank you very much. -I'm really sorry.

Thank you.

-It's weird all we have is milk. -Bon appétit.

-We should go shopping. -Shall we go shopping?

Oh, wow.

We don't have any more milk!

-The doorbell! -Oh, the doorbell.

Yes!

Hello. I'm going to be living here from today.

I'm coming.

Oh, is this Tecchan's job?

It's 'cause Tecchan was closer.

Hello.

Hello.

-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.

My name is Frances.

I'm 25,

and I'm working as a painter.

Oh, wow!

So all of my luggage is painting tools.

Oh, wow.

Yeah.

Sorry, your pronunciation was too good,

so can I ask your name again one more time?

It's Frances,

but everyone calls me Frankie.

Are you a halfie, Frankie-chan?

I'm half-Japanese and half-American.

But I was born and raised in Tokyo.

Oh, really?

But I've always gone to international schools,

so actually English is my main language.

And during the day, I work as an English teacher.

Oh, really?

That's right.

And so, well...

what would you say was your impetus for coming here?

-Impetus? -Impetus?

My impetus was that I don't have any friends...

I also don't have any!

Why don't you have any?

I want to know that, too...

So funny!

You don't know it yourself? Why you don't have friends?

Oh, my.

Do you know why, Frankie-chan?

Until now, I've intentionally not been making any.

-Why? -So cool.

In a way, I'm very stoic.

And when I paint...

"Make art, not friends."

That's always been my policy.

Or, "make art, not friends,"

has been my policy,

so if I have time to even relax with some tea or something,

then I should put that all into painting. I wanted to live without wasting anything.

Wow.

So I was stoic until now.

But I thought within a share house,

I could paint while making friends,
