![]() ![]() ** ''Opening New Doors'': Both Shion (half white American) and Noah (half-Austrian) were considered "high spec" prospects by house members and the commentators in part because of what they considered to be exceedingly good looks due to their mixed ancestry. ** ''Boys & Girls in the City'': Half-Italian Hikaru Ota was highly sought after by Misaki and both the girls in the house and the commentators noted that his mixed background gave him his handsome appearance. * MixedAncestryIsAttractive: Sometimes comes up in relation to half-Japanese residents. She discusses this when she visits the house after graduating, noting that after ] she felt like she needed to look more feminine. ![]() As she’ll tell you herself, Seina is a legend.* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Though downplayed, the dynamic between Tsubasa and Shion in ''Opening New Doors'' is this: she's a professional hockey player with short hair who doesn't dress very femininely, while he's a male model who's good at cooking and cleaning, and isn't good at sports compared to Tsubasa. Their coupling was so electric, it got even noted prude Torichan extremely horny. And she might have broken girl code a little to get with Noah, but c’mon. For example, when Shion tried to take her out for a date, she shut it down quickly because she knew the depth of Tsubasa’s feelings. And although she was there to smash, Seina rarely threw her female housemates under the bus. Seina met her boyfriend on her original season, then when they broke up she joined Opening New Doors to find a new dude. She then made cameo appearances on B&GITC and Aloha State. Seina was a cast member on the original, non-Netflix Boys and Girls Next Door. Uchi and Minori would have never gotten together without her prodding.

And everyone wears whatever brand the show is promoting (Supreme in Boys and Girls in the City, 88 Tees in Aloha State, and Brew in Opening New Doors). ![]() Most are some sort of model, at least part-time. House members share some common characteristics. There have been four iterations of Terrace House, three of which are on Netflix. And if a Talking Dead-style after-show broke in occasionally to roast the contestants. It’s like The Great British Baking Show if the contestants sometimes kissed. Terrace House is a show about personal growth, but also close-up shots of food. ![]() Three women and three men live together to find love and/or professional success. In fact, it’s one of the least eventful shows on television. Terrace House, the Japanese reality show institution, is the perfect antidote to current events. In this tumultuous and disgusting world, we need more nice and calming content. This post was originally published October 2018 and has been updated with new Terrace House members.
