"He's got the passionate Italian blood." "He clearly tells Arman his intentions." ""Oh, really, that's good."" ""Oh, really, that's fine with me." "I think that's fine."" "Only the bottom half of Arman's face moves." "The top half reveals no expression." "Maybe he's had a lot of Botox done." "Do you like the ocean?" "I love the ocean." "Me, too."

"Natsumi." "That led to the development of the Kansai Dilemma." "The Kansai Dilemma?" "The first Kansai Dilemma in Terrace House." "Minori experienced Kansai firsthand." "But couples that are always making fun of each other," "I don't really understand." "It's harder to imagine them kissing." "MINORI NAKADA, 21 YEARS OLD" "Do you have to be able to imagine it?" "No, but..." "ARISA OHATA, 25 YEARS OLD" "You guys are probably just complete opposites." "Total opposites." "She wouldn't let it go." "I was a little ticked." "TATSUYA UCHIHARA, 24 YEARS OLD" "She's scary." "Scary?" "She clearly said she's scared." "She did." "She doesn't have bad intentions." "Her intentions are good." "It was just Kansai style teasing."

"how will the Kansai Dilemma be resolved?" "If it gets resolved." "And the way Arisa rejected Arman." "Let's have everyone remember how terrible she was." "She's busy with her work now, and things have been left at that." "But let's all keep questioning whether her actions were human." "His dark side is in control now." "I can't see anything else." "Yes, you are wearing a necklace after all." "Bad boys wear necklaces, right?" "Arisa seems busy." "Have you talked?" "Not recently." "I want to, but I don't want to bother her." "She does seem really busy." "It's not a great time to ask for a date." "Why don't you do something for her?" "Yeah, I've told her to let me know if there's anything I can help with." "Why don't you cook for her?" "She did say it'd be nice to have dinner ready when she gets home." "That's true." "I can't imagine him cooking." "I can make poke." "What?" "Poke." "Poke?" "Poke." "What's poke?" "It's a Hawaiian dish." "You cut albacore into cubes, you dice them, and mix it with sesame oil and soy sauce." "Sounds good." "Like a maguro-don." "Yes, a poke-don." "Sounds tasty." "It sounds cute, poke-don." "Maybe I'll surprise her." "I'm sure she'll be happy." "Yeah." "And I'm free tomorrow, so I'll make it then." "You're free tomorrow?" "Yeah." "When do you work?" "Nacchan said the same thing." "What?" ""Aren't you worried that you don't work?"" "She said the same thing to Minori." "Right?" "Oh, she said it to Minori, too?" "She's back." "Welcome back." "I'm home." "Welcome back." "Welcome back." "I'm back." "Back from China?" "I'm back from China." "Welcome back." "Thanks." "It's been a while." "It has!" "I'm so tired!" "Wow, you get to travel out of the country." "Did you say you're going to Okinawa, too?" "Yeah, the day after tomorrow." "The day after tomorrow?" "Oh, maybe the day after that." "For how long?" "Three days, two nights." "You're never here." "Never." "You're so busy." "Yeah, really busy." "But you're off tomorrow?" "I'm off tomorrow." "That's good." "I'm going to get some water."

"Did we eat udon?" "Yeah, what Arisa made." "We'll do it." "We did eat it." "We'll do it." "Let's put in some effort." "Are you guys not bothered?" "Yeah, we all tend to not be bothered." "Yeah, whoever notices usually does it." "We're all pretty laid back." "Let's just get the dishes done now." "So impressive." "Come on." "Doesn't it only take one person to wash dishes?" "No, two."

"Why did you join Terrace House?" "Because it sounded fun." "Oh." "And what's the reason you're still here?" "My reason?" "For me, January just happens to be busy." "If I was home all the time, I'd think about why I'm here now." "In my case anyway." "You're saying that's me now?" "Well... yeah." "Or, if I was in that situation." "I don't think there's anything wrong with having free time, or being home because of it." "Do you think about leaving?" "I do." "No way." "I'm leaving in February." "What?" "That's my plan." "The end of February." "Really?" "Yeah." "What about your boyfriend?" "He knows." "But I don't know what Uchi will be doing." "I'm sure you wouldn't like it if he stays." "What?" "Your boyfriend."

"It's been a week, but you've only been at Terrace House for two days." "Yeah." "Three days I mean." "How is it?" "Of the girls, Arisa is easiest to talk to." "Really?" "Yeah." "But out of everyone, you're the easiest to talk to." "Seriously?" "I'm glad." "What about Minori?" "Minori?" "I guess it's just her personality." "Anything I say..." "I think she takes offense to it." "She's sensitive?" "Yeah." "She'll say, "What's wrong with that?"" "I don't mean to hurt her." "But anyways..." "I thought she might not like me." "Everyone's pretty peaceful." "Really?" "We don't argue." "Most of the members don't really talk, though." "That's true." "Maybe that's why." "Since I came, I've thought about how everyone's so nice." "No one ever complains." "I wonder how they really feel." "It's nice we get along, and it's peaceful, but that's all." "There's a wall." "You develop real friendships after arguing, or more talks." "So I think it's good." "You bring a new vibe to the house." "So..." "Yeah?" "An honest question." "Totally honest." "What is it?" "About Arisa..." "Do you really like her?" "Yeah, I do." "Really?" "She works until midnight every day." "I don't want to bother her by asking her on a date." "So it's not like things are awkward." "Awkward?" "No, not anymore." "Do you like her a lot?" "Or is it just interest right now?" "I like her." "That much?" "Yeah, kind of a lot." "I see." "What percentage?" "Well, I just like her." "I don't know what percentage." "So you really like her." "I see." "I want to be in love, too." "You do?" "I do!" "I don't necessarily want to be in a relationship." "Just in love." "Sounds good." "Will you pull it for me?" "Hold on." "Let me go first." "It's cold." "No way!" "It's true." "Yeah." "The sand?" "Oh, how embarrassing!" "Isn't that hard to put on while laying down?"

"Totally." "It's so pretty, though." "Look." "Yeah, it's clear." "Nice." "Nice." "I'm good at selfies." "That was fun." "Yeah." "Sparks are flying between Minori and Natsumi." "At any moment, Minori could be like," ""What's your problem?"" "There was that kind of tension." "It's gone beyond the Kansai idea, though." "That's true." "That wasn't quite the general Kansai teasing." "No, the issue goes beyond that." ""If I was at home with nothing to do, I might question myself..."" ""You're talking about me?" "Yeah."" "Unbelievable!" "That's hard to say." "Unbelievable!" "If she was going to say it..." "She said it herself;" "she happens to be busy now." "But next month, she'll have free time too." "So she should have prefaced it with, "I'll be in the same situation."" "Yes." "If she was going to say that to Minori." "Is that an attack on her?" "I wonder." "I wondered if she just didn't notice how Minori was taking it." "But she knew." "So that means... maybe Natsumi's also annoyed by Minori's reactions." "Like, "Why are you all worked up?"" "It's a different crassness than Seina's." "It's different." "Yeah." "SEINA SHIMABUKURO" "Seina's crassness was just stupidity with no bad intentions." "Like a rampaging dog." "A rampaging dog knocking things over." "But this is a rampaging human." "Yeah, a person." "A rampaging human." "A rampaging human?" "Maybe she's just a little immature and spirited." "Yeah, she probably doesn't have bad intentions." "There's that, too, but also, Arman apparently still likes Arisa." "That's true." "And the way Natsumi was questioning Arman." ""Do you like her?" And he says, "Yeah."" "And then, "How much?" She really questions him." "And she says she wants to be in love, too." "She did invite him out." "How do you think Natsumi feels about Arman?" "Like, she's just playing with a big dog." "She's a bit of a tomboy." "I sense a bit of Heidi in her." "You mean the type that innocently leads men on." "So she's a Heidi." "Yeah, of Naniwa." "Heidi of Naniwa." "I'm sorry." "I hadn't made that connection." "How is it, chef?" "It's delicious." "Is it?" "It's good." "Right?" "It's good." "Hi." "We're making Hawaiian food." "Poke-don?" "Poke-don?" "Yeah, Poke-don." "Ahi poke." "There might not be enough for everyone." "It's supposed to be for Arisa." "You already had curry, right?" "We did." "You can try some of the ahi poke." "Okay." "What?" "Nothing." "What?" "It was nothing." "Hey, Arman, let's go chat." "What?" "Let's chat." "What?" "What's going on?" "What is it?" "I don't know." "How scary!" "What'd you do today?" "I went to Shonan." "By yourself?" "Of course not!" "With Arman." "Why?" "What do you mean?" "For fun?" "Are you mad?" "What?" "Why?" "What?" "What's going on?" "It's just sudden." "I wondered if you made plans long before." "What?" "Sudden?" "What?" "What did you do in Shonan?" "So many questions." "What?" "Did you wonder where we went?" "I didn't know you guys went out." "Did everyone share that stuff before?" "Everyone usually knew..." "I think we usually knew." "We only decided this morning." "What?" "We only just decided this morning, so there wasn't time to say anything." "Are you listening?" "Yeah." "If you need me to report anything, just let me know." "I've never needed that." "It just sounds like you're mad at me." "Like, "How could you just go?" Like, "Why wouldn't you tell anyone?"" "And here we are just cooking and trying to have dinner, and you guys come in and call him out." "Why can't they just talk here?" "I'm sorry?" "What?" "I'm sorry." "No, that's not it." "It's nothing to apologize for." "What was going on there?" "You mean being in the kitchen together?" "If it's what we talked about yesterday," "I though poke-don was something you would make for Arisa." "I just figured she could help if I'm making poke, and we'd make it together." "You didn't tell her you were making it for Arisa?" "Like, the idea why you're making it?" "Well, no." "If you don't tell her, it's like there's something going on." "Instead of, "Hey, I made this with Nacchan,"" "she'll be happier if it's completely from you." "She said she'd help, and we're roommates." "She didn't do anything wrong." "I don't mean she did." "I don't think it's anything to have a serious talk over." "Sorry for the wait." "It's done already?" "Not yet." "The poke, I mean." "Oh, the poke." "The color changed." "Yeah." "It looks a little grotesque." "Bon appétit." "Bon appétit." "Sorry it's gotten complicated." "What?" "It's gotten complicated." "It's okay." "I said I was going to make it for Arisa yesterday." "So he asked why we're making it together, and he said that she'd probably be happier if I made it myself." "And that might be true, but you offered to help." "From now on... when I go somewhere with you," "I'll tell Arisa." "Sure." "But what's the point of telling Uchi and Minori?" "It doesn't concern them." "I don't know why they're so worried." "It was delicious." "I'm really sorry it's gotten complicated." "It's not your fault." "I'm back." "Welcome back." "Did you have dinner already?" "I did." "I thought maybe you hadn't." "Really?" "Can you still eat?" "I'm sorry." "I ate some bread while working." "There's some Hawaiian poke... that I made." "You made it?" "I'm sorry." "I'll have some then." "Just a little." "I'm so happy." "Want something to drink?" "Yeah, some water." "Water?" "Here." "Thanks." "It's very thoughtful of you." "It's nothing." "You seem so busy." "I've never had this before." "How is it?" "It's delicious." "Is it?" "Yeah." "Nacchan helped, too." "How're things going?" "I'm busy with work." "If there's anything I can do, just let me know." "Like physical labor." "Physical labor?" "Physical labor..." "None?" "I'll let you know." "I asked why they went out today." "Then she asked if I was mad." "Yesterday we were talking about work, too." "I wonder why she's combative towards me." "Can't you tell her?" "Even if I do, I feel like she's not trying to understand." "It's like, "Why are you like that?" "Why are you like that, Minori?"" "And just now, she said something like," ""If you say it like that, it doesn't make me feel good."" "I don't know if I can live with her." "It's hard." "Should I talk to her?" "To Nacchan?" "That was quite a scene." "Lots of sparks flying." "Surprising." "There were a lot of "what"s." "What?" "What?" "What?" "Here it is." "The stress is here." "This is what they mean when they say, they just don't mesh." "They just don't mesh." "I'm sure it was annoying for her to see her unhappy expression and yet not clearly saying anything." "It's really easy to see how conflicts occur." "It's like these earphones." "You put them in your bag, and they get tangled." "Yes." "I feel like I just saw how they get tangled." "I see." "I see." "I don't really think either are at fault." "It's just a difference in personality." "But when Natsumi helped Arman, Uchi said, "That's not good."" "Why are you nit-picking her actions?" "You're a man." "There's no need for that." "It's so nit-picky!" "He pulled him aside and everything." "I'd understand if it was a girl." "I'd get it if it was Minori's or Arisa's friend." "But he's a man!" "He shouldn't get involved." "He'd listened to Minori's complaints." "Maybe he just felt like he needed to help." "He probably has to hear it all the time." "I bet the Japanese-style room is hell just until he sleeps." "After getting home from work." "Yes, having to listen to "This is what she said today, and she made this kind of face," and on and on..." "It's bad luck that they happen to be at Terrace House at the same time." "It's bad timing." "Maybe we'll get to see how to resolve issues like these." "If it can be resolved." "Let's have a house meeting today." "So what happened was, when the two of us were cooking," "Uchi suddenly pulled Arman away." "Out of the room." "And Minori sat here." "I didn't really like the way Minori was talking to me." "Her tone..." "Minori denied it, saying that was not how she meant it." "That's when things got a little..." "I see." "There was a little argument." "But we didn't want things to be awkward." "That's how this started." "But what Uchi did in that moment wasn't very good." "Why?" "First of all, I didn't know he was making it for Arisa." "That's true." "Yeah." "So Arman was making it for Arisa?" "Yeah." "Either way, you could've just said it here." "I was thinking of you at that point." "In case you didn't know Arman liked Arisa." "I didn't want you to feel" "But that's just an assumption." "Assumption?" "Your own assumption." "You assumed that I have feelings for Arman." "That's why you did what you did." "That's right." "I assumed" "But if that's not true" "And what if it was true?" "If you make assumptions, then while we were just cooking together as normal roommates, I" "Let's say my assumptions are right" "You don't know that." "You have no right." "So it was just a matter of Arman not explaining well enough." "So it's Arman's fault?" "Not his fault, but yesterday..." "So it was all just a misunderstanding." "Yeah, I get both sides." "So he told you why, right?" "That he likes Arisa, and as a roommate, you'd help." "You had that conversation, right?" "What do you mean?" "No, we didn't." "I didn't tell her the meal was for Arisa." "No." "But earlier, we talked about Arisa." "And I told her I liked her." "But no, I didn't say the meal was for Arisa." "Can I explain my thoughts?" "Coming home, I saw you guys cooking together and thought, "What?"" "That's where I felt that" "I got that." "The moment you came in, you both gave me weird looks." "And it made me uncomfortable." "I thought, "Why look at me like that?"" "It was my fault for not explaining." "And I talked to Arman and found out that it was just as roommates, so it was fine." "But if it wasn't, and it was just you guys cooking together, then I felt it was wrong, so I pulled Arman aside." "So it was on behalf of Arisa." "But did you consider how I'd feel by doing that?" "Did I consider?" "Well, I..." "We were just cooking, and you guys came and suddenly pulled aside Arman." "And then you guys disappeared, and Minori started interrogating me." ""Where'd you go today?" "Why?" "Why would you do that?"" "That's what it sounded like to me." "If someone does that to you" "I do feel bad about that." "I think I didn't word it well." "I honestly didn't know what Uchi was going to say to Arman." "We weren't trying to gang up on you." "But the tone of voice is revealing." "I think what came out stemmed from our previous talks when you asked me why I liked Uchi." "You said things like how we're a strange couple." "That really made me feel bad." "You tend to be... pretty blunt." "So that was me just honestly asking." "But you kept taking it as criticism." "So what happened in the kitchen is the flip of that." "Yeah, you didn't consider Minori's feelings." "Just like you asked whether I considered your feelings." "Have you considered Minori's feelings?" "Is it just all about how we look at it?" "There's that too, and the way I said things in the kitchen, as well as how you've said things." "We're here because of all of that." "You've just misunderstood each other." "I didn't explain well enough either." "So let's not let this happen again." "Let's all do our best to not let it happen again." "It's inevitable." "Cheers!" "If you brush it off like that, the friendship will always remain superficial."
