Good evening.

Here we are, looking at the Christmas lights in the city.

Once again today, I'm on the move!

Six boys and girls, who have never met before,

suddenly began living together in a share house.

It's already been three months.

All the show has prepared is

a nice house and a nice car.

And so...

our cameras are recording the lives of these six people.

So we have the pro-surfer Ma-kun,

also, the girl from AKB,

Tecchan, who has failed his firefighting exam,

the model who's aiming for the Paris Collection,

the college art student who's focused on his graduation piece,

and Momo-chan, the girl who's settled down from her plastic surgery.

Both the model and AKB girl have come to see Ma-kun as pretty cool.

But Ma-kun has decided to move on from the share house.

I'm going abroad.

-Really? -I'm going to California.

I want to tell him, "No, no, no!"

"No, I want us all to keep staying together!"

Maybe she'll go follow him all the way to California?

That's like how I feel that's going.

Also, the AKB girl had a chat with Yuko Oshima and others in the music room.

And I can't get lessons at home...

Since everyone's there.

-And so... -I see.

it's pretty hard to get around.

Yeah, it seems like it.

The AKB girl must be really swimming in her thoughts.

Thinking about whether to stay or go.

And then finally,

with the AKB girl,

he had that morning shirasu.

There's hardly anyone out there as strongly motivating as you.

It may not be mutual love,

but it's clear that those two really respect each other.

It must have been very delicious,

having freshly-caught morning shirasu.

I liked seeing that with Ma-kun and AKB girl.

And then, Tecchan's still worrying...

It's embarrassing but...

I wanted to be an actor.

He's begun describing this dream that he has had.

Tecchan will really have to work hard.

He shouldn't just keep relaxing that healthy body of his, he needs to put it to use!

Masato-kun, I bought it!

-Surfin' Life. -What, Tecchan?

Really?

Because you're all over it!

You bought it?

-I did. -This guy...

-You did an exposition, right? -Yeah, I did this time.

There was a lot about it in here.

It must be interesting,

seeing a friend in something like this.

It's amazing.

Naw, when you become an actor,

this'll be nothing in comparison.

No, no, no.

You might star in movies.

I'll have to see you on one of those big screens.

Yeah, maybe I will be on the big screen. That'd be great.

-Amazing? -That'd be amazing,

if I could.

With that in mind, how do you plan on working towards it?

When I was in high school,

I did amateur modeling.

There's someone who mentored me during that time...

What sort of person?

Oh, it was the chief editor of the magazine I was modeling for.

I'm thinking of asking him for advice.

Sounds good. At first, it's nothing but difficult things you don't understand yet.

Yeah, I'll need to work hard to support myself.

But I'm glad you're becoming like that, Tecchan.

It's already been decided,

-so things can start happening. -Yeah, definitely.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

What are you up to today, Ma-kun?

I'm going to the beach today.

-Right now? -After I eat.

Uh, could you not smirk like that?

What are you up to?

I have an audition today.

For what?

A magazine.

It's a magazine called GLITTER.

-GLITTER? -Do you know it?

-I do! -How do you know about it?

Isn't it a bunch of foreigners?

Yeah.

And this will be the first time they'll feature...

-a Japanese person. Yeah. -Seriously?

You're leaving soon,

so I figure I need to work hard too.

Okay, if you make it, please send the magazine to me in California.

Are you sure?

The issue starting from January.

All right, if I get the job.

-Good luck. -Thanks.

-Bye, I'll try my best! -Okay, good luck!

-See ya! -Yep, I'm off!

GRAFFITI MAGAZINES INC. EDITING DIVISION

Hello.

SHUNJI SUZUKI EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

Long time no see, it's been a while!

It has been a while.

Sorry for interrupting while you're busy.

There's something I wanted to discuss today.

Sure, shall we go over there to that room?

So what I wanted to discuss...

I think I mentioned before that after high school, I was thinking of entering

-a firefighter school. -Yes, yes, you said that.

But actually, before all that,

I actually had a bigger dream.

I wanted to be an actor.

Really? I had no idea.

It's a bit embarrassing...

The impetus really started here...

when you let me be in your magazine.

I know I quit once,

but I want to take a step forward in that direction again.

-That's what I'm thinking. -I see, I see.

Well...

it's quite difficult. It's not easy.

Most people aiming for that never become able...

to survive as professionals, let alone become A-listers.

Did you try thinking about that?

Despite all that,

-I strongly feel that I want to try. -Okay.

It's a harsh world.

Well, if you still want to try your best,

even after understanding this...

I've been by your side even since high school,

so I'd like to back you up...

and support you.

-Really? -Yes.

Thank you very much.

SHIBUYA, TOKYO

GLITTER MAGAZINE AUDITION

Excuse me.

Thank you for this opportunity.

The pleasure is ours.

Excuse me.

I'm Seina Shimabukuro, 25 years old. I'm from Okinawa. And...

-Thank you for your consideration. -Pleasure to meet you.

AKIKO HIRAI ASSISTANT EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

Could you tell us about your hopes with the magazine?

-My hopes? -Yes.

Well, so...

Recently, I've been... a huge fan, since she's been on Glitter's covers recently,

-of Miranda Kerr. -Yes, yes, yes.

I get a lot of inspiration in terms of fashion and beauty from your magazine,

so I would really like to appear in it as well.

-I really would. -Thank you for that answer.

Um...

So what aspects of yourself are you confident about?

My skin. I'd say, my skin.

It has a pretty smooth texture,

and it can handle pretty strong makeup.

So I think I'm well suited for beauty-related work.

Got it.

We'd like to see how your look changes with our GLITTER makeup style.

So would it be all right...

if we put makeup on you and take some photos?

Yes!

Thank you very much.

Awesome.

Nice, nice, nice.

Number 3.

Wow. Amazing! Your balance is amazing.

Okay! We're all good.

Do you have anything else this year?

Of course! All sorts of things.

I don't mean small plans. Like, any big projects.

Graduate school, my graduation project...

True.

-Oh? -Huh?

-What's up? -Hmm?

Good work today.

-Good work. -Same to you.

What's up? With that bottle out.

Here.

Thank you!

-Seina-chan? -What's up?

-You had a magazine... thing? -Yeah.

That's right. A meeting? An audition?

Well, same thing, basically. I had that.

And I really felt like I got to show myself.

I felt like I showed myself,

and there was a camera test.

So it wasn't just an interview, but I was also...

able to show how I appear on camera.

So it was great I was able to do that.

Let's have a party.

-Yeah. -If you get it.

Party? Well...

We've probably had enough parties.

I'm totally done with parties!

So done, so done!! No more, no more...

-It's still a little awkward. -Still?

-No way! -Well, not awkward, but...

Like, you're always staring at his lips?

I wanna know.

Man, oh man! Her eyes, they're intense.

They're not joking.

So you haven't stepped foot in the rec room since.

That's for certain.

-Momo-chan. -Good morning.

Good morning. What are you up to?

Umm, so...

I've recently started writing a column.

-A column? -Yeah.

I applied to all these Internet news sites.

Oh, what? So you applied,

and then what happened? Are you being published?

Yeah, it's published, and now...

-Is it online? -Yeah, it's online.

Really?

It's on a site called NETKARU.

(*a Harajuku fashionista & singer)

Look! I'm right above Kyary Pamyu Pamyu.*

Wow! That's amazing!

You're at the very top of new topics!

Yeah, just last night, they decided to publish it.

The Life of Shared Living?

Yeah.

From here... at this point here, I start writing about Terrace House.

You know how you're leaving Terrace House?

Yeah.

And with that, I started thinking about a lot of things...

-Thanks for telling me that. -...so I thought I'd try writing.

I'll bookmark it.

-And then I'll read it on my computer later. -Thank you.

I hope I can soon become good enough to work for a magazine.

Yeah, that'd be great.

I've made a good...

-first step. -First step?

First step towards something good.

Though I ended up using some difficult words.

Actually, a writer should be able to write good sentences

with words anyone can understand.

But all I can do is try to be cool using hard words.

I gotta change that.

I'm just a layman so I probably won't understand any of your stuff, then.

YUIGAHAMA, KAMAKURA

Cheers.

What are we gonna do about Christmas presents?

Oh, presents?

Or even... what should we do for the party?

Yeah, since you're leaving, too.

I want to draw something for you.

Really?

Could you draw something on my surfboard?

Yeah, totally.

-Seriously? -I will, I will.

And then, when you do tricks,

-like bam! -People will see it...

...on the bottom in photos.

Sounds great! I want to draw something, too!

What? You're going to draw on my board?

-On his board? -It's going to be all scribbles.

No, no, not at all.

By the way, Tecchan now has something he really wants to do.

What is it?

He recently told me about what he really wants to do.

Oh, yeah? What is it?

So, now...

I want to become an actor.

An actor?

-Like a star? -Yeah.

-You want to get into acting? -Yeah, into acting.

I see.

-We had no idea, right? -No, we did not.

-Yeah, I didn't say anything. -Oh, really?

So he wasn't just sleeping all morning.

Oh, really now?

-So you were just thinking? -Yeah, he was thinking.

Yeah, he was, probably.

That's great.

I'm glad. You didn't laugh at me.

I was so embarrassed. So embarassed, really.

Why? It's totally fine.

If you want to, you should do it.

He said there's no other dream greater than that.

For me, too, when I decided to go to art school,

a lot of people around me said things.

But since it's what I wanted to do,

it didn't matter what other people said.

Yeah, it doesn't matter.

Though I know it'll be very difficult.

There is nothing out there that's not difficult.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

No matter what you do, it'll be tough.

Art school is the same.

And so with that, there's also one more action I'm thinking of taking.

Huh?

What, so suddenly? It's unlike you.

Maybe I'm just riding this momentum, but...

What is it?

I'm going to invite Ricchan on another date.

-Where are you going to go? -I'm thinking of asking her.

-Kamakura. -Kamakura?

It slipped out of her tongue earlier that she wanted to go to Kamakura.

-You're really listening. -I am listening.

-You really are, Tecchan! -You really are.

I mean, it just slipped out of her tongue.

This time, you should hold her hand.

-Yup. -Like this.

-Yup. -He said, "Yup!"

Yup!

What an idiot!

Wow.

Next time, I'll...

CAPTURING THE UNSCRIPTED LIVES OF SIX BOYS & GIRLS

Shall we go for another round?

Isn't this the second or third time?

Hey, hey, hey...

so when I invite Ricchan out...

what should I say?

Hmm....

"What should I say"? You should just say it casually.

Do you think it's okay if I just go in?

In case she's changing or something, you should at least knock.

So I knock, and then I ask...?

So you knock and then ask,

"Ricchan, what are you up to?"

then just casually ask her to Kamakura.

Saying what?

-"Saying what"? -"Saying what"?

Say... Saying what? Like...

"Why don't we go on a date?"

"Let's go on a date to Kamakura."

So it's better if I say the word "date," right?

-Yeah. -Yeah.

-Be casual. -Yeah.

-Be casual and it will be okay. -Be casual...

You don't need to think too deeply about it.

How about you try saying it?

-Where do I start off? -From the knocking.

Try starting from knocking.

Knock, knock.

Yes?

Click.

-This guy! -Don't mess around!

What was that? The hell was that?

What was up with your mouth?

That's not casual at all.

"What are you up to, Rie-chan?" and then go in.

You can't just suddenly invite her like that.

Okay, okay. I see.

I know your mind might go totally blank,

but casually... Okay, just say,

"Let's go to Kamakura." That's fine.

Yeah, you can just say that.

Knock! Click.

Tecchan, you don't need to practice that anymore.

-Seriously... -Tap-tap.

If Rie-chan saw this, she definitely wouldn't go on a date.

Say, "Let's go on a Kamakura date."

Let's go on a Kamakura date.

Strongly like that?

Strongly. In a masculine way.

Yeah, strongly. More manly.

Got it. Okay.

Come on, Tecchan.

Just go and do it.

Hey, Tecchan, go for it!

-Just go for it! -Alright!

-I'm going! -Yeah!

Alright!

Alright.

Yes?

Oh!

Ricchan, you said you have some time off next week, right?

Next week?

Yeah! Tuesday and Wednesday are free.

I see.

Okay, then... on Wednesday, let's go on another date.

Oh, sure. No problem.

Okay.

Where are we going?

To Kamakura.

Oh, yeah, we didn't end up going before.

Okay, let's go on Wednesday.

Okay, Wednesday it is.

-Good night. -Good night.

How was it?

I forgot to ask what she was up to.

Huh?

I mean, that's not that important.

That doesn't matter at all.

It really doesn't... anyways, how was it?

She said yes. She'll go out with me.

-When? -Next week... on Wednesday.

That's great. As long as that's set, that's fine. You don't need to overthink

and worry about forgetting to ask what she's up to.

Ah, I forgot!

-Yay! -You did it!

Yay!

-Yay! -Tecchan, good job!

-Good job! Good job! -I did it!

-Finally. -Good job, Tecchan!

That's how I thought it'd go!

Yes!

That's great. Now I can sleep in peace. Good night.

Okay, good night.

-Good night. -You did a good job.

Good work. You did well.

Don't sleep!

CAPTURING THE UNSCRIPTED LIVES OF SIX BOYS & GIRLS

Even though it was a given.

I'm back.

-Oh, good work today. -Good work.

-You're still doing this? -Yes.

Everyone else went home.

Oh, really?

Was today also easygoing?

-What? Oh. -Work.

Oh, no, no.

Look, look, isn't that really cute?

-That's true. -That's true.

I like this.

I like this one more.

Rie-chan.

Ma-kun. Welcome home, I mean...

-I'm back. -I'm home.

Oh? Where's Mini-Buzzcut?

Oh, Tecchan's at his part-time job.

-So late. -Yeah.

That's unusual.

-Mini-Buzzcut... -Mini-Buzzcut.

I got who you meant right away.

Mini...

So, I have something to say today.

-Huh? -What?

There's something I need to tell everyone.

-What's up? -So, yeah...

I'm going to be leaving Terrace House.

For real?

When?

Probably sometime soon...

well, you know how Ma-kun is leaving?

After hearing that,

I thought a lot about my dreams...

or what will happen after this.

And I can't keep staying here forever.

So I'm thinking the Christmas party will be my last day.

I'm going to miss you.

Yeah...

I'm going to miss everyone more than I expected. Now that the words are out of my mouth.

I didn't think you'd leave too.

Next year, I want to be more serious... well, I was already serious, but...

I want to keep working very hard,

and to start thinking about my next steps.

It makes me really sad to leave, though.

It's good that Tecchan wasn't here.

Well, I'm going to also tell Tecchan myself.

So please don't say anything to him.

-No prob. -Okay.

I wanted to go on a date

with Ricchan one more time,

so I asked her.

Wow, you're doing well!

Yeah, so...

Since Ricchan said she wanted to go to Kamakura,

I thought I would take her.

So you're going to Kamakura, you're bringing her here, right?

Yeah, definitely.

-Right? Bring her over here. -Okay.

We're all really rooting for you.

We all keep telling you that.

So you want to try challenging yourself one more time?

Yes.

This time, I'll try to be behave more...

masculine.
