Good evening.

It's been getting colder these days.

The warm days will be leaving us for a while.

Both Ma-kun the surfer and AKB's Rie-chan...

are both leaving Terrace House at the same time.

-Wait, -Sho-kun...

I'm the one who wants to cry here!

Although they have only known each other for 3 months,

they really cried a lot.

Tecchan had it the worst too,

the moment he found that letter.

He really cared about Ma-kun.

But now he's gone.

It really felt like he'd come back.

They had a tearful goodbye.

So for 2013, we'll see how Terrace House will go.

New residents are going to have to come.

Actually, on our side too,

We have a new friend.

-Welcome! -Good evening!

-Long time no see! -Long time no see!

Have a seat!

Alright!

So yeah...

What's up?

Make sure you prepare yourself, Tori-chan.

-Are you watching the show? -Yeah.

So is there really no script?

Nope.

Are they really living there the whole time?

-Hard to believe right? -Yeah, I can't believe it!

How is it for you, Tori-chan, being the same generation and all?

I actually do not have a lot of love experience,

so it's pretty exciting to watch.

So right now, people are leaving one by one.

Two people left, right?

So they're going to bring in new people.

The current residents are very nice,

very mature people.

It might be interesting if someone with a strong character came in.

Yeah, like a more loud person. Or a more energetic person.

Yeah, I look forward to seeing what happens.

-Me too! -From here on out.

-Let's do this! -Yeah!

Looking forward to working together.

(ERASING RICCHAN & MA-KUN)

Wow, they really left.

Yeah.

You know, it feels weird.

Only four of us.

So weird...

I wonder what they're up to now...

Yeah, I wonder...

Their stuff is all gone.

I've slowly started to feel it.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

This house is too big for just four people.

-Yeah, it's too big. -It's so big.

So just four of us... Will they really add more people?

Yeah.

Do you think the two new people can fit in?

I guess they'll have to.

Yeah.

Right there.

A bit up.

Okay?

Hey, that's totally wrong!

What is this!?

I want to try and change a lot of things this year.

Yeah, let's make this year one of those years,

where we look back from the future and feel we did a lot.

Everyone's saying that.

And you too, Tecchan, right?

Yes, from now on.

Steadily...

There's some value to hurrying it up a little.

All you can really do is try your best at becoming an actor.

Yeah...

Your lunch breaks should really be performance practice.

I'll try my best.

I can't really help you though.

"OFF TO OSAKA! BE BACK TOMORROW NIGHT." -SHOTA

Wow, so cute, so cute!

I'm back.

Welcome back!

What are you guys up to?

We're looking at magazines.

And doing various research.

Tecchan?

What sort of person do you want to move in?

Hmm, well...

If it's a girl.

What was your type again, Tecchan?

-My type? -Serious?

Yeah.

Serious, and a very put-together girl?

And what about her looks? Her face?

Someone with sort of intense eyes.

-You like a girl with a cat-like look? -Yeah.

I see.

I wonder what sort of person will come.

Yeah...

SHIBUYA, TOKYO

It's a little sudden, but tomorrow...

I've decided to go to Terrace House.

What? Will that be okay?

Oh my God, I'm a little worried, ahhh!

It's a big deal, right!

It'd be fun to make food with everyone.

Yeah, doing our own cooking.

Like, "What should we all eat today?"

I'll show my femininity there.

Yeah, you can really cook.

What if you get a boyfriend!? OMG!

It might be because I'm a gyaru, but you know how I'm pretty aggressive?

I'll totally show that.

You know how when you're around someone you start to like them?

Like even if they're not physically your type.

When you spend time together, you start to like them.

Really quickly.

We'll all get together and watch it on Fridays.

And be like, "Wow, it's Imai-chan!"

Sunday afternoons are really nice.

-Yeah, what a nice afternoon, really quiet. -Yeah, really quiet.

Hey, the way you turn it off is really cool!

You turn it off all like "Bam!"

I feel some adrenaline rushing now.

Phew.

What is it?

What could it be?

Yes?

What is it?

Nothing's showing.

Someone must be coming.

Maybe... coming in... what?

There's a girl!

What?

Come over here!

No one's over there anymore!

-I'm surprised, I think I see a blonde or something. -I can't see very well.

Did you see her?

I really can't see.

Did you see?

Could it be... Naw.

-Really, now? -Today?

We're chatting like this on a Sunday afternoon.

It feels like we're in a talk show— Ohhh!

Hello, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Sorry to barge in. I'm Hana Imai.

Sorry.

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

-Where should I put this? -Anywhere is fine.

Don't just stand there!

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

-I'll put it here for now. -Okay!

Oh, were you eating?

-We were eating ice cream. -Ice cream?

Where's Seina?

She's in her room now.

Oh, in her room?

I'll go and get her.

Sure.

I've been watching the show.

-Nice to meet you, I'm Tetsuya. -I'm Hana, nice to meet you.

-You're 19, right? -Yeah, 19.

I'm 20.

Let's go eat sometime.

I look forward to it.

-Nice to meet you. I'm Hana Imai. -Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you. I'm Seina Shimabukuro.

You're cute!

-What do you do? -Well...

I'm a model for a gyaru magazine.

Which magazine?

Egg magazine.

That's what I'm up to these days.

I see...

Sorry, I'm just a little surprised.

Sorry, I'm so loud. This is how I am.

-No worries. -Is it okay?

It's okay!

No worries.

You're so young!

I feel your power.

I want you to share it with us girls.

Wasn't it pretty far?

I was surprised, there's nothing around here.

You can't even walk to any convenience stores.

-You take the car? -Yeah.

I see.

Do you have a boyfriend?

I don't. I haven't had one for half a year.

What sort of guy is your type?

I like the type that's hard to read.

I haven't really had any good relationships til now.

Only the type where everyone's like, "Break up already!"

I've always had relationships like that.

-Like you go for bad boys? -Yeah.

I end up going for bad boys.

I get where you're coming from.

-Really? -Yeah, I totally get it.

I feel like maybe my motherly instincts are too strong.

That's hilarious. Even at your age?

But yeah, I really wanna do anything I can for them.

-So you're like the giving type? -Yeah.

I understand.

It's bad but I want to do anything I can for them.

That's all I've experienced in love.

Tecchan, why aren't you saying anything?

I'm totally talking!

This is you talking?

I see...

-Shall I give you a tour? -Sure.

-Is it okay if I leave my luggage? -Sure.

Wow, it's cute!

Wow!

-So this is how it is. -Sorry, it's so messy.

This place really feels lived in.

There's not a lot going on but still.

The dresser is cute!

It looks like a makeup room.

Where do you buy your clothes?

My clothes?

ZARA, and 109,

TOPSHOP,

and also H&M, Forever 21... I love those sorts of places.

Do you have anything tomorrow?

I'm going into the city. The day after too.

I see.

My coming-of-age celebration is coming up soon.

Oh really?

It'll be on the 13th.

That's right!

So I'll have to be doing lots of "maintenance."

Maintenance!?

Like spa, spa, spa...

Should we go out for dinner... tonight?

You guys don't cook?

Yeah, we don't cook much, we eat out a lot.

-Then let's cook today! -Really?

Like Japanese food... something boiled.

I suddenly want to eat niku-jyaga*.

(*MEAT & POTATOES)

Okay, let's eat it.

Alright, shall we do niku-jyaga?

Niku-jyaga it is.

-Tecchan, we're going to make niku-jyaga! -Okay.

He seems like he goes along with anything.

Do you ever say what you want?

Like, "I don't want to eat it."

Totally.

-Alright, so today is Japanese food. -Okay.

-Let's go! -Okay, we'll be back.

Thank you!

-We're off! -Take care!

Are you bringing a jacket?

Yup, I am.

A girl like that's like, "Let's make some Japanese food."

-Yeah, isn't it crazy? -It's so different from how she looks.

Yeah.

So cold...

-Is the supermarket close by? -It's close.

-Really? -Yeah.

Good.

-Are you all living a normal life? -Yup.

Are you used to it already?

-Yup. -Wow, even after three months.

How long did it take to get used to things?

Actually, just about a week.

Like in the beginning, I just spoke formally all the time,

but after living together for a bit, it just got like...

Yeah, I was wondering at what point I should start speaking informally.

-Let's start now. -Okay! I'll start okay?

I'm gonna get really rough though.

-Seriously. -Okay.

-Hana-chan... -She's young, isn't she?

But I guess she's just a year younger than you, Momo, right?

Yeah, one year younger.

I want to be like that too.

Like "I'm so good at cooking~"

Yeah I know, all blonde and then like, "I'm good at cooking!"

-Likability... -Up, up.

The up-up strategy.

Because it's sorta annoying to clean up I actually wanted to eat out.

Yeah, me too.

I feel like Seina-san and I will probably get along well.

She was more chill than I expected, already like an adult.

Yeah, really grown up.

Do you get like that once you're 25?

Do you get like that? It's kind of scary.

So for real, do you feel like you can keep up with her?

Huh?

Like, do you ever think, "Ahh, I'm too young."

As of right now, I'm sort of worried about that.

From now on, we will all eat and drink together.

It would be nice if we can all open up.

-Seems pretty dead inside. -Okay.

You're gonna take the cart.

Women shouldn't have to carry this.

-Let's go. -I'll totally carry it.

Will everything fit? Let's get two.

I dunno, maybe we might buy wine or something.

For Seina-san. Let's go.

-Niku-jyaga, right? -Yeah.

So for niku-jyaga,

that means daikon.

Let's buy two of these.

They have it!

You guys don't have olive oil, right?

-I guess that's good. -Okay.

Really from now on, let's all cook ourselves.

Let's all change, for everyone's sake, how we deal with food.

-We're back. -Welcome back!

Thank you! It was cold, wasn't it?

It's cold.

How was it? Was it fun going out together?

We became super close.

Tecchan, you're so pure!

Alright...

-You're good with your hands. -Really?

Wanna drink something?

-I'll have some wine. -Okay!

Here you go.

Nice to meet you all, I look forward to living together!

Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you!

-The way she uses her hands is so different. -I know, right.

Wow.

Did you see that? Did you see that??

Oh, an avocado.

Avocados taste best just on their own.

Right?

Like just mix in a little bit of cream cheese.

It's fun to cook.

But it takes so long. The waiting time sucks.

But you're doing such a great job.

-Really? -Yeah, before, it would take longer.

-No way. -Yeah.

Since nobody was good at cooking.

For now, let's first eat this.

-Wow, it looks really good! -Really good!

Wow, it looks really good!

It's so pretty, wow.

Yum!

The fact that you can make drinking snacks is amazing.

-Even to match wine. -It's really stylish.

Are you good at cleaning too??

Like, do you like cleaning and organizing?

Yeah, I'd say I do.

This house gets dirty so quickly.

-Really? -Yeah.

What, does no one here care about cleanliness?

I care about it.

I like cleanliness,

-I just don't know how to do it. -How to do it?

I just get lost wondering, "How do I do this?"

"Ahh, so messy, what do I do?"

You just have to do it, that's all there is.

If you don't act, nothing will happen.

I see.

Wow, you must have been brought up well by your mom.

-I'm not sure... -I think so...

You definitely have a good upbringing.

Alright, it seems ready.

Tecchan, cut some scallions.

How many?

I think two should be good.

It tastes better with lots of vegetables.

What type of guy is your type?

All the guys I've dated look different.

Yeah, once you like a guy it doesn't really matter.

I agree. Though now if I think back on my past,

it's mostly started from love at first sight.

What do you fall in love with?

Face, vibe, behavior... that sort of thing.

But it's all just how it feels.

For me, I think I've actually never had love at first sight.

-Really? -Never.

I see.

So this is just your pre-disposition to romance.

I don't really know people around me like that.

There aren't any?

-Is it fun? -It's really fun!

-That was really convincing actually. -It's seriously fun!

It does seem really fun.

I apologize if the niku-jyaga is a little weak.

No worries! It's all right.

Let's eat! Bon appétit!

Bon appétit!

Hot, hot, hot!

Wow, it's good!

It's good.

-Yum, yum, yum. -The meat is so tasty!

Wow, it's really good.

Glad to hear that.

It's really amazing.

Yeah...

Today was such a happy day.

-Yeah, it was a nice day. -Sho-kun!

You finally came back.

Nice to meet you.

-That's right! -Huh?

Oh yeah, let me introduce you.

I'm Hana Imai and I'll be living here starting today.

-Hana, Hana! -Hana-chan?

Starting today?

I popped in here today around lunch.

-I'll be living here starting today. -Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you!

Sho-kun, where were you off loitering around?

-I was in Kansai... -What were you doing in Kansai?

I was really worried about you.

You were in Kansai today?

Yup, actually since yesterday, I think?

What were you doing there?

Well... I was with my girlfriend...

Uh oh, that sort of thing?

With my girlfriend...

-Is this something super serious? -No, not at all.

-So I asked my girlfriend... -Yeah...

"Will you marry me?"

-Basically. -Seriously?

-So I went to go do that. -I see.

We still don't know when the wedding will happen though.

So she already said yes?

-Wow! -Great!

-Congratulations! -Hey, hey, hey, hey, Sho-kun!

So wedding sake...

There's one more thing I need to tell you guys.

I'm going to be leaving Terrace House.
