Life on Netflix’s Terrace House Reality Show - (Ft. Eden Kai) Off The Pill Podcast #39

[@EdenKaiOfficial]

Hey Ryan, David, Paco! Thank you so much guys for having me on the podcast...!! So honored & Blessed...! It has been one of my dreams to be a part of it😭 (Hopefully I wasn’t acting too nervous haha). Appreciated the real & deep conversation. I’ll keep pushing and pushing until I get there. Much love, blessings from Yusuke!

[@dreanee]

Hi, Eden! Love your personality in Terrace House and here in the podcast. Thank you for coming to the show with Ryan and for sharing all your thoughts with us. I'd love to see one of your shows one day because your music and voice sound so good. Keep up the good work and ignore the haters. You're awesome. Greetings from Lima, Peru :)

also he's not too nice, he's just the right amount of nice I wish more people were like him tbh

[@beatm6948]

I think you mean it's genuine, and it feels real, like he's not doing with ulterior motive. Cause for me, I don't think someone can be too nice, and usually there's an uneasy thing because it's not genuine

[@lionelsmith9231]

hearing his comments on how he was bullied, After the Death of Hana is super depressing because the signs are there and online bullying is such a huge thing for Japanese culture.

[@zettt6001]

Yeah, it hit me hard when they started talking about the suicide rate in Japan and how restricted they were.

[@starkju]

It's so strange to me that he was rejected that many times, 'cause he's totally my type both in appearance and in what I got to see of his great and unique personality. You go Yusuke!

[@harleyslie666]

I would totally date him too for the same reasons.

[@giuliab8484]

He's one of the only guys on terrace house who had such a great personality

[@LateFiddle392]

What I appreciate about Terrace House is the little daily life of another culture. I'm third generation Japanese American my family cultural standpoints are from decades ago. So it's fun to watch with my family about how different generations act. Aloha State is my favourite season so glad to see Eden Kai on the program!

He's a very likeable person. A little reserved (I believe that was the word Ryan was looking for?) but very genuine and sweet. And talented.

[@whatevereyewant]

The eternally friendzoned guy on the show

I think "friendzoned" guy is a good catch. A woman who mirrors his personality & is truly genuine from her heart & mind would be his best match.

I like Terrace House because these are passionate, competitive, smart people on the show. Eden is a really bright talented guy and what made it sad was no one really got that on the show. The girls did not look past his super cute face and it was their loss.

[@Emilio-gk5nr]

Ryan: "I know you can't talk about it, but....."

[@Simplesstff]

Because Ryan is a nice guy too so he doesn't want Eden to get into trouble either

[@johnkimx83]

Terrace House is popular not because it's "Japanese culture". Terrace House is popular because it is entirely mundane, and mundane is extremely relatable. We get up, go to work/school, come home, figure out what to eat for dinner, kill time, go to bed, and repeat, just all the six housemates do. When we see a housemate over-analyze an interaction with a housemate, or struggle with work or school, or struggle with the "does she?" or "does she not?", we empathize completely because we all go through the same things. The show - for the most part - is bland, and bland we understand. It's just shot and edited very elegantly and the soundtrack is really chic. On the flipside, Western reality TV shows are edited to emphasize the aggressive hyper-sexual and violent plots. We can't keep our eyes off of it, just like we can't avoid slowing down to see a car accident on the freeway.

[@jaeeji2944]

I started watching terrace house a while back. I didn’t think it was actually this popular 😂

[@ilikerice5208]

Yea! I heard about it once, but the moment you look, you realise it has a huge following

[@ehick7821]

White woman in Canada here! Found out about the show from a friend from Japan. She and her Canadian husband got me watching it in the summer. I love watching the conversations about goals and dreams. It’s so different than US shows, which are largely terrible. And I love the commentators, especially Tokui 🥰 It’s been good to understand more about Japanese culture too. Yusuke, you will find your person! Don’t settle for anyone who isn’t totally in love with you. You have so much to offer! Thank you for your incredible music!! 💜

[@monicas2461]

His talking voice is so soothing. I love it!

[@naemi37]

as Japanese and watching Terrace House, I really enjoyed this one!

[@aZnLy96]

HE USED THE WORD "SUGGESTIONS" INSTEAD OF NEGATIVE/HATE COMMENTS such an angel, really. you're such a sweetheart, i love your music and your voice. wish you all the best!

[@aZnLy96]

i also love how he apologised saying he got too deep, and ryan and everyone immediately where like no! which goes back into the asian culture where it isnt very common to express yourself like that, thats why i like the instant encouragement of the others. :)

[@aZnLy96]

i love fireworks too, i would go alone anytime. just sucks that you had to be filmed. wouldve went with you. i just missed one yesterday. actually i heard it from home, and often times when i hear fireworks from home i get dressed and run out to see it but a friend who didnt like fireworks was with me so i didnt, and i regretted it. its painful to hear fireworks close by without going 😂😅 i'm commenting as im listening btw lol *

How can people badmouth him ? He is so pure, nice, friendly, sweet, smart and cute. I mean... Every time I see him on screen I want to cheer him up and reassure him, encourage him about his work. He deserves kindness and happiness.

[@shan7943]

i’m happy for eden’s personal growth. his presence on TH was so refreshing and i was rooting for him as far as being himself in the house. hoping he’s able to better express himself more with time. it seems like he’s trying to be a crowd pleaser.. even with music. express yourself more! even the negative feelings of disappointment and rejection! do music for yourself and not just for other people’s happiness too.

[@KP-dt9ol]

I love him! He was so sweet on the show and seems the same outside. I’m black and just really like watching different cultures.

[@aethyrial3856]

50% of this video was just Eden not being able to talk about something

My friend whom worked in Japan for a few years told me about it 2 years ago and how it was popular in Japan. She convinced me to watch it with her and I've been an avid fan since and have been spreading the word to others! It's such a soothing, funny, and intriguing show! :)

[@peonies-]

Aaah I loved him on the show, and was so happy he popped up again in this season. I still feel bad for him though, with his unsuccessfulness with girls😅. He seems like such a good person. (hi from a terrace house fan from The Netherlands)

[@muzhexclusive]

LOOOL! Lauren Tsai made a comment: “Everything is fake” and they didn’t edit it out. Everything’s on Reddit.

[@OneRadicalDreamer]

I think the difference is that she separated herself from the show, Yusuke still eating off the palm of their hands.

[@alee7672]

We’ve watched all the Netflix episodes and LOVE Kai. We are Chinese Americans (born and raised) in our 40s and 50s from Houston, Texas and we love watching the show -they could be our kids... in fact, we have a 20 year old daughter! I think we understand the culture, the subtext and love seeing these guys grow, change and fall in love. Good luck in love, Eden! You’re a catch!

[@あまぐ-c6h]

I legit shouted when I saw Eden Kai in the thumbnail! Aloha State was the only Terrace House show I actually watched and enjoyed and I really liked Eden...

[@aznsugarg]

For some odd reason, this popped up on my suggested list, but watched Aloha State several years ago...Eden shows up more confident in this podcast than on the show! Could be the English or could be the age. Glad he's showing more confidence and still doing his thing--such a sweetheart! And his ukelele skills are amazing!!

[@rooowtwx]

Like Ryan said, he's not "too nice" but he is very nice which is good. And the fact that he'd go and eat because he's already made the reservations and go see the fireworks because it's one of the biggest firework festival... that's some real goals! it's not easy to be yourself in this world and more so on TV. Rooting for Eden Kai! He'll definitely meet someone who is perfect for him.

My girlfriend (white) and I (half white, half Latino) love watching Terrace House! To be fair, we were introduced by a friend who is Japanese, but it’s grown to be one of our favorite shows. I like how calm it is, how many connections you form with the house members over time, and how realistic it feels. Great show.

[@danielspicher3197]

To be an answer to the "group of white people who watch Terrace House" question - I absolutely love Terrace House. I've been watching it since its initial air on US Netflix with Boys and Girls in the City. I've been doing everything I can to get the previous seasons, and find out more about the show and its concepts. It's such an honest view into Japanese culture and interpersonal relationships. And as someone who has been studying Japanese independently for quite some time, it's an amazing piece of content. The commentary also adds that element of interpretation that I as an American can compare my own emotional/situational understanding and assumptions to. Yusuke is also a great human being, and it had to be pretty hard...but he's so motivated and inspirational. Definitely one of my favorite cast members of Aloha State, and was great to see him in the latest season!

It’s also cool to understand everyone’s different personalities and vibes. It’s funny too I’ve laughed quite a bit at what people in the show do and the commentators.
