Has anyone watched any season of this show?? I just started watching the most recent season (OND) on Friday and I am OBSESSED! It is a Japanese reality show (there are subtitles for this season or I would not be able to watch, I only know hello and thank you!) in the vein of Real World but way less trashy. 6 people living in a house. They can come and go as they please (for work or in many cases dates) I'm getting the gist many ladies come to the show to find love. Some of the houseguests don't stay, and if they leave they are replaced with new members. I haven't caught up to current (I think new episodes drop every week), there are 28 episodes so far. Another thing different is every now and then they show a panel of 6 other people watching what the show and commenting on it (sort of People's Couch style). Ive grown as fond of them as I have of the housemates. I am learning so much about Japanese culture and seeing a beautiful part of Japan!

YES!!!! I LOVE this show! I've seen 1 and 2 and in the middle of this one. No one I know has watched it or even heard of it and when I describe it to them they think I'm crazy.
Love the food on the show. And I've picked up some Japanese.
In this season I love the young women who plays hockey.

It's so good! AmyKay is right, like Real World but super polite where people talk about their goals and promise each other that they will 'work hard'. It's a wonderful insight into Japanese culture. For example, it's a big deal to hold hands with someone if you aren't boyfriend and girlfriend. That's as scandalous as it gets.
