Offline Love

Terrace house fans should really check this out

if you missed Terrace House this will be perfect for you - the vibe, editing, style, the characters, the commentators - everything about it reminds me of Terrace House.

You will fall in love with some characters, and you will definitely hate some of them.

In some ways this is a more 'refined' & 'fulfilling' show minus the unnecessary nonsense & drama in Terrace House. 10 episode feels just nice - and complete.

I really hope they have a season 2.

One of the best reality tv show out there, and definitely better n more REAL than other average reality dating shows.

10 strangers on a foreign land in the city of nice, france. The characters are well oriented and if u want a real reality about knowing each other for 10days it is not enough but with out using mobile phones it will really make them intimate on each other but the catch is this, most of them are actors & model some have well established career but their main goal I think is about exposure. All of them didn't end up continuing their relationship after the show which only means that they were just there for exposure nonetheless they just went becoming friends. It feels like scripted but maybe 50% of it was they know that participating into a dating show would just exposed them more to be popular because they were just actor/model and social media influencers.

I cannot believe how deeply this show touched me. I'm not one to write reviews but I feel a responsibility to do so because of how beautiful I believe this series to be. The idea of Offline Love is that the people in the show find each other without their phones or any other devices, going on dates and writing letters to each other. They only spend 10 days in the same city, which makes their time even more valuable. This format truly brings out the best interactions and forces the participants to be braver, more human, and more intentional. I don't know if this is particular to Japanese culture, but the level of politeness, respect, and the lack of drama between people dating each other and between potential rivals is a true breath of fresh air in reality tv. The commentary in between is also extremely entertaining and warm, it feels like you're watching the show with good friends who want the best for the people involved in the show. Having to watch Offline Love with subtitles also forces the viewer, in case they don't speak Japanese, to pay attention to every line. This personally made me enjoy it more deeply and it made me feel a lot more present than if I would scroll my phone while passively watching. The people on the show are extremely kind, open, and compassionate, and their love stories are complex, dramatically beautiful, and painfully real in the best possible way. I also think the men deserve a shoutout for being softer, more honest, and kinder than what many of us are used to in not only tv, but also in every day life. I think this series shows us that an offline love is still very much possible in a modern world, and it provides young people with a great example of how to approach dating and friendship. I hope there will be many seasons to come, and I thank the creators of this show for an absolute masterpiece. Arigato.

I super loved this show, I am glad that netflix produce another Japanese Reality TV show similar to Terrace House vibe. I love Terrace house so much but unfortunately they stopped producing, but with Offline Love? I freaking love it so much that the vibe is there, the comedian commentators, the city of Nice, the real feelings, and real scenario, like It's sooo good! I really love it! I really can't express enough how I like it.

I never expected that I would cry with this show, and I laughed so hard with the scenes, and cringiness of the cast, like the feelings are so real, like i don't know.. And the twist.. Like after watching this, I also realize that FATE might be real. And also, If the person really likes you, they will always choose you even they have met and talked to other person. Like there will be a person for you, and let just FATE do its magic.

PLEASE WATCH THIS SHOW, so you'll know what i am saying!

Oh how I love this show! Please have Season 2 please! My sister and I watch the show on Neflix and agree that it is the most thumbs up dating show among all those we have seen. This show is enjoyable as it have beautiful scenery, foods, relaxing vibe, with fate bringing participants together. It is more natural and real, while I love that the show's three hosts' comments are on point, decent, interesting, funny and add a colour to the show! The first show that I really feel lovely to watch, as it allows participants to walk around a city, with many travelling included, too fun to watch! Another important thing to say is that this show has selected participants with high quality and background, with pretty and handsome looks, unlike some other shows that I don't feel like watching for real. I love love love this show. Please do have Season 2, I'll be waiting!
