Heartbreaking seeing posts like this. I wish her fans' support could have saved her. I can't believe people can be so cruel to a person who is doing her best just to bring joy and entertainment. That's so fucked up.
Horrible.
Fucking bully bastards. Her blood is on their hands.
Poor girl. May she rest in peace.

She probably just told them she was feeling better and not to worry, then did it anyway.
Same thing happened with Etika. Depression like this isn't something that goes away
You get a bunch of people who lack empathy for other people, get them to meet other people who lack empathy, and allow them to tell themselves that their perfectly fine because they "only hate the people ruining the thing they like". They're totally not racist because they only hate the "bad" minority. If your a minority your totally welcome to their group as long as you destroy your identity to be a part of the larger group.
A person said she was fine but then followed it up by saying that Stardom was rushing to check up on her. That person has obviously deleted their tweets.
RIP Hana
Wonder how Kai is going to take all of this he was already depressed as is before the incident. Hope he doesn't do anything drastic...

Translated examples of bullying
Unfortunately, I think that was just people using poor translations because they wanted those things to be true. When I shared her concerning posts with wrestling friends I know who don't speak Japanese, they kept trying to convince me that everything was fine by showing me posts like the one by Veny.
"See, everything's fine!"
But in reality the Google auto-translate of her tweet gave a stronger impression than the actual Japanese, which just said "We had made plans to go out drinking together, so I want to believe she's okay."
For context, I just personally translated the Japanese text which Hana posted along with the self-harm images (obviously not posting the images) last night:
"I receive around 100 direct comments every day.
What hurt is that I couldn't disagree with any of them.
Die, you make me sick, go away.
I was always the one who thought those things about myself the most.
Thank you for giving birth to me, mom.
It was a life where I wanted to be loved.
Thank you to everyone who stood by me and supported me.
I love you.
I'm sorry for being weak."

If this show comes back the panel is going to have to rethink how they go about commenting on the show.
Sometimes they are ruthless and portray cast members as terrible humans. They have done this so many times and this time the price was someone's life.
I enjoy the show but it's going to be hard to support in the future. Also, fuck those cyberbullies.

My wife and I love Terrace House, but isn't the show infamous for having toxic fans on social media who bully cast members? It doesn't help that the panel and producers kind of encourage the bullying. If you watch the show you can tell when cast members are being targeted because they tend to try to lay low on the show or end up leaving. For the life of me, I don't know why they air the show while the cast is still living in the house.
I'm in shock and my girlfriend is going to be devastated when she finds out in the morning. Hana has been our favorite housemate this season, and we've really been rooting for her to get a win after her crush left and now that things seemed to be taking off with Kai (we've only seen the US Netflix released episodes so we haven't seen the incident that kicked this off yet). That poor girl. My heart goes out to her family, and to her housemates who will likely be devastated as well.
I binge-watched the latest season of Terrace House recently and I was particularly keen on her. I haven't seen but knew the latest episodes did not portray her in a positive light, so to hear this is..
Social Media, man. I work with it and I'd rather it all fuck off.

Somewhat off topic you should try using DeepL for translating japanese, it seems to be better than Google's version (which was still miles ahead of Bing)

Is Kai the same as Eden Kai from Aloha state or is it someone else?
I never watched the show, but Google tells me the Kai from Terrace House is named Kai Kobayashi. Kai is a common Japanese name.
Different Kai. Kai Kobayashi he himself said he struggles with depression. Hana and him had a huge fight on the show.
I'm not active on the TH Reddit at all, but I happened to check it out a handful of times after a recent binge, and saw a weird amount of Hana hate. "Where's that coming from?" someone asked "You'll understand when you watch the [new, Japan-exclusive episode]," someone responded.
I went the route of watching the Japan-exclusive episodes for the first time, and when I got around to that one, I was just confused. Yeah, she overreacted a bit, but so what? Even the ball busting panelists, while inserting that she wasn't entirely without blame, acknowledged it was the culmination of a lot of frustration and that she had legitimate reasons to be upset.
TH is a show I love deeply, and I had no idea there was this immense darkness residing in the fandom.
Fuck. She was so young, so cool, so warm, so talented. This is incomprehensible.
Ahh ok, sorry didn't start this new season. And now I don't know if I will after all this.
I may be misunderstanding, but I think that user knows Japanese and is saying they translated that.Somewhat off topic you should try using DeepL for translating japanese, it seems to be better than Google's version (which was still miles ahead of Bing)

Yeah, I clarified my post a bit. As I said in my original post in this thread I just woke up so I probably wasn't clear enough.

Sadly ASUKA/Veny tweeted about 9 hours ago, when people were still hoping to get someone to check on her, that:
"I don't know how much I'm going to get into, but she's a professional wrestler and I'm sure she has a lot of people who support her.
I've done what I can at this point.
We promised to go out for drinks together, so I'm sure you'll be fine."
More awful sad shit.
I'd honestly skip there's been only one good part which is Pepe his story arc is up there with the best of Terrace House. There is some really bad stuff this current season.
Horrible news about Hana. I'd fallen a bit behind with Terrace House so was planning on watching the rest of this season once it was all on Netflix but I don't think I'd be able to now.
this makes me so mad and sad. She was one of my fav members.
Judging by the show, you can tell she was a person who always had her heart on her sleeve
😢😢
RIP Queen
Fuck those who caused this. What is wrong with these people.

I can't even imagine, as someone who is also pretty sensitive, to continually receiving that type of abuse daily for months.
It breaks my heart to know she was constantly feeling that pain over and over again until she couldn't take it anymore.
I can see I wish she got the help she needed but it's never that easy and I can empathise with her situation where maybe she didn't feel like she had anywhere to turn to.
What a fucking tragedy. No other way to put it. The wrestling world is gonna be feeling this one for a long while.

Oh fuck :(
This is heartbreaking, man...
Also, Japan really needs to something about how they treat mental health problems.

This is truly awful. I hope that as a society we can find a better way to stop cyber bullying and toxic fan bases online. The show is also to blame, portraying these young adults as evil villains equivalent to characters on a scripted show. This just encourages the bullying. I feel bad for watching Terrace House. I enjoyed the panel going in on these people. I never understood how harmful that something like that is in reality.
