[COSTCO SUBS PRESENTS]
[Previously unaired footage]
-We made dinner for everyone. -Really? I'm glad.
What's up? You don't look too happy though.
-Well... today... -What's wrong?
On my way home... I happened to see...
-Were you googling yourself? -No! I wasn't.
I've deleted the Twitter app, in the first place.
I didn't google myself, but I casually looked over comments on Yama-channel.
It was crazy.
Were the comments positive?
-I was so shocked by what I read! -Were they coming for you?
I realized I took the wrong train.
And I was like, "Oh, no! I can't get home."
-I was surprised at myself! -Were you okay?
-You shouldn't read comments. -That's right.
They pointed out you wear the hat indoors, right?
Right! But, look at this!
I didn't want to be seen like this on the first day!
-Careful, they might make more comments now. / -Yeah.
I'm like... really...
-They could make fun of the hat hair. -Did you look through the comments?
Hmm, I looked at them on the train...
I couldn't stop reading...
You miss your station when you focus on something.
Were you hurt?
I wouldn't say I was hurt... I mean, I was prepared.
In particular, I knew Yamachan would attack us.
He's really harsh.
Since I'm very shy around new people,
I thought I was used to being told I have a bad personality.
But I realized I made many people think like that.
I'm just... how should I put it...
Well, it might've upset me a bit.
I'm scared!
I always think...
they don't know you at all.
You-- you're right...
People who don't know you just think this and that.
It doesn't matter. They don't know anything about you.
What's more, what they say isn't true.
I saw this coming.
I thought I was emotionally prepared for people's negative opinions.
-It became a reality. -I'm facing the issue now, oh no...!
Only you guys can relate to this,
so I wanted to see you all as soon as possible.
-Oh no, I'm going to cry. -It's ok, go ahead and cry.
No, it'd be uncool if I cry because of this.
Why? That's not uncool.
It's like... Ah, I'm tearing up.
-It's ok to cry. -I've been feeling vulnerable since yesterday.
Here you are.
Come to think of it, they're so annoying, right?
They just comment online without showing their faces or giving their names.
Right... I thought I understood that, but...
Did you feel offended?
What? No, not at all-- It's like...
Some people are quick to assume that people they don't know well are incompatible with them.
I don't want to be judged too quickly, so I don't do that to others as a rule.
So I was amazed, "What a channel Yamachan has!"
while I was watching YouTube.
Like, "Emika must have been a bully."
I was like "Wow!" I have been bullied before, but I never bullied anyone!
So... I think I was shocked.
I shouldn't have done it. Why did I look...
Maybe you were worried about what other people think of you.
Well, it's fine as long as you don't look.
-But you can't help but look at it again... -When the next episode airs.
That's crazy. They'll probably criticize Ryo and me, too.
But I'm excited!
But both of us are dissed because of our occupations.
When we lose, some people say like, "You're shit!"
So we eventually stop looking at it.
If that would have a bad effect on your performance,
-that'd be the worst. -You're right.
So I avoid those harmful things as much as possible.
Everyone has first impressions of others.
Of course, I had a first impression of you too.
If you can simply be yourself from now on,
viewers will see what you are really like.
-It depends on how you act. -That's true.
So I don't want you to be hurt--
I mean, I hope you don't feel down because of googling yourself.
-I don't want you to waste your time. -I just happened to see the comments on YouTube.
What possessed you to check YouTube?
I wanted to watch our entrance interviews.
I thought, "It's so dumb. What the hell are these?" "You just say whatever you like!"
You mean yourself?
I mean, that's what I want to say to the people who wrote the comments.
Some people praise you, but some people diss you.
-It's not that I want to be praised. -Yeah, of course.
The internet and social media have a big impact on society these days.
It's like... What should I say...
I'm not nervous around you guys anymore.
But I can't completely show my true self yet.
It took me a month to start to open up.
So now I have to see negative comments about my personality for the next month.
I feel...
I'm frightened.
For me, the saddest thing would be if nobody were to notice me.
Me too.
So I'm glad to hear both good things and bad things.
If you didn't appear on this show, you wouldn't be noticed at all. Sorry if that sounds rude.
Nobody would remember you.
But I think...
if I aspired to work in the entertainment industry...
You could take advantage of the opportunity?
Right! But that's not my goal.
I wonder if I made the wrong choice...
No, no...
I'm worried about it-- but I'm having fun.
I'm glad that I met you guys... but--
-I'm anxious about my future. -It'll be okay.
People online just diss whoever.
I've been worried.
They criticize everybody.
Nitpickers find fault with everything,
but they're actually dissatisfied with themselves.
You're so cool.
They're pitiful, right?
I don't care about what haters say these days.
I remember you saying that.
They are crazy.
I don't want to think like this, but...
They're gross!
I think that's fine.
You can think "You're gross," "Die!"
or "You piece of shit!"
It's a waste of your limited time to think of anonymous people who say negative things.
I'm the type of person who cares about what others think.
Just think about it,
do you want to be praised by millions of people?
-No, I don't need that. -Right? Then no problem.
If people around you point out your bad habit--
I was sorry about not taking off my hat indoors.
-But people around you don't care about it. -That's fine.
We don't care about it.
You'll get used to the comments.
If you don't checked them, you won't care.
