A reality show that didn't work for me

I really liked the first members, although I disliked the one who was dedicated to baseball because he was quite controlling. Even though the original members left, I kept watching this for Uchi and Minori to see how things were going. I knew that there was a big personality problem between them because Minori did not behave like a girlfriend and is a person who tends to wait for what she feels, which was the complete opposite of Uchi, who was a direct person and sometimes does not mediate with the things I did or said but in the end I continued to support them.

I was a little surprised that Minori got married but I understand it because their personalities didn't match at all and it seemed like neither of them were willing to change something about the other so that the relationship would improve. Although I'm happy that Minori found a person who suits her and Uchi continues working on his thing.

After they left, the changes were very erratic. People were constantly coming and going. I understand that it is because they wanted, let's say, there to be a happy ending not only with a couple, but that people constantly coming in and out meant that I couldn't connect with any of the participants, as I had connected with the original members.

49 episodes seemed too long and it was boring, honestly. At one point I got fed up because it was getting more and more boring and I ended up skipping almost every chapter.

In conclusion, there only ended up being four couples, the rest I don't know if they are still together because I wasn't interested at all. But honestly speaking, at first it was fun to see how totally different people live together and how there can be arguments and that everything will be resolved with a talk together but then, as I said, it became monotonous seeing how people came and went, in the end you can't create a real connection with any of the participants.

I think there was a bad casting choice and that's why it failed. I think even though it was fun, and the commentators made things funnier, it didn't work for me this season.

I think I'll stop here with this reality show. There are too many chapters and I don't like it when I can't connect with any participant.
