"I didnt know about Hana& #39;s race. Therefore her marginalized identity didn& #39;t affect her at all."
Uh, she reveals her mixed roots in the first episode and mentions it occasionally. The bullies were from the audience of the reality show she was on, not the pro-wrestling community.

It& #39;s funny how some dismiss that it could have possibly contributed to the cyberbullying.
The criticism I got for pointing it out were from folks who admitted that they didn& #39;t even watch Terrace House in the first place.
If they didn& #39;t watch the show, they couldn& #39;t have known.

I& #39;m open to constructive criticism, but it& #39;s impossible to have any weight in your argument if you never actually watched the show and claim that most of these cyberbullies "didn& #39;t know".
Of course they knew. They watched the show every week like everyone else.

Cyberbullies are more calculative and manipulative than what people might think. It& #39;s not an aimless target.
They watch the show and send hate after episodes were aired every week in Japan.
In one of Hana& #39;s final Instagram stories, she shared a post that she was tagged in.

The user tagged her username on his TV, and took a picture of that TV featuring Hana at the end of the episode. He told her that she was gross and that she should disappear.
These cyberbullies will monitor everything that you do and weaponize their negativity to kill you.

And this isn& #39;t even exclusive to Terrace House. YouTubers and online influencers get cyberbullied everyday. In some cases, it would escalate to doxxing and stalking.
With Terrace House, the viewers were more of a niche online community (although they have many viewers in Japan).

It& #39;s sad how it got pretty toxic. The other TH members were told similar things.
In the last episode that was aired in Japan, there is a scene where they watch a TH episode together.
Shacho sees comments about him online and there& #39;s so much hurt & pain in his face.

If Shacho is visibly hurt by these comments, I can only imagine how Hana had felt, being attacked by hundreds of people a day.
There is a difference between legitimate constructive criticism and telling someone that they should die.

TH viewers outside of Japan:
This is on top of Hana being socially isolated for about a month. Since April, they stopped filming the show and she was no longer having matches due to COVID-19.

In one of the last livestreams she was in with STARDOM, she revealed that she lost a big chunk of her income because of the cancellations. She appeared in a few livestreams and accepted donations.
In the episode that got the most negative responses, you could also tell she was stressed out from work when she got angry at her housemate for accidentally ruining her costume. She explained that it wasn& #39;t "just a costume". It was custom-made & she won a significant match in it.
Most people in the pro-wrestling community understand why she was upset over her costume being ruined. Even if you weren& #39;t familiar with wrestling, she thoroughly explains it to her housemates.
But many members of the Terrace House fandom trivialized her on-screen anger online.

Hana said that she came on Terrace House to get people interested in women& #39;s pro-wrestling. She also wanted to find love like any other typical 20-something. She didn& #39;t have much luck on her dates with the members and expressed her insecurities.
She& #39;d also get attacked for it.

In her final posts, she expressed that she wanted to be loved. She wanted to be lovable. Hana wanted to disappear be because she didn& #39;t really feel accepted or loved.
Many people online (and probably offline) managed to convince this beautiful woman that she was unlovable.
