Due to the boom in dating apps and social media platforms over the past few years, reality shows have kind of become the ones that help us realize that what really matters is who someone is inside. The best example in terms of romantic relationships is, of course, the “Love is Blind” franchise, where the idea is to tackle the concept of whether an emotional connection can overcome physical attraction or not.
So now that its Japanese version has also been created – precisely describing how people can fall in love unseen and then make their relationship work – we know that some aspects, as well as the challenges, are universal. But if you’d like to know more about all the main couples in this wellness production, including their current status and whereabouts, as well as a bit more, we’ve got the essential details for you.
Ryotaro and Motomi: Together
From the moment they first met in the pods, there’s been an undeniable spark between Ryotaro and Motomi, which means their engagement didn’t come as a surprise. Indeed, their ability to sort out their awkwardness after a one-on-one encounter (because of her “rough” look) or their sincerity when meeting their partner’s parents hasn’t come as a shock either. . They had actually maintained a sense of appreciation as promised in the mods, so they gladly swore to each other to do so forever while also standing at the altar.
Since then, it looks like they’ve continued to grow their pairing while residing in Tokyo, proving that they first fell in love with each other’s hearts and humanity. Neither Ryotaro nor Motomi has made this part of their lives public at the time of writing, but that’s understandable given how their entire history was recently documented in the Netflix original. However, we will add that if the first is a hairdresser and fashion store manager, the second is an advertising salesman, Chinchilla mom and cooking enthusiast.
Wataru and Midori: Together
Wataru and Midori’s story is definitely one for the books because of their love triangle with Priya, followed by the latter’s apprehension about her appearance. Despite this, since he was still the same man she fell in love with inside the pods and because he worked hard to change his appearance for/with her, they still managed to make things work. His trusting nature, combined with the fact that he kept reaching out, eventually eased his uncertainty about marriage, leading to a happy ending.

Neither Wataru nor Midori stepped on each other despite what people might assume as they had an understanding that allowed them to not only set boundaries but also talk about the same. So, we’re happy to report that it looks like they’re still together, creating a new life for themselves (and Lupine the dog) in Tokyo. Wataru is not active on any social media platform but according to the latest reports he is working as a senior executive in an IT company. Coming to Midori, she was a technology consultant, but now she hopes to put new technologies in the spotlight with b8ta.
Shuntaro and Ayano: separated
Despite how Shuntaro and Ayano’s time went, surprisingly it was the former who called off their wedding in the morning because he just wasn’t ready. He admitted that he felt like he was forcing her and their relationship to be something she wasn’t, to which she replied that she was going to say no as well due to their distancing. age, as well as other differences. Honestly, it seemed bittersweet since he had never gotten straight answers, but it was for the best.
After all, although we don’t know much about Shuntaro as he doesn’t seem to have an active presence online, Ayano seems perfectly content with where she is today. Her social media indicates that while she continues to work as a corporate employee, she is also gradually dipping into the world of entertainment as a design, fashion and beauty enthusiast/influencer as well as a personality. public.
Misaki and Kaoru – Separated
Misaki and Kaoru separated for good three days before their planned wedding date due to communication issues. She could never grasp his emotions, let alone guess what he was thinking, and it made her realize she wanted more than that for her future, so she let go. Misaki joked around a lot, which meant he couldn’t dive deep into a case despite claiming to be too big of a thinker, which turned out to be the downfall of it all. But it still seemed like they had broken up amicably.
That said, other than Kaoru not following Misaki on Instagram, they also seem to be living drastically different lives right now. He is back in East Africa to resume training for the Kenyan national baseball team and serve as program director for the United Nations Support and Exchange Association. On the other hand, she is still in Tokyo, happy to continue her journey as an artist – singer-songwriter, radio personality and creative public figure.
Mizuki and Priya: separated
Since their separation during the phase of living together in “Love is Blind”, Mizuki and Priya have obviously focused on their professional lives. We can say this for sure as he has now created a “drinking pudding” ostensibly called Nomitai while still working at his friend’s restaurant. And on the other hand, Priya is currently developing her health and beauty brand Mukoomi (gender free and inclusive) while also serving as a global ambassador for Smile Asia.
“I will treasure all the times I have had with everyone who has been on the show,” Priya recently wrote on her Instagram, in part, as seen above. “Finally, I wish Mizuki the best in life, and hope he finds what he’s looking for 😉 PS Yes, I’m single and happy.”
Mori and Minami: separated
Although a lot of fans (including us) were supportive of Mori and Minami, they couldn’t resolve their differences the way they wanted and therefore chose to be happy separately rather than continuing to be weak together. This decision has worked out really well for them as they both seem more content and comfortable than ever today, especially with regards to who they are as individuals.
While Mori continues to work as a cosmetology dermatologist at the Skin Refine Clinic in Tokyo, in addition to being an entrepreneur, real estate investor, educator and dancer, Minami would always be part of the architecture industry. . Additionally, and more importantly, she is a film, travel and reading enthusiast who also has a special place in her heart for food in general.
Odacchi and Nanako: separated
The couple of Odacchi and Nanako are the most surprising to have separated, at least for us, considering how hard and quickly they fell in the pods. Yet the truth is that their reality just didn’t match what they experienced through the walls, causing Nanako to choose herself by deciding she didn’t want to pursue such a connection.
Therefore, Odacchi and Nanako appear to be single today, living their best lives in Kochi and Fukuoka, respectively. The former is one half of comedy duo Atsuka Dragon, a social media personality and local radio host, while the latter has returned to being a ballet teacher while dabbling in pilates and modeling.
Yudai and Nana: Separated
Yudai and Nana didn’t last very long because their core beliefs were drastically different from what they expected, so they broke up before either of them got too hurt. Therefore, all we can say is that the fact that the men’s hairstylist and the yoga enthusiast continue to follow each other on Instagram indicates that they are on good terms despite not being romantically involved.
