Robyn Bahr The Hollywood Reporter 10/31/2019
There are arguments to be made here about queer minstrelsy, conspicuous consumerism, the scripted nature of reality TV... But the mission is so humane, I practically demand they jerk these tears right out of my face. Go to Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 10/30/2019
From the moment the Fab Five touch down in Tokyo, it's clear their particular set of skills can change lives for the better pretty much anywhere at all. Go to Full Review Swara Salih But Why Tho? A Geek Community 01/22/2023
8/10
If you liked past seasons of Queer Eye, you’ll love Queer Eye: We’re in Japan!. The Fab Five are their silly and enthusiastic selves all the while being sure to listen to the concerns of the people they’re helping and bringing out the best in them. Go to Full Review Michael Cuby them. 10/12/2022
The location switch-up serves as a much-needed refresher for the show after four seasons over the past year and a half — these four episodes are a great addition to the ever-increasing Queer Eye library. Go to Full Review Steve Murray ArtsATL 11/15/2019
I'm still partial to the Georgia-shot episodes, but this travelogue featuring the Fab Five is delightful in the familiar ways. Go to Full Review Brett White Decider 11/01/2019
Not only a fun watch, but the kind of earnest and respectful cultural exchange you don't get enough of on TV. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

03/31/2021 Terrible. No attempt made to understand the culture of Japan. Spent each episode reinforcing stereotypes and pushing western ideals. See more 07/26/2020 Needs more episodes! See more 06/17/2020 I love queer eye but hated queer eye Japan! They seemed to make no effort to understand the people and how different their world is. Also, the addition of a straight woman to their team was strange. See more Josh G @Ace2727 06/12/2020 I was balling on every episode. Beautiful stories and amazing people; I absolutely loved every minute of it. See more 11/16/2019 an incredible lack of cultural awareness. See more 11/11/2019 This should really be an anime lmao The cast members are so likable! Kiko pls marry me See more Read all reviews
