Watch the emotional new trailer for Queer Eye’s Tokyo edition

Say konichiwa to the Fab Five

This is not a drill: the new trailer for Queer Eye has just dropped. The Fab Five are back and this time they head to Tokyo to transform four new heroes, sharing their ethos of inclusivity and self-care.

For the show’s Tokyo edition, Jonathan, Tan, Karamo, Bobby, and Antoni are navigating the capital with their guide, actress and singer Kiko Mizuhara, and a guest appearance from comedian Naomi Watanabe.

The trailer reveals snippets from the upcoming series, promising plenty of sake, sushi, sequins, and sass, and teases the show’s trademark emotional and physical transformations, warning us there will be a lot of tears. The team gets back as much as they give as they learn new customs and traditions from the heroes. Expect cooking (and feeding), flower arranging, and a quite literal kickass demonstration from a female karate champ.

This reboot of acclaimed early 00s series has amassed a cult following, winning three Emmys in 2018. The new season will be released November 1, but in the meantime, check out the trailer for yourself below.
