Ruka Nishiniro and Haruka Okuyama were not the only housemates that exited 'Terrace House: Tokyo 2019-2020' in Part 3. Giuseppe 'Peppe' Durato also bid adieu to the beautiful house and his fellow housemates - Ryo Tawatari, Hana Kimura and Emika Mizukoshi. 

The Italian comic writer had arrived in Japan with one dream - to become a published manga artist and the viewers saw him working very hard on his soon to be published rom-com manga comic that was loosely based on his life, in part 2 of the show.

In the current season, Peppe is really excited that his book release is just days away. He mentioned that the comic will be released nationally and will be available in convenience stores as well and he was very excited about this. 

It's finally the day of the release and Peppe walked up to the nearest convenience store and he picked up multiple copies for himself. He gets highly sentimental that his book has released nationally and happy tears rolled down his cheeks. He had a very sweet exchange with the old and sweet store lady who promised she would recommend the book to everyone who comes to the store. 

Back at the house, he's seen speaking with his housemates Emika and Hana about the book. The ladies tell him that they couldn't get their hands on the book and he promised to get them one. Ryo walked in at the same time with three copies of the comic and they all reveled in Peppe's happy moment.

However, the happiness was followed by serious news.  Peppe invited everyone to the kitchen to taste the tiramisu he had prepared specially for them. He later told his housemates that he also will be leaving the Terrace House. On being asked where the sudden decision is coming from, the artist mentioned that it's known to everyone that he's very busy and he foresees an even busier future. He mentioned that it's for the best since they will not get enough time to hang out at all. 

On Peppe's final night in the house, Ryo confessed that he considers him his best friend. Peppe hugged him and asked to be excused for showing no emotion because he is just very busy and that's the reason he's quitting the house. The next morning he bids goodbye to the house and now it's just Ryo, Hana and Emika that remain on the show. 

'Terrace House: Tokyo 2019-2020' Part 3 is now streaming on Netflix.
