From what I've come to learn, everything on Japan TV is real, and unscripted, the only exception would be the parodies and the kabuki plays (anime not included); they pride themselves on that (I think). They have an initial premise, and it may take abit of practice to have it come to fruition (like hovering port-a-potties) but nearly all of what comes from Japan's myriad of variety / intellect / skill game-like shows is "reality", for better or worse.
