I was looking forward to Encounters, just like everyone here, then I read the Chicago Sun-Times review available here:
TLDR:
In Episode 4, Miho Ninagawa, a human, claims she’s an alien. She provides ZERO proof of her claims.No one challenges this claim. From the article: “We just hear this person spouting this madness.”

Relevant section of the article:
Finally, in “Lights Over Fukushima,” we’re steered further away from somewhat reasonable debate and into the realm of spirituality and psychological study. We start with story of the Fukushima nuclear plant meltdown of 2011, with hundreds reporting seeing mysterious lights in the sky, in the aftermath, and we hear theories about the connection between UAP activity and nuclear power plants, and also the idea that advanced E.T.s are living and operating from deep in our oceans. We also get that aforementioned claim by one Miho Ninagawa, who matter-of-factly states she’s an alien. There’s no challenging of this claim, nor does she provide a shred of evidence to back this up. We just hear this person spouting this madness, and we wish her well.

I’ll reserve judgment until I watch it myself, but to say I’m disappointed is an understatement.
This doesn’t help alleviate the stigma.
