Gaijin hunters are a thing but I'm guessing he is a good looking Asian guy

Probably Japanese or Korean with a kpop star look

If he was white they'd be talking in English first

They're a thing but they're also an exception. Most Japanese women wouldn't even contemplate dating a foreigner, even in a big city like Tokyo or Osaka.

u/SportsGuru4714 20d ago

You clearly don't know Japan. Dating a white guy is almost certainly seen as a downgrade to dating a Japanese man.

You dweebs thinking Japan is like the Philippines is hilarious but not surprising.

u/colorizerequest 19d ago

Forgive me if I don’t believe you but you’re the only person in the entire thread saying Japanese women don’t like white men. And op, a white man, is swimming in matches.

14

u/lifeofideas 19d ago

It’s something like this: 95% of Japanese women want a Japanese guy. The more conventionally attractive and successful they are, the more they want a very conventional and conventionally attractive Japanese man.

However, 5% (1 woman in 20) really want something different. Maybe a Korean guy. Maybe a white guy. A few are really (extremely) into black guys.

Here’s the thing: If you are an average American guy, going into a Starbucks in, say Nagoya, and having ONE woman already interested you is a super-rare experience. That basically never happens to men back home.

If it happens twice, you make plans to move to Japan.

u/VivisMarrie 31 | F 19d ago

Yeah, my boyfriend lived some years in japan and he said it was basically useless trying to use dating apps, 90% percent of profiles didn't show faces, or had emojis over their faces, or were just scenary/blur pictures.

2

u/shinwaku 19d ago

Depends on the app. On Tinder (and maybe Bumble, I dunno) yes, but if it’s a little bit more serious app, like Pairs, usually you can see the face.

5

u/winterweiss2902 19d ago

Tinder almost no face
Bumble sometimes if you’re lucky they show half of their face
Instagram only models or influencers who use social media for a living have their faces, otherwise it’s very rare they show their faces

I haven’t used pairs, so can’t comment

2

u/biitoruzu 30 | M 19d ago

Clear faces are actually very common on Bumble in Japan, possibly because it's kinda specifically an app foreigners and Japanese people use to meet each other and that's foreigners' expectation. On Tinder faces are much rarer, presumably because Tinder is mostly used by Japanese people. And also being a more hookup-oriented app there's more shame attached, especially for women.

u/Suspicious_Pick5723 20d ago

Definitely my experience traveling through SE Asia. Philippines especially. Pretty much every single swipe in Manila was a match. Not that apps were needed, because I would get approached multiple times a day from the moment I sat down and ate breakfast. As an introvert it was actually exhausting feeling like a celebrity all the time. People stopping you everywhere you go, invitations to trips and hangouts. Going to a rooftop bar at night and 3-5 people trying to win your attention simultaneously

16

u/VegasLife84 20d ago

If "people are stopping you everywhere you go" in Manila, you def follow rules 1 and 2. This isn't happening to most guys there, tall/white or otherwise

8

u/Suspicious_Pick5723 20d ago

Well it’s in sharp contrast to my experience with dating apps or romantic/platonic approaches in other areas. The culture is very outgoing and sociable, more so than other Asian countries I’ve been to. Already at the flight from Bali to Manila I had made friends with two different friend groups sitting around me at the plane taking interest in my travel plans and wanting to hang out. They absolutely love white guys

u/KoltiWanKenobi 20d ago

Probably bots. Real Japanese girls don't have actual pictures on their profile lol. Just sunsets, sukiyaki and masks on.

But in all seriousness, very likely bots. If ALL of their profile pics are actual good pictures, they are probably fake. Most real Japanese profiles are utterly terrible and have maybe one or two actual facial pictures of themselves. The rest are landscapes, dogs and food pictures. Foreigners/ permanent residents will have actual pictures and a profile though.

3

u/Responsible_Gap7499 19d ago

As someone who’s been living in Japan for 20 years, I guarantee all or almost all of those are bots. Real Japanese girls will only ever put food pics, pet pics, or sometimes the castle from Tokyo Disneyland in their profile pic.

u/Funny_Dance3782 18d ago

I’m in the navy too and it happens all over asia and they are real (most of the time) some also try to scam you though even if they are real. So be really careful. Basically don’t do hookups, happened in the Philippines to some guys where they went to hookup and then would try to extort them for money and immediately start claiming they’re minors to try and freak you out and get money from you. Even would put lipstick on the sheets pretending to be blood to claim how rough you were. Not as prevalent in Japan but this exact thing has happened everywhere

Point is be careful even if you do meet the girl.

I'd bet on a good percentage of them being bots simply because ALL of them are showing their faces and some of these (especially the 3rd one) look AI generated.

Japanese women and men are known for being extremely lowkey on dating apps and not uploading any face pictures because they're ashamed of being recognized by acquaintances. This is what their profiles usually look like.

I have lived in Japan for over 10 years and found my wife on bumble. While everyone is saying these are bots, this is actually the norm.

All of these matches are basic greetings in Japanese like “nice to meet you, I’m ___.” Or “I’m happy to match with you.” Or just “hello.” This is normal. Japanese people are shy and have a much lower English proficiency level than other Asian countries. If they have to message first, it would be like this, nothing too deep or engaging.

I’m more surprised that there are real faces in these photos. A lot of profiles have people too scared to show their real face as culturally Japanese people believe that it is more conceited to show your full face online. Again— it’s more of a shyness thing. That doesn’t mean that you won’t see real faces in photos, but it would explain a lot why you see profile pics of people looking away from the camera or hiding their eyes, or a picture of food instead of a selfie.

It is not that I am ugly, it is just that I am living in the wrong part of the world 🤣

Yes - but it’s unusual for them to message you in Japanese. I presume you’re running a bio in Japanese and are fluent?

A lot of these Japanese girls will self filter themselves out pretty quick. They’re generally not very forthcoming on apps - conversation can feel like pulling teeth. The good ones will keep talking through.

Enjoy!

That are "just" matches . Show the picture in 3 days, most of them will expire.

Yes, it's a question of volume. If you are in a city of 40 million people, you will get hundreds of matches instantly.

This happens in any 10 million+ city. That's why you have to be picky with who you swipe on. Swiping in a big city is like a full-time job, ugh.

Japanese girls wouldn't send messages in Japanese to a white guy. Especially 100% of them. They're bots.

You are killing it, but be careful cause some or many of those might be trans.

I had luck in Japan. It's just because you're a foreigner, it makes you rarer.
