Why Foreign Women Struggle Dating In Japan

TOKYO GUIDEBOOK takashifromjapan.com/tokyocompleteguide

A guy that goes to all that effort to learn his woman’s native language so that he can meet her parents is a keeper.

the first woman interviewed was hilarious. "At least he wasted my time for two weeks and not two years" lmao

"When he came to America, he really wanted to meet my family, but they don't speak Japanese..." 😭😭😭 learning to speak your girlfriend's language to talk to her mom?? So wholesome I'm dying

My son has been interested in Japanese culture since he was a child. (he’s 24 now) I wanted to gift him a trip to Japan but he doesn’t want to go, he worries that he might offend people without knowing it. We’re Native American Indigenous and in our culture our elders are very important to us. We are quiet and sometimes considered shy. I would really like for him to experience your country but I don’t know what kind of experience it would be for him.

Takashi’s journalism, camera, and English skills get noticeably better each video. Go Takashi!!!

This was really interesting! But I think you'll probably get more clear answers around why Japanese guys don't seem to date foreign women by asking Japanese guys, not the women. All my foreign female friends in Japan always said they were interested in dating Japanese guys, but all of them consistently said that the dates never went anywhere.

Thank you for posting both perspectives! This has been helpful and fascinating to see.

There are two kinds of guys in my experience here in Japan. The kind that only wants sex and isn’t interested at all (or dates you only out of curiosity) and the kind that is too shy to even bring up the fact that they like you. It’s so frustrating 😭

Just noticed the camera quality improved dramatically. Really makes you appreciate the cleanliness of Japanese streets.

you find the most funny , interesting people for interviews ... is so so simple but the feeling obtained and the informations are so authentic , natural , unique

Takasii's last interview was very impressive. All the interviews were great, I was personally impressed with her studying Japanese and Kanji. Very nice!

I wonder if these videos are Takashii’s way of getting relationship advice so he can date foreign women.

The Indian girl is very articulate and I think what she said was quite accurate. Japanese me are a bit shy to begin with but then when they do date foreign women they do not take them seriously. But I will also add that the same applies foreign men who date Japanese girls. They are mostly there for hookups and do not take them that seriously.

Thank you TAKASHii!!! Your videos are awesome man, I always love watching your videos and I always watch them from start to finish. You have a great interviewer personality

Doing gods work TAKASHI! Love this channel!

I would say there is another huge issue behind this and it´s the ethnicity of the foreigner person. I have been in Japan already for 7 months and I realized that blonde and white-skin girls get way more attention than dark haired and dark-skin girls. There is some sort of idolization for this "kind" of foreigner. So that also adds up to the equation when we contemplate dating. Sometimes even if you receive some sort of attention from men, they do not go further into something serious and it can be very difficult sometimes to find an honest man when they tend to think you are "easy" just because you do not share the "Japanese social standards".

The last interview gave really good insight into the question and it was very heartwarming to see Takashii and the interviewee connect through speaking Japanese 😄

Please more videos of this subject! Soon I'm traveling to Japan for 4 years and I need to know

very articulate interviewees and varying ranges of experiences make this interview interesting
