Nobody takes away the fascinating, exotic and mysterious aspects of Japan, since it is well known that this Asian nation has one of the most enviable lifestyles in the world, a culture that for centuries has fascinated the accidental pole and a food that is among the best in the world. But they are also capable of surprising us with very unusual anecdotes that only make sense in that part of the world. Today the Japanese nation has surprised us again with a very peculiar proposal that will surely interest many otakus.
Japan wants you to have a partner and the Tokyo government will help you find one with this curious application
It turns out that the government of Japan is launching a dating app backed and developed by the Tokyo city council to help people who live, work or study there to find their ideal partner more easily. This application called “Tokyo Futari Story” is aimed at an audience over the age of 18 and will work a little differently than what is already available in the dating app market. What sets this app apart is the government-backed verification process, as it requires users to prove their marital status and income, as well as participate in an online interview to confirm their identity.
In addition, this new app will use an artificial intelligence system so that, based on tastes and interests previously answered in a questionnaire, it can improve the recommendations of people with whom you can have compatibility. This news obviously caused many reactions in Japan, because although it is a somewhat risky proposal by the government of the city of Tokyo, it may be due to begin to mitigate a problem that the country is facing, and that is the low birth rate in the country and the rapid aging of its population.
Many users commented that this new strategy was probably to encourage young people to find a partner more easily, so that “in the near future they could procreate” to gradually decrease the low birth rate in the country, while other users were somewhat annoyed because they found it very indignant that the government of Japan spent on this type of project the taxes of their taxpayers. While, on the other hand, some found the idea quite fascinating and said they were excited to try this new way of meeting people.
Undoubtedly once Japan shows us how interesting it can be, since an application to meet your next romantic partner and also supported by the local government, is something that would certainly be a great plot of some ecchi/harem anime, and even H. Fortunately for some “otakus” this will be a reality that they can experience very soon. So tell us in the comments section what you think of this new measure by the Tokyo city government and more importantly if in your country there was such a project, would you be one of those willing to try this new resource?
