Matchmaking apps in Japan are plentiful, varied and even dedicated for Otakus who have a hard time looking for love. But in many occasions these love encounters can result in a somewhat bizarre, bizarre or memorable experience to have a few laughs at a meeting when telling it, which is why in a certain Twitter/X thread the best stories of these apps are compiled.
Dating apps can be a nest of memorable experiences for Otaku
Many of us have used this kind of apps, being a minefield for which you pray not to find weird people or scammers, usually the experiences are like a Russian roulette when setting up a date, something that the Japanese Otakus also share, this time giving us their weirdest or bizarre experiences on this kind of apps. If you are interested in this bunch of stories presented in thread form on Twitter/X, you can check them out here.
In the first experience, a certain user tells that, “I had quoted a man who, in his profile, proved to be a skilled investor, which made me more confident in making the appointment. By the time we met the result was somewhat different, he was just a lover of hook machines (those where you take out stuffed animals), the good point is that he was a very talkative guy, too much”.
Another user mentions his experience accompanied by some laughs: “We decided to meet at a place to eat, we walked to the place, which was very cheap to be true, but we did not pay much attention to it, so we continued talking, the usual, a date. When it was time to pay we realized the truth, we were in a scam restaurant, as the bill came in at 400,000 yen, while my companion was perplexed looking at the bill, I just paid my 2,000 yen and left. He later told me that he had to call the police to get out of it.”
There are hundreds of other experiences and anecdotes that are just as funny or even a bit creepy that move along the thread created by Japanese users. Perhaps it is due to the number of applications that have these, each with its differences, for example, there are dating applications exclusively for otaku (of course), this is called Otakoi and has become viral not long ago for having a greater female audience, something we have covered in this note of our page.
We know that love is difficult for otakus, also for people in general, even though going on a date with someone you don’t know… is not recommended, you should always have some security measures, an emergency phone number, send location to a relative, those things that keep you safe from any accident. Everyone has a memory, something embarrassing or something that can make you laugh about a date, those profiles on Tinder are not always blue eyes and profiled nose, tell us, do you have any anecdote?
