Oh no I just heard it from my window (I think I'm literally on "love hotel hill" or something)

Yea Joseon is old name of Korea (the dynasty that ruled it most recently) so Im guessing thats where it comes from

Yea. These girls are so pretty

Id say prettier faces than Koreans. A lot of them have moles which is kind of cute

Post: #1402

Yea shit. First night out went to V2 in Roppongi - didn't get going til like 1:30-2? I think. Before that it was meh but when it got going it was pretty good (Thursday)

But yea these girls are fire

Biggest things holding me back were

***1) Lack of Japanese skills (very basic - went through Pimsleur I before coming)
***2) No friends/wingman (this was big.. I'd say at least 3 girls were pretty down but they didn't wanna ditch their usually ugly friend)
- Interestingly, like Korea, a lot of the girls seemed to roll in 2s (like they expect to be picked up?)

Not sure if it was just from being in Roppongi (foreigner district or whatever) but being Korean actually seemed to help me with much of the girls I was talking to - 1 girl literally all over me (like a 5 maybe 6 if yucky but whatever), calling me "oppa" (~papi in Spanish), etc.

I honestly expected to be treated like a lower caste individual or something. We'll see how things go in Shibuya tomorrow - read it's more Japanese? (planning to spend rest of weekend nights in Shibuya)

Sorry for double post

Rolling in twos is certainly a way for J-girls to get approached more. I love this about Japan.

And from my experience, Japanese people under 40 love Korea, even with all their funny little stereotypes about their culture, they mean well.

They love the food, the shopping, the make up, the TV dramas... It would be great time to be a young, tall, in shape and stylish Korean dude in Japan these days.

Post: #1404

For sure, think I saw a young Korean guy leave with a (I think) 20 year old chick I was hitting on earlier in the night. But his Nihongo was way better than mine :x

Actually there was like a contingent of Korean dudes who took the K-pop/K-hiphop shit to the extreme, like looking like G-Dragon if anyone knows who that is



Pretty sure the dude I saw pull was part of that group. Shit maybe I should grabbed a wingman from there lol (my experience with asking random dudes to wing me is usually not good. I met some random white dudes from Texas and asked them to wing but they didn't know what was good. Shoulda just got Nihongo-speaking Korean pop star ha)

Yea fuck I'm still a little hungover but super excited to hit Shibuya tonight.

If anyone's in Tokyo, let me know!

Post: #1405

Got that initial Nihon flag!

Went to Sound Museum Vision in Shibuya tonight. I'm about to pass out at my keyboard so apologies for any typos, etc

I saw it was one of the better places in Shibuya - good sound, music, multiple rooms, etc but silly me, I forgot that good clubs (like good music, etc) are usually not the best for pickup (people more into the music, club regulars vs. random partygoers) - just my experience

The vibe just didn't seem that right. It kinda got going ~2ish(?) but even then, it wasn't a crazy party. More of like, bob your head to this cool tech house type shit vibe.

There was one set I can remember where I was not really in the mood just yet and went to sit down somewhere. A girl sitting on the bench gave me the eye and eventually I worked up the will to start a convo. I was weak tho. She was into me but I fizzled so she went to find her friends (I think the first time her friend called she literally silenced her phone). She wasn't that hot though (29 y/o, maybe a 6)

Besides that, nothing really went well. Granted I didn't approach a lot of sets - I wanna say ~10 or less not sure. I try to pick my sets selectively (part excuse not to approach sometimes, too) - don't really go for the low probability sets, e.g. a group of like 10 people or something

Eventually I see this like 5 chillin on the wall by herself. At first I pass but then I'm like fuck it. Anyway, she spoke pretty good English and shit (I think she spent 1.5 years in America, can't remember) and had a weird smell (I'm sensitive to this kind of thing). I probably could have made more serious moves but her friends came and we say bye

Immediately after, some girl moves to the exact spot where the previous girl just was on the wall. I take this as a sign and approach

Honestly, from open to close - must have been like 5 minutes tops serious. Like making out in like 2 minutes tops I think. I think she was just looking to get fucked. Girl was 23 y/o, volleyball player (hobby) - probably makes her sound hot, not really I'd say 6 (pic below). English was very, very basic but still existent. Or maybe she was just willing to talk to me/make it happen

Anyway, get to the crib which is like not even a 5 minute walk from the club (logistics!) and it's on immediately. Her pussy smelled semi-ratchet (but I'm sensitive to smell somewhat) but whatever, got something out of a seemingly wasted night (cover charges are expensive by the way like tonight was 3500 yen or ~$35 USD). There is a stain on the bed which I don't want to sleep on lol (she got real wet)

Talking and shit a lot after mostly via Google Translate and I start asking about re-entry (Vision and V2 in Roppongi had no re-entry so if you pull you'd better hope that you chose the right one), where her friends are, etc and she eventually leaves

Pic of the girl:

http://i.imgur.com/MYJX76r.jpg (semi-clothed so semi NSFW)

Going to be hitting superclub ageHa tomorrow. I already got laid so I'm looking forward to having a lot of fun. Being a fuckin ninja in Japan
Ninjas in Japan

Random observations:
1) Seems like a lot of people literally just go to the club straight from work (wearing work attire, carrying briefcases in the club, etc). The girl I banged tonight was dressed in work clothes/came straight from work, too

2) Japanese people like to drink. - seems like the girls moreso, or at least they act out more. Peoples' drinking levels seem similar to Korea. Saw multiple people passed out in public

Post: #1406

So got another bang here

Sorry I should have probably just started like a journal thread or something

Like 5/10, maybe 6 if I wasn't sober and looks like she's in her 30s maybe even 40s you never know with these backwards aging Asian women. But she swallowed so I'll take it
- will post pic upon request but she's currently on my bed behind me lol

Met at Hub in Shibuya and just took her straight back to the crib. At first a little resistance but I mean she came straight to the crib so obviously it was gonna happen

Met at ageHa last night - crazy club. Granted I was really fucked up. Would recommend for superclub fans - like 4 rooms (1 was even trance! like real trance - old Tiesto and shit) the main room basically a sports stadium scale type space (EDM, etc). TONS of hotties running around but I was wasted so judgment highly impaired. I do remember getting a Line/"isolating" an 8 maybe 9 from her friends but like it didn't go down so obviously doesn't mean shit (these girls generally seem more "polite" than Koreans) ~3-4AM(?) started to game (way too late) Took subway back to Shibuya and was up until like 9:30am hollering at bitches on the street. Got a bunch of Line IDs at the club. Before I met this chick today, had no idea what she looked like since her pic is of her fucking dog lmao

About to hit the club now at Womb! Halloweekend popping off here in Nihon

Post: #1407

it seems like strong zero 9% fucks u up more and more with every passing minute

sry im a lil yucky

Post: #1408

Those chuhai drinks are the best and worst things about japanese convinis.

Really glad to hear your enjoying your time.

Post: #1409

Yea it probably has a lot to do with the fact that I am in a new place ("travel high") and that it's Halloweekend but it's been fun. Today's the last day for me in Tokyo and hopefully 10/31 Halloween is a fun one. Gonna try to finish out with another bang haha

So last night I went to Womb but they were doing remodeling and only 1 floor was open. Again with the "good" clubs... not as good for picking up. The music was really good (subjective) - I think Sundays are trap/hip-hop/bass house/etc nights, according to the flyer. I actually was about to leave the club at one point but went back in and got stuck for a few minutes because the music was so good (it was some Justin Bieber future house type remix no homo). DJ was good at mixing and matching different vocals to instrumentals - I forget what this is called right now since my brain is not 100%

50 Cent "If I Can't" / All the Way Up is a hot mix

People were busy dancing or mingling in their groups (club scene! not all just random partiers)

I tried going to Atom. But the line was crazy. I had actually passed by on my way to Womb but didn't realize it was for Atom because on the way the line was so long that it went to the front of some other building (so I thought it was for that building/venue). Waited for a bit, told bouncer I'd pay 5000 yen vs. 3500 but he wasn't having it. At that point it was ~3 so I didn't think it was worth it (closing time at 4:30) so I went back towards Gas Panic/Hub area where the street party was still going strong

I was too silly though. Killed a Strong Zero tallboy really fast and like, I've barely been eating here maybe 2 bullshit conbini meals a day/I'm like not even 150 lbs right now

I was straight up YOLO mode like asking 2 sets to just come over and drink cuz "Shibuya ni seundayimasu" to look cool. Or just like straight picking up girls RSD Internet Marketer style and running away from their other friend but yea no dice

Post: #1410

do you mean mash ups?

Post: #1411

Yea haha was braindead

So yea last night out in Tokyo went to Atom since the line was crazy the other night
TL;DR - didn't get pussy but some interesting info (I think)

Line was crazy again tonight but got there ~11 so didn't wait too long

I don't know if that club is normally like that but it was sardine can packed like could not move at all. Definite fire hazard

But yea, it's exactly as you guys said - you NEED Japanese skills like don't even bother coming if you can't. If you want to get anything approaching "quality" (subjective) those girls don't speak any English whatsoever (if you're really good looking it probably doesn't matter but then again you'd do well anywhere). Granted, I went out only 1 night in Roppongi (foreigner district?) so might be different over there (vs. Shibuya)

Most of the girls at this club were early 20s

So I don't remember if I had my ninja mask on at this point (will explain below) but some straight up 9/10 was hovering by me as I was posted on the wall pretending to check my phone. So I holla'd at this shorty but the lack of Nihongo fucking killed me

I met a Korean girl at one point - like I asked if she was Korean (we Asians just know these things) and we hit it off. She was 29 but hot af like solid 8 maybe 9 if a little drunk. Definitely wouldn't give me the time of day in Seoul. Was nice to be able to communicate. Anyway, dancing getting drinks together, etc. She straight up tells me we aren't having sex - pretty crazy to hear that straight up from a Korean girl like that. She and her friend were from Daejeon - which is like maybe the 4th biggest city or so in Korea (~the middle of South Korea)
Edit: I first met her when I had my ninja mask on. Later I reapproached without the mask and asked her if I was good looking - she said yea but I think she mighta said something along the lines of "not so much in Korea" - I feel my competition is definitely higher in Korea vs. Japan (no hate, subjective)

Her friend was not having fun (the girl I was hitting on was visiting her). Her mom was Japanese or something so she probably had problems growing up and shit (sorry but just guessing). Anyway, it just isn't going down but the difference between interacting with Korean and Japanese girls is interesting to me (the Korean girl hitting me and shit, typical more "in your face" personality - maybe just amongst fellow Koreans though - I'm not foreign so I don't know)

I'm just going through girl after girl but the 2 main things (AGAIN) that are killing me are lack of Japanese and lack of friend(s) - so many girls were asking me where my friend was (to wing their friend)

Eventually I take my ninja mask off. Being a ninja in Japan for Halloween is funny but bitches can't see my face. I think the responses get better - I got a good face. No hate but Japanese guys look pretty scraggly in general

I also don't bother talking in my shit Japanese or trying to English and instead start to just talk to bitches using a translator - Line has some thing where you type in one language and it messages you back in Japanese or whatever. Just setup the Japanese keyboard for them. It was going well but again, lack of friends killed me

I meet some girl in a kimono who's into me - I think she was like a 5 maybe 6 - couldn't tell in the lighting. Real into me - we kiss briefly - but again, friends. As I'm leaving, she messages me and I try to get her to come out but she won't leave her friends

I meet some girl whose dad is apparently Korean (like totally Japan-ized though - no Korean, etc). She's cute like Japanese petite with the cute titties and we're talking and she's like teach me Korean (on the translator) but again the fucking friends

There were other sets but those are the ones that stood out/that I remember

So if you come here, LEARN JAPANESE or use a translator and hope for the best
AND HAVE FRIENDS - these girls, like Koreans, roll in 2s, maybe 3s and getting picked up seems normal. Many Japanese guys are in on it and the girls in general seem more down/friendlier than Koreans. Saw tons of people making out, girls getting picked up, etc. Though that might have to do with Halloween/the sheer number of people in the club (more people = more probability for pickup - bigger sample size) And several cuties were being picked up by very average looking guys (but Japanese so they speak the language)

Personally, I feel like the majority of sets they at least hear me out whereas in Korea most insta-reject. Also, not sure if it's just Atom/Shibuya in general but table culture doesn't seem as big here (good luck picking up a hottie in Korea without a table)

IMO this country is heaven if you like petite and cute girls

I definitely plan on coming back to this country with Nihongo in hand (it's similar to Korean in some respects so I should be able to become conversational somewhat easily)

I leave for Osaka tomorrow and think I'm gonna hit the daygame/Instagram more. Even though I am a nightgame guy mostly, it's just a fool's errand because of not having wings/friends. There were too many sets to count in the 5 nights I went out in Tokyo where not having a friend killed me - like with a 5 or 6 maybe they'll just come with me but anything that I want - say 7 or higher - my looks aren't enough

Post: #1412

Nice reports man.

I personally don't go to Atom (or most Shibuya clubs generall) because girls there are not interested in foreigners at all. It's always been blowout central for non-Asian dudes. I'm talking girls who won't even acknowledge your presence when you open them out of embarrassment. To be fair though, even most Japanese guys would bomb if they weren't into that particular subculture.

Friends are always a cockblock in Japan. Not to be a downer here, but the truth needs to be stated. Sometimes it's as simple as "my friend doesn't like foreigners" and that's it. Most of the times they won't say that. They will just go to the bathroom and then disappear. In Shibuya, I'd estimate that 90-95% of club girls are looking for a Japanese guy.

Post: #1413

Yea I guess most people at the club were young Japanese.

I only went to Roppongi once (V2) and it was kind of a slow night (Thursday). Some foreign guys but honestly - the club had more of a Japanese vibe - IIRC like 2 girls I talked to spoke some English - both weren't that hot - one was definitely had foreign cock lover vibe. The hotter girls I talked to there didn't speak English. I think I read online that it's sort of a fancy spot for Japanese? Not sure

I mainly stayed in Shibuya/did Shibuya because I think Zerdame on here said that's probably a better move as an Asian guy (vs. Roppongi which is more oriented towards non-Asians) - not sure

Though at Atom I did notice one guy making some moves (looked to be some sort of Latin or European) and asked his friend - who told me he spoke Japanese (actually they both did - the friend didn't even speak English - I don't know what he said in Japanese but maybe they grew up in Japan or something?)

On that note, seems to be a decent amount of halfies or like people who don't look full Japanese but seem pretty integrated into Japanese society? No idea. But nothing like that in Korea

I also did see a white guy approaching and at least not getting insta-rejected (though not getting anywhere substantial in the 2 sets I saw) - but he was good looking and by the way he was moving/talking, seemed like a natural/like he had good game (fratboy douchebag clown vibe). Don't know if he was speaking Japanese

To be honest, and I'm not bullshitting (though I am proud to be Korean), one of the bigger surprises of this trip has been my reception as a Korean dude - overall pretty positive. I truly expected to be treated in a somewhat bad way (might be different if I were to try to talk to Japanese guys but I don't talk to guys when I'm out) given the history of Korea being a Japanese colony. I think I might've posted it in here but I went to Hub briefly to meet some chick I banged and noticed the whole bar was singing along to some song... I listen a little bit and it was a K-pop song - blew my mind. Also Yakiniku, which is their version of Korean BBQ, is huge here

Re: friends - I was just kinda screwed in the sense that I was gaming my girl but her friend was just bored since she wasn't being gamed so my girl would feel bad for her friend, etc. Also, this meant she wasn't gonna leave her friend to go with me. Might've played out differently if I had a wing and we could pull both girls to do some shit together like drink or karaoke or both then separate them, pull separately, etc

Post: #1414

So just went out for dinner in Osaka ~Dotonbori

A ton of Korean tourists like at least 1/5 or 1/4 people maybe

FYI I think on LINE, you can invite the Line Friends translator thing in a chatroom and basically have it translate for you as you message a Japanese chick... pretty cool #ThankYouTechnology

Girl from Tinder just did that and we are talking via this "interpreter"

That exact situation has happened to me literally hundreds of times in Japan. Friends are cockblocks there and they rarely leave them, no matter how into you they are. Can get frustrating.

Having a wing helps for sure, but he will need to be the friend's exact type at the exact right time. For the record, I find that it's better to wing with other foreigners because the chances of one girl liking the foreigner and the other a Japanese guy are slim IME. For SNL type scenarios, you typically want a set where both are looking for (or at least open to) a foreigner. You are Korean though so maybe you get the best of both worlds!

Post: #1416

True that... the pitfalls of "travel life" and going out alone

So I been here in Osaka for a few days. First few days didn't really do shit (gym, laundry, etc). Got some eye contact walking around during the day doing chores/sightseeing (didn't act - usually in my head if I'm not leaving my apt with the intent to pick up - excuses). Seems like I'm getting more eye traffic in Japan but who knows... I usually don't leave my house that much in Korea

Area I'm staying - Amemura/Amerikamura is sick if you like street fashion... didn't mean to but picked up a few pieces ha

Went out last night (I promised myself I'd "daygame" and Instagram more. IG game is kind of a wash I think. Re: daygame I wake up too late lol. Sleep schedule still fucked from Halloweekend in Tokyo)

Richie Hawtin was at some place called Onzieme last night.. any other day and I woulda went (but again "good music" not good for pickup.. IMO)

And Noisecontrollers at Club joule - seems like Osaka gets better DJs? Not sure. Don't remember any big names being in Tokyo last weekend even tho it was Halloween

Also wtf do these clubs mean by "pickup event" like when you go to their page it always says that.. I'm guessing it doesn't mean pickup in the way we mean pickup lol

Also damn I feel like I look like shit (face) - late nights, drinking, basically eating only conbini meals minus a few decent meals for 2 weeks straight, not using my usual lotion (no homo) - looking forward to getting on that healthy time again. Starting to look older, (I think) not sure if good or bad..

Anyway, went to "Sam and Dave One" since it allegedly had English-speaking girls (according to online). It was pretty dead the whole night. Did see some foreigners getting some action but as you can imagine the girls were just ok - the few semi-decent ones were with Jap guys

I don't know what area that place is in but it seems to have a lot of working girls? Like for Japan, seems a little sketch. Lots of guys trying to get you to come to places (no idea what they're saying tho) and even girls like HOT girls (tho they didn't holler at chaboi.. maybe because I'm not Nihon-jin. Or maybe cuz I look like a phaggot lol)

I got to Sam and Dave ~11:30-12 and it was dead but seems to be one of the few places in Japan that allows re-entry (most places in Korea are cool with that as long as you have wristband/stamp) so I checked out a few bars recommended to me by people/online - Zerro, Cinquecento - both were just chill/a bit small for my tastes.. like more sit and talk bars which is not me (tho it may be different on busy nights)

Keep in mind it was Friday but still, everything seemed dead (or maybe I just didn't know where to go)

I asked a worker at Sam and Dave how many floors there were at the club and I can immediately tell she likes me. I was kinda hesitant since I didn't want her/me to get in trouble. I think she said she was 20 but yea I'd give her a 7 - she kept texting me where I was and shit but she's so busy with work - like back to back to back part-time gigs. She even kissed me while on the job when we were close. Definitely kind of a sloot - said her ex was from NY, she went to Miami in April, wants to study abroad in the US. But whatever, I'm down lol

Eventually at one point on the street maybe ~2 I see one girl who kinda gives me the eye - I opened by asking if she was Korean (she kinda looked it but I could tell she wasn't from her makeup and such - more the cute Japanese blush shit)

She wasn't Korean but she had lived there when she was younger for a little bit but yea instant connection. Into Korea and stuff. Solid 8 for me, maybe 9 if she worked out (she had those legs that don't have much separation between calf and rest of leg - like can tell she doesn't exercise much. If that makes any sense. And her legs weren't that firm - but not flabby or anything - just skinny/normal like most Asian girls)

Side note: most girls into Korea are not that hot (~6 at best) - seems to be getting better. Though caveat being most are too innocent.. (they probably think all Korean guys are like the cheesy ones from the dramas)

Shitty pic


Typical pretty face etc. Kinda in love (until I meet another one tonight.. haha)

But GOD DAMN! The friends factor. Her friend and her both liked me (her friend was more drunk - I'd give her a 7. Would bang either. The friend would def be more of a freak) but I can only do so much (or maybe my "game" sucks haha). The friend asked me where my friend was and shit.. Friends what is the game tactic here?

I think something definitely woulda happened if her friend wasn't there. We were getting drinks at a bar by my place and my hand was all over her legs (haha her friend saw this). Tried to get them to come over but wasn't happening - hopefully I can meet the girl I like before I leave~

There was another girl at Sam and Dave when I went back - came alone (would give her a 7). But I think she legitimately wanted to just chill and drink (or maybe my game sucks lol). Saw her with some white dude later (who was using Google Translate like me). I felt bad cuz I cockblocked this guy "AMOG" but didn't get shit (bad karma). Saw her leave with some Jap guy later but who knows what happened later.. Anyway what kind of bitch goes to the bar alone and not wanna get stuffed

Pic:


These girls, like Koreans, can't dance for shit

Like a moron, I waited for the one girl to get off work - I think she had like an hour between this shift and her next one at Izakaya but she took a while to close out and it wasn't gonna happen anyway - but my judgment was impaired - alcohol/maybe other shit lol

Towards the end, some 5 was eyefucking me hard but I've already done my fair share of charity work in Japan

Woke up at 2 and tried to daygame (not that experienced at this)
Anyway since I'm a homo took me like an hour or so to get out of the house - do my hair and shit

I think I got ~5 approaches in ~1 hour. Not that good but tried mostly to approach girls by themselves (I agree with Roosh in his book Day Bang - why approach girls in 2s/groups - whole point is to avoid that?)

Got a line from some hot 18 year old who says she's free ~lunch tomorrow. I doubt I'll wake up. But I also doubt anything will happen



God dayum. God bless these heavenly blessed beauties. Would f*** the shit out of the one on the right (and the left while I'm at it). I think the right gave me some eye contact but I didn't approach because she was with her friend. Maybe I should've~

I think I'll check out international party today (maybe) and Giraffe. Who knows

Post: #1417

You are worrying too much about the friends thing. "I came alone" is perfectly OK thing to tell them. You also don't need a wing to pull in Japan.

On the contrary, whenever I went out alone in Tokyo or wherever, I always seemed to do better in terms of picking up. If her friends are cockblocks, they would probably be the same way even if you had a wing. Japanese people can be bad like that.

Nice work on the daygame!

Post: #1418

Usually I'll say something along the lines of - came with my friend but he got too drunk and went home. In Korea, it works some of the time

Here friends seem to be less willing to ditch each other but not sure

Whatever, you're right. If it's meant to happen it'll happen

Post: #1419

I wanted to share with you guys my trip to Japan in late-August. I'm a little delayed in posting, but better now than never. First off, want to give a big shoutout to Bushido and Tokyo Joe. Bushido gave me fantastic, pragmatic information and helped me navigate the maze that Japan is. I read Tokyo Joe's thread a couple times and its very informative. Unfortunately, I missed one sentence in his initial post that may have been the most important in the whole thread.

Stats:
American
White
Late 20s
Italian suits and bit loafers
2 smashes

After spending a month in Thailand I had the opportunity to go to Japan. I wasn't really focused on a smash trip as I was just in Thailand, and told myself, "I'm going to see the sites and culture". Whatever that bullshit means. I could go as long as I wanted but choose to keep it around 17 days. To see as much as possible, I hashed out a trip of Sapporo, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Fukuoka. I was pretty much winging it, and that itinerary wasn't even finalized until I was in Tokyo.

Before I get into the details, I want to point out a few things about Japan, its culture, the girls etc. Many of you guys may be aware of this, but I think its vital to bring up again.

1) The language barrier really is an enormous obstacle. I didn't think it was that bad, and was confident I could just use body language. My Japanese consists of the following sentence: Hokkaido omakase yokohama tenjin fukuoka shibuya shinjuku wasabi. Basically zero. As it has been mentioned here many times, the hot girls speak zero english. I managed to find a translator on LINE that somewhat mitigated this. You would invite a girl to a group with this translator and it would automatically translate both languages.

2) Japan and Japanese culture is quite racist. I've never experienced racism like this. Now I know what it feels like to be a African-American in Ferguson - oppression. Many times I tried walking into places and was greeted with a big X. Granted in Sapporo a few of those may have been snack bars that I was not aware of, but several were izakayas that should have let me in.

3) A lot of Japanese girls are pretty ugly. Moles, terrible teeth, vampires, etc. My first few days I couldn't figure out what the hype was. Then Bushido directed me to the 109 store in Shibuya and I almost had a panic attack. 8 FLOORS of the hottest asian smash you could possibly dream of. When I got there I ran up the whole 8 floors, then ran back down as fast as I could. I think I was trying to find an ugly girl. I could not. So ultimately, Japan has by far the hottest asian girls of anywhere in the world. It's not even close you, just need to know where.

4) Logistics and foreigner receptiveness will absolutely destroy you. The majority of time I couldn't figure out where to go. If I found somewhere I thought was good, the foreigner receptiveness was abysmal. Or the ratios were 80/20 guys, no joke that bad. This really messed me up, as whenever I get to a new city I immediately try to find the XS or Liv. This is a wrong move in Japan. You need to find the ganjin hunters, so to speak.

5) Japanese girls, in my opinion, do not understand sarcasm at all. Maybe it was the language barrier, or something else. But it really hampered my interactions with them. They just don't get it. Half of my conversing skills rely on sarcasm, so this was big for me.

6) Japanese pours are the weakest shit ever. It took me FOREVER to get a buzz. LA pours are easily 3x the average Japanese pour. The "girls only" sections really mess up the club experience.

Sapporo
I fly to Tokyo from the U.S. (seat 1B, courtesy of Global Entry's frequent flyer thread - check it out), then immediately fly to Sapporo. Pulled $500 out the ATM, I wanted to take out more but that was the limit. More on that later. I head over to Riveria. It was the most unusual, strangest nightclub environment I've ever seen. Crazy Skrillex dubstep, but no one seeming to have fun just watching. I proceed to drink heavily and make a scene. Not much traction so I call it a night around 5am.

I walk over to the Lawson to get some cigarettes and see a large group of Japanese behind me. Two girls are looking at me so I just proclaim, "RAMEN!" very loudly. They laugh and I say it again. One of the girls says it too, and I immediately grab her hand and just walk outside saying "Ramen". Zero resistance.

Head back to my condo, and this girl speaks zero english. Probably about 18-21, maybe a 6 or low 7. It's my first night so I say fuck it. Plus she had a tongue ring and weird ass vampire teeth that intrigued me.

Total time from "RAMEN!" to balls deep: <5 minutes. Super submissive basically wanted all this freaky stuff, like face spitting, choking, etc. So on her way out at like 9am she RUNS out! I think, shit she took my wallet or something, I panic for a bit but then find it. A few moments later, however, I realize she didn't take my wallet but all my cash I took out a few hours earlier from the ATM. I was excited to head out for the night and thought my chances of a smash were nil so carelessly left around $400 right on the kitchen counter. She yanked it and ran on the way out. I may be the only rooshv member to get robbed within his first 7 hours in Japan. Most aren't honest enough to admit this.

I was in Sapporo for another day or two and spent the rest of the time seeing the ski jump, the beer factory, and the fish market. Basically, lying to myself (though I didn't realize it at the time) that I wanted to see tourist stuff. The fish market, however, has the finest sushi in the world. Truly amazing. I didn't fully appreciate it until I experienced the rest of the sushi in Japan. I'm considering going back just to visit the fish market.

Tokyo
Set up shop in Roppongi about 20 feet away from Feria, unfortunately it was closed. And basically follow Tokyo Joe's guide to a tee. My first night out I hit up Geronimo's, A971, Cat's, R2 etc. They were all dead. I managed to almost get a girl back at Cat's (despite being empty), but her friend was DJing or some garbage and she didn't come back. I call it quits around 4-5am.

Friday I head over to R2 and it was packed. A very receptive crowd, probably the best place to go in my opinion for a foreigner. I snag an older Jap (maybe 30) and her friend and head over to Muse. This place is completely anti-foreigner and you even need a business card to get in, of course I didn't have one. The girl said something to the bouncer and I got in.

I'm out of control this night buying a lot of drinks and just causing mayhem. At one point I pick up the Jap girl and spin her in the middle of the dance floor around 30 Japanese guys. Bumping into everyone and just not giving a fuck. I should have definitely got into a fight this night, not sure how I didn't.

Her friend was cockblocking all night, and eventually got sick so they left around 4am. I stayed until I had $10 left, and was left with the decision to get another drink or take a taxi home. Of course, I got the drink and sure enough there's a typhoon outside and I have to walk home in the rain. No pull.

The next night I meet up with Infinitejest and am determined to find the good nightclub. We head over to V2, which might possibly be the worst nightclub I've ever been to. I'm smoking and bouncer gets right in my face and says, "YOU CANNOT SMOKE HERE" and points 2 feet away to the "smoking section". I get a drink at the bar and am sipping on it, then another bouncer says, "YOU CANNOT DRINK HERE". He points two feet away to the dance floor. Ok WTF.

The girls here just were not down and the nightclub has an awful layout with terrible bouncers. We head over to Jumanji. Sure enough its a $20 cover with 80% guys. Wow. Immediately leave.

Head over to Espirit and stay there the rest of the night, but the crowd just was not receptive. Go home defeated around 6am.

The next day I'm recovering but see Radiohead at night. I needed another day off before I headed out to Kyoto so extended Tokyo so I could spend the whole day at the onsen in the middle of the city. Don't know the name, but it was huge. I recommend people checking out an onsen during their visit. I know it wasn't an official onsen, but it was still very nice. I also did eat at the wagyu steak place in Ginza that Tokyo Joe recommends. It was around $150 all in, but phenomenal.

Kyoto
After a somewhat disastrous Tokyo visit, I'm determined to make up for it in Kyoto. Get an 18 year olds number leaving the train station on the way to my accommodations, so things seem to be going good. I hit this night really, really hard. I think I went to every club in Kyoto - 4 or 5. I must have had 12-20 vodka red bulls. I end up with a decent enough girl at the last club, and was about to take her back. But of course her friend cockblocks me, or something else happened I couldn't figure out. No smash. Sure enough a few weeks later when I'm back in the U.S. she messages me non-stop and apologizes, and says she wishes she came back with me. Odd.

I have to wake up at 7am to go on a 12 hour bus tour. It's like 5:30 when I go to sleep. I was considering ditching it, but the Jew in me said no. That garbage was like $135.

I wake up to probably the worst hangover I've had in a while and make my way to the bus stop. Of course, its like the hottest day of the year in Kyoto and I have a 12 hour tour. I was not feeling this at all, but powered through it. Some of the Chinese girls were legit on the verge of tears because it was so hot. I look at them with disgust and disdain. "Did you drink 15 redbull vodka's and sleep 1.5 hours last night? Stop bitching". I'm practically sweating vodka red bull.

Somewhere in the Imperial Palace in 95 degree weather I see a rock. I realize the only thing I'm going to smash is my head on this rock because its so fucking hot and Japan does not like me. I make it through the day and consider getting a hotel at Kyoto station to just sleep. But I say fuck it and get on the train to Osaka.

Osaka
I don't really understand the love for this city. I disliked it about the first 10 minutes I got there. I stayed in Shinsaibashi and tried to find out where to go. Of course the places I went to had literally zero people. I cut my losses and decide to go to an International Party where they are more receptive. There's about 4-5 girls there and none are hot. $20 cover for "all you can drink", but its watered down bullshit. I literally told the bartender, I'll pay you just give me a real drink.

Head out of there around 11 to venture to a real club. End up across the street, of course its empty except for a table of Japanese guys in suits. I make friends, get them all wasted and talk with the head guy. Turns out they work for IBM and this guy is an IBM executive for all of Osaka. Big baller, easily makes $1mm+ a year.

I get him really drunk and he starts whispering stuff in my ear and mentioning he wants to party with me, etc. He keeps says, "Happening bar, illegal, illegal, we go, shhh" From what he told me, its like a couple's orgy place (no hookers), but its members only. "Many girl will like you, free don't worry". We get his team to leave and then turn the other way down the streets of Osaka.

We end up in some real sketch place. Up 2 stairs, elevator down, down more stairs, really weird I thought were were going in circles. When we get there of course, the bouncer is like no sorry no more tonight. The smash gods were really cursing me.

He says that's the only one he knows open tonight so we part ways. I head over to Giraffe, but it closes in 15 minutes so I don't have much time. After I head to G2, which I think is Giraffe 2. I think this is some sort of scam to extract as much cover out of you as possible. There might even be a G3. Giraffe --> G2 --> G3 - triple the cover, none of the fun!

I arrive and there's only two Japanese girls and they are in a "girls only" section. Complete bullshit. A few more people show up later in the night, I pull a pretty hot girl 7 or low 8 and get her back to my hotel. Smash raw. The smash gods smile down from the heavens. Maybe Japan's not so bad.

Fukuoka
I put a lot of hope on Fukuoka, in fact I considered going back to Tokyo and finish the trip off there. But a friend of mine said go to Fukuoka, trust me. I threw the hailmary.

What I didn't realize was that Fukuoka is tiny, and there's only like 2 "decent" clubs. Happy Cock and Cat's. Of course its Friday at 12am and Happy Cock is dead. So I head over to Cat's. Just more endless, crowded, no english, bad ratios I've been experiencing the whole trip. I get a girl back and am about to smash, but I couldn't crack the LMR. This was getting ridiculous. She leaves shortly after, and I head over to Happy Cock. Couldn't finish strong though.

The next night I again, cut my losses and head over to an International Party. I'm suited up to the tee and getting a lot of looks. I hook two girls, but I think one got jealous when I chose her friend over her. The one I choose didn't speak english, and it turns out they were part of a bigger group. So I now have like 6-7 Japanese girls and me, no wingman. They didn't want to go to a club, so I bring them to the closest bar to try and loosen them up and isolate the one girl. No dice and they bail when they see what I'm trying to do.

I head over to Happy Cock and run into this really hot Japanese girl I met the night before at Cat's. She's initially very receptive, but the thirst and praise she's getting from like 30 Japanese guys gets to her. At one point, I can't even get through her worshippers it was so bad. I get some Taiwanese girl back to my hotel, but of course couldn't crack the last minute resistance. No joke during this trip, I think had 3 maybe even 4 girls on my bed, but couldn't close. Strange.

I kick her out my hotel room and head back to Happy Cock. Trying to get things rolling with other girls I was talking to during the night, but they all suddenly have "boyfriends". I head home defeated. Fukuoka is awful if you don't speak Japanese.

I head back to Tokyo for one last day, but I'm pretty beat. I no joke would walk 3-5 miles each night, pounding the pavement looking for the action. While drinking the whole time. Doing night-game consistently is physically and mentally very taxing. It really takes a special breed to handle the tolls. I'm still conditioning myself.

It appears that my whole logic on what's good, where I should go, etc. was not working. So I did the absolute opposite of what I thought was good. At 1:30am in the middle of a typhoon, I head over to Womb. My logic was that no way this is going to be good, its raining very hard outside and its a Monday. Sure enough I was dead wrong. It's packed and has some of the hottest girls I've seen all trip. Blew my mind. The girls here were very insular and didn't get much traction.

Conclusion
Japan is tough and you really need a good understanding of the culture, where to go, and knowing the language helps tremendously. Half the time I couldn't find where to go, if I did find a good place no one spoke english. I was plagued by terrible weather, 3 typhoons in 2 weeks. I think towards the end I was starting to understand the nuances of Japanese girls. The first 3 weeks back in the U.S. I smashed 2 Japanese girls.

They are very, very childish. I think the typical Japanese girl has a train of thought that is something like this: Pink, Pokemon, Flower, Sushi, Dress. They are half retarded I swear.

If you can understand these nuances, speak the language, I think Japan very much is a paradise. Do not go to the third-tier cities if you don't speak the language. Tokyo Joe said it in his write-up, but I missed it. In fact, if you a first time visitor don't even go to the clubs. Only go to the international parties and you should be alright.

This might sound like a bitter post, but its not Japan is amazing. The girls are very hot, but you need a certain type of style and approach to do well here. I'll be back soon with a vengeance. You learn from your failures, adjust and come back stronger.

Great writeup Armogan +1 for me. Very well written report from boots on the ground. Sucks about the two typhoons and the money being stolen but at least you got the flag. Well done!!!

Excellent post armogan, you learned a lot about Japan in a short time and scored 2 bangs. Sorry to hear about you being robbed. Because there is not much crime its easy to be lulled into a false sense of security when you can be robbed in any country.I lived 3 years in tokyo and the Roppongi Ebisu area was the only part of Tokyo I consistently gamed where I had no success at all. Maybe I was just unlucky in Roppongi but I think its more that it's the gaijin capital of Japan.

Shibuya 109 and all Shibuya/Harajuku is fantastic, Shinjuku Ueno Kanda Ikebukuro Machida Yokohama, pretty much anywhere in Tokyo. Beach areas offer poor ROI in Japan as do nightclubs. Nightclubs are expensive and overcrowded and I never once scored in a Japanese nightclub. Night street game day and night coffee shop shop and street game is the way to go in Tokyo.

It takes a while to understand Japan and find your way around. While you can certainly get laid speaking no Japanese your prospects increase exponentially as you get better at Japanese. Problems arise for some guys because it is very easy to get an English speaking girlfriend in Tokyo. Some of these girls have figured out that it is better not to teach her gaijin bf Japanese if she wants to keep him so it is common to meet guys who have lived years or even decades in Japan who speak little Japanese.

With Japanese language ability social circle also becomes possible. You can find your way around much easier and even get work or do business.

Great trip report Armogan! Enjoyed reading about the rest of your trip there.

I recently just returned from another 5 days in Tokyo, this time staying with some friends in Shibuya over Halloween weekend. I was mostly rolling with a group of 5 other Americans, which I felt wasn't as conducive to game, as when I'm out with a group I tend to feel more comfortable just getting hammered and sticking with the comfort of the group. There's a freedom to rolling solo that I missed, where I felt I was more inclined to push myself socially when out alone because otherwise I'd just be sitting there drinking by myself.

Nevertheless, I had a good time having a good group of guys to hang out with, and still went hard every night, mostly hitting the street party that was Shibuya. It was nuts there. A couple streets were closed and the whole area around the main crossing was just a 4 day party Friday-Monday. It was packed with people, streets and bars overflowing at times. And the girls, what to say that hasn't already been expressed here. Just a sea of beautiful women out and about in Shibuya, many dressed in as little as possible. While girls in America are worrying about whether their Indian costume constitutes cultural appropriation, the Japanese girls are rolling out every variant of "Sexy X" outfit possible. I saw teams of girls dressed as sexy doctor, sexy cop, sexy dead cop, sexy Pikachu, sexy nurse, sexy Joker nurse...I could go on and on.

We went to Roppongi for a bit on Saturday night, but the party and the energy was definitely at Shibuya, so we returned there before the last trains. After not using any Japanese the last trip, I upgraded to simply shouting "Chotomate Kire" which I think means "Wait beautiful." Didn't get many hooks (although everyone was pretty friendly. the drinks were many and halloween spirit was strong), and can definitely agree with the sentiment that's been shared in the thread about girls in Shibuya looking for Japanese guys. Most of the foreigners I saw out were with other foreigners, although I saw some guys definitely trying to pick up girls. Mostly in the HUB british pub in Shibuya, where the foreigners and gaijin hunters seemed to congregate. I don't understand why so many foreign guys come out to Japan with their plump foreign girlfriend...must be brutal to see all the Japanese girls you could have instead.

As for myself, no new bangs this trip, but not for a lack of trying. I did end up banging the same girl I met last time. Hadn't texted since I was last in Tokyo, but she responded warmly and we met up a few nights later after I was already smashed and had spent the evening striking out.

The nightclubs over Halloween were mostly sausage fests that were way too crowded. I think I went to Womb, which I don't remember much about except it being stupidly packed, and this club called Harlem, where you paid Y3500 and didn't even get a free drink. A place where all the girls just sit off in a "girls only" area and dance away from the guys. The club literally cockblocking you; what a joke. The street party was way more fun and had way more action. Biggest hook was a girl who came up to me on the street and told me she loved me and wanted me to go to KTV with her friends, but she was pretty meh and it was early in the night still. At one point when I started talking to her friend she grabbed me and asked me why I was talking to her. I let her go and didn't have any long conversations that I remember except with another girl at about 4 AM. Supposedly I was typing into her phone to come to a love hotel with me, but it must have not worked out. Woke up to a good night message from her, but when I tried to get her out again she was too tired. You gotta score when the moment's there.

The city is something else. I think I'd like to come again for another solo trip, a longer one where I have more time to go for more girls, the kind who you wont find out looking for foreigners at night. Definitely glad I went again and got to experience a Halloween in Japan.

What's the easiest way to bang if you don't drink alcohol at all? I hear Jap girls can be quite uptight if you don't get em drunk. And they won't drink if you don't.

Great reports from Armogan and infinitejest.

Do clubs really have female only areas?! I couldn't believe my eyes when I read that part!

How big are these areas? Do they include bars or do females have to mix with males when ordering a drink?

Yeah a lot of the Japanese clubs I went to in Osaka this summer had a girls only area where the girls sit off to the side. I remember at least one in Tokyo had this too. I think it's like the female only train cars lol. The girls sometimes need a safe haven from uncalibrated drunk japanese men.

Japanese clubs are hard to pull from. Girls are worried about looking like sluts. I've had girls go home with me but make me walk out first and wait around the corner. Or they want to meet you the next day and have a proper date, which is even more annoying, especially to a traveler.

The biggest problem in Japan is there are a lot of white guys living there who speak Japanese. Some actually have real jobs too. So in any big city most hot girls who are open to foreigners already have easier, safer options than a ONS with a guy who can barely say hello.

I had a layover in Tokyo on my way to Cambodia last week. It was as Thur and I only had time to meet my an ex gf to give her key back and get shit out of her apt I left there.

She wouldn't let me sleep over but got me a place in a Manga Cafe. She bought me dinner and we chatted several hours. It was so weird that at the same time she's breaking up with me she's hinting at a marriage proposal.

Japanese girls definitely are immature emotionally. But it's what makes them so sweet. I wish I had gone there in my 20s and learned Japanese. I'd be killing it. But I pretty much rely on girls who are fluent in English or grab 7s for ons from a club or party. But that gets boring.
