How do you do, fellow Japanese woman lovers?

Boomers out there rawdogging Japan with no data, no tattoos, and no idea what kimchichiwa is . Getting around with paper maps.And y'all wondering why they get all the women and money. Shaking my head's.

>>2915735
Anyone who claims Japan is JBW in 2026 is an out of touch boomer. An average Korean man performs miles better than a white Chad. White people are no longer sought after now that their civilisations are on the decline.

I don't even know what this comment means
>>2915735
Has to be a troll, no one is that unselfish aware...right?

I see the thread title brought back the indian poster, he's been gone a few days

>>2915750
By indian poster you mean yourself accusing everyone of being Indian?

>>2915748
I don't understand your comment. The white guy is saying he got rejected, but he's clearly a dweeb maybe an actual incel. I saw a white guy yesterday with a man bun trying to adopt the jap aesthetic. Looked ridiculous to me but he was a good looking guy and had a very attractive asian gf so good for him

I'm going to Japan in a few weeks. I fly into Tokyo, will head to Kyoto for the traditionalism. Where else should I go? I have about 2 days of unplanned stuff in the middle of Tokyo and going to Kyoto. Can I sneak in a cheeky small town on the way in between? Is it easy to change rail tickets last minute?

I just want a comfy stay in Japan. Can I survive in a capsule hotel for two weeks without seeing the sun? I've never been to Japan before but I heard it's an introverts dream.

Here’s the /jpg/ discord for anyone interested

Does anyone know any good date spots around Osaka in December? I'm meeting up with a Japanese lady I've been messaging since my last holiday. We are already planning to see the illuminations at Nijo castle which she seem excited about so what else is recommended for impressing Japanese women?

>>2915748

>>2915826
Take her to a nice onsen spa resort.

>>2915738
Koreans probably do well because they are fluent in Japanese. As someone put it in East Asia the Japanese are the reserved, stiff upper lip British types and the Koreans are the wild, passionate Italians. You can see how that might be advantageous in a meat market.
White Chads do fine in Japan. That said, the problem with White Chads is they are dilettantes who with rare exception aren't looking to settle down ever (much less during their adventure in Japan). Asian women, even more so than their Western counterparts, are in a hurry to settle down and start making babies.
Korean men are discouraged from marrying non-Koreans, so they probably aren't cruising Japan for wives either.

>>2915826
Nijo castle is in Kyoto anon, or am I having a seizure

>>2915960
You're right to push back here — Nijo Jo is located in Kyoto, Japan. Perhaps the other poster confused Osaka Castle and Nijo Jo due to similar styles of castles and proximity.

For as polite and socially courteous the Japanese are, they certainly are blase about washing their hands after a toilet visit

>>2915826
That sounds good, although it may be for a later date as sharing a bath seems a little forward for a first or second date.
>>2915960
>>2916060
Yes I know it's in Kyoto we are taking the train to see it, she lives in Osaka but we don't mind going to places nearby (I should have made it clearer in my first post), I was also thinking of taking her to Hikone or mt koya as she mentioned she likes nature.

>>2916070
They don't finger they asshoe like you do creep

>>2915577
Reposting in new bread.

>>2916117
>>2916117
I mean what's your goal here, to bang her? Or you actually want to make her your girlfriend
My advice is really only good for the first
But Ive been fairly successful here on my trip so far with tapple
Lemme know, also include your jp and her eigo level

There does seem to be more police/ambulance sirens and motorbike road hooligan sounds in Osaka than I expected for a city in japan where people say everything is supposed to be clean, orderly, and kawaii.

>>2916117
Do you have any concept of how big Japan is? Mt Koya is hours and hours from Osaka, as is Hikone. Even Kyoto is pushing it for someone to meet from Osaka.

>>2916178
Kyoto is 25 minutes by train from Osaka.

>>2916181
By bullet train, yes, which costs 10x a normal train. Yokohama is also only 10 minutes from Tokyo if you go by Shinkansen

>>2916184
It's like 20 bucks anon...

>>2915724
Know your place. Asians have more right to travel Asia than non-Asians.

>>2916205
>>2916184
You are both exaggerating idiots

>>2916152
Hopefully both, I take you are hiring a private bath for your onsen dates? we have met in person on my last holiday and have been keeping in touch via email and Instagram but I don't think either our English or Japanese are good so Google translate may be doing some heavy lifting like on our first meeting.

>>2916178
Yes I have been to Kyoto and Hikone on my last trip so an hour or so on the train seems alright to me, she seems pretty happy with Kyoto for a date so I'm guessing it's within her travel radius if not she says she loves animals so we could always do tennoji zoo or the aquarium.

How is Sapporo and Hokkaido in general these days? Been once on a winter trip 15+ years ago and remember it being much more relaxed and sovlful than the south.

>>2916209
Quiet dalite.
>>2916308
Winter is right around the corner. When do you plan to come?

>>2916333
More of feeling out than actively planning right now. I think I'd like to go in the summer though. I've lived most of my life decently close to the arctic so I'm in no hurry to do my own winter trips(the previous was a prize from a workplace contest) to places that get snow.

>>2916301
I've never done an onsen date like I said I'm just meeting girls one off for dates if you want something s little more serious, you could do that
I'd always recommend "doing something" rather than seeing something if both your speaking levels are meh, since sightseeing leaves alot of empty time, but all my advice is probably useless since you already have met and have previous experience with each other, GL

?

>>2916205
I live in Japan. Fucking nobody is going to use a bullet train to travel from Kyoto to Osaka, unless it’s a business trip or something and covered by the company.

>>2916386
>AI screenshot
When someone lives “in Osaka,” I doubt that means they live AT Osaka Station. It might take her as long as 30 minutes or more just to get to Osaka Station itself. You retards don’t realize how big cities like Tokyo or Osaka are. People who live “in New York” don’t all live inside Penn Station

>>2916395
You have no clue what you're talking about, first off the shinkansens don't even depart from Osaka, it's all Shin Osaka and that station is extremely easy to get to all across the city for that exact reason
And why the fuck would you not take a shinkansen if given the option? If it's a spur of the moment thing yeah sure just tap and go on the local or rapid express for 30-50 minutes
But if you're planning something why would you not take a faster train that you can schedule ahead of time

>>2916401
Because people who live here think differently from tourists. It’s not sustainable take a bullet train from Kyoto to Osaka just because it saves time.

>>2916403
I agree generally sure but that's not the situation here
it's a one time date he's doing with that lady lmao, why are you so mad people take shinkansens to save time?

>>2915748
Are there ANY countries that are JBW?

>>2916404
God, I have no idea desu. Is it that the lady lives in Japan so asking her to take a Shinkansen for a first date would be unreasonable, while for a tourist nothing matters? Or that what is considered “close” or “reasonable” is different between a resident and a tourist who considers taking a bullet train from Kyoto to Osaka a viable option? No, that couldn’t possibly be why I’m talking about it.

>>2916411
...what
>Hey let's go to Nijo today
>Would you rather take a 50 minute local train where we might be standing the whole time
>Or would you rather have reserved seats and a 15 minute trip
>Demo Nihon Desu dame shinkansen kudosai
Thats how it's playing out in your head, I see people literally take a shinkansen one stop in the green car all the time, is it a waste money?
Yup, but some people don't care or have too much money

I saw a jbw yesterday at the train station.

He was awfully tall, quite young like early 20s, very white and clear skin, little bit of "curl bro" muscle on him so he had some baby biceps, blonde hair with curtain style, and he was with an asian girl I assume is local and she...
had a near ogre of a face with some pink color dye in her hair. She wasn't even that short either.

I was actually a little surprised and thought he could have gotten cuter. Or cute, at all, since she really wasn't.
>jbw on life support

Holy fuck DisneySea is crowded, I was expecting a zoo but this is something else

>>2916423
Jbw is reality in every country. Here in Japan it's extremely rare to see a single white person. And almost always they are women. Inter racial couples are wmaf wf Indian male although occasionally you see wmbf

going in about a month.

what JDM/exclusive shit can i buy while there to sell back home for profit? or just cheap in japan in general. prioritizing $ per volume/space in my bag.

im already into watches and some tcg which are pretty optimal for this, but what else?

>>2916412
Not anymore. Stay home and stroke your penis while we take your women and replace you.

>>2915750
Your hatred for India reveals your inferiority complex. You will be replaced because you are inferior.

>>2916471
Cool, do us, the world, a favour and stay in incredible india. We have enough ubereats delivery drivers.

>>2916468
Kill yourself please
>>2916471
Lol lmao

>>2916414
I live here and I travel frequently for work. I don’t watch for how many people get off at each stop on the bullet train, but it is almost insane to imagine taking a bullet train for a date. A day trip, maybe. Not Nijo Castle. I’m not a green car one-stop user. That’s the equivalent of someone who taxis rather than riding the train to meet friends for dinner.

>>2916471
More like getting ganged up on and crowded out via sheer numbers and backstabbing.

>>2916482
Why are the Japanese rail tickets such a ripoff in price? Individual tickets are almost always cheaper. Do Japanese not understand the concept of a discount or bundled pricing?


Price Comparison Table

Tokyo Kanazawa Hokuriku Shinkansen (Kagayaki) ~¥14,600

Are JR passes an absolute meme now?
I brought one years ago before the price hike and it was perfect for me because i do shit spontaneously and I'd rather explore freely instead of sticking to a set itinerary. Last time I went i abused the fuck out of the pass and used as much rail transport as I could and bounced around all the major cities on the shinkansen as much as I could in the 10 days i was there. Basically I never knew where I was staying or visiting the next day till I decided the night prior.
I'm on the fence on going back again soon and maybe for longer but the prices are fucking extraordinary.

>>2916482
I still dont understand your reasoning
If people want to save time or waste money that's on them?
Just like flying first class or staying in business hotels
I'll fly first class but I always stay on business hotels, first class is a huge waste of money, and some people would say staying on business hotels is retarded but I hate spending on hotels
What's the issue here do you work for JRs rival company or what lmao

>>2916496
Do whatever you want. My original point is OP should not include places like Hikone and Mt Koya as viable places for a casual first/second date, even if it is literally possible to make it there by fucking bullet train. This is like an argument I had with an autist who insisted (though it is also literally true) that everyone has time to bicycle to commute to work.

>>2916503
Let's agree on something and call it quits friendo
Fuck bike fags

Is it a bad idea to arrive 2 hours before flight departure at Tokyo Haneda? Normally, I do 3 hours for international flights.

I need to transport myself from Osaka to Tokyo on the day of departure. If I take the earliest possible Shinkansen, I arrive at Haneda 2 hours before departure. I can't get there earlier on the same day.

The other alternative is to go to Tokyo 1 day before departure, and spend 1 hotel night somewhere in Tokyo.

Haneda is the only airport in Japan that offers a direct flight back home, so other airports are not a good option.

>>2916493
>Waaah why are jr passes so expensive waaah
>I abused them
>Waaaah why are they so expensive waaaaaah
>I sat on trains my entire trip I am very smart
>Waaaaaaah

Buy tickets now or risk the next fuel surcharge update being higher. What do you guys think?

>>2916575
Before the price hikes you could save a few bucks with the JR pass if you were smart about it. Now you have to abuse it and spend your entire vacation on a train to get your money's worth. I just buy shinkansen tickets when I need them and use suica for everything else.

>>2916579
I try to take local trains so I can sit and relax as I wait my 4 or 5 hours between hotel check out check in times, but I have 90 days so I'm not in a hurry

What is your guys luck with calling ahead to Apa or Toyoko letting them know you'll be arriving technically a day after check in. I don't wanna wait 6 hours after landing to be able to enter my room

>>2916583
>Be in Tokyo
>Book hotel online
>"Japan is living in 2050!"
>Try to check in
>No automated front desk
>"Sir sir, your hotel isn't here it's another hotel sir"
>Mfw I realize it's a Filipina Not a Japanese speaking to me
>Ask her to show me to my room
>She agrees

>>2916574
If you get to the airport 1 hour before international you have like a 5-10 minute window to make baggage. 2 hours youre fine

>>2916384
No it's given me a couple of ideas so it wasn't useless at all, and good luck with your dates as well.

>>2916504
OK, I can agree with that. Have a good day anon
