4. JapanCupid
Not to be confused with OkCupid, JapanCupid is a part of the Cupid Media Group. This has made it a less popular platform for people in Japan, as Japanese people looking for serious relationships will be focusing on long-term options. Still, JapanCupid is popular with those who are not staying http://www.datingranking.net/es/citas-de-jugador in the country for long. People use it to look for partners who want to marry into the culture.
It’s unfortunate that, in 2022, not much seems to have changed. Another friend of mine logged in for the first time and was inundated with a number of obviously fake profiles. They soon deleted their account in response. “It’s always weird when someone claims to be a Korean pop star that is actually old Japanese. man.”
5. MatchAlarm
MatchAlarm was a matching website that suggested a new person to you every morning at 8 a.m. based on the social information it acquired from your Facebook profile and your behavior. You had 16 hours to respond to an alarm after which it would disappear, and would require three coins (a part of the in-app payment system) in order to tap the “Might Like You” button. Unfortunately, MatchAlarm is no more and cannot be accessed anymore.
6. Omiai
The largest dating site in Japan that is based on your social media information, this quick and easy way to find your perfect match. This is another konkatsu (matchmaking) service, so if you’re looking for a serious relationship then this could be a good option, but if you’re trying to keep things casual, Omiai might not be the site for you. The site allows you to filter search results by nationality and income level and some users said this made the site seem more for rich people or people who are looking for someone to spoil them, than a serious dating website. No one had any complaints about the website in general, though.
For daters in 2022 with the Japanese language skills to keep up, Omiai has refreshed itself like Tinder and Instagram use, focusing on it being a relationship/marriage-centric app. If you’re really looking to find a marriage partner, this is probably your best option when it comes to dating apps.
7. Tapple
The app Tapple lets you find your perfect match by filtering through what sort of person you’re interested in. All you do is specify which interest group(s) to join and then follow them! You can skip or like profiles based on their niche interests and personal criteria. If you don’t feel connected, then swipe left to pass.
User results may vary, but for the few I met, it was a bit of a double-edged sword. They seemed very excited to meet and talk on this app but then when it came time to meet in person, they became uncertain. One guy was quoted as saying he would rather talk with and date online exclusively. I also talked to a number of foreign female users who had similar results, so this might not be the best choice if you are looking for something serious.
Thanks to a design overhaul, Tapple is now an up-to-date app about relationships and friendships. TV commercials have also helped bring competition to the market. Young people in their 20s are increasingly interested in this type of app because they want a connection that could lead to love, even if it’s just for friends. This can be a great starting stage for those who are new to online dating or not yet ready to have live interactions with personals.
