hip hop clubs are the no. 1 spot in my experience. look for hip hop clubs in whatever city you are in. a lot of Japanese people think westerners are into hip hop so they go there to hunt. another location are british or irish style pubs like the chain "HUB", again, because they think that is what we like. But you gotta go late like 1 am. Dont go there for after work drinks or whatever. Another one which is choke full of gaijin hunters are the "language exchange" meetups. Get the meetup app or go to the site and look them up in your city. Seriously a lot of women are there to hunt foreigners. Usually when I went there I mingled with some ladies and then kind of focus on one that seems most interested. Later some people go home, some proceed to go to a bar or club. Tell her you will join the group going to the club and ask her to come. If she is into you she will join. Well, alcohol helps. You have a high chance of ending up in bed with that chick the same night. These 3 things worked for me in multiple cities such as Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, Kanazawa, Fukuoka and Kitakyushu. Haven't been to the north yet but I assume it works everywhere.

I don't have anything against LBH either, but... they should know there's a downside, too. I've witnessed some of these guys who marry the Japanese girlfriend and it becomes apparent after years of misery that she was a crazy person which is why she went for the gaijin. Then they divorce but she's got his kid or kids and his house. Then she moves on to find another foreigner to be with. With gaijin hunters it's often not much better because even though she may not be crazy, she may not be that into him, either. If it's desperation because she can't find a Japanese guy, she doesn't care about your personality or your looks while she's desperate but after being together for years, there's nothing there for her to stay interested either.
I can confirm everything here. It's sad because the kid suffers if they ever have one. Coincidentally (maybe not) every Wasian kid where I get this vibe from their parents are divorced. I've had dinner at their houses before and you could hear a pin drop. That's partially the reason why I don't like LBH and Gaijin Hunters
and the other things that few people talked about is that when a Japanese woman suddenly disappear from your sight for no reason. simps won't say that, they would rather blame themselves than pointing this out and talking about it. they won't even talk about the depression waves that come and go. they will suck it up and never show that.
It's obvious she made this video mad. It's very common for these western women to go to Japan and feel infuriated and undesirable because both Japanese men AND foreigner men have better options in the Japanese women. Like leagues better. For the first time in their life they realize they might be low quality and lack femininity in terms of dating. So she has to go online and shame men she call losers for dating Japanese women. Because apparently Japanese women aren't on the same standard as western women so you must be a loser for dating them :)
This is a Japanese perspective, but it's interesting that the opposite phenomenon is happening now. People who are not popular in Japan go to other countries and people who like kpop and Asians come up to them like it's a status symbol, but they have no intention of getting married. They just want the accessory of being Asian.
Big difference in how extroverts and introverts are treated in western versus eastern cultures. Introverts have traits that are in higher demand in Japan that generally aren’t appreciated in the US. I don’t think their success can be explained away solely by gaijin hunters. Just saying
I can agree with this. I can be outgoing when I need to be, but I prefer small groups and more focused relationships with people. Instead of trying to date 1000 women, I narrow down to people I know I can be happy with without needing to compromise who I am as a person.
Exact same thing was said back in the 90s, except then they were called "Charisma Man". The difference was that even the most hopeless Western guys back in the 90s could still get a regular J-girl (non-ho) if they got on a plane to Japan and hung around for a week or so, unlike today.
everywhere is better for MEN than the west. Western women come to japan expecting better treatment, get surprised by hyper competition with local women who are better than them in eveyrway
It's such a massive generalization. I could say the same thing about Japanese women who go overseas on a working holiday. I could say all these women havent fit into Japanese society and dont have boyfriends so they are escaping to overseas. Any great looking Japanese women arent going overseas on a working holiday or are trying to meet foreigners as Japanese guys have been giving them a lot of attention since a young age so thry dont need to look elsewhere.
Some perspectives from someone who lived there in the early 90's. I was not a Sheldon but I was no lady killer but pretty much everyone did well back then. One day a guy who was a stud back in the US came to me and told me he'd been in Japan for 2 months and had not gotten laid. I told him he just needed to adjust to the girls tastes here. He made himself look more clean-cut, got some nice clothes, and eventually figured out what the girls wanted to hear. Then he just slayed it. One night I saw him in a bar and he told me he just completed a hat-trick. Three girls in one day. So a lot of it is finding out what they want and giving it to them. Back then there weren't that many gaijin hunters and it was just as hard to get the "non-gaijin hunter girls". But occassionally you'd see a total LBH with a gorgeous "regular" Japanese girl. Why? Because he was an early Japanese Otaku and he picked up Japanese language when none of the gaijin could speak. He integrated himself into Japanese environments and was able to get regular girls. My japanese was not that good but I was really jealous of him and the other guys who I saw who could do that. Probably not possible today. Last LBH goes both ways. I've found that the Japanese girls who come to the States often have some type of issue that prevented them from finding a "good" guy in Japan and had some issues/baggage. It's not just with Japan. It's anywhere. Generally if you are successful in your country, you are not going to leave. That's why a lot of, not all, people who live in foreign countries and are long-timers, generally are LBHs or have some issues that people back home pick up on quickly but people in the new countries don't.
Great perspectives from back in the day and particularly about integrating goes a long way, I think that is still true if you understand some of the culture and language it will help alot when added with your foreign appeal. Have you been back recently? I studied there in mid 2010s and I wouldnt say they were falling on every sheldon's lap unequivocally, but certainly it was much easier than in their home country for the most part. And speaking a little Japanese goes a hell of a long way. Foreigners are much more prevalent now so makes sense why they do not go for every LBH who speaks a bit of Japanese, doesnt hurt to have a bit of basic hygiene and not walk around in anime tshirts, but honestly an average guy not from the Far East still stands out alot in Japan and that goes a long way, extra points if they are White or raised in a Western country. I raised this with another OG from around your time on twitter that it's still fairly easy to pick up here, and for some reason he threw his toys out the pram and said I must be hanging around 4s or prostitutes 😂 I dont get the saltiness from some people who idealise the past. Reminds me of the foreigners here who get weird and dont want to be around other foreigners, because they want to be the special one in the group. So sad
Anybody who lives in another country is a Loser? Many American men are shocked at how well treated They are outside the US and the west. When I lived in Sweden, American girls would come there and get really upset. They said I don’t like this place. There’s too many beautiful girls. You could say a lot of guys stay in their own country, and have unhappy lives. So they must be the losers for not going abroad.
@@77SilentAssassin77 Yes. Obviously, it's an issue if you don't fit in with your own people. The fisherman fishes where the fish bite so leaving your nation and seeking options outside the domestic realm is only a logical course of action for unsuccesful men.
Your last advice is spot on. I have read many stories about that in Quora where people invested their lives and money and out of sudden the Japanese woman suddenly disappeared. like you don't actually know who you dealing with, she can be cool for a few months then the depression will raise on the surface and you need the guts to cut that off or be simp and try to fix her. I am sure if people read about the stories from people lived the experience from 80 and 90 they will be shocked. and you can detect the impact of that relationship on their kids. half and they sometimes call themselves not belonging to anywhere, whenever they go they feel ther are not being accepted.
If changing my location makes my quality of life better then I'm going to do it. I've learned that when I was in Japan my problems didn't come with me. It was a nice treat for my mental health. I may just need to make a permanent move.
Last 2 minutes are spot on bro, it’s certainly fun to have a genuine relationship here, but no shot am I spousal visamaxxing. I got too much respect for myself
You may have heard of the "Charisma Man" effect from the comic strips in the old NagMag and Japanzine magazines ...an LBH who knocks it out of the park with local ladies..until he is confronted by his nemesis..Western Woman.
Really good video. 13 year Japan veteran here. You are 100% on the money. It's even funnier when the English milkers get bored of English (when they get good at it) and start to switch it up for some German, French, or Spanish with a new boyfriend.
These "hunters" are frustrated because the foreiginers she's after (white guys with colored eyes/hair skinny in shape) always dump her and i dont blame her honestly...once you go to japan its pretty easy to become a player when you have so many options. She's right.
She's defo right on the Brad Pitt thing. Women's standards in Japan is completely different than in the West, for instance they don't like macho too much, and prefer thin guys, tall with thin nose, like young Hugh Grant. Sometimes even effeminate guys. So I wouldn't say "losers" as much as "less adapted".
I'm a loser back home, because I'm reserved introvert. While in Japan shyness and modesty are appreciated. Some people just don't fit into their original country society. There is no shame in fleeing somewhere else, where you feel more appropriated to the social norms.
holy fuck this guy is hilarious😂, this guy could definitely blow up but he creates such a niche genre of videos it doesn't reach a large audience. imma still watch tho keep up the good shit.
Damn dude you got a nice kitchen/kitchenette behind you For real though, 'successful with Japanese women' is such a sweeping statement. There are lots of gaijin hunters sure, but ultimately communication is the foundation of any relationship and people will always prefer people who they can really speak their mind with, so language knowledge plays the biggest role alongside personality, charm, etc. that applies when speaking to the opposite sex in your own country too. LBH is definitely a pretty new thing, very much online terminology seeping into the real world. Sure there are guys who get more 'play' abroad or in Japan specifically but that's usually not due to 'sincere' reasons like you say. It's not necessarily a bad thing but it is what it is.
I lived in Japan in the '90s and apparently it hasn't changed. Foreign women complain that the foreign guys are having such great success with girls. And it's very angry jealousy. And it's overblown. Guys, it's not that easy, maybe in Tokyo. Foreign girls are used to guys hitting on them at least once a day back home, They have never had to knock on the door. Probably their first dating experience in Japan will be another Foreigner. But let's get it straight. This girl sees a western guy with a Japanese girl and it makes her angry, whether that guy is good looking or not. Because she is on the shelf, and can t pull a foreign guy either. It's actually not some great disappointment when two foreigners meet up in Japan because they've already got some shared background and a shared interests. So don't think I'm crapping on that. But just know you will find some angry and desperate foreign women.
People been talking about this for years, probably decades. Also goes both ways. Awkward Japanese people study abroad and everyone wants to be their friend / date them.
So I’m just curious, when people say “Gaijin hunters” and “Foreigners” they’re usually talking about white Sheldon dudes, so I’m wondering what the experiences of like Hispanic men and colored men have in terms of dating. Do Japanese people (not just women) accept them too or nah?
I want to know too what they feel about arabs, latino etc. I feel like in Asia in general they are obsessed with white guys, especially if they are american or from north europe, less from other areas in the world.
It’ll vary by person. Not every Japanese person is like this. I’m Latino and I met a few gaijin hunters. Also went on some dates with non gaijin hunters. Currently doing LDR.
Sometimes yes, but it would be dishonest of me to say it's the same way for every foreigner. There is a clear bias towards whiter people in Japanese society as a whole. Now does that mean a person of color can't pull trim? You absolutely can, sometimes more so than any white person. But you'll have more challenges navigating through society and relationships, unfortunately.
I wouldn't say I was a loser back home, but definitely not some dude who got around, in retrospective, if I had put myself out there more often maybe it'd have been different; anyways, western women are too full of themselves lately so my current Japanese girlfriend is by far much better than whatever I had back home
I feel like the american standard for good looking guys is different than the british/european/australian standard cause that actor is 10/10 looks in aus too
I’m meeting right now one Japanese girl at my language school in America. It’s interesting. She seems to be somehow interested in me, always staring a conversation with me first, literally like 80% of all the interactions, and from her eyes I can quite clearly see she fancies me (at least a bit, that’s for 100%). Now, what should I think about this? To me, she is such a pretty girl, and I’ve been crushing her since I got into the classroom for the first time. It’s also obvious from her behaviour and interactions that she wants to become more “American”, she has been living in America for 7 months now. (From my experience, Japanese people are pretty much always very adaptable here and I have made so many friends from Japan also, I respect their culture and they know that). I don’t know if she likes the culture or not though. Anyway I’m so scared she is somehow strange or not normal, but so far I have always gotten a really good vibe and feeling from her, although I can maybe see some alarming signs, but no one is perfect right? Please man, can you give me any advice how to approach this situation? I don’t know what to really think about it. Thank you and I appreciate as always you legend!!! Be well!
@@yungjamez312 You know, the thing is, I’m involved with the Japanese community here at school, I’m very respectful, polite and kind person in nature, I don’t pretend anything. I treat everyone the same way. That’s why I like to interact and be friends with them, and I feel they like me also compare to others, somehow this works for me. If this would be possible for me in Japan in the middle of Japanese culture and society… well that’s the other question, but here in America, I’ve been able to make some really good friends with Japanese people. And then somehow naturally she crossed my way - my question was maybe more related to what should I expect, is she this type of hunter of foreign men or something else? That would be my main question, thanks man! I really appreciate your help!🙏🏼
@@ttg1302 You're over thinking it. Ask her out and you'll get a better feel for what kind of person she is. If she's kind and generous towards you then she probably genuinely likes you. Someone just using you will likely be more selfish. Either way it will probably be a good learning experience for you. Best of luck.
Although I didnt came for this reason I found wife here and after 10 years we going strong . Don't agree with giving rights , casue I'm working, and I got all I need .
I would rather be fetishized in Japan, Than worry if the girl in the states is a man. In my opinion LBH is no longer a LBH. If an LBH is considered a loser because he couldn't get a girl back in the states that changes. I agree with your Sheldon analogy, but if a guy gets comfortable around a woman his mindset will change. Also, he will not be socially awkward around a woman back home with the same beauty or who is average compared to the one he is with. Getting that experience and knowing women out there actually find you attractive gives you a big confidence boost, even if he gets rejected. This has been talked about a lot and several best selling books mentioned this. Jordan Peterson mentioned this in his lecture about preselection and having an abundance mindset.
Why we men we give women to power to define if we are "winners" or "losers"? I saw in my life many men that they are trash, but they get lot of women because they are good looking. I saw many great men with zero women because they were ugly or short. This is so ridicolous and i hate this gen z submission to women taste and nature.
Why we have to define everything? Why so judgemental? Here in Italy in you are not good looking, tall, with money and popular you will very probably struggle with women. You will have limited choice, lot of stress/drama, cheating, manipulation. This doesn't mean that you are a "loser", you are just not winning the genetic lottery or born in a rich family. That's all. Please stop judging people like that.
not winning the genetic lottery definitely means you're a loser. natural selection and/or mate seletion doesn't give a fuck about stuff like morals, virtues and hard work or whatever metric people like to think determines whether or not you're a loser in society
you know whats really funny is that I've seen a lof of various asian women in the US complain about the whole LBH thing, but when it comes time for them to date they date a white guy anyways.
Ok so definitely she’s caping, I must say tho IM MEXICAN I’m not your average white man and I just get back from Japan and I’m the month I was there I got multiple girls lines and actually dated one Japanese girl for sometime and now than I’m back, the girls here are mid compared to the Japanese girl, you can call me a dumb teenager but my main motivation on improving my Japanese skills is to be a ナンパmaster! 😂
Lmao, I had the exact same experience. Mexican-American in Japan and I stayed for a month. Encountered a few gaijin hunters and I went on a few dates (not with the gaijin hunters).
That’s great for you. I’m glad you did that. Taking a girl on a date doesn’t mean much tbh, (who wouldn’t want to be called pretty and treated to a meal?), and getting a LINE means even less.
She's basically just defining the term LBH in an exaggerated way. I would say "much more successful" rather than "very, very, very successful" with women in Japan than back home. I'm sure she would have no problem getting dates in Japan, but if she went to a western country, then she would become a LBH.
I’ve been to Japan five times, I live in Asia. There are nice girls everywhere and they treat you better than in the USA. You make a great point about her not getting any attention. Women live for attention?
11:00 Also dont go to japan just to have kids & family with the wrong person. In most east countries the laws are very outdated, if you divorce the kid's rights are going to be given 100% on the mom if she decides to take full custody.
I have been to Japan multiple times, and have visited 28 prefectures, and I have never really had any Japanese women interested in me that I know of. I speak decent Japanese, and most Japanese are just curious why I visited Iwate Prefecture, or Kochi Prefecture, or Saga prefecture etc. I have had more success with other gaijin women, especially ones that kinda look like me, with similar hair and eye color. Is this racism? possibly, but I don't dislike the Japanese, I have many Japanese friends, I just really don't think of them as a viable long term partner like I would someone of my own race.
People who go out to Japan out of lust are losers, but those who seek genuine companionship and to start a family over there are not because they are just fed up with putting up with the crap from the women in their country.
I always thought Ryan Boundless kinda fit the LBH criteria. Though he wasn't exactly a ladies man overseas or anything. I'm not hating on the guy, I do still check out his content once in a while.
most of the guys I have met just so happen to be nice but that’s the American ones but then you get a few country boys and then they act really weird and geeky to the point where it’s cringe as long as you contain yourself alittle bit and remember Japanese girls really don’t like guys who like anime a lot and display it too much, they also expect to be treated more romantic and affectionate since Japanese guys don’t do this stuff
It's mostly true. Look at all your subscribers, and mostly male in the other RUclips--95% all male lmao. Many all they talk about is their Japan wife or GF lol.
To be honest there is an entire ecosystem of channels from japanese (also korean) girls who go abroad to the west and vlog their "international relationship". I think women & men just consume this kind of content differently & care for different aspects of the same phenomenon
I guess I'm what you would consider an LBH back in America, and while I'm definitely not successful like the woman in the video was talking about (roster of hundreds of women), I've definitely had more dates and hookups here in Japan in one year than I did in 15 years back in America. I'm 40 though, so that probably affects my dating pool, and a lot of times the women I meet are more looking for serious relationships leading to marriage (because they are pushing 40 or in their 40s already) rather than hookups, but the younger women (18-29) and older women (50+) I've met seem more open to just having sex on the first date if both of us are interested and the date went well. But having to compete with yungjamez doesn't help my odds either lol. But I've also seen foreign men that are like fat, short, brown, old, etc., but still have a cute, young girlfriend and I don't understand how those guys get those kind of girls. I don't consider myself attractive (but I do have blue eyes and am white), but sometimes I'm just dumbfounded how those guys can get the type of girl I want but I can't.
Can you make a video on the word Gaijin? I see so many angry gaijin acting like it’s the n bomb. Just people with a victim mindset imo but would love to hear your take.
Isn't it a bit like the word "Jap" used to be. In the past most people didn't care about, even japanese people since it was innocent enough (just short ror japanese). Then it was considered more and more rude, until the only people who'd use it were people TRYING to offend. So nowadays you'd get in big trouble if you called someone a "Jap" in america because using such an outdated word signals to other people you're being offensive on purpose. Same thing is happening to "Gaijin". Most people don't mind but the word does have negative cronotations and is being slowly "phased out". I personally don't care about it in real life, most ppl I know take it as a meme word. But you definitely don't hear it on TV anymore and if someone did use it on TV it must be on purpose. Afterall they could have used a neutral word but CHOSE the one with negative cronotations. They're throwing shade & I could see how that might get some ppl offended
@@sblbb929 Japanese people generally aren’t worried about the word jap but that word is generally associated with the war. You could argue that because of that association, they have the right to be offended. The word gaijin on the other hand, is only offensive because many westerners want to be victims. It has no connection to the war, no connection to slavery. It’s just a shorted less formal version of a word. You could sympathise with those people trying to make a problem out of nothing, or you could cause less pain for everyone involved and tell people not to worry over nothing. Because that’s what it is, nothing. Japanese people wouldn’t use it on TV because they are incredibly polite and would generally choose to use more formal words. When its used anywhere else aside from TV, nobody cares except for people (probably Americans) with dyed hair on Twitter. It’s not used in a hateful way most of the time and if it is used in a hateful way, it’s bad (just like every other word in dictionary). People who speak no Japanese are offended by the word because someone else told them to be (madness). You’re only causing people pain by telling them to “look out for this slur about you”. Then they hear the word and get mad when it wasn’t even used negatively. Getting offended by a word like that is a sure way to know that your life is very privileged. There is no benefit to getting mad about it or empathising with those people who are mad over it because it causing pain for no reason and makes cultural relations slightly worse over something silly imo. Thoughts?
I love gaijin hunter's but it's great dating woman that don't speak English and communicating in Japanese. Definitely the way to go to improve your japanese.

That's how I met my wife. 😂 She came to north America.
Some perspectives from someone who lived there in the early 90's. I was not a Sheldon but I was no lady killer but pretty much everyone did well back then. One day a guy who was a stud back in the US came to me and told me he'd been in Japan for 2 months and had not gotten laid. I told him he just needed to adjust to the girls tastes here. He made himself look more clean-cut, got some nice clothes, and eventually figured out what the girls wanted to hear. Then he just slayed it. One night I saw him in a bar and he told me he just completed a hat-trick. Three girls in one day. So a lot of it is finding out what they want and giving it to them.
Back then there weren't that many gaijin hunters and it was just as hard to get the "non-gaijin hunter girls". But occassionally you'd see a total LBH with a gorgeous "regular" Japanese girl. Why? Because he was an early Japanese Otaku and he picked up Japanese language when none of the gaijin could speak. He integrated himself into Japanese environments and was able to get regular girls. My japanese was not that good but I was really jealous of him and the other guys who I saw who could do that. Probably not possible today.
Last LBH goes both ways. I've found that the Japanese girls who come to the States often have some type of issue that prevented them from finding a "good" guy in Japan and had some issues/baggage. It's not just with Japan. It's anywhere. Generally if you are successful in your country, you are not going to leave. That's why a lot of, not all, people who live in foreign countries and are long-timers, generally are LBHs or have some issues that people back home pick up on quickly but people in the new countries don't.
Great perspectives from back in the day and particularly about integrating goes a long way, I think that is still true if you understand some of the culture and language it will help alot when added with your foreign appeal. Have you been back recently? I studied there in mid 2010s and I wouldnt say they were falling on every sheldon's lap unequivocally, but certainly it was much easier than in their home country for the most part. And speaking a little Japanese goes a hell of a long way. Foreigners are much more prevalent now so makes sense why they do not go for every LBH who speaks a bit of Japanese, doesnt hurt to have a bit of basic hygiene and not walk around in anime tshirts, but honestly an average guy not from the Far East still stands out alot in Japan and that goes a long way, extra points if they are White or raised in a Western country.
I raised this with another OG from around your time on twitter that it's still fairly easy to pick up here, and for some reason he threw his toys out the pram and said I must be hanging around 4s or prostitutes 😂 I dont get the saltiness from some people who idealise the past. Reminds me of the foreigners here who get weird and dont want to be around other foreigners, because they want to be the special one in the group. So sad
Anybody who lives in another country is a Loser?
Many American men are shocked at how well treated They are outside the US and the west.
When I lived in Sweden, American girls would come there and get really upset. They said I don’t like this place. There’s too many beautiful girls.
You could say a lot of guys stay in their own country, and have unhappy lives. So they must be the losers for not going abroad.
What if you don't like or fit in with your country's culture, huh? What then? Is that an "issue"?
@@77SilentAssassin77 Yes. Obviously, it's an issue if you don't fit in with your own people. The fisherman fishes where the fish bite so leaving your nation and seeking options outside the domestic realm is only a logical course of action for unsuccesful men.
@@77SilentAssassin77yup
Your last advice is spot on.
I have read many stories about that in Quora where people invested their lives and money and out of sudden the Japanese woman suddenly disappeared.
like you don't actually know who you dealing with, she can be cool for a few months then the depression will raise on the surface and you need the guts to cut that off or be simp and try to fix her.
I am sure if people read about the stories from people lived the experience from 80 and 90 they will be shocked. and you can detect the impact of that relationship on their kids. half and they sometimes call themselves not belonging to anywhere, whenever they go they feel ther are not being accepted.
If changing my location makes my quality of life better then I'm going to do it. I've learned that when I was in Japan my problems didn't come with me. It was a nice treat for my mental health. I may just need to make a permanent move.
you had me at "karen vibe" lmao
Last 2 minutes are spot on bro, it’s certainly fun to have a genuine relationship here, but no shot am I spousal visamaxxing. I got too much respect for myself
That kitchen background is so real😂
LMAOO bro, your commentary is so good and on point. Keep doing these.
11:15 Excellent advice bro for many foreigners. A video about it more deeper would be great.
You may have heard of the "Charisma Man" effect from the comic strips in the old NagMag and Japanzine magazines ...an LBH who knocks it out of the park with local ladies..until he is confronted by his nemesis..Western Woman.
Really good video. 13 year Japan veteran here. You are 100% on the money.
It's even funnier when the English milkers get bored of English (when they get good at it) and start to switch it up for some German, French, or Spanish with a new boyfriend.
Yungjamez posted, today’s a good day 🤝
It's been used for years my friend. It's not that your are late to the party. It's just that you are young or just coming around to such terminology.
Bro got beef with gaijin hunters 🙏 me too
These "hunters" are frustrated because the foreiginers she's after (white guys with colored eyes/hair skinny in shape) always dump her and i dont blame her honestly...once you go to japan its pretty easy to become a player when you have so many options. She's right.
Beef *with* gaijin hunters ❌
Beef *in* Japanese hunters ✅
She's defo right on the Brad Pitt thing.
Women's standards in Japan is completely different than in the West, for instance they don't like macho too much, and prefer thin guys, tall with thin nose, like young Hugh Grant.
Sometimes even effeminate guys.
So I wouldn't say "losers" as much as "less adapted".
I'm a loser back home, because I'm reserved introvert. While in Japan shyness and modesty are appreciated. Some people just don't fit into their original country society. There is no shame in fleeing somewhere else, where you feel more appropriated to the social norms.
We just coined the term “Sheldon” 😂.
Looks so British “not a complement” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 im dead
I really love your honesty! Thanks for your videos!
LBH Long Blond Handsome
holy fuck this guy is hilarious😂, this guy could definitely blow up but he creates such a niche genre of videos it doesn't reach a large audience. imma still watch tho keep up the good shit.
Gaijin hunters are female Japanese equivalent of American passports bros
Damn dude you got a nice kitchen/kitchenette behind you
For real though, 'successful with Japanese women' is such a sweeping statement. There are lots of gaijin hunters sure, but ultimately communication is the foundation of any relationship and people will always prefer people who they can really speak their mind with, so language knowledge plays the biggest role alongside personality, charm, etc. that applies when speaking to the opposite sex in your own country too. LBH is definitely a pretty new thing, very much online terminology seeping into the real world. Sure there are guys who get more 'play' abroad or in Japan specifically but that's usually not due to 'sincere' reasons like you say. It's not necessarily a bad thing but it is what it is.
6:40 Naw bro you did not have to take it that far 💀 Got me dead though
I lived in Japan in the '90s and apparently it hasn't changed. Foreign women complain that the foreign guys are having such great success with girls. And it's very angry jealousy. And it's overblown. Guys, it's not that easy, maybe in Tokyo.
Foreign girls are used to guys hitting on them at least once a day back home, They have never had to knock on the door. Probably their first dating experience in Japan will be another Foreigner.
But let's get it straight. This girl sees a western guy with a Japanese girl and it makes her angry, whether that guy is good looking or not. Because she is on the shelf, and can t pull a foreign guy either.
It's actually not some great disappointment when two foreigners meet up in Japan because they've already got some shared background and a shared interests. So don't think I'm crapping on that.
But just know you will find some angry and desperate foreign women.
People been talking about this for years, probably decades. Also goes both ways. Awkward Japanese people study abroad and everyone wants to be their friend / date them.
Oh damn I thought LBH were people "back home" jealous of us for being abroad 🤣
So I’m just curious, when people say “Gaijin hunters” and “Foreigners” they’re usually talking about white Sheldon dudes, so I’m wondering what the experiences of like Hispanic men and colored men have in terms of dating. Do Japanese people (not just women) accept them too or nah?
I want to know too what they feel about arabs, latino etc. I feel like in Asia in general they are obsessed with white guys, especially if they are american or from north europe, less from other areas in the world.
@@maxranierus3574
Yeah, no s***
lol
It’ll vary by person. Not every Japanese person is like this. I’m Latino and I met a few gaijin hunters. Also went on some dates with non gaijin hunters. Currently doing LDR.
Sometimes yes, but it would be dishonest of me to say it's the same way for every foreigner. There is a clear bias towards whiter people in Japanese society as a whole. Now does that mean a person of color can't pull trim? You absolutely can, sometimes more so than any white person. But you'll have more challenges navigating through society and relationships, unfortunately.
If the girl comes back to your home country she's completely dependent on you. Same issue but for her. 11:41
Yes. Much more viable for a relationship than the other way around
11:39 bro I already pulled my pants down, wdym you don't want a video? 😢
There was already a term for this called "Charisma Man/Men". LBH is simply a new term for something defined already.
I wouldn't say I was a loser back home, but definitely not some dude who got around, in retrospective, if I had put myself out there more often maybe it'd have been different; anyways, western women are too full of themselves lately so my current Japanese girlfriend is by far much better than whatever I had back home
aren't you giving too much of a blanket statement for western women
@@tfyk5623 Yeah, maybe I am, but this is based on my experience, I have a few girl buddies on the internet who're definitely not like this

I’m meeting right now one Japanese girl at my language school in America. It’s interesting. She seems to be somehow interested in me, always staring a conversation with me first, literally like 80% of all the interactions, and from her eyes I can quite clearly see she fancies me (at least a bit, that’s for 100%). Now, what should I think about this? To me, she is such a pretty girl, and I’ve been crushing her since I got into the classroom for the first time. It’s also obvious from her behaviour and interactions that she wants to become more “American”, she has been living in America for 7 months now. (From my experience, Japanese people are pretty much always very adaptable here and I have made so many friends from Japan also, I respect their culture and they know that). I don’t know if she likes the culture or not though.
Anyway I’m so scared she is somehow strange or not normal, but so far I have always gotten a really good vibe and feeling from her, although I can maybe see some alarming signs, but no one is perfect right?
Please man, can you give me any advice how to approach this situation? I don’t know what to really think about it. Thank you and I appreciate as always you legend!!! Be well!
Just be confident and go up and ask for her contact info. Set up a date within a few days, minimize the texting
@@yungjamez312 You know, the thing is, I’m involved with the Japanese community here at school, I’m very respectful, polite and kind person in nature, I don’t pretend anything. I treat everyone the same way. That’s why I like to interact and be friends with them, and I feel they like me also compare to others, somehow this works for me. If this would be possible for me in Japan in the middle of Japanese culture and society… well that’s the other question, but here in America, I’ve been able to make some really good friends with Japanese people. And then somehow naturally she crossed my way - my question was maybe more related to what should I expect, is she this type of hunter of foreign men or something else? That would be my main question, thanks man! I really appreciate your help!🙏🏼
@@ttg1302 You're over thinking it. Ask her out and you'll get a better feel for what kind of person she is. If she's kind and generous towards you then she probably genuinely likes you. Someone just using you will likely be more selfish. Either way it will probably be a good learning experience for you. Best of luck.
Tkyosam sent me here gotta say this guy knows his stuff I agree with everything he says as a long term gaijin.
Ah snap, that dude had fell completely out my field of awareness. Thank you.
Although I didnt came for this reason I found wife here and after 10 years we going strong . Don't agree with giving rights , casue I'm working, and I got all I need .
Go where you're treated best.
Must be a nomad capitalist! For people who are only concerned about women go to an Eastern European country….
Unfortunately the only thing good in those countries is the food n beer and if u like soccer ⚽. Everything else bites.
I would rather be fetishized in Japan,
Than worry if the girl in the states is a man.
In my opinion LBH is no longer a LBH. If an LBH is considered a loser because he couldn't get a girl back in the states that changes. I agree with your Sheldon analogy, but if a guy gets comfortable around a woman his mindset will change. Also, he will not be socially awkward around a woman back home with the same beauty or who is average compared to the one he is with. Getting that experience and knowing women out there actually find you attractive gives you a big confidence boost, even if he gets rejected. This has been talked about a lot and several best selling books mentioned this. Jordan Peterson mentioned this in his lecture about preselection and having an abundance mindset.
Why we men we give women to power to define if we are "winners" or "losers"? I saw in my life many men that they are trash, but they get lot of women because they are good looking. I saw many great men with zero women because they were ugly or short. This is so ridicolous and i hate this gen z submission to women taste and nature.
LBH has been used since way before i even lived there and that was back in 2012-2014
Now they changed. they are passport bros.
@@mohammedsaad64 no necessarily. Passport bros actually get women. LBH MIGHT scrape by. They aren't the same.
Another video spitting facts, that's the way🤙🏼
Love the content as always bro, keep it up, Japan by 2025
Why we have to define everything? Why so judgemental? Here in Italy in you are not good looking, tall, with money and popular you will very probably struggle with women. You will have limited choice, lot of stress/drama, cheating, manipulation. This doesn't mean that you are a "loser", you are just not winning the genetic lottery or born in a rich family. That's all. Please stop judging people like that.
not winning the genetic lottery definitely means you're a loser. natural selection and/or mate seletion doesn't give a fuck about stuff like morals, virtues and hard work or whatever metric people like to think determines whether or not you're a loser in society
It’s a generation issue thing
Women really dislike men this generation
It's always an American woman complaining about LBH 😂
And its always American men not able to keep up with women's rights.
@@lauriey6089 wouldn't know, I'm not American 😂
you know whats really funny is that I've seen a lof of various asian women in the US complain about the whole LBH thing, but when it comes time for them to date they date a white guy anyways.

Ok so definitely she’s caping, I must say tho IM MEXICAN I’m not your average white man and I just get back from Japan and I’m the month I was there I got multiple girls lines and actually dated one Japanese girl for sometime and now than I’m back, the girls here are mid compared to the Japanese girl, you can call me a dumb teenager but my main motivation on improving my Japanese skills is to be a ナンパmaster! 😂
Lmao, I had the exact same experience. Mexican-American in Japan and I stayed for a month. Encountered a few gaijin hunters and I went on a few dates (not with the gaijin hunters).
Getting her Line is easy - especially if she wants to improve her English... the date is the only one that counts
@@AliceinJapanaland That’s true, but hey from not having any line to having a bunch I think is some progress
That’s great for you. I’m glad you did that. Taking a girl on a date doesn’t mean much tbh, (who wouldn’t want to be called pretty and treated to a meal?), and getting a LINE means even less.
Where to find gaijin hunters?
Imagine being a "lbh" and going to Japan to be rejected by the gaijin hunters too so you make a anger video about it lol I joke I joke
Bro you're blowing up, good to see
I can confirm, japanese girls say I'm handsome, European girls get scared if I approach them
She's basically just defining the term LBH in an exaggerated way. I would say "much more successful" rather than "very, very, very successful" with women in Japan than back home. I'm sure she would have no problem getting dates in Japan, but if she went to a western country, then she would become a LBH.
I’ve been to Japan five times, I live in Asia. There are nice girls everywhere and they treat you better than in the USA.
You make a great point about her not getting any attention. Women live for attention?
100%.
I like to call it hunting the white wolf or riding the white horse.
I actually was hanging out with a bunch of friends who were friends with her and we met at a bar once before
11:00
Also dont go to japan just to have kids & family with the wrong person.
In most east countries the laws are very outdated, if you divorce the kid's rights are going to be given 100% on the mom if she decides to take full custody.
I have been to Japan multiple times, and have visited 28 prefectures, and I have never really had any Japanese women interested in me that I know of. I speak decent Japanese, and most Japanese are just curious why I visited Iwate Prefecture, or Kochi Prefecture, or Saga prefecture etc. I have had more success with other gaijin women, especially ones that kinda look like me, with similar hair and eye color. Is this racism? possibly, but I don't dislike the Japanese, I have many Japanese friends, I just really don't think of them as a viable long term partner like I would someone of my own race.
Bro whyyyy my name is Sheldon whyyy only Sheldon broooo!!! 😭😭
Dam, I feel personally attacked
People who go out to Japan out of lust are losers, but those who seek genuine companionship and to start a family over there are not because they are just fed up with putting up with the crap from the women in their country.
Look up Japanese wife kidnapping the kids.
I always thought Ryan Boundless kinda fit the LBH criteria. Though he wasn't exactly a ladies man overseas or anything. I'm not hating on the guy, I do still check out his content once in a while.
That Eddie dude looked fine…
good video jamez keep up the good work dawg
Just straight facts.
10:54 you have no power here, gandalf the gaijin!
most of the guys I have met just so happen to be nice but that’s the American ones but then you get a few country boys and then they act really weird and geeky to the point where it’s cringe as long as you contain yourself alittle bit and remember Japanese girls really don’t like guys who like anime a lot and display it too much, they also expect to be treated more romantic and affectionate since Japanese guys don’t do this stuff
Sheldon catching strays 😆
I lost it at the prototype Sheldon rant. Freaking hilarious 😭 So damn true though!
It's mostly true. Look at all your subscribers, and mostly male in the other RUclips--95% all male lmao. Many all they talk about is their Japan wife or GF lol.
To be honest there is an entire ecosystem of channels from japanese (also korean) girls who go abroad to the west and vlog their "international relationship".
I think women & men just consume this kind of content differently & care for different aspects of the same phenomenon
Marriage for the citizenship was the trend back in my days I recall.
Eddie redmayne looks like he drinks blood on weekends 😂
I guess I'm what you would consider an LBH back in America, and while I'm definitely not successful like the woman in the video was talking about (roster of hundreds of women), I've definitely had more dates and hookups here in Japan in one year than I did in 15 years back in America. I'm 40 though, so that probably affects my dating pool, and a lot of times the women I meet are more looking for serious relationships leading to marriage (because they are pushing 40 or in their 40s already) rather than hookups, but the younger women (18-29) and older women (50+) I've met seem more open to just having sex on the first date if both of us are interested and the date went well. But having to compete with yungjamez doesn't help my odds either lol. But I've also seen foreign men that are like fat, short, brown, old, etc., but still have a cute, young girlfriend and I don't understand how those guys get those kind of girls. I don't consider myself attractive (but I do have blue eyes and am white), but sometimes I'm just dumbfounded how those guys can get the type of girl I want but I can't.
Can you make a video on the word Gaijin? I see so many angry gaijin acting like it’s the n bomb. Just people with a victim mindset imo but would love to hear your take.
Isn't it a bit like the word "Jap" used to be. In the past most people didn't care about, even japanese people since it was innocent enough (just short ror japanese). Then it was considered more and more rude, until the only people who'd use it were people TRYING to offend. So nowadays you'd get in big trouble if you called someone a "Jap" in america because using such an outdated word signals to other people you're being offensive on purpose.
Same thing is happening to "Gaijin". Most people don't mind but the word does have negative cronotations and is being slowly "phased out". I personally don't care about it in real life, most ppl I know take it as a meme word. But you definitely don't hear it on TV anymore and if someone did use it on TV it must be on purpose. Afterall they could have used a neutral word but CHOSE the one with negative cronotations. They're throwing shade & I could see how that might get some ppl offended
@@sblbb929 Japanese people generally aren’t worried about the word jap but that word is generally associated with the war. You could argue that because of that association, they have the right to be offended.
The word gaijin on the other hand, is only offensive because many westerners want to be victims. It has no connection to the war, no connection to slavery. It’s just a shorted less formal version of a word. You could sympathise with those people trying to make a problem out of nothing, or you could cause less pain for everyone involved and tell people not to worry over nothing. Because that’s what it is, nothing. Japanese people wouldn’t use it on TV because they are incredibly polite and would generally choose to use more formal words. When its used anywhere else aside from TV, nobody cares except for people (probably Americans) with dyed hair on Twitter. It’s not used in a hateful way most of the time and if it is used in a hateful way, it’s bad (just like every other word in dictionary). People who speak no Japanese are offended by the word because someone else told them to be (madness). You’re only causing people pain by telling them to “look out for this slur about you”. Then they hear the word and get mad when it wasn’t even used negatively.
Getting offended by a word like that is a sure way to know that your life is very privileged. There is no benefit to getting mad about it or empathising with those people who are mad over it because it causing pain for no reason and makes cultural relations slightly worse over something silly imo. Thoughts?
Hate to break it to you, but odds are you are dating Gaijin Hunters too.
lmao the proto sheldon... comedy gold
This dude broadcasting from his share house ?! Hahaha the hell
I think it’s good and fine if someone is a LBH and moved to Japan, but I also think we should tell those guys to not be LBh.
Off topic, but Eddie Redmayne is a W actor tbh
if you getting authentic love in home contry you will not get kind of love like that anywhere. Also your bicep looks big asf king
Why you hating on Sheldon cooper like that
Did you ever attend any of Julien Blanc's seminars?
I love gaijin hunter's but it's great dating woman that don't speak English and communicating in Japanese. Definitely the way to go to improve your japanese.
he didnt coin the term. chinese in china use the term LBH for so many years. probably 10 years almost
