Japanese Dating is a place for single Japanese to meet online. I find that although the name is hip sounding enough, the site is a little less slick in its presentation. I guess you could say that it is extremely simple in color scheme despite having a large number of links to follow from the main page. Despite feeling uninspired by its amateurish interface, the site itself had many good qualities.
Before going further, I must state clearly that Japanese Dating is dedicated exclusively to sincere Japanese. The content is regularly monitored and anything deemed offensive will be removed and the contributing member suspended or even permanently banned. Nevertheless, you can start your visit by signing up for a free ten-day trial. The creation of a profile doesn’t take very long, but it will be a few hours before it is actually posted as each one is carefully reviewed first.
"...they give you ten days to try the service out completely..."
Until your profile is online, you can’t sign into the site. That also means that your trial period hasn’t started until your first log in. One thing I found surprising in the information you’re asked to give is that the categories for which church you belong to are rather general. Other sites are very specific about not only denominations, but also even the branches within them.
Having grown up in a small town where the Red Lutherans (their church was red brick) never spoke to the White Lutherans (their church was sandstone), it seems odd to treat such a distinction lightly, but you could always write more specifics in your bio. Moreover, it's a disappointment that localized searching options include only American and Canadian telephone area codes. They aren't that precise at narrowing down results, geographically speaking.
There is instant messaging available simply by clicking on the profile of someone else online at the same time as you. Every day you can find the people having a birthday right on the homepage and send them an ecard. I found while I was visiting that a good majority of the people online had pictures, though, so that’s worth a thousand words right there.
Some single Japanese sites seem less about Christ and more about just being safer and cleaner than regular dating sites. I get the distinct impression that from the profiles I read, most members seemed to be very concerned that they connect with true believers. I appreciate the fact that they give you ten days to try the service out completely and, once your trial is over, the full-membership is competitive compared to most web personals on the market these days.
