20% Japanese Men Want To Date Game Characters

Category: Japan Game: Default Posted on Sep 04, 2009 2:31 am

Another entry from SankakuComplex talking about dating/loving/marrying with 2D characters


When I finished FSN, I did want to date Saber too

 

The latest finding about Japan’s increasingly unmanly men is that some 40% think enjoying in-game love is worthwhile, whilst 20% admit to actually wanting a relationship with characters in a game. The survey, covering 500 Japanese men in their twenties, covered a variety of questions relating to lifestyle.
 

When asked "Do you think of yourself as a 'herbivorous' man?", referring to a passive man who will not pursue women, a staggering 63.8% replied "yes." Then, when asked "Do you think enjoying a romance with a game character is on?", 42.2% responded that they did indeed think it was "ari." A fifth of the men went so far as to admit that on at least one occasion they had hankered after romance with a game character. Via Sankakucomplex and J-Cast

It's hard to find the "perfect girl" in real life, heck no one is perfect. I'm willing to bet all my pokemon cards that your current gf/bf is not 100% what you would want them to be. So i guess that's why those guys resort to anime girls as their "ideal girl." On at different note, modern Japanese girls scare the crap out of me, then again I think I watch too many japanese physco movies. =[

But I'd kill for a real life girlfriend :D
