Who is "handsome" to you?
A person that knows how to make himself look attractive
If he sees me for who I truly am, that is love.
Hey guys and girls on Ask Japanese it's your flashy fashion reporter CathyCat
YOU might be some Japanese girl"s ideal boy because
today we are gonna go and ask them about their type
what their ideal boy should be or look like
Let's find out what they generally like and let's go and ask Japanese girls.
Let's goooo! Today we are asking everyone...
Who is your ideal type?
Like your ideal boy
Someone humorous. - How?
Someone who makes funny jokes or just makes dirty jokes
He is good at playing stupid (its a Japanese comedy style)
He says something silly and you act as straight man of the joke?
Or the other way round yes
Are you from Osaka (where that Comedy Style is from)? - My dad is
So that influenced you - Think so
So first he should get your type of humor
Give me 3 in total
He has to be handsome
Who looks handsome to you?
A boy who knows how to make himself look attractive
A boy who knows what clothes to wear that make him look good
A boy who knows what suits him?
Doesn't that go towards narcissism?
Let's hope he is not too much of that
Looking at boys, can you tell that they know what suits them?
For example a boy who does have a good face but compensates for it in style
Hair gel? - Having an interesting hair style
Summarizing; He should try his best at looking good
Working at his looks and understanding comedy and number 3?
He has to be kind
You said kind but you looked like you wanted to say something else
He's gotta have MONEY
He needs money
If he is poor its a no go?
It is always better to have money in life. Who wants a man who does not go to work?
What work is cool?
A man who is confident in his work - Who does what he loves for work
Someone who does work he loves and can feed himself with that work
But that is hard right
A poor musician or a rich salary man, who would you pic?
That is hard
But men who do what they love for work are great. They do not have to have that much money
I would pick the musician
If that is the choice
He would have his own style
If he asks for money though or doesn't really try that hard...
that would be a no. But if he follows his passion as musician its ok
If he does it half-heartedly? - Get you S*it together boy
Passion is important - Energy
He should have muscles. - You like muscles? - A lot
1 muscles 2 muscles 3 heart Nothing better than a man with muscles
Thats interesting last week we interviewed a lot of girls who said they do not like muscular men. Why?
Super muscular is great right? - Totally great
What does your ideal boy have to be like?
Long Hair - You like men with long hair? - Yes
Why? - I like that careless look
Nice but you do not see that much in Japan - True
Recently there are some more. - What will you tell your friend if you see a guy with long hair?
"Look at that hottie!" - She says that!
Did she say it today? - She did
What if a boy with long hair tries to chat you up? - What? Oh I might go out with him there and then
So criteria number one and two? - Someone honest
You are so cute
No white lies - Yes! - You ask 'Do I look fat in this dress?' and he says "YES"
That is better than him keeping it all in and brooding. If he tells me my flaws, I can try work on them too.
No white lies?
Only in special occasions, generally I want him to be super honest
What lie would you not like?
- "Does she look cuter than I am?" and he says "she is." - ...........
That would hurt me... - You are making such a sad face I am so sorry for asking!
You looked SO SAD I am SO SORRY!!!
- You are right my friend is so pure - She is so pure!!!
So cute - I am so sorry!
Girl you are so pure it's beautiful. Sorry for this question
In the end, you always want to be his number one - That is it!\
Who is your ideal boy?
My ideal?
I like Visual Kei boys
Nice Visual Kei! That would work with your Harajuku style!
Would it?
What type of Visual Kei hair?
Hair to here like in the old days and then long fringe like to here
Number two what do you need?
Someone who loves me - And writes you messages non stop?
Too much is not good but someone who knows how to show me he loves me
What do you want him to do? Buy you juice or something?
I want money... Have him buy me presents and clothes with it
Shopping together - Right
When you you feel loved?
When he looks after me
If he only focusses on me, I feel loved
I do not feel myself when I do not wear my type of fashion.
If he dislikes my fashion, that means he also dislikes me.
I get you girl! I get you!
He has to like my style
I understand that so much. If I hear people comment 'I prefer you in normal clothes" it only makes me sad.
Yes that hurts! I get you! - I hate it when people do that!
But people that like my style are best! So your ideal...
what do you want to do on dates?
I do not need special things. Just the little things like a walk together at night.
Walking in jerseys at night, going to the convenience store and buying some sweets
Little daily things - Everyday life - Right
Feeling the joy in everyday life
What does your ideal boy has to have? - Be kind
When do you know he is kind?
When he decides what to do based on thinking of me
Doing things without having been told them - Yes
When can you tell he did something for you?
Carrying my luggage without having to ask beforehand.
Or walking on the side of the road.
A gentleman
Having them do it without making a big fuss about it
Thats it
First is kindness second is? - Honesty
Really engaging with his partner
Looking at me when we communicate
Listening and giving advice
That is your definition of Honesty?
Kind, honest and?
Cleanliness
What should boys do?
Looking after his looks. Do his hair.
Thinking about what clothes to wear and such
Beard yes or no
Only if it is trimmed properly
If it is a well styled beard it is ok? - Yes
Who is your ideal? - Someone who is kind
What is 'kindness' to you?
Little things. Noticing small details
Like what? - Noticing when I am a little bit down without me having to say so. That is kindness.
Being able to read your mind. And you
Someone who has humor
Someone who has the same comedy interest as I do
And apart from that? - Someone who praises me
What praises?
When I worked hard, and am tired he said ' Well done for the hard work ' I like that
What would make your heart flutter if he did that?
If he touches me a little bit
What type of touch?
From my shoulders upwards, not below
If he puts an arm around me that is a no, but patting my shoulders or head is good
Patting your head - That is good
Someone who is generally really funny, but can suddenly get really serious. I like that.
Heart flutters
Seeing the veins on a boy's body after doing sports. I love that.
You know what you like girl.
You like what you like. It was refreshing to have them talk about long hair
I haven't heard that and seen that in Japan for a while.
Be yourself, be original but also...
be careful about things that Japanese girls want or do not want
we have done a complete video about that including BO and cleansing and such
Check this video out if you are curious about dating Japanese girls and what they don't want
