What an event tonight in Ginza! A perfect balance, with a good number of guests (not too many, not too few), and most of the men and women leaving with a date.
Well, March is upon us already... doesn't time fly!

Half of the men left as a couple tonight in Ginza. We seem to be bang on half of the men pretty regularly these days.
Unfortunately this means our ratio is going down slightly, as we normally average over half of the men. Perhaps this can be blamed on a natural process of selection!
Come along to an event soon.

Quite a big party last night with a very good M:F balance. Most of the guests left as a couple too, which is pretty unusual for an event of this size. It's not so often that the number of couples will go into double figures, and it's normally a bigger event than this.
Perhaps with Christmas coming up in 6 weeks, some people were looking extra hard for someone to spend it with. As you maybe know, Christmas is a time for love in Japan, and is more of a season for couples than for families. Family time is New Year for Japanese people. So anyway, perhaps that was it, or perhaps it was just random. Our events do often seem to be pretty random in terms of... well, pretty much everything really. This was definitely one of the good ones though!

As usual, most of the men at tonight's Ginza event left with a date.
The numbers of guests at our events has been a little bit random of late, some weeks will only have around 25 in total, others will have over 40. A difference like that may not seem like much, but it makes a big difference in terms of the amount of time we can give guests to speak to each other.
We usually get men according to how many women are signed up, so that's why the numbers can be random. We don't aggressively sell these parties to women, so it's simply how many choose to sign themselves up.

Most of the guests at tonight's Ginza event left with a date. It was a good atmosphere throughout and there were lots of nice looking ladies. Lots of new faces (both men and women) tonight as well.
Come along sometime if you can. The events are always fun, even if you don't make a match.

Most of the men left with a date following tonight's Ginza event.
A good atmosphere at the event, and a successful night all round. It was a big event without being too hectic. When there are more than 20 women, things tend to get quite chaotic, as there is so little time to talk to each women. The flip side though is obviously that you get to meet more women.
Simon is away for next week's event, but will be back for the first event of June on the 7th.

A pretty massive event in Ginza with 20 men and 28 women. Having this many women to talk to necessitated only a 1 minute conversation with each woman during the first round. Only a modicum of chaos ensued, and most of the guys did a good job of moving, despite it being so hectic.
We would have hoped for a few more couples, but bearing in mind we didn't do impression cards (due to the large number of guests), 9 out of a possible 20 wasn't at all bad, as we always have less couples when we don't do the impression cards.

A good event tonight in Ginza. A little small, but with a great balance, good atmosphere, and half of the men leaving with a date.
We've been turning away a lot of guys trying to sign up late, so please reserve yourselves a spot as early as you can to avoid disappointment.

A good event again in Ginza tonight. We had a decent balance, an excellent atmosphere and 10 out of a possible 15 couples.
What a great way to bring in Christmas. For whatever reason Christmas is a season of romance here in Japan. Hope you have a good one everybody, however you spend it.

A great evening tonight, with absolutely loads of couples. It's not often we have an 80% couple rate with such a big party.
It was certainly a busy evening, with a fun but somewhat hectic atmosphere, due to less time to talk with each person. There was a lot of moving, and it was certainly a little crazy. We finished on time though just about, although then ended up making so many couples that it took about 10 minutes to read them all out.
It was nice to see so many people leaving with a date, although I again felt sorry for those 4 guys who didn't make a match.
