I started a matching app with an annual income of 2 million yen.

–Mr. Nakagawa started using a matchmaking app at the age of 48, and he had some great encounters.
mosquito?

Manabu Nakagawa (hereinafter the same)So far I have matched with 23 people and met 5 people. I would appreciate it if you read the manga to find out whether you had a good encounter or not.

――I apologize for the inconvenience, but what kind of woman would you say you would like to meet and talk to based on Mr. Nakagawa’s specifications?

This is just my personal experience, but I don’t think there are many women who are emotionally anxious and think, “I have to get married no matter what!”

I interact with people who are roughly the same age (mid-40s to 50s), and their profiles and self-introductions say, “Marriage hunting is about spending the second half of your life with each other.” I feel like he’s taking it a little too lightly, saying, “I’m looking for friends and tea-drinking friends to follow each other with.” (Maybe “tea-drinking friends” is too light?)

I think that’s why they are willing to meet and talk with people like me.

–When the first episode of the manga was distributed, there was a scathing opinion on Yahoo! Comments saying, “With these specs, it’s difficult to get to the starting line.If a young woman catches on, you should suspect a scammer.” did.

It’s true that there were a number of people who appeared to be scammers during the matching process.

10 of the 23 matches were suspicious. When I first started using the app, I didn’t know who was right and who was left, so if someone liked me, I would be matched with Hoi Hoi regardless of who it was.

Young, beautiful women who look like models are most likely scams.

I’ve lectured scammers (probably foreign men in international romance scams) on Messages.

“Do a decent job. You’re wasting your life doing something stupid like this.” An unpopular old man lectures a scammer… There are zero cool characters.

――Also, “I’m sure it’s a project intended to create material for a manga…I wonder if they’re going to use the wedding expenses as expenses, after all. Even in Bimbo, artists can be popular. Ceramists, painters, musicians, etc. “Even if you have a low income, there will be women who come to you if you are a professional.Is that the advantage and salvation?”

I do it completely out of my own pocket. I earn 2 million yen a year and am doing it on my own. I feel like I’m going to die (lol) Editorial department, could you please cover the costs for interviews in the future?

Also, I would like them to do a “wife recruitment project”… There is an image that a band member who is a big fan is extremely popular, but a manga artist who is a big fan is not popular at all. No, I’m not popular as a manga artist.

— Don’t you get tired if you take your marriage search so seriously?

I’m tired. And I often get frustrated. There are times when I think, “Is it really impossible to get married?” However, I feel that my life will be richer if I have a partner, so I continue to work without giving up.
