So Japanese dudes dating digital anime girls has been a big thing in the western media lately because “OMG weird Japan!
!,” but if there’s one thing the news stories get right it’s that there are a whole lot of “digital girlfriend” apps available for a very specific type of person.
One such app hopes to encourage users to slim down by dieting with their digital girlfriend – the idea being that the more you diet, the more she diets, and the slimmer and more attractive she gets.
Quick aside here: Why does it seem like all these Japanese dating apps have you meeting these girls in eerily empty high school classrooms?
Does no one care about getting to their next class on time?
