Female members can send reverse offers to male respondents they like by emailing the administrator to express their interest. Male members can learn which female members are interested in them by answering questions and sharing their opinions.

Incidents involving papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) have been reported repeatedly lately. Do both female and male members tend to leave the club or take other action each time? Women in particular have ended up being the victims, and I imagine meeting a stranger can be very intimidating. Is the club considering any measures to address this?

With the reverse-offer system, you can’t go on a date if you’re in a different class, right? It seems like the higher the class, the more disadvantageous it becomes—especially for women with darker complexions in regional areas. That’s a little disappointing.
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:
Maezawa from overseas here with an answer.
Don’t be so disappointed.
If she hasn’t received an offer in a while, the staff can use their secret weapon: moving her to a different class.
Well, I can’t say that for certain, but that’s what I would do. Haha.
That way, everyone’s happy.
So I don’t think the woman would necessarily be at a disadvantage.
That said, I’m only talking about women who haven’t received an offer in a while—just to be clear.

For example, even if a man has a Standard membership, there’s still a chance he could receive a reverse offer from a woman in the Black class, right? In that case, how would the offer fee work?
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:
Maezawa answering from abroad.
Rather than an “inverse offer,” it’s set up so that women can press a “You’re wonderful” button for men.
So a Black-class woman can send “You’re wonderful” to a Standard-class man.
The system is still the same in that people in different classes can’t go on dates. So if he wants to date her, he would need to upgrade his class for her.
Women can see the man’s class, so if she still sends him a “You’re wonderful,” wouldn’t that be the ultimate…

I’ve been registered for about a month now, but I still haven’t received a single offer. (I’m wondering if it might be because of my natural appearance…) Would it be possible to retake my video and photos, even though it’s only been a short time? Who should I contact about that? If I send this kind of inquiry via LINE, will I receive a reply?
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:
Maezawa answers:
I’m sorry to hear that you haven’t been receiving any offers.
Normally, when a woman isn’t getting offers, we try changing her class. Could you contact the branch where you registered via LINE and ask something like, “I haven’t been receiving any offers. What should I do?”
If there’s room to lower your class, they may make that change.
As for a reshoot, if the branch is busy, they’ll probably ask you to wait around six months.
Even then, depending on the…

You may have been hidden from our list because we couldn’t contact you either.

I’m a male member in my early 40s with three children. Since condoms can fail as a form of contraception, I previously asked whether it would be a good idea to suggest that women use the pill, and received some fairly harsh responses. Another option would be to “get a vasectomy.” If any members or staff have had the procedure or are considering it, I’d appreciate any advice or personal experiences.

Thank you as always. I’m a male member. I have a question about the reverse-offer system. I’m seriously considering making my profile public, but I’m already seeing a female member, and I don’t think she would feel good if she happened to see my profile. That’s why I’m hesitant to make it public. Is there any way to hide my profile specifically from the person I’m seeing?

It doesn’t seem to be available at the moment, but the person developing the program gave a positive response when I suggested they consider adding it.

I always enjoy reading this site. Regarding the profile section of the reverse-offer feature, would it be possible to include the allowance and transportation costs? I’m also always hoping to avoid mismatches with women, so I think it would be helpful to state in advance the allowance and transportation expenses I have in mind.
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:
Maezawa answers:
Even under the current male profile system, we ask that you refrain from stating the allowance amount.
Therefore, even if reverse offers are introduced, I don’t expect the policy to change.
Universe Club is a dating club, so its primary purpose is to arrange dates.
Accordingly, any discussion of the allowance should take place after the dinner date, once the relationship has moved into a more personal arrangement.
I understand how you feel, but I hope yo…

I’m a female member! How can I sign up for the event line so I can participate in events? I’m not very photogenic, so I’d rather meet and talk in person. I’d also love to observe and learn from the other female members!

The fact that you know about the event line suggests you’ve done a fair amount of research.
Next, you could contact the branch where you’re registered and say something like, “I’d like to attend an event. What should I do?”
The branch staff will then contact the event staff, who will get in touch with you.
That’s generally how it works in Tokyo, where there are many events.
However, regional branches may not be able to hold many events at this stage, so …

Are most Black male members matched with Black female members? For example, approximately how many offers were made to Black male members last year, and what percentage went to women in each class? I’m asking because I’d like to understand the trends among Black male members.
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:

I’m sure one of the staff members who enjoys crunching those numbers will provide the exact breakdown, but my general impression is that Black-level men don’t exclusively make offers to Black-level women. They seem to offer Platinum women more often.
You might wonder, “Then why not just be Platinum?” But while they do make more offers to Platinum women, they also make offers to Black-level women, so I think there’s still a reason for the Black class.

💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:

Since this is a question related to reverse offers, I’ll assume you’re asking what percentage of people have made their profile visible when sending a reverse offer.
There are 167 men whose profiles are visible to all women, so I’d say it’s approximately 5.5%.
