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.

This may be a silly question, but why do the number of likes and answers differ for the same question between the question list and the answer list?
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here.
I wonder why that is...
Maybe the program just wasn’t designed very well.
They should have built it properly.
Still, don’t worry about the little things.
As long as it works, I guess that’s good enough.

Hello. I recently registered as a female member in Tokyo. I’m sad that I still haven’t been featured in the “New Women” section or on Instagram…
💬 Answer from 木田(社長):
Thank you for your question.
I’m Kida, the representative, and I’ll answer it.
First of all, thank you for registering with us. I understand that you weren’t featured among the new women or on Instagram.
We sincerely apologize.
Just to confirm, are you referring to the “new women” section and Instagram outside of the members-only site?

When I joined three years ago, I was told that “about 40% of registered women never receive even a single offer.” Has that percentage increased recently—maybe to 60% or 70%? Is there an accurate figure available? (I’m a male member.)
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here—I’ll answer this one too.
The figure of 40% from three years ago probably wasn’t exact to begin with; I think it was more of a staff estimate.
Going by that general impression, things seem about the same now. Compared with before, it doesn’t seem to have increased or decreased significantly.
That said, around three years ago, the standard explanation for Tokyo was that half of the women didn’t receive any offers.
Was it 40%…?
Did we really say 40%?
Hmm…

I’m a newly joined male member. I was a little shocked reading what the male members had to say. https://universe-club.jp/mensvoice/ Maybe it’s a case of older guys throwing their money around, but I couldn’t help thinking, “Who do they think they are?

Hello. If I want to leave the club after registering, will the club contact the members who have made offers at that point to let them know I’m declining? (Excluding offers for the same day)
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here.
As soon as we receive a request to leave the club, if you currently have an offer pending, the club will contact the male member.
More commonly, women tell us they would like to leave after completing the date they currently have an offer for. Even in that case, just to be safe, we inform the man and confirm whether he still wishes to go ahead with the date.

I’m 18 and considering signing up. Since I’m 18, I’m not legally allowed to drink alcohol. If I can actually drink, is it okay to answer “I can drink” during the interview without lying?
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here.
Universe Club complies with the law. For that reason, we don’t ask members who are underage whether they can drink alcohol.
Since minors aren’t allowed to drink, there’s no point in asking. Occasionally, a staff member may accidentally ask anyway. If that happens, simply let them know that you’re underage, and they’ll realize their mistake.
If the conversation with the staff member is going well and you’d rather answer, that’s fine. However, for underage memb…

I’m thinking about applying for an interview. What kind of people tend to fail the screening process? From the photos I’ve seen, many of the women appear to have slim figures. Is appearance really the main factor?
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here.
As you said, looks are given a lot of weight. Someone attractive generally won’t be rejected even if their attitude is somewhat poor. In that case, they might simply be placed in a class one level lower.
Even if their attitude is extremely bad, if they’re exceptionally attractive, they’d probably still be registered, though their profile might include a note saying they have a poor attitude.
If an attractive person were to be rejected, it would probably only …

Could you explain the Kanto joint campaign? It says, “The complimentary allotment can be used to make offers to all women, regardless of class.” If a man is a Gold member, does that mean he can make free offers to women in the Black and Platinum classes while still being a Gold member? This is a question from a male member.
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here with an answer.
That’s right. Even Gold men can make their fifth offer to a Black woman for free while remaining Gold members, as long as they meet the requirements of this campaign.
(And of course, they can also make offers to Platinum women.)
So for men who aren’t Black members, this is likely to be a particularly advantageous campaign.
That said, Black women are usually spoiled by Black men, so you may need to be fairly generous when taking one out on a dat…

About the interview: Do the staff usually decide roughly which class you belong to as soon as they meet you? After that, are things like your personality, dating style, and bust size taken into account? Are women in the Black class really so beautiful that the staff decide “Black!!” the moment they meet them?
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here with some answers.
> Regarding the interview, do the staff usually decide a woman’s general class more or less as soon as they meet her?
As you said, I think for most women, their general class is largely decided based on their first impression.
After that, as the interview progresses, the impression gradually settles—whether she’s just as she seemed at first, turns out to be even better, or not quite as good.

Women receive event announcements after registering through the LINE account dedicated to events. Men receive them via our broadcast messages unless they ask not to receive them.

A woman I was previously set up with no longer appears on the site. Has she left? When I asked her on LINE, she said she’s still registered. Why is she no longer visible? It’s very inconvenient that I can’t review her profile or comments from the club. If there’s a rule to hide women after they’ve already been set up with someone, I’d appreciate it if this could be improved.

💬 Answer from Responder:
Mochizuki here, answering as well.
I’m sorry. Due to system limitations, I’ve only extracted data for women who registered in 2018.
I also calculated the number of offers received by the women with the most offers, broken down by branch and class.
For example, the Tokyo Gold member joined a little over a year ago, yet has received 52 offers during that time. That works out to about four offers a month—or being approached roughly once a week…

> Are there more Black-tier male members now?
In terms of numbers, I think there are more Black-tier men, simply because the overall membership has grown.
As for the proportion of Black-tier men, I don’t think we’ve compiled statistics on that, so I’m not sure how it’s changed. My impression is that it probably hasn’t changed significantly, but I can’t say for certain.

That can happen when you receive a “You seem wonderful” message from a woman who’s registered but currently hidden from view.
Why was she hidden?
There can be various reasons. For example, if we can’t get in touch with her or she hasn’t replied to something we sent, we may hide her profile temporarily, just to be safe.
In that case, we’ll make her profile visible again as soon as she replies.
The same applies when she tells us, “Work has gotten really busy,…

If the staff member who first interviewed a woman becomes her assigned contact, but she later has a new photoshoot handled by a different staff member, does the second staff member become her assigned contact? Or are both staff members assigned to her? Or is it only the first staff member?

Actually, we don’t have a dedicated staff system, so no particular staff member is assigned to handle each person.
However, when a man contacts us, the staff member who interviewed him in person will know the details, so we may ask that staff member.

I’m a female member. I received around 10 offers after joining, but they suddenly stopped. I went in for a new photo shoot, but nothing changed… I also tried attending events, but that didn’t help either… I saw somewhere that April is a busy season, so it’s discouraging not to receive any offers during a time like this. Lately, I’ve been thinking about moving to another club, but is there really nothing else I can do?
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):
Maezawa here.
The busy season is around July, so I don’t think you need to feel discouraged just yet.
You’ll usually receive the most offers when you first register, and the number tends to decline afterward.
So at this point, it may be best to patiently wait for new offers.
That said, receiving 10 offers is actually quite impressive. Weren’t any of the men you met interested in a long-term arrangement?
I don’t think the number of offers will suddenly increase, so it mig…

What has caused the number of women on the blacklist to decrease so much? And what measures are being taken to address this?
💬 Answer from 前澤(スタッフ):

It may seem like having fewer Black-tier women means there are fewer great women, but the two aren’t actually the same.
The staff decide who is placed in the Black tier.
That means it would be easy to increase the number of Black-tier women. For example, they could simply move everyone currently in Platinum who seems more suited to Black into the Black tier.
So from a man’s perspective, isn’t it actually a good thing if the number of Black-tier women has dec…
