There have been quite a few answers from staff members lately, so I thought I’d take the opportunity to ask.
This content is machine-translated.
You’ve probably conducted a lot of interviews over the years, but have you ever had any outrageous experiences that made you think, “No way, not this woman”?
Like someone showing up in clothes that looked like pajamas or with completely messy hair...
I’m just asking out of curiosity (><)
This is Saito, the column writer ♪
This is a little off-topic since we’re talking about interviews, but I just remembered that in arrangements involving celebrities from the very top tier, there was a rule against using your phone while meeting them.
I understood it was meant to prevent the women from feeling suspicious, but in the end, the woman herself would take out her phone and say, “Let’s exchange contact information,” so it really defeated the purpose… That reminded me of a rule I’d completely forgotten about.
(Of course, this was at a different dating club.)
Reading everyone’s answers brought it back to mind. Haha.

Aizawa, Sub-Chief at Universe Club Tokyo, answering.
As for truly outrageous people…
There have been people who were grumpy, overly casual, and curt from start to finish;
someone who showed up late without notice and, when asked, “What happened today?” simply said, “I didn’t realize how late it had gotten,” without apologizing;
someone who came wearing a T-shirt with a huge anime character printed across it and wrinkled pink pants that looked like pajamas;
and someone who arrived late, then immediately spread out their makeup and spent quite a while putting it on after being shown to their seat.
I’ve met all kinds of people, but I don’t think any of them were truly outrageous!!

Universe Tokyo’s Mami here.
As for truly outrageous women…
The on-site staff—especially at the Shinjuku branch—might have more entertaining stories than I do.
- An older woman who’d fallen victim to a marriage scam and refused to leave, despite never getting an offer
- A fully tattooed delinquent-type woman
- An extremely skinny girl with anorexia
That’s about all that comes to mind at the moment…
I don’t really like badmouthing women, and when you think someone is truly dangerous, everyone else seems pretty tame.

I’m Meg, a female member.
Hey, I came across an amusing tweet from the female recruitment coordinator for Universe on Twitter, so I thought I’d share it.
Dated July 26:
“Please refrain from using your phone during the interview. Many applicants are rejected for that very reason.”
I couldn’t help replying to my phone, “Well, obviously!”
There are really people like that, huh? lol
Someone taught me a new way to read this “w”:
What a
Wonderful
World
Isn’t that lovely?
Oh, and even if I were the interviewer, I’d reject someone for that too!

I’m Paper Airplane, a male member.
Since beautiful women join in Kansai, I assume pretty much everyone passes.
Competition is fierce in Kanto, so even the women who don’t get accepted are probably quite attractive.
With pajamas on and their hair all messy… In Kansai, I feel even the club’s beauties might go out on a date looking like that in their private lives.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office here.
They say “Buddha-like Maezawa” doesn’t have the word “rejected” in his vocabulary.
That’s a lie, though…
As far as I remember, there weren’t really any outrageous people.

I’m Date Yume, a male member.
> “Oh, this woman isn’t for me.”
I think there are definitely women like that（笑）. The ones I know are similar to cabaret club hostesses, but I get the feeling there are also women who, under the catchy label of papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), don’t really understand what an escort club is about and are like cabaret hostesses turned up to eleven.
