Omikale's New Journey into Marriage Counseling
The leading Japanese matchmaking website, Omikale, boasts impressive statistics: over 950,000 members and the highest number of real events that can be attended this month. On August 1, 2025, Omikale will embark on a new venture by launching a marriage counseling service, aimed at addressing the evolving needs of its diverse user base.
Founded in Shibuya, Tokyo, and spearheaded by CEO Akira Minamikurosawa, Omikale has earned its reputation by providing real opportunities for singles to meet through engaging events. Over the past 13 years, it has been pivotal in facilitating encounters that lead to meaningful relationships. As many individuals express a desire for more personalized support in their journey toward marriage, Omikale is responding with the introduction of its marriage counseling service.
The Motivation Behind the Counseling Service
In light of the increasingly varied demands in the dating scene, Omikale is driven by its vision, "Creating New Encounters - Turning 0 into ZERO." Customers have voiced their yearnings for deeper personal support, increased confidence prior to events, and more efficient ways to pursue their marital aspirations.
By partnering with IBJ Corporation, a prominent player in Japan’s marriage counseling industry, and TMS, which expands on the extensive network of counseling services, Omikale aims to provide a hybrid model of engagement that marries individual counseling with the dynamics of real-life events. This innovative approach is designed to maximize the chances of finding a life partner, using Omikale's vast member base.
