New Initiative from Marriage Consultation NPO

The Tokyo-based Marriage Consultation NPO, recognized as a special nonprofit organization, is excited to announce the launch of its first-ever discussion series on the X platform. Scheduled for October 24, 2025, at 19:00, this series aims to support those feeling stuck in their dating journeys.

Event Details

Hosted by the NPO's Director, Mr. Kageyama, this event will feature F-san, a guest who has bravely faced numerous setbacks in the dating world. The theme for this inaugural session is "Transformation Strategies for Those Stuck in Dating". F-san will share personal experiences and practical transformation methods that proved effective in his own dating journey.

What is X Space?

X Space, a feature of X (formerly known as Twitter), allows users to engage in real-time audio conversations. Anyone with an X account can listen anonymously and even participate by submitting questions or joining discussions. The NPO aims to lower participation barriers with this accessible platform, moving away from the requirement for pre-registrations.

Background of the Initiative

This initiative was inspired by a volunteer's desire to foster direct communication with participants seeking marriage consultation. After considering various platforms, it was determined that X Space, with its neutral gender presence and ease of access, would be the ideal medium. Following a successful test, the NPO decided to move forward with hosting these discussions regularly.

F-san has an inspiring story, having lost 26 kilograms over eight months. His journey through dating began with a matching application before he registered with a marriage consultation office for three years. After navigating through a breakup post-engagement, he has now successfully married. In this initial session, Mr. Kageyama will also discuss personal habits that have affected his dating experiences, creating a relatable space equipped for open discussion.

First Event Overview

Theme: Transformation Strategies for Those Stuck in Dating
Date and Time: October 24, 2025, at 19:00
Participation: Attendees can join via the Marriage Consultation NPO's official X account without prior registration.

Direct access to the Space is encouraged for greater involvement.

Future Plans

Based on feedback from this event, the NPO intends to host a series of regular discussions in the future. They are also exploring the revival of their “Dating Live” events, which allow potential candidates to be introduced anonymously, resembling a live commerce format.

Call for Speakers

The NPO welcomes individuals interested in sharing their dating or marital experiences to join discussions with Mr. Kageyama and F-san. Experiences from both current dating participants and those already married will be valuable. Please note that participation requires the official X app.
