- How do you go about it?

- Do you actually have to only be half, full Japanese or white tho?

- How do you get noticed?

- Is it worth it?

- Anyone got experience?

If kota, that German girl with the huge nose and yukapon can model in Japan I'm not sure why you can't.

No. 160980

>How do you go about it?
Don't be fat. Don't be smelly. Be white, preferably with dishwater blonde hair. Don't have any delusions of making decent money or working less than 5-6 days a week.

>Do you actually have to only be half, full Japanese or white tho?

If you want it to be easy (or honestly possible if you're a nobody), yes. But being hafu will probably only work if you speak jp well.


>How do you get noticed?

You won't. Go to an agency and try to get signed. Anyone trying to scout you from the street is probably shady as fuck, nanpa, etc.

>Is it worth it?

I don't know. Do you crave the empty "compliments" of Japanese people? Do you have aggressively low self esteem? Why do you want to catalog model in jp when you could probably do it in your own country? (Unless you're below average and that's why you think it'll be easier there)

At the end of the day you'll still be a sad weaboo so if you have the money just go for it I guess.

Why so much hatred?
Some people want to model in Japan because it's cute as fuck, whereas in the states you need big tits big ass and it emphasizes on sexiness lol and tons of western models are basic as fuck (cara for exemple)

No. 160982

>>160981

People think you need to either be hafu/white or cute enough though. But I'd actually like to see the day where idk an indian person or Brazilian go over and model instead of the usual Dakota Rose/Taylor R types that we see again and again.


I give it another 10 years until we see a change like that.

Thanks for summoning me. Anyway, there is a difference between commercial and high fashion modelling. I believe you are thinking of commercial for both countries. Sure, Japan favors cute midgets, and the western world favors sexy women. Cara is not basic and she is most definitely more attractive, well-off, and interesting than you.

Maybe Victoria Secrets models need big boobs but that is definitely not the norm for modeling. You might want to get that straight before you try modeling as a career. Also what's wrong with Cara?

Nah Cara has definitely got it.
When she's on the catwalk it's like she turns into a completely different person and I think that's part of what makes her so marketable.

Despite the fact that she's coming out and said that she really dislikes the modelling industry she still behaved extremely professionally with it.
That being said she's always maintained that modelling was never her goal in the first place, that it was a stepping stone into her real passion; acting.

I.. I'm a big Cara fan .__.

No. 161002

It's for stupid weeaboo cunts who think modeling is a glamours lifestyle and not filled with worker rights violations. You'll do lots of work, but wont make a cent.

No. 161003

There's a documentary about modeling in Japan on netflix called "Girl Model". I wish more of these PULL weaboos would watch it. /cgl/ and lolcow don't really know anything about modeling or Japan aside from weeb delusions, don't listen to them.
There have been girls who have intentionally gained weight so they could be sent home by their agency. I wouldn't be surprised if kooter has been acting up and gaining weight in hopes that her agency will drop her.

No. 161004

>>160981
Danm, you're stupid as fuck. The modelling scene is generally the same everywhere you go, they want tall and they want skinny. Only stupid weaboos think the Japanese would instantly find them ~omg kawaii uwu~. There are also specialty models, like the ones you described. If you're already in America, Japan, London, ect, and you can't make it as a model there, then you wont have much of a better chance in Japan. For context, modeling agencies recruit girls in poor slavic countries and ship them to the countries I mentioned because there is a bigger demand for them there. There are already a great deal of slavic models in Japan, some as young as 14. My point is, there is no reason why you can't model in the US unless you aren't model material. I don't know why you think Japan would somehow be different. Japanese tell people what they want to hear, so don't hold their word in high esteem. Japan isn't all kawaii anime, 90% of it is boring as fuck and the people will probably be too much normalfag for you to handle.

Honestly being a prostitute in Japan is what would get you all The Big Bux as a foreigner. You'd get at least $500 a pop and it's a lot safer than in the U.S. or elsewhere. Give a few handjobs a month and you'd have enough yen to do whatever you want. The more young looking and attractive you are the better.

You know, I'm surprised Casper Keith AKA Chris Dakota (Aqualake) never went to Japan to model.

I know he's a cunt and has ED thus being in gay denial. But I'm honestly surprised. He's from a rich ass family and I would have thought he'd gone in for modelling there since he loves the damn place so much cos video games and tamagotchis…
