Have you tried your J-Nanpa routine in any other country?
Yeah, the fundamental behaviors are the same. Taking right action, making the girl chase, finding about her own unique characteristics, communicating honestly as a man to a woman, leading, assured body language, strong eye contact, deep voice tone, relaxation, being in the moment, etc etc. These are all the same across any culture. Some things are different - cultural nuances and differences of procedure: for example, in the West you usually make out with the girl and get her excited before you pull her home. In Japan you don't. These things might take a little getting used to, but I certainly have applied my game to non-Japanese people, and in other countries. Most notably, I've been to the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Korea. I had success in almost all of these, and I'd consider them significantly easier than Japan because of the lower socio-economic power (foreigners have automatic high status). I've also been with several Western girls in Japan, which is also much easier after getting good at all of this stuff. Anyway, the point is that the foundations of pickup are ubiquitous and applicable anywhere. The superfluous aspects (which are still important) take some getting used to. For example, I'm not in touch with the latest songs and slang from the US.
Regarding the above post's sort of "you look stupid approaching so go somewhere easier and get the low-hanging fruit" mentality, I've never believed in this. Or, maybe at the beginning when I was in massive sexual scarcity and was paranoid about how other people saw me. But you really do have to break through this and make your own way in the world. You can't just live in fear of how others see you. If a guy looks stupid ten times, and the eleventh finds his dream girl, that's totally worth it to me. Better than "playing it cool" and never meeting anyone because you're too concerned with how you look. I would deliberately do things to make myself look strange or stupid on purpose, like putting some chocolate on my face then talking to girls. The idea being, get comfortable with being made fun of. Lose the ego and the fear.
I think you should go for your absolute ideal girls
always. If you go for them enough, you'll find one that likes you and it will be rewarding. If you stand around trying to find places where the competition is lower and the girls are lower quality, you're going to be left "settling" for a girl who isn't up to your standards. Thats the worst place to be and is disrespectful to the girl and your own self-esteem. I'd much rather fall from the tree reaching for the nicest apple in the highest place and have everyone see me fall and laugh at me than scrounge around safely at the bottom of the tree picking up the semi-rotten apples that have fallen to the ground.
