27M Japanese American here! Looking for some karaoke buddies, mostly on weekends! I’m usually around Nishinari, but I always feel a little awkward singing Western songs at the local bars. Would love to meet some people who know a good amount of Western music and don’t mind my terrible singing!

My favorite genres

- classic rock 60s thru 90s

- 80s and 2000s pop

- hip hop (memphis rap and chicago drill)

I’m a happy solo traveler but I feel that splurging on Teppanyaki is worth sharing with good company. Male, late 30s and relatively sane! Let me know if you’re interested in buddying up or getting a group together. All welcome!

Anyone wanna join my friend and for Yodogawa Fireworks Festival tomorrow Saturday 10/17? We’ll be meeting at Osaka Metro Midosuji Line Nishinakajima Minamigata Station at 3 PM then we’ll head on out to the Yodogawa Park area to secure our spots and the fireworks will start from 7PM. There’s going to be a lot of food and drink stalls but feel free to BYOB! If you want to attend please let me know!

Hi! I’m a member of Kansai Dungeons & Dragons and we’re hosting a casual meet up for people at the end of the month. Indoor weather is coming up so rather than go full solo goblin mode, we’re having a night to help you find your own group of goblins to roll some dice with

⏳ WHEN: Friday 30th October 7pm

🧭 WHERE: Hearth Boardgame and Bar Namba

🧙 From how to get started to dice-roll techniques to how to best harvest DM tears, join our casual get together and talk all things Dungeons and Dragons!

📜 If interested, we’re also doing a brainstorming session of where we can take Kansai D&D from next year. Come with any ideas about anything you have! This can be about events or even something like how we reach out to people on the server!

👥 Open event! Invite whom you like! (Just please let us know who is coming so we have an idea of numbers. The Hearth is super nice to us so we don’t want to fail a charisma check with them)

the smell of grilled sausages from the street vendors, sounds of excitement and thrill from kids sitting on their parents’ shoulder, anxiously waiting for the next masterpiece painted on the dark summer sky. Held on the first Saturday of August every year, the annual Yodogawa Fireworks Festival is ranked among the top 10 most popular firework in the Kansai region, and this is indeed one of the most awaited events in Osaka.

I’ll start working from wework, either Namba SkyO or the one close to Hommachi.

Does anyone here work from there and wants to meetup?
I’m 36M from Southern Europe. I’m a foodie, into specialty coffee, enjoy soccer and board games.
Looking forward

Soy japonesa, tengo unos 30 años y vivo en la ciudad de Osaka.

Estudio español desde hace varios años y tengo clases una vez por semana. Pero quiero tener más oportunidades para hablar español en mi vida diaria.

Me gustaría conocer a japonesas que estudian español y a mujeres de países hispanohablantes que estudian japonés. Podemos practicar los dos idiomas y aprender unas de otras.

Quiero crear un espacio donde todas podamos sentirnos cómodas. Por eso, me gustaría organizar una pequeña reunión solo para mujeres, con unas 4-6 personas, en una cafetería de la ciudad de Osaka.

¿Os gustaría quedar para charlar?

Si os interesa, ¡dejad un comentario! También hablo inglés.

大阪市在住の30代女性です。

スペイン語を数年勉強しており、週1回レッスンも受けていますが、日常的にもっとスペイン語を話す機会がほしいと思っています。

スペイン語を勉強している日本人と、日本語を勉強しているスペイン語圏の方が言語交換を通じて、お互いに教え合いながら楽しく交流できたらと考えています。

安心して過ごせる空間を作りたいので、まずは女性限定で、4〜6人程度の少人数で大阪市内のカフェに集まっておしゃべりしませんか？

興味のある方は、ぜひコメントください！ 英語も話せます。

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm looking for someone to go with me to Kansai Comic in Kyoto on October 18. I'm into anime, manga, and otaku culture, and I thought it would be more fun to attend with someone rather than go alone.

If you're planning to go too and would like some company, feel free to send me a DM! We can explore the event together, check out the booths, and grab some food afterward.

Anyone is welcome! 😊

Hello! I'm thinking about running another Vaesen one-shot, possibly for the November edition of the JIGG's Osaka Game Day.

For those who don't know, Vaesen is a horror mystery set in the 19th-century Scandinavia, themed around Nordic folklore. It was designed by the Free League and runs on a modified version of the Year Zero Engine.

Instead of relying on combat to solve every conflict, it is crucial that the players investigate for clues and uncover the rules of the supernatural behind the mysteries.

It's a rules-light system with heavy emphasis on role playing.

Ideally, I'm looking for 4-5 players.

We’re a couple (M27 & F27) from the U.S. vacationing in Japan and visiting Osaka for the first time! Will be there Oct 12 - Oct 16th!
Looking for a local or anyone interested in getting dinner/drinks with us or showing us their favorite spot!☺️

Oct 14th we’re going to universal but otherwise no exact plans while we’re here.

Our interests include fashion/shopping, horror movies, anime, and we’re big foodies! We don’t speak much japanese but that’s not a problem cus translation apps exist! Comment or msg if you want to get to know us, thank you? 😇🇯🇵

Osaka | Oct now–15🇯🇵

Hello girlies! 😁🫰🏼

I’m a 29 from America, and I’ll be in Osaka from now until Oct 15th (then headed to Tokyo)

Would love some friendly gals pals for sightseeing,shopping or cafes etc. 🛍️☕️

If you’ll be in Osaka and want company please dm me
I’ll be in Kyoto tomorrow (Monday 12th)

39M Asian Chinese (but I can't speak mandarin ) heading to USJ on the 30th of Nov to conquer the rides. Looking for buddies to conquer them together.

Let's get our best shot for the Nakanoshima photo contest! To enter, you just have to take a photo between October 14-31 and submit. One of us should win it! Let's go together and hut for the winning shot.

We'll begin on the west side of Nakanoshima park and explore going east. We'll have lots to shoot, include flowers, people, and city scapes.

This is open to photographers of all skill, experience, and camera types. Curious about trying photography? Don't have a camera yet? Just use your phone! Just a no-pressure photo walk with good vibes.

ちょっと日本語を話せます。是非、来てください！

The OG host, Paolo, is out of town for the moment, so it'll be me, Juan, filling in.

The Plan

• 4:00 PM: Meet & Greet.
• 4:15 PM: We'll begin on the west side of Nakanoshima park and explore going east.
• 6:00 PM: Wrap-up, maybe around the east side of Nakanoshima, near the museum area. For those interested, we can go for a dinner or snack.

What to bring

• Any camera: Whether it's a pro setup or your phone, it’s all about the eye, not the gear.
• Comfortable shoes: We’ll be walking roughly 2–3km at a leisurely pace.

Why join
This isn't a photography class—it’s a social walk. Whether you want to practice your composition or just find some cool people to hang out with in Osaka, you are welcome here.

Contribution
There is a 500 yen participation fee for this event.

28M from Scotland - can vibe with most music

Based here for 3 months, looking for mates for hang outs in general. Trying to learn photography with my new camera so always keen for exploring new spots n such.

Love games, RnB and HipHop music especially but again, can vibe with most genres.

Need some friends to experience the nightlife and the general vibes of Osaka!

Hmu if you're keen, had an unsuccessful night tryna make friends in Irish bars n such so any tips on where to meet folks or such is greatly appreciated 🙏🏽

36M traveling solo to Osaka 9-12 Oct. Would be cool to find some people to go to Universal Studios with on Fri/Sat for Halloween Horror Nights. I am also going to see Lorna Shore at Namba Hatch on Sunday and it would be nice to meet some fellow metal heads before the concert.

Hey, 27M here. I’ve been living in Japan for over a year now. I’m looking for friends to do things with on some weekends. I don’t live in Osaka but I frequent there almost every weekend.

I enjoy doing activities like bowling or darts. I’ve recently gotten into photography. Not good yet but I’m trying haha.

If you’re interested just let me know.
