A guide detailing how to seduce girls using top Japanese artist community site Pixiv was recently published.
From the pages of rag “Uramono Japan”:
Tickle the ego of artists by praising their unpopular art!
1. Register and make a profile on Pixiv.
2. It’s best to up some art to your profile (doesn’t matter if you just found it online)
3. Search for the title of a manga, Dragonball or whatever
4. Find pictures with no ratings, etc.
5. Find a girl whose pictures have not been favourited (MyPic) by other users
6. Get friendly with her
Once you have found one send her mail along these lines “I saw this picture of yours – there was something very intriguing about it, I soon came to like it. I draw as well [doesn’t matter if this is a lie], so let’s get to know one another.”
Unappreciated artists receiving admiring praise are unlikely to question your motives.
After this you can strike up an exchange outside the site, and then later ask her if she’d like to visit an art gallery to see some new picture. Then go to a bar – one in three will generally accompany you back to a love hotel after drinking a bit.
Observers are quick to point out flaws (though not, sadly, colossal ethical problems) inherent in this method, not least of which is that anyone capable of executing it could probably manage a girl through normal channels.
Those doubting the efficacy of this method, or at least that there are enough creepy stalker types around trying it on to make it a real problem, can refer to the below announcement, in which Pixiv warns users that there are people using that very unhealthy method and not to trust them – anyone found at it will have their accounts terminated, they say:
However, they also published this in one of their artbooks:
[They got to know each other through Pixiv & MyPic]
6 months later…
“I’m 3 months pregnant.”
“What!? But you said it was OK!?”
“Make sure you take responsibility.”
[Low birth rate issue cleared]
Mixed messages indeed.

Sounds like way too much effort if you're just looking for sex and not an actual relationship.
You can just hold out on the drunken fuck part and just get her to like you <.<
One would assume that's the most appropriate method, but without plagiarizing, and lying early on. Then again, it seems this article is aimed at purely desperate men, or just guys with little to no morals....
Yes, you should be getting laid as often as Sankaku users.
I think the real reasoning behind this plan is to pick up a specific moe-type, instead of the easier girls found in bars, etc. It's a Japan thing.
Yeah, girls on bars are easy, if you are a drugl dealer and they want their "dosis"
haha, i was thinking the same thing...
really shallow men who take advantage of a womans feelings just to become probably a one night stand.
Too much work. The success rate would be around 100% for a philanderer such as myself, but all of you nerds are fucked. It will not work for you.
Yeah cause sending an email, copy pasting a picture, and filling out a registration form is sooooo hard.
Weren't there already tons of guys online trying this method anyway? All I know is that any girl I see on deviant art that looks even "decent" has tons of watchers. I can only think this would be the same for pixiv.
Since it's Japan; the "It's so crazy, IT JUST MIGHT WORK!" motto could prove us all wrong.
@Darkrockslizer:
They're sheep, remember?
Isn't it faster to go to the bar and find a flirt right there??
but nobody at a bar would have shitty artistic abilities they are willing to put onto the internet, now do they?
Here, Here.
Oh Japan, the only place that thinks beer is the only answer to getting loose enough for a fling with a woman. So naive.
Kaikaku means plan and it's Japanese.
Keikaku.
Kaikaku means "seashell."
yeah yeah and PUTOS mean 'fags' in Maid.
Sorry for double post...
You meant keikaku.
Vodka means water not beer and its Russian...
In german, beer means water.
Vodka means water not beer....
It's correct like this: in BAVARIA beer means water.
(the actual translation of water 'd be "Wasser" but really, don't drink sparkling water in Bavaria!)
In bavaria beer is mana.
Well at least there are many germans who trink beer like its water but i dont think that counts in sense of translation. xD
Btw i dont like beer except Malzbier. ^^
Also harder stuff is better suited for getting someone drunk. Alcopops for example if they dont die because of the sugarshock...
A lot of you fail at languages.
Some of you fail at languages
Yeah, and in german, "gift" means "poison"...
But beer is supposedly a God's gift to happiness. :V
Sounds similar to the way certain women look for money and not an actual relationship, doesn't it? The only difference is women don't have to put in the same amount of effort to snag a sucker... err, a suitable mate.
Who says there's no gender equality in Japan?
Truth
Obviously the author has the time to write this article but probably don't have the skillz to get laid himself.
fuck! uramono japan!!
Poor pixiv user...
I think this can only happen in Japan, it's easy to travel around the country, so you can easily date the girl you find on the internet.
I want to have sex with the girls on pixiv. With the girls in the pictures, that is.
I saw that Pixiv "Don't Talk To Strangers" notice. First I thought I was in trouble, as I'm known to ask (purely innocent) questions around there from time to time. Then I realized this was in response to some less savoury folk and not us gaijin.
So all you people think about all day is sex eh?
So some guys gets lucky once and thinks he has a winning strategy.
I hope he knows that girls reads these things too.
Also posting art that isn't yours, how lame.
Draw your own damn art you big fat loser.
i like how this is actually an issue for pixiv.
this is no different from people hooking up through myspace, facebook or any other social media site, the only issue of concern here is the fact that those who are trying this method are not artists at all and are just in it for the pussy.
"2. It’s best to up some art to your profile (doesn’t matter if you just found it online)"
Art theft is so arousing.
What is this magazine!? Sounds really sketchy...
It is.
This is genius...
I get to knew someone in DA...maybe I should try this one :3
Whoever tries to do such a thing should be ashamed. Not only because they're a complete loser, but also because it proves that they have no social life.
Oh to be amoral and in Japan! j/k This really does seem like 'the total asshole method to picking up Japanese girls on the internet' though. It's kind of sad.
Low birth rate!? -_- Give me a fucking break....if you want to solve this issue...go freaking ask the Chinese...they've apparently cleared this issue pretty well >_>
... Hahahaohwow.
Useless for those outside Japan. I lurk there almost everyday and still a virgin.
Pixiv itself is classed as a social networking site, so nothing too surprising I suppose.
This made my night/morning
I have an account but i haven't gotten into settings to disable that stupid filter, haven't been on in awhile also hard to navigate being a weeaboo and all.
Less Furries eh? Sounds like my kind of place.
To be fair, it did seem to me like that last artbook page was just for humor's sake.
Yeah, good luck with that...
all I have to say about this is: this is not a good keikaku.
WTF IS THIS SHIT! oh gawd even if works that cheap flirting will start to fail with so many guys saying it!
What a method....
"Then go to a bar – one in three will generally accompany you back to a love hotel after drinking a bit."
Can't you just go to a bar, pick a girl, ply her with alcohol and get what you want all the same? Takes far less time (& effort) than the entire Piviv process.
If you're in luck she's already slightly drunk and you'll even save on the alcohol money!
then spike her drink with rufilin and youre good to go
msg in beer would work
nah just kidding
dont even try that
i heard from a few of my buddies that it really screws up with people
Hey, some of us can't sweet talk their way into getting any mildy atractive girl to drink with us. It has to work on the first glass, 'cuz you never get the chance to offer a second.
find a drunk girl in a bar. There, problem solved. just make sure you're not around when she wakes up
Anon puts the "sensual" back into non-consensual.
so your buddies tried that?
hmm, interesting.... o.O
Now I see what kind of people frequent this website..
And this surprises you how exactly? o_0
if they are japanese additives should be unneccessary (remember low tolerance to alcohol)
it saves up money as well ^^
I never really got what Pixiv was... is it basically just Japan's version of Deviant Art?
ide say pixiv is way better than deviantArt.
It's pretty good. A great place to find some decent fan-art of things you like. Some of them are pretty much on par with professionals (this could be because the person who drew them actually are professionals).
Yes, but slightly more refined
They also allow hentai, which makes them infinitely better than DA.
ah, now I see...
Is it more refined than ConceptArt?
i thought DA was for loser 2d images, the only thing good there are photos and others but not manga and anime 2d style
^ Truer words have never been spoken.
DA has awesome manga styled art, you just have to wade through truckloads of shit in form of sonic x inuyasha fanfics and notebook doodles of naruto yaoi by 13 y/o to get to the good stuff. You also need to take off your shitty "lol weeaboo can't draw like japanese" googles; manga style is not a genetic trait.
The livejournaling and circle jerking faggotry is what kills it though, it's extremely irritating. Thankfully we have pixiv, where it's about the art, not the "community".
No. It's basically DeviantArt with hentai and 99% less furries. And almost zero shitty journals/comments.
Basically what DA should be.
Pixiv Website now has the repuation being an Art Community to for looking up sex partners.
Very much more refined. Pixiv isn't full of shit, unlike DeviantArt.
Don't ever compare Pixiv with DA. Unlike DA, Pixiv don't ban loli and shotas, don't have shitty moderators, less (if not none) trolls and lifeless flaggers, less crappy but overrated "artists", etc, etc..
Oh god lol
Fail method
You would think so but it sounds like it would work. it easy to seduce those who crave praise.
You have such a big sexy brain Pen-sama! 8)
so.. did it work?
Appreciate art, get laid, and have a kid; Think of the possibilities!
Possibilities like having to pay aliment? :P
>and have a kid; Think of the possibilities!
Somehow, on this board, this sounds creepy >D
appreciate art: 5 %
get laid: 1 % (at best)
have a kid: ... 0 % she cant find me cause i`m a con artist as well
Let me [http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=865778] give it a shot.
I'll report back if I score.
GO FOR IT BRO!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, isn't Atashi a way to say "I" or "me" in a very girly way? :|
eeeeew! 3DPD.
the entire point of this post was how to catch them 3D lolis. If you wanted 2D, you would have stayed within Pixiv, wouldnt you?
Are you in Japan? I reckon it would be mighty hard to put it off if you are arranging to meet that girl in a bar in downtown New York...
btw, are you even a male? Even your name: Atashi and all that....
The Atashi I remember (who even wrote articles for SanCon for a short time) is indeed female... what's the problem there? All the more awesome... I'd say the possible distance of several thousand kilometers would be the real issue.
*Pixiv-bookmarked..*
Sorry, can't help it..
Go for it! I'm rooting for you ~_^
There are no girls on pixiv silly.
Ahahahah the creator of this method must be a dreamer
The creator of this method must be a female member hungry for sex, and trying to attract males to her.
Its a trap...those males arranging to meet in a bar never come out the same again.
if they even DO come out in the first place though
LULZ! they r all rapist and organ dealers D: any1 who falls for that cheap flirting or is to naive or ir a organ dealer D:
