This sounds a little dystopian. Almost like arranged marriages. Instead of creating an app for dating, I think the Japanese government needs to undergo severe reforms of employment, and work/life balance. There is so little time for actual dating.

My understanding is that Japanese men work ridiculous hours, and they are expected to go out drinking with their coworkers after work, and by the time they get home, they can only get sleep before they have to return to work the next day. The relentless salary man focus cannot possibly lend itself to proper dating, courtship, marriage, and children.
