I really want to take this super cute girl on a picnic date in tokyo, but it’s been really cold lately.
I don’t think its cold at noon but it’s super cold at around 4-5
Has anyone else had picnics in a park at tokyo lately??
Any recommendations??
Edit: I’ve never had picnics before okay so idk if it’s normal to have it in fall! Plus its not like I’m trying to save money or sth, we’re both women who like art, so I figured a picnic/drawing date would be nice since we can’t really paint at a restaurant.
Also if you think that this is a silly question, just ignore it lmaoo why bother replying if you’re not even trying to help 😮💨
I was just curious about other people’s tolerance to the cold. She’s the type to say that she’s not cold even when she’s shivering and I don’t get cold easily, so I figured I asked this sub to find out if its too cold for other people.

That’s a personal question. Is it to cold for you to eat outside ?
I think it’s too cold to sit on the ground and eat. However, you could be prepared with a picnic blanket, hot thermos of tea and or soup, as well as the classic “have my coat, you’re shivering” maneuver. And as always, listen to her. If she says she wants to go somewhere else or hints at it…then go!
Couple of strongs to go with the picnic and the cold will abate. And when it does get cold, retreat to karaoke or a loveho to warm up.
Good luck.
Last chance is this Thursday as far as warm weather and holidays/weekends are concerned. After that, it will be cold from then on.
**A:** In Japanese women, cold tolerance has a nonlinear relationship to hair length. Japanese women with very short hair (descending to the top of a standard collar and shorter) or very long hair (descending below the shoulder blades) can tolerate temperatures nearly 5 degrees lower than Japanese women with shorter hair. (This may be why it is common among Japanese women to go to a hairdresser some time less than a year before moving to Hokkaido).
*OR*
**B:** It depends on the person, the amount of sunshine on that day, dress, and sitting surfaces.
Have a walk with a cup of coffee instead. Humans often like sitting on benches. Don’t sit next to an older human drinking a one cup.
Ask her out on a sunny day.
Bring blankets and a nice warm thermos of coffee
Yes
it’s a bit cold that late in the day, plus it gets dark early
A walk in the park on a reasonably sunny but chilly day might be better than sitting in the wind or shade, since at least you’ll be moving around then
Why don’t you go this week to Shinjuku Gyoen if you are in Tokyo. They are having a special night event

It really depends on the person. Generally speaking, picnic season is already over, and it’s quite cold for average Japanese individuals.
Why not ask her?
Dude… take the lady to a restaurant. Then go for a walk in the park. Alternatively, you could go hiking and bring a lunch to show off your onigiri skills.
A picnic in this weather would be hit or miss.
Is this really something to ask here…
If it’s sunny, it’s definitely fine. We went and it’s wonderful. We usually arrive there about before 12 and leave around 3:30. A bit short but then you get to enjoy and don’t feel cold at all.
Amazing.
Coming up next on r/japanlife’s descent in to trash: “Anyone got opinions on food? When/what/where and how to eat? TIA!”.
Knew a girl that went out with a friend to get kakikoori during a typhoon. So who knows, you may have an exciting date!
If you’re brave enough you can have picnic any time
todays young generation is truly helpless. cant even go to a picnic without asking people on the internet
You could preserve body heat by canoodling under a tartan blanket.
Unless you know she wants to go on a picnic, or you think think needs to understand picnics are part of your life, I would suggest going somewhere else. In any weather. Also unless she’s really into you she might not enjoy the picnic cuz it seriously looks like you might be trying to save money lol. Also how old are you guys?
If you’re still together at 4-5am, she’s a keeper
Your apato. Netflix. Uber eats.
If she likes you this above will sound great to her.
If she doesn’t no amount of picnics or Wagyu beef will sway her.
You have one shot.
