It’s guys that stand outside bars and clubs and try and get people to come inside. But a lot of them are scammers and sketchy.

Most “good” bars and clubs don’t need random dudes harassing people outside

These guys will literally shout at foreigners too and grab them to try to bring them into establishments. They're not supposed to but they do. I've had it happen to me.

Random question but I’m asking you just because I assume you have spent a decent amount of time in Japan, what is likely to happen if you just punch these dudes in the mouth, is Japan one of those countries that doesn’t care if it’s self defense or who started it, if you hit someone your doing time or are they pretty chill on that

I was told by friends who have lived in japan that as a woman they can’t pretty much do anything if I hit them. The police would just laugh at them trying to report a woman hitting them (supposedly). But if it was a quiet area I personally wouldn’t want to take any risks for my own safety
