All right, good for us! As for the second one, a good amount of Japanese girls would be shorter than you, but there are some who will be slightly taller, an even smaller few are much taller. On the avarage, I would suspect you're ahead of the curve...
 

Thank you for telling me the detail of the unit.

I think what stopped me from growing much was running too much without eating a lot.
I used to be in the track and field club and my part was long distance running.
We members ran at least over 20km everyday.
Running that much makes you lose the appitite so I couldn't really eat meals dispite the fact my body needed a lot..... I think clubs in Japan are generally really hard.

I used to train to grow my muscle a lot but I'm now 受験生, which means I have to study hell hard like 24/7 so I can't keep on doing it.
What's happening is I'm slightly losing my muscle and gaining fat instead!
 
Yes, proper nutrition is very important for growth, especially protein and calcium.

But . . . juken benkyou ganbatte kudasai! Todai ni hairemasuyouni!

In 1965 or '66 there was a pop music hit titled "Boku wa Kanashii Jukensei".

I remember it well. I was a "Youchi'en-rounin." LOL!
 
We already have a "How tall are you" thread somewhere else on this forum. You might want to check it out.

Personally, I'm a lot taller than both of my parents. I'm 1,78m (5'10"), whereas my dad is 1,63m (5'4") and my mom is only 1,60m (5'3"). They're also both clearly overweight, whereas I'm very slender
 
is being very tall a disadvantage in getting a girl in japan?
I'm 1,92 m and am only 16 years old.
Since I will probably grow some more, the height difference will be very large.
Will that be a big problem?
 
You'll be close to 2m at maturity!

Most women in Japan are between 150cm and 160cm. So, if you insist on someone closer to your height you might have to look for a tall Gaijin woman who is too tall for most Japanese men.
 
For me it is no problem.
What I meant was, is it a problem for Japanese females?
 
There are some tall japanese girls

I'm 6'2" and my Japanese ex-girlfriend was 6'1".

tall girls find it hard to get boyfriends in japan, thats where I come in, I can't date short girls as it hurts my neck, physcially speaking.

It could be if there's too much size difference, but I wouldn't worry about it.

That is very rare indeed. You can barely find any men in Japan who are 6'1".
 
I will be in Tokyo in 2 weeks with some of my friends. Two of them are 190 cm and 192 cm. I can imagine only two heads higher than the others in the street. Will Japanese people be curious of them or won't notice at all, because there are a lot of tall gaijins in Tokyo ?
 

Donchoo worry about it. No one will care. Your friends are men, no?

If they are women, they might turn heads.

No they are man. Yes, I could guess it won't surprise in Toyko.
 
T.T I'm almost 16 and I'm 5'2... I think I'd fit in in Japan.
 
I'm 12 and a girl and i am 172 cm. when ur this tall at young age, u find out that being tall ain't the best thing... sigh*. But in japan most high school girls should even be shorter than me, i heard...
