Even though you matched with a pretty woman on a Dating-app in Japan,
no-reply from her. So? How to get a reply from her?
I read a survey of 2291 Japanese women about it.
And then, I searched similar but non-Japanese articles.
Refer to American Media:
WHAT’S YOUR IDEA OF THE PERFECT FIRST MESSAGE ON A DATING APP?
The Japanese women's expectation of the first message on a dating app is way different from non-Japanese women's.
And those articles convinced me of those differences.
So, you should know what kind of the first message Japanese women like!
In Japan, the message sounds not funny or very passionate.
And tend to a bit longer.
Maybe it sounds a boring message because it's stiff.
But, that is the Japanese style!
If a Japanese woman gets just a funny flirting short text from a guy as the first message, she would label the guy is "Chara-o (チャラ男)" = Shallow, Playboy.
And of course, she highly likely won't reply.
The first message means a message to a stranger, so, Japanese people wanna be polite and kinda formal, it's not casual from the beginning.

Japanese women comment about guys first messages
⭕️
When the guy write his introduction and he wrote his real name, it's nice. I feel like replying to him.
⭕️
He should tell his real name. I think that is kinda politeness. And I feel safe if he does that.
⭕️
I like him to mention about my tweet.
It makes me feel easy to communicate with him.
❌
If he asked me about something I've already written in my profile,
I think, "Why he sent me 'LIKE' although he didn't read my profile!"
❌
So many guys' first messages are only "Thank you for matching me" or so.
In such a case, I only wanna say "you're welcome", and there is nothing else to continue the conversation.
