I've been at this hobby for only a couple of months. Due to personal reasons that I'd rather not get into, I very much prefer Japanese to an almost absurd degree. I'm from LI, so getting to Queens/Flushing is no problem. However, there aren't a lot of Japanese in this area as I've come to learn. Maybe I'm wrong cause I'm new and "not in the know," but I just can't find a lot of Japanese.
The only places I've been able to consistently find Japanese in Queens are clubs like Nysexye, Jkmier, and Shisanyi1818. However, the prices are ridiculously expensive. As for the Japanese I have seen in Queens: Miku from Nancy's, a girl from Nysexye, and Karin from Pink Angel. Miku was great, but she was a little older and is no longer there anyway. Nysexye was ok, but the prices are absolutely absurd and I'm not paying that shit again. Karin was great but she's gone too.
Manhattan seems to be the place for Japanese (1010, XOXO, NYCSE, etc). The prices are much lower vs Nysexye/Jkmier999 (hourly is $340 for 2 pops compared to $400 for only 1 pop and $500 for 2 pops) and there's an abundance of girls. The thing is, it's Manhattan, so it's a massive pain in the ass to get to. I would have to take the train which I hate and it would really be more of an all-day affair rather than the couple of hours for Queens.
For anyone who can help me: Is it worth making the trip to Manhattan just to get Japanese? Or is it better to wait the potential months it could take for a young one-off Japanese to come to Queens? And are there any places with a consistent Japanese lineup that don't cost an arm and a leg that I don't know about?
