Overview
Before 2010, Daniel focused entirely on video games and anime without pursuing a girlfriend, but beginning in 2010 at age 21, he traveled to Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan to pursue romantic and sexual relationships.
Daniel favored Asian women, specifically Japanese women, pointing to his anime interest, basic Japanese language ability, and an absence of interest from local women in England.
Daniel described his overseas pursuits, including having his first sexual experience in Japan in 2010 with a Korean woman, staying in Japanese guesthouses where success became increasingly difficult, remaining three months in one guesthouse without a partner, experiencing a same-sex encounter during a low point, staying a month in the home of a night-shift Taiwanese woman without success, lowering his standards, and feeling what resembled an addiction or obsession.
Daniel defended his international travels for romantic and sexual reasons against criticism, describing such pursuits as natural human behavior and using cereal as an analogy.
Daniel switched to a cooking demonstration, preparing fried rice with bacon, celery, and vegetables by frying them in sesame oil, mixing in egg and rice, and pressing the mixture to produce a scorched flavor.
