TOKYO (AP) — Called “Tokyo Futari Story,” the city hall's new initiative is just that: An effort to create couples, “futari,” in a country where it is increasingly common to be “hitori," or alone. While a site offering counsel and general information for potential lovebirds is online, a dating app is also in development. City hall hopes to offer it later this year, accessible through phone or web, a city official said Thursday.
