Japanese style washed out look
some examples:
Anyone know how to achieve this kind of effect using Capture One Pro? I've did some googling and there's some guides for Lightroom but none for Capture One, I could replicate the process in Capture One but obviously it's missing a few things from Lightroom such as the White and Black slider.
It would be even better if someone could share a preset and style.

It looks to me like reduced saturation and reduced contrast. If your blacks are too black or your whites too white you can try using the Levels tool, dragging in the output sliders at the top (not the sliders at the bottom). Also perhaps lightening the mid tones by dragging the middle slider on Levels (at the bottom) to the left.
Does that work?

Like these two versions of the same photo, one as I originally processed it and one altered as I suggested.

Some photos seem to work when you reduce saturation and reduce contrast, but how about the really bright ones? Did the photographer increase exposure and brightness during or post or he intentionally overexposure the image while capturing (ETTR) ?
Here's another example, I actually prefer this compared to the previous ones I shared. As you can see some photos retain their colour and contrasts, so I don't think reduce saturation and contrast played a major role here0 -
It looks like a lot of different filter techniques, especially in that third link. But like the above poster said, bringing up your black levels and flattening the contrast will get you close. You can then also do a brightness bump followed by bringing back the highlights (highlights/shadow tool). 0 -
You can use curves tool.
You need to drop the black point to right side and upper .
You will change the "curve of your film" like this effects....0
