No-pan shabu-shabu was tip of illicit iceberg for MOF bureaucrats
October 7, 2011
Included in a series of articles inside Shukan Post (Oct. 7) discussing the complete power the Ministry of Finance (MOF) wields over Japan is a sidebar that explains that trips to an infamous restaurant in Tokyo’s Kabukicho red-light district over a decade ago were just the tip of the iceberg as far as the illicit entertainment of bureaucrats.
In the late ’90s, sexually-charged entertainment for MOF bureaucrats came in two forms. Widely known was that which was sponsored by bankers assigned to the ministry, but what few realized was that other members within the Kasumigaseki community also acted as hosts.
“The other ministries were in search budgetary allotments,” says a retired ministry official. “Those ministries would send someone who went to the same university in the same year as MOF officials for hard night out on the town.”
Entertainment costs were paid by corporations that a particular ministry oversees. The erotic arrangements were similar to that of what the banks offered, with reports of ventures to the now-defunct Loulan no-pan shabu-shabu restaurant in Kabukicho, where hostesses served without underpants, eventually becoming symbolic of government excess at the time. (For a list of members from various ministries and public corporations who dined at Loulan check this site.) Read more
Tokyo trends: Deflation cutting hand-job prices to the bone
October 4, 2011
It’s a familiar nighttime routine: You are out in Shimbashi, drunk, and the last train has passed. What to do?
While pondering the predicament a young Chinese gal materializes on a nearby corner. “Excuse me, sir?”
Thus begins a survey of quickie sex services from weekly tabloid Shukan Asahi Geino (Sept. 15), which finds that prices are plummeting in the current deflationary environment.
“We can get you a room for 5,000 yen,” she continues.
“Ah, but I’ve only got 3,000 yen,” the crafty writer counters.
In Tokyo’s entertainment areas, below-the-belt services for 5,000 yen are in abundance, but many lucky lads are getting away with much less. Read more

Tokyo junior high school teacher arrested after drugging, filming 99 females
July 8, 2011
“You must be pregnant, and I will tell all.”
That phrase is certainly not something to be uttered by a junior high school teacher, but that was what 56-year-old Yuji Kurimoto, who was taken into custody on June 28 by officers from the Higashi Yamato Police Department, used to threaten multiple girls after he drugged them and committed obscene acts, reports weekly tabloid Shukan Jitsuwa (July 21).
Kurimoto, a teacher at Ritsujosui Middle School in Tokyo’s Kodaira City, was arrested for violating the welfare of minors. His downfall began after this message on his website caught the attention of a 15-year-old girl: “I am Hiro, 32 years old. Want to meet up in the city for 80,000 yen?”
They rendezvoused at a hotel in Tokyo’s Kabukicho red-light district on May 6. He filmed the subsequent sexual encounter.
“Kurimoto used the prospect of fat cash to appeal to a young girl and asked her to meet up,” a local beat writer tells the tabloid. “But after she refused, he sent 100 emails to her over a span of two days. Once the girl became emotionally drained, he said he would stop if she would agree to send a photo of herself topless. Once she agreed with the request, he then threatened her by saying he would distribute it.” Read more
Tohoku tremors send sex-service gals scampering southward
April 29, 2011
While the general mood of consumer self restraint that has followed the Great East Japan Earthquake has extended to Kansai, that area’s fuzoku industry — the commercial sex trade, to be clear — is showing signs of stimulation, reports Shukan Jitsuwa (May 5).
The tabloid says that fuzoku girls from Tohoku are moving to Tokyo, which in turn is seeing its gals go to Kansai, a development that has guys licking their chops, or rather, getting their chops licked.
“A week after the earthquake we started to see this shift,” says a writer covering the fuzoku trade. “In terms of types of services, most of them are working in health clubs” — which have nothing to do with fitness but everything do with blow-jobs — “and soaplands in Kobe’s Fukuhara red-light district. One can even hear Tokyo accents in quickie joints located in Osaka brothel areas like Tobita Shinchi and Kujo.”
One 24-year-old female health employee, who used to work in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro area, tells the tabloid why she moved: “Tokyo still has aftershocks and supplies in general are insufficient. I cannot focus well. While some may say they don’t like Osaka, I am fine with it.” Read more
