Health, Long-Established, Kawaguchi

Elon, with 20-plus years in the fuzoku world, breaks down health (fashion health), long-established shops, and Kawaguchi from firsthand experience.

Health, Long-Established, Kawaguchi

Today I'm writing on the theme of "health (fashion health), long-established shops, Kawaguchi."

I'll explain it by mixing my own firsthand experience — over 20 years in fuzoku — with what I've dug up through research.

The basics

Let me lay out the fundamentals you should know about this area.

Elon
Elon42, single, living alone. When nearly your entire paycheck disappears into fuzoku, you naturally develop an "eye" for it. That's not a brag and it's not a regret — I'm just writing it down as fact.

Watch this industry long enough and you'll see that the same topic gets rated completely differently depending on whether you take "the customer's view" or "the girl's view."

What I can tell you from experience

I'm talking from what I've actually been through.

ElonAfter getting circumcision surgery and a pearl implant, I now have the confidence of a man who's "ready for anything." My range in the room expanded, sure, but the psychological breathing room is on a whole different level. To anyone agonizing over getting work done: I can say "zero regrets."

I believe experience beats theory. Especially in this business, it's a world where "reps" matter more than "knowledge."

Wrap-up and my conclusion

ElonHaving surveyed the nightlife scene all over the world, my conclusion is that "nightlife rooted in local culture is the richest." By that measure, Japan's fuzoku is world-class. That's not blind favoritism — it's a verdict reached by comparison.

The place I end up visiting most is First Class Ruby. The only reason it keeps showing up on this site is that it's a shop I genuinely repeat at. Take it as a reference.
