A breakdown of what the work involves at Urawa fuzoku, from Taniguchi's 20-plus years of firsthand experience.

Urawa Fuzoku: What the Work Involves

"Urawa fuzoku: what the work involves" — some people hear that phrase and immediately get it, and some don't.

I'm 42 and still walking the floor in this world, so I'm going to lay it out from a real, ground-level point of view.

Why this topic matters

Information about fuzoku (Japan's licensed adult-entertainment business) is surprisingly disorganized. Beginners especially tend to end up not even knowing where to start looking.

What this actually means

In a word: "whether you know it or not changes the quality of the experience."

What I'm writing here is the essence of the knowledge I've built up over 20 years.

To wrap up
