Soapland Jobs in Saitama, the Famous Ones

Taniguchi, with 20-plus years in the fuzoku world, breaks down the famous Saitama soapland job scene from firsthand experience.

Soapland Jobs in Saitama, the Famous Ones

"Soapland jobs in Saitama, the famous ones" — I figure that phrase clicks for some people and means nothing to others.

I'm 42 and still out walking this world for real, so I'll pull it together from a ground-level point of view.

Why this topic matters

A lot of fuzoku information is surprisingly disorganized. Beginners especially tend to end up not even knowing where to start looking.

ElonThe first time I went to a soapland in Yoshiwara I was 25. That was back before I'd had the pearl implant done. These days, watching a girl's reaction when I show up with the pearls is one of the little pleasures. The conversation when a girl asks "wait, what is that?" turns out to be surprisingly fun.

What it actually comes down to

In a word: whether you know or don't know changes the quality of the experience.

ElonI don't have any ambition to conquer every soapland in the country, but I've hit the famous "must-visit" shops in each region. My takeaway: service quality and cleanliness don't move in lockstep. There are dirt-cheap shops with downright divine service.

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

In closing

Elon42, single, living alone. When nearly every paycheck disappears into fuzoku, you naturally develop an eye for the real thing. That's not a brag and it's not a regret — just a fact I'm putting on the record.
