Love-Chanko Entry Requirements
[QUOTE=The Hooligan;1489983]Is Love Chonko friendly to those who don't speak any Japanese? I'd love to try this place out but I don't speak any Japanese.[/QUOTE]TH,
The first time I went to Love Chanko I was given a "thorough" language testing. I wrote about it in a post long ago. Essentially, the tencho handed me the laminated "rules" sheet and asked me to read the card out loud and explain to him in Japanese what the card said and meant. I selected a few lines of text I recognized and rambled off the standard business response. No tattoos, no rough stuff, no one drunk, etc. Eventually he gave me approval and made a member's card for me. Nevertheless, our entire conversation was in Japanese. I haven't been there in at least 4 months but the last time I was there a different tencho (as expected) was running the show. I walked right up, told him my name and he pulled my card from a file. I selected a provider, paid the moola and off I went to do my business no questions asked.
So, is this place:

Gaijin friendly? You betcha, but you might need slightly more than basic Japanese language skills.
