Nice find with Kira Kira. Hadn't heard of it before. It sounds like a "gal" style place by the name alone. Lots of tanned / blonde girls there?

No, it's just the name. They used to be called Mermaid. To summarize its strong points, it is cheap, the service is good, and they've been foreigner friendly a long time. Also as a soapland it's quick you walk in and if there's a girl you play and bang and give a goodbye hug on your way, no love hotel and waiting like with DH. No negotiation for FS, you'll get it. The weak points is you get what you pay for, the average girl is decent but not a stunner. But that can happen with more expensive tourist traps. You can pick and reserve a girl, and the photos are accurate but they will always show the woman's best side. When I went, you could play 2 or 3 times at Kira Kira for what a higher end place in Tokyo will charge. However they have since raised prices slightly. It is still a good value and a great way for a tourist to experience it and find out if they really want to spend more on the next level up.

Just for illustration I'll include a few photos of girls I'd pick if I went today. Keeping in mind that at any given time, 4 girls might be working but 2 might be busy. If all 4 are working, it might mean you have to wait a little or a lot, depending on if you went at a slow or busy time. True of most places.

The first girl looks great so I myself will be cautiously skeptical. Maybe this photo was taken 3-5 years ago or whatever. Other two photos look cute too. It's possible to get a cute young girl but I just don't expect it often at this price point. But sometimes it's because the girl is new. Every girl I saw had several good points even though they were not stunners. Nice tits, nice pussy, a little cute (not a lot but it was there), not old. 20-35.

Visiting Kira Kira

https://maps.app.goo.gl/FPZJmDsaAjvraKE6A Google Maps link.

You can best find Kira Kira by starting at the Hinodecho station. I go to the river and find the bridge with bus stop. Go down that small alley on the left and you'll see Kira Kira (yellow building). Notice the green sign, that's the key. Also included is a photo from the other direction, the building is now pink.

I write this all out because 20 years ago people helped me get started, and I've had 20 years of a lot of fun. And I know some people are on a budget and can only read for enjoyment, maybe to try it themselves years later. If you enjoy this, help others in the future do the same. So to summarize some facts, I entered the shop at 3:03 pm and exited 4:18 pm using the 70 minute course. They gave me exactly 70 minutes with the girl by my watch. I paid 26 k yen which is $169, for 70 minutes. I will now narrate my 70 minute course experience with Mona based on my journal.

I found the bridge and took the alley and found the Kira Kira sign. I was practicing what I'd say so I passed it once then went in the 2nd time. He asked "Yoyaku" (reservation) and I said no, it's my first time (Hajimete). He ushered me to the waiting area which is many chairs. Asked me what country I'm from and my name (USA, and I can say any name this is just for the girl). He wrote that down for the girl. Showed me 2 girls that were available (laminated photos) and I asked him to recommend one and he did, Mone. Saying she had good service. Asked me how many minutes and I said 70. He brought out a two sided paper listing many rules in English. I read and signed it, it is all common sense. Don't hurt the girl, you must cooperate with hygene like shower, no abuse, no filming, etc. He suggested bathroom and drink if I wanted. Take this chance to pee, don't worry soapland includes full cleaning. A lot. I got squeaky clean.

They had given me a numbered chip like you were ordering boba, and soon they announce the girl. Mona greeted me and led me upstairs, and we entered a room. I've attached an example soapland room but it is NOT the Kira Kira one. Kira Kira is much smaller but I don't have a picture. If you go to a higher end one you'll get a better room, but it's a luxury. Kira Kira is practical, even fun and cozy in my opinion.

My experience with Mona
Mona is 30's and has tits, petite, face is kind of cute but not amazing. Good enough. She took my shoes and put it in a basket for them. She asked me what I wanted to do today. If you are English only, whip out a translator and say it simple, like "Give me a standard course and then let's have sex". Once it's just the two of you you can just say what you want. In my case I said I watch JAV and want it to be just like that.

She started the bath to let it fill. She had me sit on 'the stool' and washed me thoroughly, cool. She gave me a toothbrush and mouth wash to brush and rinse. Then we got into the bath. She lifted me onto her knees and sucked me, a totally new position which is a bit easier in a bath due to buoyancy. I asked for standing, so we switched to that as she worshiped me from below. I stayed in the bath for a few minutes as she mixed the gel for the nuru play. There is an inflatable mattress and we got on, first me laying on my belly as she was lubed on her arms and reaching under to grab and stimulate me. Then she put my leg on her as she rubbed me all over, while I ran my arms and legs over her body gently. She had see cup naturals and I enjoyed running my hands all over them especially her nipples, with the lube it's fun and easy. She could do new things to me too. She sucked me more, then we switched to 69. Finally she washed me off and we went to the bed to continue more sucking. She got a condom and we banged happily many ways. She also sucked me off again after, and I was done.

I lay next to her as she rubbed my head. Then I got up over her and kissed her body and asked her to spread for me. I was done but just wanted to have a look when she said "sawate mo ii" meaning I can also touch, so I rubbed her gently. She said I could lick so I ate her for a bit too. Every girl is different and she had a good looking pussy, great. You never know from looking at a girl's face how her pussy looks, so don't assume. She got really into it so I kept going, it wasn't what I came for but lots of spontaneous fun. After we were done playing, I had a few simple requests. Then we chatted. We talked a lot about random things like a friend who always orders takoyaki without tako (it's rare but allowed), Doubutsu no Mori, Dr Stone, Disneyland. She helped me look things up as we hugged. I said some nice things to her and she had a nice smile. I like to keep things natural and if a girl is good, make a connection with her. Soon it was time to go and she took me to the stool and rinsed me again.

She asked "You're probably not going to extend the time, right?" No, I say. She asks just in case, you can if you like extend the time and pay the difference as long as the girl isn't already booked. She told me when she was born, making her 30. A bit of English so we spoke mostly Japanese. Lastly, I had some tea with her, there was also coke and water as choices. Mini fridge there. I mentioned that there's nothing quite like soapland outside Japan. She said that Japanese love soapland! There is a room phone and she called downstairs saying we were going.

Hope you enjoyed, notice my 70 minute course took only 75 minutes when adding the 5 minutes of waiting time. Super time efficient once you step in the shop. This is one advantage of soap over delivery. The other being no negotiating for fs and a fully dedicated room. Delivery on the other hand has many advantages like more choices in girls, and if your hotel supports it it could end up being convenient. However, many hotels don't and you'll need to handle the love hotel.

I've now tried Taitanic twice and I can confirm that is foreigner friendly and worth the money.

I've seen Romi and Rin.

https://escort-taitanic.com/2024/11/04/rin/

Place is really easy to deal with. I just messaged them and had everything set up in a matter of minutes.

Awesome intel. Choice an competition will make other shops do better too. I would bet in 1-2 years there will be way more shops like these.

I want to list useful posts on Kira Kira to help introduce people new to this. It is a good option for those curious about soapland and just want to "try it out" cheap. Kira Kira is good value and offers nuru in a room designed for it. I am not into fs yet enjoyed it. They now have a foreigner portal website!
https://kirakira.eroticguide.tokyo/ Kira Kira for foreigners
https://kirakira.yokohama/ Kira Kira Japanese website, slow due to 20th century technology

Foreigners have a minimum 70 minutes now at 31,000 yen ($200). It is still an amazing value if you're not sure about paying more for a higher end place and just want to walk in and try it once. Maybe you will like it and then try delivery health next. Worst case, you have a unique experience and didn't spend a lot to try it once.

See these past Kira Kira posts explaining everything:

Romi is a nice pichi Japanese girl with perfect tits.

Rin is idol style, taller, slim.

I had Romi at a love hotel in Yokohoma that was suggested by the shop. Total damage 47,000 included DFK, DATY, BBBJ, 69, FS (though I paid for AF).

Rin was sent over to me in Atsugi, just outside JMSDF. She got into my hotel with no trouble. Total damage 42,000 including DFK, HJ, 69 and BBBJCIMNQNS.

It would be hard to decide between the two. Kind of different styles.

Place is really easy to deal with. I just messaged them and had everything set up in a matter of minutes.

Afterwards a semi-decent massage and then the timer went off. Overall experience was good for a Thursday afternoon after being turned down so many times. Touts seemed nice and asked where I was from and we chatted a little. I guess the key to success is to be friendly with them and hope that they will at least pass you a decent one to work with!

Two things help, the time of day and week, next your speaking ability / cooperation level. If things are slow the manager might okay some foreigners during that time but it is up to the discretion of the staff. If it's a no just move on, complaining on the spot is not going to help and would just the cooperation factor being a miss.

This is the basic test of "Is this guy going to follow basic rules or cause trouble" A normal customer is looking for fun and if it's a no, they move on to the next fun. There is a minimum language requirement, it is not a whole lot but I would say 1st year Japanese for many places (depending on how much you need to communicate with girls). So ironically I could only get into oppai pubs 20 years ago because that required the least Japanese and I only studied 3 months.

With 3 months I could not get into hostess clubs at first because that is all talking so you need at least some Japanese. By year 2 of Japanese that was enough so I went to a girls bar in Osaka and it was amazing. No touch but the girls were really cute, it was super cheap all you can drink, and they made me feel very comfortable. I still don't know why they don't charge more but I was lucky in some ways since I went off-hours and I'm sure not every girl there is going to be cute. I suppose with the right girl it's always going to work out no matter what the action. I tried finding the place next year but they closed. Places come and go a lot. So I looked up online and that's how I ended up at Hadaka no Ousama (the naked Emperor). Crazy stuff there.

One concern is they are going to tell you rules like "You can finger the girl but don't be rough" or "You can do anything but penetration at this shop" and it is imperative that guys use common sense and understand what they say. It takes just one or two guys breaking those rules to get foreigners banned. Japanese guys can already read the many stickers on the wall saying the fine for non-consensual sexual assault, and for good reason because if you don't pay for something and the girl doesn't let you, that's wrong and they have every right to call you out for it. In other words there is a lot of fun to be had and a shop for everything, so just find the shop that lets you do what you want rather than making girls do things you didn't pay them for. Anyways, that is why following rules is so important and the bare minimum language factor (and common sense cooperation) being pretty important.

The foreigner friendly places like Kira Kira, they literally give you the printed rules in English, Chinese, Korean after you tell them what country you're from. This is for first-timers. They have you sign it, saying you won't hurt the girls and follow those rules. No problem with that, since every rule is basic common sense like "don't rape" or "don't film" etc.. I suppose most shops do not have printed out forms in 4 languages, so they have to rely on the honor / trust system when they invite you in. So let's keep the good thing going if they do.

The minimum language requirement is not just for the shop, it is for your benefit too. Once you get into a soapland the girl might ask you what you want. Ask you where you're from and what you do, etc. If you can't do the minimum, it isn't going to be nearly as fun. The point of soapland is to have fun. So choose the type of place you go accordingly.

Thanks guys. Good timing reviving this thread. I was considering Yokohama next week. Are the girls with the face photos on the Kira Kira site legit and recent? There's one I think is decent.

Are there other places like Kira Kira in the Yokohama area?

The two girls I saw, the photos were of them, face censored. A shop is going to show the best side of a girl though so I find it best not to expect anything from liking a photo. In the USA agencies go crazy with photoshop and fake photos, or use old photos from years ago. At least Japan doesn't go that far in my experience.

Girls come and go so a few months later some girls will still be there, some gone for good. That's normal everywhere.

There are other soaplands but I heard this place might allow foreigners and I went out of convenience / curiosity. As I said I'm not into soapland but if I was more serious I would try others since I can speak decently enough. If you haven't gone to any, I suppose it only makes sense to try the most open one first. If your Japanese level is very low, it may be hard. They would have to ask the girl or just know it's not possible. When my Japanese level was low, most (80%) soaplands refused me or offered an extra charge. And they should in hindsight, lack of communication is less enjoyable and causes problems for both sides. People who can't speak any Japanese at all should not be using soapland.

Do they kick you out after the first one? Or you get the 50 minutes even if you cum after 10 minutes?

You are paying for 50 minutes, you will get it. I do whatever I want with that time. Always. Even though I've only tried soapland a few times, I've tried other similar systems and in any case in Japan if it is a legit establishment (i.e. run by Japanese), you get what you pay for no matter what.

My first time in Japan 20 years ago I gave them too much at an oppai club and they gave back the extra. I was confused and they insisted I paid them wrong. So I just took their word for it. They do not want a customer to notice later anyways and get upset (I wouldn't have), so they play things by the book almost everywhere.

When time is up, they call the phone in the room and let her know. In case she didn't set an early warning timer. I try to just relax at the end so she doesn't have to take my cock out of her mouth just to say "yeah I got it" to the staff. But that's just me. Now when 50 minutes are up nobody cares if you need a few minutes to get dressed, but I'm sure it would be bad form to try and put your cock back in her mouth. That's a foul.

It would help to have some basic Japanese so there's no miscommunication and so you can enjoy it. It is not that much to ask, I studied Japanese 3 months when I first went and it got me way further than 0 would have.

There is no guarantee a place will take foreigners, even if they took them in the past. These days since I speak well I can get in 90% of sexy places where before I could get in 20%. Most of that is the majority of clubs are "pay to talk". Since oppai pubs focus on kissing and licking the girl, I was ironically let into that but not others like hostess, etc.. The thing is, they were doing me a favor. Years later when I tried more I realize it wouldn't have worked out and I would have just caused trouble for them by not understanding enough Japanese. Each type of shop has a minimum level of communication and etiquette (following common sense rules) required.

I am too old to answer that, I'm sure they would have let me but I didn't try and YMMV.

Is it unlimited shots in 50 minutes?

It's soapland you are going to get FS just don't discuss it with anyone except the girl. The whole business model is they provide a room for the girl and run a timer, the sign outside says 50 minutes for 18000 and that's what you get. You and the girl decide what goes on. The staff wouldn't know, they don't want to know. So no reason to discuss it with them.

I think asking them says you don't know the rules because it's against the law for them to promise that. They can't make a girl have sex with you, but they are allowed to provide a room where it's going to happen.

I've only gone a few times but the girls are cooperative and you can either follow their course or they will take your lead. But I knew what to expect, sex is the whole point of soapland and it's been around for a long time.

Yes, they bring out laminated photos. They may use the same photo as the website. The photo is of her but as you can see from the website some are more censored than others. I suppose I could be bothered to make a reservation but for me it's pretty spontaneous when I can go and I go for the novelty. The starting rate of 18000 is $112 so to me I don't really care just worship me for 50 minutes before I get something to eat.

The clock starts when you walk with the girl upstairs until when you should leave (they aren't super strict in that you can just get dressed at that point, just the action should stop then). So I never felt rushed. First girl I saw simply asked "So what should I do for you?" and I explained I want it to be like JAV and she did just that, full body lube, air mattress play, bathtub sucking, and all.

If you know less Japanese, I would point at each of those things (air mattress in the bath area, bathtub, etc..) and that would be enough. It is not rude to use blowjob gestures with your hand to demonstrate what you want, this is the land of the free when it comes to sexual expression. Clear communication is key. I've had touts communicate exactly this way to me what was offered when I couldn't speak much.

It is not a big room but well designed where half the room is a bedroom and the other half is a bathroom with no wall and floor drainage.

There is a "stool" that you sit on they can wash you on. No spoilers beyond that just be brave.

Nobody is updating Yokohama lately so here I go!

Kira Kira (formerly Mermaid) in Yokohama is a soap that has long allowed foreigners (YMMV). Best to have some basic Japanese and good manners, since the main reason they'd refuse anyone is for someone who doesn't follow common sense rules. This is much more important than your speaking ability, though I think you'll enjoy things a lot more if you can tell the girl what you want.

https://kirakira.yokohama/

The location is very close to Hinodecho station so if I don't have a connecting train to that station I might ask a taxi to take me towards Hinodecho station but tell them to drop me off 1 block before actually arriving. I don't have time to write an in-depth guide now, but the website shows girls and their schedules. You can reserve a girl ahead of time and show up, or just walk in. Since I go solely out of curiosity, I just show up. There is usually 1 or 2 girls free (there can be 4+ girls working at a given time), but it's possible that no girl is free and you have to wait.

If you step in, the first thing they ask you is if you have a reservation aka "yoyaku". There is a waiting room for customers where you sit down at a booth while you wait. They give you a number chip to identify you (i.e. same as a coffee shop). Then they ask you if this is your first time, and where you are from (I. E. USA, etc.). The rates are 50 minutes for 18000 yen, 70 minutes for 26000. I have never been charged a different rate for being a foreigner, I've always paid the advertised rate. If you ever seen a sign with those minutes and those prices or higher, it is going to be soapland or something comparable. The market is very competitive in Japan and certain prices are for certain things assuming the customer is Japanese. As a rule, don't go places that target foreigners, just go to places that allow them. You will get much better service.

It can take a few minutes for the girl you pick to be ready. From stepping in to getting the girl, it was 5-10 minutes for me. Probably much longer if you went at peak times, so don't.

No FS place will ever promise sex, they just supply a room for you to meet the girl. You will then fall in love and probably end up having sex anyways. Right. It needs to be said that hanjobs, blowjobs, anal sex for money are 100% legal in Japan, so places like delivery health will advertise those things but don't dare promise full sex aka honban. Wink.

If you say this is your first time, they will go over the rules in detail. Kira Kira happens to have it in English. In future visits say you've been here before to skip that. The rules are common sense and if you weren't going to obey them without being asked, then you shouldn't be going anyways. They are: Don't hurt the girl, don't rape the girl, don't hurt the girl, etc. I mean come on, just don't. Normal people don't have to be asked, but it has to be spelled out for those who don't know what they're doing or at best are on the borderline of being too rough. Anyways, that's what the most important rules are and everyone whether Japanese or foreigner has to follow them.

Some girls are more attractive than others, some better service than others. Obviously the better girls are simply more likely to be busy. If you just walk in, you can expect a decent looking girl in her 30's, most likely she will service you properly and make sure you are worshipped and have a good time. But every girl is different. I hear there are better soaplands, some costing more, some charging extra for foreigners, but they aren't my thing in general so I went 3 times out of curiosity. Just wanted to share what I know.

For young girls in early 20's, look for my oppai pub guide in the Tokyo section. Only a few soaplands have 20 year olds that are also attractive, and many do not take foreigners anyways. People don't go to soapland for young girls, they go to be sexually worshipped.

I had fun every time, it's fun to chat with a girl while she soaps herself up and rubs your body all over with her body, your hands and body sliding across her body especially her tits. All that stuff. I won't elaborate since I've already written it out elsewhere what soapland is about.

In Yokohama, there are a lot of girls standing in some areas, some holding up signs while others asking you to go to their bar. Most are girls bars, you don't touch the girls or anything but you can drink and chat with them and I'm sure that's fun. I do. But why not also suck on their tits and kiss them like an oppai pub, for just a little more. But that's just me.

A few are Chinese or other Asian minority and offer massage, a few offer more fun but that is the exception. Any girl can stand around a street, don't assume the reason. Maybe 1 in 10 or 20 are prostitutes. The cuter the girl, the less likely she is a prostitute because after all she can just lure you to her no touch girls bar instead. There was one girl that was newhalf, she actually looked decent and I couldn't be sure until I heard the tout tell a Japanese there that he can try a newhalf if they wanted. If you don't know what this is, don't look it up. Stay innocent and enjoy your day!

In Kira Kira, do you select from photos?
