The Most Chaotic "First Time in Japan" Story You'll Ever Hear

[@hoshi-15]

I can't tell what's funnier. The girls bar workers processing that Sydney brought her parents or Sydney brought her husband

[@VerdantSherwood]

Worker: *confused john travolta*

[@zzlai6235]

Imagine the worker seeing a foreigner girl walking up and speaking Japanese, then bringing over 4 older foreigners, and 1 Asian that looks like a mafia boss.

This sounds like a really good idea but advertising this stuff on the internet will undoubtedly attract creeps that will then ruin the experience for everybody else. Sometimes the hole in the wall is good b/c it is relatively obscure.

[@GL-GildedLining]

This gives me a different view of the girls bar situation. I had compartmentalized it as pure post-yakuza grift to prey on lonely alcoholic men, but the idea of parlaying it into thirty bucks to get an hour of tipsy Japanese conversation practice with ADHD girls is weirdly reasonable. Pity I don't drink, though. Oh well!

[@manuelsilva6244]

You are exactly right. That is the objective. You can have a "good" experience but never forget what they are.

[@RobespierreThePoof]

Well ... Yeah. Language immersion is a superior technique for language learning. Though, you'll need way more than 30 minutes and you still should couple it with instruction on grammar and studying vocabulary / grammar. It doesn't have to be a girl's bar though. I mean ... That's going to get expensive.

[@r3cy]

I ended up homeless for a while the first time I went to Japan. Was in a long term relationship with a japanese woman, and travelled to meet her family in Chiba, before that happened we stayed a few nights in a hotel in the Shiodome disctrict of Tokyo. Ended up having a massive argument over something dumb and we split up. Problem was my flight home wasn't for another week, and the hotel was booked only for another day. Was young and poor at the time, so just ended up wandering around on the streets for 5 days (which suited my overly dramatic frame of mind at the time). Tokyo is not a great place to be if you don't really speak any Japanese, don't know anyone, and don't have money. Hilarious early 20's drama in hindsight.

[@SaberToothPortilla]

Honestly, comparing it to a strip club catches the "spirit" of it a bit more I think, or at least sets up the analog. I mean, it's something that doesn't really exist in, say, the states, but it does say something about the culture. Like, it's a whole thing there because, for whatever reason, people *want* that, in the same way that people might want people stripping in front of them. It's a still a *little* bit surprising, most places if you want a conversation you can usually manage at a regular bar if you aren't *too* awkward/anxious, but I guess JP is just built different.

[@demonic_myst4503]

not really its closer to hiribg a actual escort (escorts are not prostitutes ) you pay for their time thats literaly what a actual escort does u pay them to keep u compony often to go out to deink with or to dinner if u lonely acept this has a bar included in the deal

One question, why did they call it a girls bar and not a hostess club?

[@franktheman7417]

Hostess club is a common translation for "Kyabakura" (short for "cabaret club"). Kyabakuras are similar to girls bars, but as the boys said, they're closer to the one-on-one overtly flirtatious experience you'd find at a host club

[@timlerch7425]

Kyabakuras (cabaret clubs) are what you'd usually refer to as hostess clubs in English. The boys talk a bit about the differnce at 9:44

[@Anya-ef3sb]

Y’all it’s like those male ikemen host bars but instead it’s women who host so this most likely geared towards men. Edit: Nvm they explained it
