I bought a few rather interesting toys in Japan. All of these were picked up at Kiddyland in Omotesando and many can also be found up on-line at Strapya World.

Please watch “The Great Happiness Space: Tale of an Osaka Love Thief“. It’s a wonderful documentary about host boys in Osaka. It starts out kind of happy-go-lucky but spirals into a world of relative sadness as it turns out that most of the women customers of Stylish Club Ryakko are themselves hostesses and sex workers who need to buy the affections of host boys over thousand dollar champagne calls since their own attempts at normal relationships have gone the dysfuntional route.
