I have lived in Japan for 11 years now and this culture has always fascinated me, it is such a gray area of society. Something Japanese people acknowledge yet never talk about, it is something that many foreigners are very curious about. It is expensive to go to a host club (even with first time discounts sometimes!) however, for some people it doesn't matter because the offer of companionship is worth it. I can understand this, it can get quite isolating especially when you don't exactly fit in, feel comfortable with yourself, or just want to find a little piece of love. There are many kind of hosts, some like this one running away and trying to make a life, while others chase the luxury lifestyle in hopes they'll hit it big. But Hosts also work under a time limit because as they get older, it can get harder to compete. Not everyone gets to be Roland. I wonder... what do hosts do after they "retire?" If we could get a documentary about that, it would be interesting. Is there a group that helps these people transition to other jobs?
this may not help, but i found one ex-host's book on amazon, he got into doing seminars and conversations on economics, selling charisma tips etc... based off his story, it seems some may be able to get into various areas due to their skills in fashion, business and being a charismatic personality. some sell books too.
This is a sad story,very well presented and told though. I can't imagine the pains both the hosts and their clients go through mentally and my question in the end is to what gain eventually? Especially as the main character tells us,it's mostly all an illusion. Very sad .
A great 75 min documentary called “the great happiness space” does a good job touching on that from both the perspective of the host and the guest - it’s actually how I came across this video.. ruclips.net/video/tiKWvgxLYe0/видео.html
I watche dhalf a minute and got the goosebumps. As you said, it is really really well made. Nice shots, the overlay vioce, it all makes a thick atmosphere. Great!
@@user-ur8zb9xp7l Around 5:02, the top two hosts were getting announced. Since the guy we followed during this documentary is not among them, he most likely makes very little money in comparison. Unfortunately, only the ones who make it big get paid well; it's a business after all.
yes very nice.. to get women that pay you.. as a man... very nice .. if they cant pay you put them to be escorts, what if your sister was one of them? please use your brain@@TeaApriliani
@@TeaAprilianibut the very saddening part is that they feed upon their female clients, usually emotionally manipulating them to let them believe that they are the true loves and fish out the money. Reportedly these girls are no rich girls and often with life problems, and they enter prostitution just for these “lonely” dudes sometimes through their connections
This story was deeply impactful, really sad hearing his backstory of being kicked out for being trans and then working as host. But hearing that hosts are like mickey mouse selling a fake love fantasy to many clients who also have adult industry work was very direct, i appreciate this
i am in Kabukicho as a photographer with clients 4-5 times a week for several years.. this is the real Tokyo most tourists and casual japan observers have no idea about...well done.. 15 minutes and really strong impression. Also love the camera work.
What an interesting person. And what a sad story, especially towards the end. I hope he finds peace and closure about how experiences. I'm a trans man, and currently navigating the relationship with my mom, who prefers to ignore that aspect of me. So that unexpectedly resonated a lot as well. Hope he's doing better a year later. Hang in there!
Yeah your mom is deeply disappointed that her daughter is mentally ill and ruining her body and life for an impossible lie. Too bad you can’t see sense and stop this insanity before you completely ruin your life but delusions are strong with y’all I guess. I hope your mother has other children that aren’t disappointing, bless her heart. I can’t imagine her pain. Oh YWNBAM 👍🏻😁 and have a great day!
This was enlightening. Heart wrenching…this situation reminds me of a group of desolate hearts yearning for genuine love and enriching and fulfilling human connections.
It's sad that most of the clients are prostitutes. But I guess they just want the connection without the stress of a real relationship. And because of their jobs they aren't judged as much by the hosts. Really great short documentary I wish it was longer
Actually most of the girls who go there do not start working in prostitution until they go to the host club. They are then introduced to sex work by friends or even the host himself. In most cases, they truly believe that they have a real relationship with the host and want to get married. This isn't a small issue in Japan, but it appears to be one that is swept under the rug. It's said that 5% of young women in their 20s now have had experience in prostitution in Japan.
I highly recommend you watch "The Great Happiness Space: Tale of an Osaka Love Thief". It's a 2006 documentary about host clubs and it's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen.
you're right but mostly they decide to work as a prostitute after they started to go to the host club because the man in the host club forcece the girls to do so, due to the system that most of that clubs allows the custemer to pay afterward. They ended up working as a prostitute since they can not afford pay and thats the only option they can get to cover up the payment. You can observe those people standing on the street in Tokyo everyday.
@@jamesmc369 Where exactly is "it said" that 5% of women in their 20s have had experience in prostitution in Japan. What exactly does "have had experience" mean? Does it mean being approached by a tout in Shinjuku? 5% seems high. Does it include foreign women in Japan on "entertainment" visas?
@@gordonbgraham I can't remember the name of the study, but it's one of the few that has actually tried to measure it. It looked at prostitution amongst young adults across a number of different countries, and excluded things like hostess work etc. It found 1 in 20 women in Japan had worked in prostitution at some point in their lives. 5% is incredibly high, given that the number for European countries was less than 2% I've lived in Japan though, and anecdotally nearly everyone knows someone involved in the industry. I mean, there are literally vans that advertise for workers blaring cutesy music in busy areas of Tokyo
I relate to him in that way, changing yourself to please others because it is easier than changing them or dealing with their reactions. Eventually it becomes too hard to live like that though
His girlfriend committed suici*e , 16 weeks later he already groomed and is exploiting another young woman . To say into a camera that he feels like at the moment he's making the two of them happy is wrong on so many levels . This young man is not OK.
Yeah, especially if you know how this Host thing works in most of the times. It’s way darker than what’s portrayed here. The story only scratches the surface.
@danib3250 I know that it is based in all sorts of cultural issues and preys on loneliness and Japan's toxic work environment aswell as the Left Over Woman mentality that is destroying Japan economically and demographically at break speed .
I'm an avid fan of The Roland Show and this short doco is awesome in it's honesty and grittiness about the world of hosting re the good, the bad and the ugly as we say. Your English is great and I hope you have a strong pride community to support you too. Ganbarre ❤
Glad this vid came across. Thank you for sharing. Great docu. His English is very good! Haven't seen from this perspective b4. Glad he has a good life with gf❤. It is a hard life especially if your mom is not accepting you for who you are. ❤ There is a famous case where a manager of a hostess bar in love with a host and wanted all to herself and stabbed him. Glad he survived. He didn't want her to get the punishment which is so generous of him.
We need more such content from him. Ive been to Japan many times, and it’s sad to see so many lonely ppl in such a big city His English is amazingly good…perhaps he had a good start when he was young? I think he studied overseas as well
no fucking way, in 5:01 you see a host as number 1, he's one of my japanese friend kae san, we actually met while playing apex, dude is a chill dude with good income. If the host club shown in this video is ACQUA then that's 100% him. He told me that he's a host and he's very popular in the club, if he doesn't goes to the club he start to stream all day apex and valorant in twitch.
Buying love by spending money is an illusion, as the main character points out. In Japan, loneliness drives people to seek companionship, companionship is good in itself, but the host culture is based on physical attraction and nothing more. When physical attraction fades, what remains is called love. When two people genuinely love each other, they don't need to hold on tightly; instead, they trust each other and hold on loosely, knowing that when one needs the other, they'll be there. Love a person when they are at their lowest, not just when everything is going well. But we humans are drawn to illusions, chasing something that doesn't exist, only to feel sad when we don't obtain it-because it was never there to begin with. May God bless us all with wisdom.
this was so interesting to watch and it was so suprising for me that he is a transgender i wish him all the best he sounds super nice and his english is prettyy good
Do the girls and his girlfriends know that he's transgender? He didn't address this at all. It's also extremely heart breaking that his family kicked him out because he's transgender.
I highly doubt it. Japan is not necessarily accepting of LGBT people, let alone trans people. They don't have legal protections. You cannot stand out or else you'll get ostracized.
Given how badly that would affect his sales... I very seriously doubt they know, them or any of his clients. The women going to host clubs are going to be woo'ed by born men, a fantasy, and to shatter that fantasy would destroy any revenue value they had so no I wouldn't think so. Host work for a transman seems a very ill advised choice given the client base. One also has to wonder if discovering the truth, the debt, knowing that her boyfriend was a host who would never leave their job and marry her for real and the sex work to afford to be with the person she loved (since the fantasy of it is what they are selling) for someone who lied to her not once but twice in deeply betraying ways were not contributing factors in his ex's suicide.
Very interesting video. Didn’t know the clientele were mostly prostitutes. I’m an American living in New York City, and my new roommate happens to be a hostess. She comes home in the early morning hours and sometimes gets sick from drinking too much sake. It’s sad that because she’s a student here from Japan, and this is the only kind of job she could get.
this is so cruel from a mother. I love my daughters but if they feel as a man, I would never put a pain on them just to feel good while they are in suffer. No, you must not change for anybody! ❤
Ive been to korea and japan. In these clubs scenes the happy people are sad and the user becomes the used a cannibalistic environment unless you follow your own path.
i think remember hearing somewhere that more often than not, when strippers get rented out for a private session, nothing sexual actually happens cause most clients are just really sad and lost guys that have nobody to talk to. this video is a reminder the roles can still easily be switched and it happens just as equally. pretty damn sad for both sides, and itd definitely be sad knowing the sad backgrounds of those women as the host
He just looks like he needs a good scrub and 48hrs of sleep. I just we all look sensational to one another when we're drunk. He sounds quite intelligent.
There's a lack of workers in Japan but education is expensive, pays are low and working environment is harsh so lots of young people end up wasting their life on this crap instead. So sad.
The major problem with this host/hotess business is that its the CLIENTS that create this massive social issue. If the clients invested their money in creating their OWN business (start up/freelance, etc) with their own talents and abilities, they would invest in THEMSELVES instead of basically donating their cash to a host/hotess. It's just another form of drug since their self-worth is so low, they pay another person to give them FALSE feelings. Just so they can feel alive. I can't believe this type of business is even legal actually. It shouldn't!!
Wait, let me get this straight. You think people should build a business instead of sitting around drinking and smoking every day? Golly, why didn't they of that. Maybe because one IS PHRIKIN HARDER than the other.
@@Dayvit78japan is a broken society we have no problem in other countries, but Japan gave a weird culture that makes people just use escapism as a remedy
i hope he finds the confidence to stop talking to people who don't accept him for who he is, even his mother. chosen family can support him where she refuses
This job looks good but do the wrong ideas. As this guy good heart, not just money, night life is change the mental health principles and moral of life, is twisted everything.😢
Love can make people do crazy things. I guess his ex loved him so much and so deep that the jealousy of him entertaining other female clients was just killing her.
For being 15 minutes, this video is really impactful

I have lived in Japan for 11 years now and this culture has always fascinated me, it is such a gray area of society.

There is Kebakura around the world. Many keep on traveling. Look for jobs in farming or gambling. I guess many keep on isolating themselves.
I know this is off topic. But the cinematography on this video is amazing
