Police raiding a soapland which advertised itself as providing “under-20s” after receiving a child prostitution tip found only old women, but arrested everyone anyway.
Kobe police acted on an anonymous tip-off telling them that a local “soapland” operating under the name of “PROUD” was employing minors.
After raiding the premises, they arrested the 43-year-old manager on charges of knowingly providing a booth for the purposes of allowing a 44-year-old woman to prostitute herself to a 43-year-old man. He admits the charges.
Although the establishment’s homepage promises that “all our girls are under 20,” police report finding only 5 female employees in their 30s and 40s at the premises.
Police also confiscated a list of the establishment’s employees and are investigating its business practices.
Japanese brothels are normally allowed to do business unmolested if they keep up a steady stream of “registration” fees to police whilst keeping out of trouble and ostensibly complying with whatever regulations police decide to impose on them.
“Soaplands,” so named because in the 1980s Turks became annoyed at them formerly being known as “Turkish baths,” penetrate loopholes in Japan’s pathetically erratically enforced anti-prostitution laws by only providing “non-penetrative” sexual services, typically involving inflatable mattresses and soap in a bathroom setting.
In 2010, a police whitepaper showed 1,238 soaplands were registered with police, and they are one of the more common and least disreputable of Japan’s vast hierarchy of brothel types.
There is a distinct lack of surprise amongst Japanese sex crime watchers:
“A story as hopeless as this is unusual…”
“This happens all the time.”
“So he saw the homepage, thought he could get with a girl in her twenties, went there and found only old hags, then reported them for employing minors, I see…”
“Well done!”
“Is there even a crime here?”
“They could change the charges from ‘child prostitution’ to ‘fraud.'”
“MILF-lovers might like this joint though.”
“That 43-year-old guy: ‘She’s the same age as me!'”
“Can’t you get your money back if they pull something like this?”
“Scary people will come out from inside the shop.”
“Revenge of a disgruntled customer.”
“The raid itself was the criminal act here.”
“If you’re going to arrest people, you should arrest those old whores as well.”
“The tipster was probably one of the police angry at being swindled.”
“Now can they do something about the covers of AVs?”
“If they can arrest them for this, then they can bust all soaplands, can’t they? Not that I’ve ever been to one or even care.”
“They just arrested the proprietor to save face, didn’t they?”
“A story with no downsides.”

I can see it now:
Manager: "Is their anyone special you'd like?"
20 Something: "N-no, t-this is m-my first time in one of t-these places."
Manager: Well, I've a nice high school girl for you. Just come this way."
They walk down a hallway and the manager opens a door.
Manager "Right in here."
20 something: "S-she's real p-pret... MOM!?!?!?!?"
Hmm...I'm not so sure it was much of a "under age" problem, more like a "we're not bribing the police enough to fuck off" problem to me.
Japanese police are business organization.
Who needs Yakuza if you have cops?
I wonder how "crime-free" Japan would be if you busted all the corrupt officers and politicians. Then again, the same could be said about any country... It's just exceptionally sad if you claim to be so "clean" and "orderly" as Japan does.
00:04 anon: Uh... nope. Most people in Japan think the cops are idiots. This is a generalization. I think you managed to generalize in the wrong direction, which is why statistics is a pretty tricky thing to wrap your head around.
I personally think the Japanese cops are great, the ones I've met anyway. That includes my wife's family, where half the male population are cops. People I've met, people my wife's met while growing up and living there, ...not so much.
its funny that none of you have probably ever lived in Japan and say all these things. Live there and you will hear that just about everyone likes their police. Police are relatively calm there and don't do a whole lot. If there was something like this to happen in america, it would be just about the same. oh wait I take that back. It would be worse.
Yeah that is not entirely true. And I said "not entirely" because of some incidents that happened while I was stationed in Yokosuka Naval Base. The police are indeed well respected and highly praised.
And, yes, them police personnel are pretty cool too, even doing bicycle stunts and all from time to time as well.
Good times... good times...
If those old ladies looked good enough to pull off being 20, what was the issue then?
What they expected:
Reimu, Nue, Marisa, Youmu, Alice, Wriggle, Suwako, Cirno
What they got:
Yukari, Byakuren, Mima, Yuyuko, Shinki, Yuuka, Kanako, Letty
And why would they complain again?
I would not complain about geting Yukari-sama.
The issue is Sankaku likes to create these threads for pageviews. What is there to even get upset about anymore? Japanese police is inept across the board. NEWS!
20+ years old ladies must be considered as fetus there..
Sound like Japan is getting a taste of Christian conservatism. When did Japanese give a shit about adults fucking?
Yeah, It's really sad.
Why are Japanese cops utterly retarded?
Maybe because they worship American police?
'That 43-year old guy: "She's the same age as me!"'
LMFAO.
Next year there will be a brothel for DEAD women. Expect the cops to arrest them anyway.
Necrophilia and desecrating corpses are crimes. Arrest those prostitutes and put 'em on ice!LOL
I personally like older women.
There is a lot to be said for mature and experienced women.
Ok which of you anons tipd them off!?
I don't find it difficult to believe that they could pass off a 44-year-old as under twenty. I have a Japanese friend who is nearly 80 and everyone thinks that she's 30-something. Must be genetic.
"All our girls are under 20" pounds of make-up.
Did you expect a hot college girl?
Too bad, only grannies here!
they were tipped off but then was embarrassed when they raided the place so they just went along the original plan to save face lololololololololololol
that's corruption for u.
It sounds like the best way to shut down these things if some overly moral bastard dislikes them is to do any combination of "Child prostitution", "statutory rape", etc.
A lot of dipshits in the world today immediately when they hear those terms have their brains slide out of their anus and go solely on gut feeling/dislike.
What people seem to not realise is that the so called registration fee that everyone thinks it to be a bribe, is properly recorded and submitted for review (through the Finance Ministry) so before anybody thinks that it is a bribe, it really is not.
They should be busted for false advertising.
under 20 could also mean 18 and 19, which is legal.
since they now protect women in their 50's, why not declare all females national treasures and keep them somewhere safe?
And arrest all men.
Wait... they're doing that right now every day, busting guys for being guys.
I wonder if after 50 years there won't be any Japanese ever.
Men in Japan should not be Fucking anyway, time for the race to go extinct. When did sex become such an issue in Japan? Shit sure has change since I was there in the mid 90's or is this just police having to make stuff up to not make the top boss look like a dumb ass.
Maybe next they will make sure women are hiding their faces just incase.
OK so from what I can see there are 2 possibilities here:
1. Whoever tipped the cops off must've bribed them if the cops are still gonna press charges.
2. The cops came for the MILFS.
44 and under aged? What were they comparing those women to? Then again if the pics on the wall of the room was real, it shouldn't be all that noticeable...
“They just arrested the proprietor to save face, didn’t they?”
lol seems so
more like over-age
F***G GERONTOPHILES!
Oh, dat MILF!
At first I thought the topic said one of the girl was only 14.... I guess I see it wrong...
nah...you saw what you wanted to see...
Reverse Pedophile??
I'm sure there's more to this. It's just funnier this way :P
False advertise much?
Good enough when you need to fuck. But you would not know that you just tend to use your hands a lot. ROFL
You expect better of a strip/brothel/ect. type place?
wut?
why?
What is this I don't even....
Wouldn't you expect them to "gild the lilly" a bit?
Advertising "Old bags inside" wouldn't get you much walk-in trade.
I loled so hard at this omg.
