Chapter 5
"Host club guys"

Sakamoto: Are you interested in host clubs?

Yuyama: I've been there! It was my first time playing around with interviews, but the initial impressions were all stupid! I mean, the story does not develop at all.

Sakamoto: Ah, I'm not smart (laughs).

Yuyama: How much pleases me! Although I went with the expectation, I couldn't talk well. After a while, next to my favorite Toyoetsu(*1) The man of the line came. Then, due to my personality, "I have to make this place even more exciting!" I was laughing and thinking what to do, but other people gathered around me, wondering, "Why are you paying so hard?" Then suddenly, Toyoetsu, who had been unresponsive until now, laughed with a really cute smile, "Ahahaha." What I thought at that moment was, "Let's come again!" (laughs).

Sakamoto: That made me happy. Feel the pleasure in strange places (laughs).

Yuyama: Speaking to a man I know, the club in Ginza has similar points, and instead of being serviced, it's fun to play "Attract Takamine's flowers." It's a trick.

(*1) Japanese actor, Toshikawa Etsushi.
In the TV dramas "NIGHT HEAD" and "I love you" that appeared in the 90's, he gained a lot of female fans for his shadowy acting.

Sakamoto: The hostess in Ginza seems smart too. Actually, an acquaintance had been hooked on the host, and it seems that he spent hundreds of thousands. Although she is a beautiful woman Why were you so addicted? I said, "It's too stupid to be interesting." It's so stupid that I'm fascinated.

Yuyama: I don't know. I'm coming, stupid man. In this world of efficiency, it is a valuable existence. It's almost like an art work.

Sakamoto: The idiot seems to be cute. Is that a kind of maternal instinct? I've never been there, but somehow those hosts don't feel like saying to a female customer, "I don't feel like ending up here!"

Yuyama: that's" Tora(*2) "right. It seems that there are various sayings of female murder in that work.

Sakamoto:Ruriko Asaoka(*3) I wonder if Tora-san would be sick of you, isn't it like that? She said, "I'm really stupid, so I think I'll be fine, so I'll go again."

Yuyama: Even if you're an idiot, you might say that you're honest and honest. I wonder if I got caught in that.

Sakamoto: At the host club a while back, it was kind of like a woman giving a cigarette a lighter, but now it's different.

(*2) The protagonist of Yoji Yamada's TV drama and movie series "Otoko wa Tsuraiyo".

Yuyama: The host club is a closer look at the classic relationship between men and women. That's why men don't service women, they're oleores. That's what I mean by "follow me" Tosa fishing(※Four) In a classical relationship like that, when a woman is in rough shape, she hits her hard and scolded, "You shouldn't be such a woman!".

Sakamoto: So that's it! You're scolded.

Yuyama: If a girl came and complained, "I hate you like that."

Sakamoto: It's like "Don't be a life idiot, stupid!" (laughs). Like "Gokusen".

Yuyama: Yes Yes. You bring in a classic relationship.

Sakamoto: I wonder why such things have become so thin in everyday life. In a sense, it's a play. In everyday life, I don't see it much anymore. You're not a young girl in front of the station, right? I used to do that when I was a student. If I had a bag, I would throw it all on the railroad track (laughs).

Yuyama: Mr. Sakamoto, there was such a time. Well, nowadays it may be girls who throw their bags and go wild.

(※Four) A comic by Yusuke Aoyagi. It was serialized in "Big Comic" from 1975 to 1986.
