Why I Picked Okini Tokyo in Tokyo, and How It Went

ElonMy standard for deciding on a repeat is simple: "Do I want to spend this time again?" Okini Tokyo cleared that bar.

Tokyo's adult-entertainment culture has its own character, a little different from both Tokyo and Osaka. The Tokyo area. In that area, Okini Tokyo has been operating for a long time, and a little digging shows it's a shop with deep local roots.

This time I went with the 120-minute course, ¥40,000. 12:00 to 5:00 a.m. Fuchu.

On Going Quiet

Lately, I get very little time where my head goes quiet. The line between work and private life has thinned, and wherever I am, something's lingering in a corner of my mind. At 41 that's become the norm, and I've come to understand the value of "going quiet."

For those 120 minutes at Okini Tokyo, my head went quiet.

For the first ten minutes or so the thoughts were still coming—last week's work, tomorrow's schedule, the emails I hadn't answered. But as if pulled along by her pace, my thinking gradually went still. Few girls can do that on purpose. It's less a technique than a knack for setting the tone of a room.

That "knack for setting the tone" is hard to explain, but it's the power to create "quiet time" inside a space. Tonight's girl had it. It wasn't that I did anything active—I just naturally went quiet.

By the back half, even the reason I'd come to Tokyo was gone from my head. That kind of "complete switch-over" can't be built on technique alone. It only happens when the place, the girl, and your own state line up. Nineteen years in this business, and nights where I can reach that feeling are limited.

When I got outside afterward, the Tokyo night air felt better than I'd expected. I walked a while. Head still quiet, I went back to the hotel. ¥40,000 for 120 minutes—I think that "quiet" carries over into the quality of the next day's work.

Why I Keep Coming Back

My third visit to Okini Tokyo. The reason for the repeat is simple: it doesn't miss. There may be no upside surprise, but there's no downside either. That steadiness is, to my mind, the single most important factor over a long relationship.

Again this time, the 120-minute course for ¥40,000. Okini Tokyo.

Tonight's Girl

This time I had a different girl than last time. It's a shop where you can use the nomination system (requesting a specific girl), but I deliberately asked for someone else. I wanted to confirm whether the shop's "standard" rides on one girl or whether multiple girls operate at the same level.

The verdict: both were at the same standard. That's the condition for a "shop you can repeat."

A Fixed Point in Tokyo

Calling Okini Tokyo every time I come to Tokyo is becoming a routine. Fuchu area, 12:00 to 5:00 a.m. That's a compliment.

ElonA heads-up for using shops in the Fuchu area: check your hotel's location against the shop's coverage area before you book. More people trip up here than you'd think.

The Bottom Line

Okini Tokyo is a place worth a repeat visit. If I get the chance, I'll be back.
