The “Erotic Tower” in Akihabara has become a “very popular spot” among foreign tourists!

But why would tourists from overseas come all the way to Japan to visit a building that sells adult goods? An American man in his late twenties who interviewed us in front of the store told us the story, laughing the whole time.

He was laughing the whole time he was talking to us. It’s crazy and awesome. It is strange and interesting that there is a building like this in the city, in the center of a big city. What’s more, it’s amazing that no one in Japan cares about it.

In the U.S., it seems that it is rare to find such an adult goods specialty store in the middle of a city, and they are basically located on the outskirts of town or on streets where people don’t pass by.

In the U.S., there are considerable differences from state to state, but the man who gave us this interview also told us that in his hometown, adult goods can only be purchased by mail order or at special stores such as SM specialty stores.

What about other tourists? When I approached him in front of the store, a French man agreed to be interviewed. He himself was not planning to buy anything in particular, but was visiting M’s as a tourist like the aforementioned man.

I know TENGA, but it wasn’t until I came to Japan that I recognized it as a Japanese company. Is it famous in France?　I think it has a high level of recognition. It’s very interesting that they have so many of these on display.”

TENGA is an adult product that is well known even overseas, and this man seemed surprised that Don Quijote had an adult goods section in addition to M’s. “In Japan, TENGA is not considered an adult product,” he said.

I was surprised to see TENGA in the adult goods section of Don Quijote in addition to M’s. “In Japan, adult goods and regular goods are sold on the same floor, and I felt that people are very tolerant about sex. I think I will buy some as souvenirs.”

It must be a strange sight for people from overseas to see so many adult products being sold in the middle of the street without any hesitation. Why don’t you visit M’s to see the strange situation in which a building selling adult goods stands proudly in the middle of the city, even though convenience stores no longer carry 18-restricted books?
