<p>Hearing that the monthly fan meeting of &#8220;Ayaman JAPAN&#8221; was being held at a karaoke box in Ginza, this magazine rushed to the venue. What we saw there was a party room in broad daylight, with women dancing around to the familiar phrase, and men who were completely overwhelmed by the intense groove, but still happy to be there.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>The parade of songs that could never be put into print, the &#8220;Ayaman roller coaster,&#8221; in which a man&#8217;s head is placed in her skirt using the space between her legs as a tunnel, and many other &#8220;wild tricks&#8221; were performed on the men in attendance. One of the male participants <span class="strongInContent">commented, &#8220;It was truly extraordinary!</span> 　 <span class="strongInContent">It&#8217;s just so</span> extraordinary! <span class="strongInContent">It really takes all the stress out of your life.</span> This magazine was simply overwhelmed by the intense groove.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>Even so, I was surprised to find that the event was quite different from what I had imagined, even though I had heard that it was a &#8220;fan meeting. Normally, it would be a mix of the celebrities and the overwhelming majority of fans, but there were six Ayaman Japan members and four male members. It was more like a &#8220;blind date&#8221; party.</p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead="Closeness is the essence of Ayaman JAPAN"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent">The only thing we can sell is our proximity (laughs). Ayaman Japan&#8221; was originally a group that specialized in making drinking parties more exciting. For a while, we tried to appear in the media, but there is still a distance between us and the people watching us on TV, and we can&#8217;t really interact with them. I was very jealous of that and felt depressed at times.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> But at off-line meetings like this, I think it is easier to express the true essence of &#8220;Ayaman JAPAN&#8221; because I can interact with everyone at a close distance. We have been holding off-line meetings for almost 10 years now, and to some extent the members who come to these meetings have already been selected, so I don&#8217;t think people really appreciate them that much (laughs).</span></p>
<p>(Laughs)&#8221; (Director Ayaman, same below) Even so, there was a time when only one fan showed up. As expected, he thought about quitting the off-line meeting when no one showed up, but it seems to have continued safely to the present day.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>Ayaman Japan&#8221; got its big break in 2010 with an appearance on &#8220;Tunnels no minasan no okagedeshita. The boom went downhill, and after the founding member Fantasista Sakurada left and a new member joined the group, &#8220;Ayaman Japan&#8221; suddenly became independent from its agency and established &#8220;Ayaman Japan Inc.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> At the time, I was running a members-only karaoke bar in Roppongi in parallel with my entertainment activities. I was worried about the future of &#8220;Ayaman Japan.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I had an opportunity to appear on &#8220;Ariyoshi Tansekai&#8221; at that time, and I complained, &#8220;I&#8217;m so tired these days,&#8221; with my black hair that looked completely different from when I used to appear on TV, and in a plain outfit. Then the performers and the comments on SNS encouraged me, saying that &#8220;Ayaman Japan should be energetic&#8221; and &#8220;I still want to see &#8216;Poi Poi Poi'&#8221;. I felt that I could still do what I was doing and that there was still a part of me that was still wanted.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> So I took a leap of faith and immediately set up my own company. Until then, we had belonged to an office, but originally &#8220;Ayaman JAPAN&#8221; was an activity that we had created on our own and had done on our own, so we decided to give it another shot on our own.</span></p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead="The &quot;100 Million Akeman Project&quot; launched"></div>
<p>Ten years have passed since then. He says he has been able to <span class="strongInContent">&#8220;manage to eat enough to eat&#8221; by</span> focusing mainly on sales. It seems that there is still strong support for his business, and he has even been invited to Singapore to conduct business there. In July of this year, &#8220;Ayaman Japan Inc.&#8221; celebrated its 10th anniversary. To mark this milestone, the company has launched the &#8220;100 Million Akeman Project. What kind of project is it?</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Araman says, &#8220;At Corona, we have seriously reduced our sales to zero. Recently, there have been a few jobs here and there, but after all, many things have changed since Corona, and I have not been able to revive them.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I feel that the number of drinking parties is decreasing in the world, and people are tired of being harassed and stressed. Because of this, I wonder if there are people in their 30&#8217;s to 50&#8217;s who know us and are looking for the same kind of vibe that Reiwa had back in the day.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Also, three of the regular members have recently given birth and become mothers, and now that they are full of power and need to raise their children with even more experience, I wanted to show that we are going to get everyone up and going again with our &#8220;akeman&#8221; power.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>As has been the case in the past, three regular members and about 50 youth members, a subordinate organization, are ready to &#8220;DDD&#8221; (anywhere, anyone, and everything) at any event. In addition, a new web page for sales and marketing has been established, and in addition to personal social networking sites, they will also be sending out information via LINE.</p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead="In this day and age, the bottom line is ......"></div>
<p>However, in this age of Reiwa, the Showa and Heisei style of &#8220;Ayaman Japan&#8221; seems to be facing many headwinds. In fact, the &#8220;Ayaman roller coaster&#8221; was once pointed out on SNS as &#8220;sexual harassment. In fact, the &#8220;Ayaman roller coaster&#8221; was once pointed out on social networking sites as &#8220;sexual harassment. Now that she has become a mother, it may be difficult for her to use the same kind of undertones as in the past. &#8230;&#8230;</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I have always been very careful not to make people feel uncomfortable. In this respect, I have been struggling for 10 years now, but I feel that there is a point in continuing to do this.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I have been doing a story using a loincloth with &#8220;Safety Day&#8221; written on it for years, but it used to end with &#8220;It&#8217;s a safety day, so it&#8217;s okay. But recently, after I say, &#8220;It&#8217;s a safe day, so don&#8217;t worry,&#8221; I add, &#8220;But men, there is no such thing as a safe day for girls, so please use contraception at all times. On the contrary, saying that sometimes brings another round of laughter.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Also, many of the sales events we are called to are closed venues. So I say to them, &#8216;Please be excited today without worrying about anything else,&#8217; which in turn makes the place more lively.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>In addition, the &#8220;Ayaman roller coaster&#8221; also asks for permission from the men who are going to &#8220;ride&#8221; the roller coaster in advance. Director Ayaman says that while updating the show to keep up with the times, &#8220;Ayaman JAPAN&#8221; hopes to continue with its current style of entertainment to cheer up men in their 30s to 50s who are tired of being harassed.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> He said, &#8220;If you want to enliven various places, please call &#8220;Ayaman Japan. We will liven up various places ♡&#8221;</span></p>
