What is a Soapland?
Definition and History
A Soapland is a type of establishment where customers can enjoy intimate services with a woman (often referred to as a Soap Girl) in a private room equipped with a bathtub and a bed. Historically referred to as Turkish baths, they are now commonly known as Soaplands.

1. High Expectation of Full-Service (Sex)
Term | Meaning |
---|---|
Honban (本番) | Sex |
Enban (円盤) | Additional fee for sex |

Unlike other types of adult entertainment, Soaplands operate under the premise of mutual consent and free love, making them unique for their high likelihood of full-service encounters.
2. Unique Pricing System

Sougaku (総額) | Total amount (bath fee + service fee) |
Nyuyokuryo (入浴料) | Bath fee (paid to the Soapland) |
Sabisu-ryo (サービス料) | Service fee (paid to the Soap Girl) |
Soaplands have a distinct pricing system that separates the bath fee and the service fee. The total cost is often not fully listed on price charts, and in some cases, the service fee is directly handed to the Soap Girl.

NS | No condom use |
NN | Bareback sex |
Kongo-ten (混合店) | Mixed (S着 and NS girls available) |
Soaplands are classified into S-chaku, NS, and mixed establishments. Identifying these categories can be tricky as they are often coded in terms like “NewSoap” or “NaturalSoap.”
