If you are going to Tokyo/Kanto area anyway, I’d just go to a soapland there. There’s a reason there aren’t a lot soapland reviews in Hokkaido, coz P4P there is the shits. You’ll get turned down a lot. And the ones that would take you, will give you landmines, which is even worse than getting rejected coz they get your money and you’re stuck with an undesirable girl.

The area I'm trying to monger at is Hokkaido, not Tokyo. 99% of the reviews here have gaijin tax and even an extra first time gaijin tax just to fuck with people. The only one I could find was for an esute, so probably better for me to just quit and enjoy Sapporo ramen

I went today to the shop and the prices have gone up slightly, not by much but 75 mins is now 38k and 90 mins is 48k iirc.
Not sure if it was because the mama-san was at the shop but got told by the tencho that I would have no choice of the girl. Did not like the sound of that so I walked.
No guarantee they would do be right, after all what is a 1 time visit by a foreigner to them.

> So it wasn’t the price, but not being able to choose the girl was the deal breaker…

Not saying I was happy with the inflated price but comparatively in Sapporo the Gaijin tax is usually 10k, sometimes more, it is the reality of punting in this region is what I found out.
And yes, not being able to choose the girl was the deal breaker, whats the point of paying all that money and not getting you own choice hahahahaha.

I'm regularly in Hakodate, and if there are soaplands there then they're few and far between and definitely NOT gaijin-friendly. Honestly, do not waste your time trying to locate P4P in Hakodate. I might've suggested your best bet was to try picking up some Chinese tourist somewhere for some vacay-hump but then there would have to be some sort of lively bar or club to facilitate this and there is no such thing in Hakodate. Rub one out in your hotel room, go out and stuff your fucking face full of king crab and Sapporo Classic and then get the fuck out of there and go back to Tokyo.

Sapporo has slightly more options but still isn't anything to look forward to. Last I heard, and this is from several years ago, there is one SL that may or may not allow foreigners in, in the Susukino area, but all accounts here are that the women are all old, ugly and/or fat and the entire experience is depressing. As far as I can tell, your best bet--IF you can speak Japanese decently--would be to try your luck at the rub-n-tug joints in the City Boys/Girls towers, and even then it's a gamble. Girls aren't always the hottest and most joints are predictably not very welcoming to foreigners but you can always try. I've had some interesting times in those towers, but then again I look and speak decent Japanese.

Sapporo is almost as boring as Hakodate, but also has the greatest miso ramen joints I've ever experienced in my life. There's also the Sapporo museum, which has some fucking amazing beers you can only get in Sapporo and usually only at the museum. If I ever make my way back up there again, my priorities would be to hit the phenomenal ramen joints in Susukino (none of that "ramen alley" tourist bullshit) at lunch, get in a nice bath at my hotel onsen and then saunter over to the Sapporo Beer museum to the tasting room/bar to get plastered. Lots of stupid drunk tourists, lots of opportunities to try picking up ass. It's a long walk from the museum back to town, around a half hour if I remember correctly. More than enough time to talk your way into the panties of some drunk Chinese tourist girl you met at the museum bar.

When you think of Hokkaido, you shouldn't think of P4P or sex in general. The girls are boring, have odd bodies and no personalities and there's so much good food to eat. Priorities, priorities.
