Host culture in Japan is so big now that apparently even pre-teens aspire to look like the hirsute Kabukicho drinkers-for-hire.
Ryuchalo is the son of a beauty blogger called Chiimelo (yes, the names are pretty wacky), and apparently he wanted to celebrate his 8th birthday as a host.
In fact, he even celebrated his birthday at a host club in Kabukicho, a notorious red-light district if you discount the recent partial gentrification (or should that be Godzillafication?).
Ryuchalo spent his big day in August at Superstar club, which is owned by Jin, a famous host.
He even got to try his hand at the champagne tower gimmick the hosts like to pour. It seems the young gentleman is acquiring a taste for champagne and the finer things in life.
Perhaps it’s a good thing that people in Japan are having fewer and fewer babies when this is the state of parenting in the country.
