Oiran chirashi3/28/2023 ![]() It’s just a fascination I have, I suppose. As has been discussed here before, I am almost always up for any story involving sex workers. Your mileage may vary due to passing interest in sex work. In which case, I would recommend it, I think? However, I suspect 90% of you might find it to be your sort of thing. I have no idea if it was sexy, I kind of boggled at a lot of it, honestly. This is labeled as ‘smut’ on many sites, so the sex was fairly graphic, although more “R” rated, than “X.” We got a lot of her boobs and a lot of positioning from him, but none of his salient bits. I ended up enjoying the story, but I am still fairly traumatized by the straight sex. Hairdresser! The story ends with them happily-ever-aftering in the now. Turns out, Shouhei was from four years earlier and he’d been searching for her this whole time. So, thinking on this, she decides to reply now that she has a signal again. She was able to open it and there were kind words of encouragement. While she was back in the Edo period, however, her phone had picked up a message from our time. where Haru realizes she never ask Shouhei his surname. Then, they have to try to leap out a high window to make their escape… the act of near-death falling propels them back into the now…. ![]() But, HOW they’re going to accomplish this remains unclear until the establishment is on fire. When she confronts him, they make plans to try to escape back to their own time together. At one point, while they end up in the bath together, Haru discovers that Shouhei has a modern watch. Through out all of this, Haru and Shouhei find secret times to be together and get it on. As the madam explains to a guy looking for rough trade(bondage, etc.), this is for playing a marriage only (which, I mean, excuse me, some people’s marriages do include BDSM, but okay, whatever.) While she can’t refuse any customers, she can refuse certain acts. This being a smut, a large portion of the plot revolves around Haru adjusting to life as an orian. He’s surprisingly gentle and Haru falls for him. We all do.” To be far to Haru at this point, she’s seen how hard core the madam can be and there don’t seem to be a lot of options.īut, she likes Shouhei, so the next time they’re alone, she asks him if he will be her first. He’s really sympathetic, but says, “Yeah, well, you have to do what you have to do to survive. ![]() Haru ends up panickly confessing to Shouhei that she isn’t ready to be a prostitute because she’s a virgin. Yeah, I thought he’d be gay, too, but it turns out not only is he straight–which is only one of a number of unbelievable surprises about him. She runs into a very helpful guy, Shouhei, who turns her into the madam of a house he’s associated with as the hair dresser. Her accident catapults her back in time, specifically to the Edo period’s Toguwara Shogunate’s Yoshiwara District–which was basically a state sponsored red light district. So, the heroine of this manga, Hanamori Haru, is an ordinary office lady, until one day she is hit by a bus. I mean, I sort of get the connection–it’s a near death experience, and we all agree in whatever culture that being at the doorway between life and death is a very magical space.Įven so, I find this… an odd conceit? But, once you know this is just a thing, it’s easy enough to roll with. Honestly, if you get hit by a bus in Japan, you can also travel through time. There doesn’t have to be anything magical about the steps, you just have to seriously injure yourself. It’s like you’re just walking down an ordinary stairs, trip, and end up in the past. This is the first time I’ve read straight smut and I really don’t even know how to feel.īut, okay, I picked up Oiran Chirashi / Scattered Courtesan because I was looking through a list of manga that featured oiran, and this was the first one that someone had scanlated.Īpparently, it’s pretty common in Japanese fantasy to literally fall into another world. ![]()
