The end of the world is really coming! Japan significantly amends the "Public Morals Law" as Roland urgently convenes a meeting to discuss response measures.
Tomorrow is the end of the world, are you ready? The Japanese manga "The Future I Saw" (私が見た未来) predicts that a severe earthquake and tsunami will occur on July 5, 2025. This has been widely circulated on social media and the internet, causing many tourists from Hong Kong and Taiwan to cancel their trips to Japan, impacting the Japanese tourism industry and airlines. The doomsday theory should just be treated as an urban legend; however, recent news reported extensively by Japanese media may shake Japan's underground GDP? The Japanese government has announced significant amendments to the entertainment laws, hoping to eradicate the chaos of Pig-butchering scams and romance fraud. The reason is that more and more young women are being deceived by bull boys and burdened with huge debts, even resorting to selling themselves to earn money to pay off their debts. Japanese law enforcement authorities have finally decided to take action. Many advertisements for male hosts in Shinjuku's Kabukicho have disappeared, and Japan's top bull boy, Roland, has released a video announcing emergency response measures. He believes that Japan's new policies will affect the business of more than 300 host clubs in Japan. What is going on? The following is a comprehensive report.
Apocalyptic prophecies affect tourism trends, with a significant number of tourists canceling their trips.
The book "The Future I See" predicts a devastating earthquake and tsunami will occur on July 5, 2025. Many tourists from Taiwan and Hong Kong are canceling their trips to Japan, and although the scientific community has not recognized this prediction, the panic on the internet is still having a significant impact on Japan's tourism industry.
Travel platforms and airlines have indicated that there has been a significant wave of cancellations this week, particularly with hotel booking rates plummeting in Tokyo and the eastern Japan region. The industry is concerned that if the rumors continue to escalate, it will pose a major challenge to this summer's tourist peak season.
New regulations for the Kabukicho entertainment district: All misleading terms in male escort advertisements have been completely removed.
At the same time, the Japanese government announced the official implementation of the "Amusement and Entertainment Law" amendment on June 28, strengthening regulations on the sex industry, particularly targeting the male escort industry, which is known for its "love business."
In Tokyo's Shinjuku Kabukicho, the male host club signboards that were originally filled with exaggerated advertising slogans have been covered with white paper, tape, and black paint, and the familiar phrases such as "sales champion," "breakthrough of 100 million yen," and "popularity king" have completely disappeared.
New regulations prohibit emphasizing rankings, revenue figures, or exaggerating titles like deliberately giving a general manager title to male hosts, making women think they are dating the president. The police department pointed out that such misleading advertising terminology fosters blind consumption among customers and even involves fraud and coercive behavior, thus classified as illegal. In addition, male hosts are also prohibited from asking women to donate or open champagne on social media.
Japan reorganizes the male escort industry, building a firewall for women.
The amendment to Japan's "Entertainment and Amusement Tax Act" has officially come into effect, and the male host industry, which operates under the guise of "romantic love," is the first to be affected. Roland, who is hailed as "Japan's number one bull," quickly released a video and urgently convened a meeting to instruct his male hosts on strategies after the new law was implemented.
Multiple public relations representatives expressed concerns about the new law during media interviews, especially regarding the marketing methods such as "performance rankings" that they previously relied on for interacting with customers, which will be severely restricted, impacting hotel revenue.
Observers of the entertainment industry point out that the new law will inevitably change the operational model of the entire entertainment industry in Japan. Currently, the operators in Kabukicho are in a state of chaotic observation, and in the short term, their performance is likely to decline significantly, leading to a wave of business closures, forcing the industry to rethink ways to attract customers and marketing strategies.
The new law explicitly states that it is strictly prohibited to entice women into prostitution or the sex service industry under the guise of "job introduction". Violators may face up to six months of imprisonment or a fine of up to 1 million yen. The Japanese government's stringent crackdown on love scams is seen as an active effort to address the long-standing chaos in the sex industry, highlighting a shift in Japanese society's perspective towards not ignoring women's rights. It clearly aims to protect women from exploitation through regulations, creating a stronger defense for them so they are no longer easily deceived by sweet words and fall into the trap of "losing both money and resources".
