I just happened to pop into Studio SIX the other Saturday night (to attend the weekly Kinbaku Live, to be exact), and was treated to a nice performance by Osada Steve with tiger-tattooed aiko-chan.
Towards the end of the four-hour marathon session, Osada Steve placed the model on a sake barrel and tied her in a restrictive teppo shibari Read more »

This is the third and last in a series of a female’s perspective who again finds herself at the receiving end of attention. To stay with the theme, it could be headlined “Third Encounter of His Kindliness”, but I resist.

Before we get to fairy’s juicy report, a bit of philosophical observation seems in order: It appears that her accounts are mainly hitting the sweet spot of our female readers. It is them who can vicariously empathize with our heroine, can identify with her as she continues her journey of “beauty in suffering”.

Us guys, on the other hand, who are mainly seeing things from the top, are often preoccupied with humping and pumping, and are less inclined to “listen” into what is going on between the ears of the sub(ject). Provided, of course, you are one of them tough and super hard Doms like me.

Come to think of it, it is my biggest fear to appear soft, or worse, to eventually flip over to the other side. I have been battling this fear for years now. I’m even having nightmares about this. I can tell you, ladies, it’s a tough gig to keep the Mr Tough Guy image up. It’s a struggle.

This interview with Shibari grandmaster Nureki Chimuo dates back to 2006, when Osada Steve took international video artist Hito Steyerl on a Tokyo tour for her video installation Lovey Andrea at the Documenta 2007.

Nureki Chimuo is also featured in the recently released Bakushi movie together with grandmaster Yukimura Haruki.

Rope is what the doctor ordered

Just as maverick photographer Nobuyoshi Araki claims to have been born with a lens on his nose, veteran Kinbaku grandmaster Nureki Chimuo too has an interesting story to tell: “I did my first bondage tying up the nurse with my umbilical cord,” he reveals. It’s only natural that geniuses get started early in life. Neither Araki nor Nureki, so it seems, chose their craft. Rather, their craft chose them.

Having tied about 4,500 women to date, Nureki is by a wide margin Read more »

A few days after her first encounter with Osada Steve, the girl was taken to Studio SIX.
As with her first report this was written within 12 hours of the encounter…

Another exhausting time on our last day in Tokyo. The streets were crowded with people rushing to their destination, signboards of various shapes and sizes were flashing away to color up the buildings… and we were hotel-less.

There I was, sitting in the hotel lobby flipping through a directory with Master as we called up Read more »

This time we are bringing you a special report sent in by a lady fan. So instead of giving you the usual fare as seen from the top, we are treating you to a female’s perspective, as she shares her thoughts and feelings at the receiving end of Osada Steve’s kindness.
This is the first of two reports of bondage sessions with Osada Steve. This encounter took place at Roppongi Jail, the second, at Studio SIX.

Grandmaster Osada Eikichi (March 15, 1925 to September 12, 2001) passed away seven years ago on September 12, 2001. Technically speaking, with Japan being the Land of the Rising Sun, this coincides with 9-11, at least for our North American fans, making it a date easy to remember.

Dubbed the Flying Rope Man by the Tokyo Journal in 1999, the legendary Osada Eikichi is generally recognized as the fastest rope artist ever.

Here’s a short interview with Osada Steve about his sensei.

Little did I know that my cushy job at Osada Pro(ductions) would entail my training as a party lion.

Looks like there is an anniversary, feast or celebration going on over here almost everyday. Firstly, with approx. 50 kinky sites under the Osada Steve penumbra, there are the website anniversaries. Fifty a year, to be exact – though these aren’t spread evenly about, so at certain times you run into a whole cluster of those.

Then there are the record-breakers. Like reaching a milestone, or something. These could happen any moment, like the other day when Steve noticed that SMCash (that’s our affiliate program) had broken yet another $ ten thou threshold in cash payouts Read more »

Before cutting to the chase, allow me to introduce myself as the new editor for this fan site (or fan blog, if you will). I go by the name of TieBreaker. Before you start speculating how I became known by that handle, let me assure you it has nothing to do with sub poaching. In fact, before I could start my cushy job at the editor’s desk I had to promise not to poach any of Osada Steve’s models . . . though, between you and me, I think an occasional defection wouldn’t exactly cause his harem to collapse. (Mental note to self: Gotta find out one day how Steve manages his flock, then post it here under “Secrets Revealed”.)

Among the legendary exploits of machi bugyo of Edo, the greatest of them all perhaps was Ooka Echizen (1677-1751). His full title was Ooka Tadasuke, Echizen no Kami. Born in 1677, he began his career at age 35 as an obscure magistrate. His abilities caught the eye of Tokugawa Yoshimune, the reform-minded Shogun, and in 1717, he was promoted to machi bugyo of Edo’s southern court, where he presided until 1736, making him the third longest-serving governor-magistrate of the Edo period.

Judge Ooka gained a legendary reputation for his integrity and ability to serve the interests of justice. As part of his duties, he also made an effort to influence the language. In 1723, he banned the usage of shinju (heart center), the popular term for a suicide pact, which in his view romanticized what was an illegal act. Shinju itself was an artificial term, created by puppet theater and kabuki dramatist Chikamatsu Monzaemon (1653-1725) for the title of his 1703 play “Sonezaki Shinju” (which was based on an actual incident occurring only two weeks before).

About four years ago I thought I’d show some of the regulars at Studio SIX a bit of suburbian underground. So we took two cars on a Sunday afternoon to make the trip to Funabashi in Chiba, seat of Wakamatsu Gekijo. Here’s the report that followed, courtesy of Scotto:

Nestled out in the middle of an otherwise undistinguished residential neighborhood in Chiba, is a fascinating little club called Wakamatsu. The photos of cute, perky women that are under glass next to the entrance are only a hint of what is inside.
