Steps to entering the bar
The bar is located on the first basement floor of a multi-tenant building in Ikebukuro. I found it easily as I went down the stairs and saw the bar name written on the door in large letters. It was just after opening time, so I was worried that it might not have started yet, but there was no need worry. When we entered the shop, it was almost full, with many muscular female staff, and the atmosphere was very lively. Moreover, as far as the eye could see, all the customers were traveler from other countries.


Entering the bar and Cheers
There was a large oval bar counter on the floor, and customers sat around it. K and I were guided to a seat close to the stage. In addition to the drink menu, there was also a menu of event options, and various options were available, and various options were available, and various options were available, and various options were available. event options, and various options were available, such as having the muscle girls (female staff) "slap you", " Also, it was OK to take photos and videos inside the bar. also said that it was OK to share them on social media without mosaics.
After an explanation of the system, K and I ordered highballs. When it was time to toast, we all yelled loudly so that the whole store could hear it, and all the muscle girls and other customers toasted together!

Introduction of the muscle girls after the show
After the show, the muscle girls gathered at the front of the stage and were introduced. They greeted each other one by one, and at the end they went around the counter and gave each other high fives.


Asking guests, "Which coutry are you from?"
The muscle girl with the microphone walked around the counter, asking each guest, "Which country are you from? Occasionally, the names of rare Central European countries were mentioned, which made the atmosphere more lively. When it was my turn to say "Japan!", the whole bar erupted in excitement. Another thing that was notable was that there were quite a few female-only groups. From what I remember, it felt like about two-thirds of the guests in the bar were female.
When I asked the muscle girl who was in charge why this bar was so popular with foreigners, she told me that when they live-streamed a show in the bar on a streaming app, it went viral and sparked their popularity with foreigners.
About the fee
Since I had other plans with K that day, we only stayed for 30 minutes, and the cost was 1,500 yen + consumption tax, so 1,800 JPY per person. Since I had other plans with K that day, we only stayed for 30 minutes, and the cost was 1,500 yen + consumption tax, so 1,800 JPY per person.
Maybe it's because they didn't offer any options, but we had a lot of fun at a very low price. It seems like it's always lively, and it's interesting that most of the customers are foreigners. If you're interested, please check it out!
