Photo Nomination

Photo nomination is a common method of selecting a cast member at soaplands and other adult entertainment establishments in Japan.

Establishments provide photos and profiles of their cast members, allowing customers to review them before visiting and nominate their preferred cast member. A nomination fee is typically added to the base price, ranging from a few thousand yen to tens of thousands of yen.

The advantage of photo nomination is that it gives customers a reasonable idea of the cast member's appearance and vibe beforehand. However, photos may not always perfectly represent reality, so it's wise to keep expectations realistic.

When nominating, check the cast member's schedule and communicate your preference at the time of booking. Popular cast members may have limited availability, so planning ahead is recommended.

Some cast members may decline photo nominations or have different nomination fees, so it's important to confirm the establishment's rules in advance.
