Soka

Exit the east side of Soka Station and you'll find a roundabout, bus stops, and a row of chain izakayas and family restaurants. The station area is moderately busy with shoppers during the day, but after dark foot traffic drops off and the residential character takes over.

Soka is a Tokyo bedroom community. A short walk from the station brings you to detached houses and apartment blocks. Adult shops are scattered in multi-tenant buildings near the station and along side streets 5–10 minutes on foot.

The adult scene in Soka is centered on delivery health (deliheru) and hotel health (hoteheru). There are fewer than ten shops, a small cluster. Many hotel health shops partner with love hotels near the station. Prices run about ¥12,000–16,000 for 60 minutes, slightly cheaper than central Tokyo.

Delivery health sends girls to your home or hotel; in Soka, home visits are more common. Hotel health means meeting at a love hotel near the station, with room charge separate. Both services cater to Japanese clients, and English support is virtually nonexistent.

Access: about 20 minutes from Kita-Senju on the Tobu Skytree Line. Operating hours are typically noon to midnight, busier on weekends. Reservations are by phone only, and you'll need Japanese to book.

This area is not recommended for foreign tourists. If you must go, bring a Japanese-speaking friend or call ahead to confirm.
