That’s just the idea behind the latest fad spreading throughout Japanese cities at the moment. The Host club phenomenon has been around for ages, but what’s different about the new surge of interest, has been Host clubs that cater to young Japanese females, and their unbounded enthusiasm for pop idol worship. This new breed of Host clubs are hiring young male staff that have all of the charm and charisma of real-life pop stars, but with the on demand availability that the real life stars can’t offer. All of this comes at a price, of course, but female fans don’t seem to mind paying top Yen for the privileges.
