Rent-a-Girlfriend – Streamer shows what it's like to rent a girlfriend in Japan
Check it out:
Darren Watkins Jr., known as IShowSpeed, is an American streamer who hired a rental girlfriend service to have a companion in Japan. In a video on his channel, he demonstrated what it's like to travel with a rental girlfriend. However, the girl he hired isn't fluent in English, so it was difficult to introduce her in the video. Still, the date went smoothly as they enjoyed themselves in the area.
In Japan, the girlfriend-for-hire service does not provide sexual activities with the hired girls. Instead, the service simply allows clients to have a romantic encounter experience, such as a date. This includes a companion for dinner/lunch, conversation, and outings, but without sexual involvement.
Therefore, girlfriends for hire are different from services like prostitution, but this can vary depending on the location. According to the regulations and laws established by the service and its location in Japan, the client and the "girlfriend" will not be policed for having an "unofficial" relationship at any time.
Synopsis:
Shortly after a painful breakup with his girlfriend, Mami Nanami, Kazuya Kinoshita decides to rent a rental girlfriend named Chizuru Ichinose. As a result, he soon finds himself having to continue renting Chizuru to keep up appearances with his family and friends.
