Alpha Inn love hotel, Tokyo: Japanese S&M fetish themed love hotels in Roppongi! Casting National Geographic Taboo.
What’s been going in La Carmina-land? A lot! I’ll be traveling to about six cities in the next months for work (announcements soon). My Pirates company’s been busy with Tokyo consulting, tours and TV jobs. In fact, we’re working on a National Geographic show, and want YOU to join us! Read on for details…
Yesterday was the debut of World’s Weirdest Restaurants (Food Network Canada), the TV show I appear on and that we Pirates arranged. In the first Japan episode, Naomi spoke with authority about monkeys that moonlight as waiters. Watch us every Weds night on Food Network Canada. If you don’t have the channel, don’t worry, I’ll post behind-the-scenes photos and clips.
TOKYO CASTING CALL! We’re arranging a TV shoot for National Geographic’s TABOO. The program’s been on the air for 10 seasons, and is about extreme cultures/acts worldwide. This episode showcases the bagelhead (saline forehead inflation) body mod.
Tues, April 10 at 7pm: We need audience members for the Shinjuku exhibition, where you’ll get to watch the bagelhead procedure. Please invite friends. Free food and drinks, and you’ll get to hang with Yukiro and John Skeleton! You’ll be filmed as part of the audience, and potentially interviewed.
WHEN: Tuesday April 10, 7pm (you can come earlier but please be there at 7pm for the audience filming scene)
WHERE: “Studio-On”, 1-30-28 Kita-Shinjuku, Tokyo.
〒１６９－００７４ 東京都新宿区北新宿１－３０－２８

If you can come, please email me, gothiccarmina {att} gmail, with your full contact details and number of guests. Have fun!
As TV fixers, Naomi and I have received some utterly bizarre requests (for props, scheduling, you name it). But the absolute cherry on top… was the mission to find an anatomically-correct love doll, and deliver it to the S&M fetish love hotel within 24 hours.
Did we nail it? The image above says it all.
For the show Strangers in Danger (Fuel / Discovery TV), the poor (or lucky?) boys had to be dominated by Japanese mistresses. We set them up in Alpha-In, a notorious Roppongi love hotel.
There are various theme rooms: dungeons, cages, you name it. This one’s a medical clinic from hell, equipped with doctor coats, an exam table and stirrups.
In the hotel lobby, you can buy devices to entertain yourself and guests.
Cosplay costumes are also available to rent.
This sign shows which rooms are occupied, and the price for a “rest” or “stay.” Dominatrix not included.
Another room had a torture chamber. Metal bars and a leather horse. What’s the hole in the seat for…
Choose your weapon. (This Gothic mistress looks like she’s ready to do a shibari rope tying.)
The jittery love doll man gave us this brochure, advertising his other products.
He was a funny fellow. Alpha Inn has a bizarre themed love hotel room for any kink.
The love doll creeped me out. The skin felt cold but real, and the anatomy was true to life. At the end, we had to pull off her head and limbs, and stuff them in a body-bag…
Watch my appearance during the saline forehead injection scene of Fuel’s Strangers in Danger. To learn more about our TV hosting and production coordinating services, check out La Carmina & The Pirates.
Did your jaw drop when you read this post? Would you enjoy staying in one of these rooms? If you have questions about anything in the photos, leave me a comment.
PS: please help spread the word about our National Geographic Tokyo TV shoot. Hope you can make it.
