OMG, words almost fail me when I see this. This is a naughty, adult-themed room in what they called a "love hotel" in Japan.
Love hotels, essentially, are where people go to have sex. They are normally themed and can be rented by the hour or for an overnight stay, although I am sure not much sleeping will be done.
I can’t figure out the marriage between Hello Kitty and the Hotel Adonis in Osaka, which is still living in the 80s I might add. I find it strange that this type of thing turns some people on, especially because it blends the paradox of Hello Kitty’s innocent image. I am not sure what else to say about this except to watch out for an incoming Love Hotel post.
