I have been involved in planning and operating relaxation stores in bathing facilities such as super public baths in the metropolitan area for over 20 years, including Oedo Onsen Monogatari in Odaiba, Tokyo.

Thanks to the experience and know-how I have cultivated, I was able to open my ideal first store, "Hogushiya LEO Hon-In Nagareyama Store (now Hogushiya LEO Hon-In (Annex))" on the first day of the Reiwa era.

And then, a year and a half later, on October 8, 2020, I was able to open "Hogushiya LEO Hon-In" just 30 seconds walk from the first store.

I am currently dreaming of opening my ideal store in a super public bath. I believe that my ideal store in a super public bath must be a place where all three parties, "owner", "customer" and "staff", are satisfied.
