1. What is TS/TV & Specialized? (Definition)

TS/TV & Specialized (New-half / ニューハーフ) refers to professional nightlife services featuring MTF (Male-to-Female) providers. Japan has a world-class “New-half” culture, known for its high standards of beauty, fashion, and hospitality. “Specialized” (Tokushu) may also include niche fetishes or unique themes that cater to specific international tastes.

2. Estimated Costs for Tourists (料金の目安)

⚠️ Price Policy: Prices for TS/TV services are often similar to or slightly higher than standard escort services due to their specialized nature.

  • Total Budget: ¥25,000 – ¥70,000+ JPY
  • Course Fee (Kousu-dai / コース代): Usually for 60, 90, or 120 minutes.
  • Special Request Fee (Rikesuto / リクエスト): Some shops charge extra for specific “plays” or fetish requests.
  • No Tipping (Chippu Fuyo / チップ不要): All-inclusive pricing is standard.

3. How to Use: Step-by-Step Guide (利用方法)

  • Step 1: Understanding the Term (Kotoba / 言葉) In Japan, MTF providers are called “New-half” (Nyuu-haafu / ニューハーフ). If you see this sign, it means Transsexual/Shemale services.
  • Step 2: Booking (Yoyaku / 予約) Check if the service is In-call (Mise / 店) or Outcall (Deri / デリ). Many TS services in Tokyo are Outcall (Hotel Delivery).
  • Step 3: Verification (Kakunin / 確認) The agency may ask about your preferences regarding the provider’s “status” (Pre-op/Post-op). This is a standard procedure to ensure mutual satisfaction.
  • Step 4: The Service (Sabisu / サービス) The service is highly professional and ranges from sensual massage to full intimacy. Providers in this category are often very friendly and accustomed to international guests.
  • Step 5: Payment (Mae-barai / 前払い) Pay in Cash (Genkin / 現金) upon arrival.

4. Strictly Prohibited Actions (NG行動)

  • No Disrespect (Bujoku-kinshi / 侮辱禁止): Any discriminatory remarks or disrespectful behavior toward the provider’s identity will result in immediate termination.
  • No Unprotected Acts (Gomu-nashi NG / ゴムなしNG): Condoms are 100% mandatory for all sexual activities.
  • No Rough Play (Ranbou-kinshi / 乱暴禁止): Unless specifically agreed upon in a BDSM/Fetish session, keep the interaction consensual and respectful.
  • No Filming (Satsuei-kinshi / 撮影禁止): Privacy is paramount. Taking photos or videos is strictly banned.

5. Crucial Precautions (注意点)

  • Terminology Difference (Yogo no Chigai / 用語の違い): While the term “Shemale” is common internationally, in Japan, “New-half” is the polite and standard industry term. Use this when searching or asking staff.
  • Operating Status (Ope-zumi / オペ済み): If you have a specific preference for Pre-op (Before surgery) or Post-op (After surgery), check the profile tags or ask: “Ope-zumi desu ka?” (Is she Post-op? / オペ済みですか？).
  • High Popularity (Ninki / 人気): Top-tier New-half providers in Tokyo are extremely popular and often booked out days in advance. We recommend booking early.
  • The “Panel Magic” (Paneru Majikku / パネルマジック): Japanese New-half providers often use professional makeup and lighting. While they are exceptionally beautiful, the “Panel Magic” (photo editing) still exists.
