Bondage in Tokyo...Shibari!

Shibari - To Tie

I watched a recent episode of Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown Tokyo. This sarcastic towering, chef, poet and word enthusiast managed to combine Tokyo foods with the bondage scene. Truly amazing. As you know MyLunaKiss has written about bondage before Shades of Grey was thought of as a book. 

Mr. Bourdain has traveled to Tokyo dozens of times and his love affair with the food is well known. Tokyo After Dark shows a mix of Cosplay, Fetishes, gaming obsessions and some major bondage.

Kinbacku - Japanese Rope Bondage

He interviews a woman that works as bondage master during the day but is submissive at night to her boyfriend. He performs Shibari aka Hojo-jutsu on her and it seems to be quite effective. Bourdain asks the group he interviewing "Who is into bondage in Tokyo?" and they both reply separately. ..everyone.

Japanese Rope Bondage

Definition for Shibari is "to tie" based on the martial art form of restraining which dates back to the 1400's but it was used to torture and imprison Samuri Warriors back then..fast forward to present day and this form for punishment is a form of ecstasy for the women of Tokyo (dating back to the 1800's) and the proper name is Kinbacku.

Rope Bondage Japanese

This type of rope knotting is viewed as an art form and erotica in Tokyo and other parts of the world including the USA aka Japanese Rope Bondage. Safety is a big deal in this realm.
