Mr. Osada is no ordinary man. He’s an accomplished Nawa sensei, a man who lives by the rope and provides pleasure to women who love to be bound.

A man who has practiced his art for more than 50 years has the right to his own style. Osada sensei hardly ever stands still when applying his craft to the alabaster skin of Miss Kazumi, a well-endowed woman in her twenties. In fact, Osada sensei moves so fast that if ever a mortal being could be in two places at the same time, then it would be him. Osada sensei achieves his speed by jumping in all directions, busily securing his ropes in a captivating dance of bondage, not unlike the spider that wastes no time in securing his prey once entangled in its web. Thus this writer may be forgiven for dubbing Osada sensei’s practice the "flying rope man" style.

Osada sensei seems to abandon asa nawa (traditional Japanese torture rope) in favor of the more flexible, thicker, and colored cotton/synthetic variety. Osada sensei knows how to use the candle and the whip, though these serve as mere appetizers in the repertoire of a rope master where the handling of rope to control the woman supersedes all other techniques. All those that appreciate the work of a man at the pinnacle of his art can do just that on Fridays at the Bondage Bar in Shinjuku where the Osada Seminar starts at 9pm.

Door charge: ¥8,000 for the show. Thereafter ¥3,000 per 30-minute intervals for chatting with resident S and M ladies. Visitors in the mood for more private encounters can book a "playroom" for ¥18,000 with a dominant woman or ¥28,000 with an M-girl.

Osada Eikichi (1925-2001) - "father of kinbaku, as he is called in Yaronia"

It is rightfully considered one of the fathers of kinbaku. He became interested in SM while still a student in the 1940s. His public career started in 1960. He did SM and kinbaku shows at various clubs, founded the Osada Seminar community, and laid the foundation for Japan's SM/shibari scene. Osada Eikichi rightfully earned the title of Grand Master kinbaku. Many call him the "father of kinbaku" ( Itoh Seiu is called "grandfather"). In addition to promoting the kinbaku scene, the master made a great contribution to the development of the tying technique. For his skill, he received another name: "The Flying Rope Man" (Man - flying ropes).

His last performance was on January 20, 2001. After his death, the whole "empire" of Eikichi Sansei was divided between his model and the closest student, who traditionally took the teacher's name and became Osada Steve.
