Only if you guys know the pain the Oiran is bearing. She's literally carrying 30 kilograms on heer body right now. The headdress weighs 10kgs while the clothes weigh 20kgs. And yet she has to walk in that hellishly precise way. Damn, being a high-class prostitute in Japan is an eternal pain.
@@ultron374 of course it no longer is a profession, that’s already a given. the models of this show, however, still require painstaking trainings and strength to carry such heavy items during their parades.
They know how to change something simple to glorious way. A prostitution to flashy parade, a simple tea meeting to transcendental ceremony, ink writing to performance show, and nowadays poop to museum.
@@Haplo-san You and the commentator said EXACTLY my thoughts and how I felt while watching that majestic performance ✨ But the last sentence tho... 😶 What is that? never heard of it..
@@user-kj9ip2qq7j The poop museum? It is crazy, make a google search and see yourself. There is also "Japan manhole art", they are turning manhole covers to art pieces. And "stone museuem" called "Hall of Curious Stones" exhibits thousands collected pieces of small rock and stones that look like a face.
Absolutely beautiful! Also, my goodness how much pain umbrella man and the last three ladies must be in! That umbrella looks like it weighs a ton and those girls where pretty much in a half squat the whole time. 😯
$6000 per "date" and there are a total of 5 real Oiran left in Japan, she has right of refusal and will not be "friendly" with you until the third date. Also her social status is well beyond most people. hard life, yes, but it IS compensated and sought after.
Those those asking- it probably doesn’t hurt .. Taiyu / Oiran or おいらの所の姉さん or whatever you want to call it are trained either as Kamuro (before they become an Oiran or trained as a normal Yuujyo ( 遊女 ) before they become an Oiran. Either way it’s all in the process of being in a Yukaku / Harimise (張り見世) (?) and even working there was bothersome. Oiran had to learn how to sing, dance, do ordinary board games etc just basically be the perfect / ideal woman. They probably learned oiran douchuu (花魁道中) aka the Oiran walk. This is normal and they probably trained but it maybe would hurt if they were untrained. This walk in just for showing off the customer’s wealth and status
This is not some talent competition. They're rated on how much money they make for the brothel owner in the... "main event" of visiting brothels. Geishas were the primary musicians/dancers. Yuujyo were the sex workers and usually victims of human-trafficking, and become indentured servants (borderline slaves). If you want to see more of how that was like, just look up "hostess bars." It's has a lot of similarities to the old system, except the bar owners can't legally enslave the women like before, and officially patrons are not paying for sex... officially...
@@alexfrank5331 I don’t think they were saying it was a talent show. Most people know that an Oiran was a high class prostitute, they were talking about what Oirans were trained to do and asking a separate question.
This is false. Oiran are courtesans for the wealthy and trained in the arts including music, calligraphy and poetry. Geisha came second, they started as men who entertained customers as they waited for the Oiran or prostitutes.
The walk was simply a special favour done for some clients at their request. It was more so the client could show off his wealth and his prize (a night with an Oiran) rather than a common way for an Oiran to displace herself. I imagine more discerning clients with a reputation or promises to uphold would have asked that she arrive in a palanquin (which would have hidden her from view). The Oiran Walk is a very obvious an lavish display in all respects, and I doubt it was employed frequently. Oiran had the social status and power to refuse any part of a client, including his wishes, so I imagine that only Oiran who had deep relationships with loyal clients would do this for them. As shown, the procession is arduously slow and difficult, and the constitution of women was not as great as it is today, especially since most (if not all) prostitutes suffered from venereal disease and lack of competent and compassionate care.

They way they move is so graceful and fluid. But it must be agony, especially if it was hot and humid. When they then be expected to work right after that?
@@reqfernando hi happy new year! I am sorry about not having links, I didn’t know about that. I just googled my way into the antique films with oiran / so interesting, that is a custom carried forward to this day.
I noticed the oiran was allowed to steady herself by placing a hand on one of the men in the procession. Who and what are these men? Are they priests? They aren't garbed like Buddhist or Shinto priests.
This takes platform flip flops to a whole new level. I wonder back then when they did this it was like telling the whole street Some luckyguy is about to get laid with this girl right here.
I just saw a latest video of this procession on tiktok and the man that the Oiran was holding on is the same man from 11 years ago. I didn’t know abt this kind if culture but it’s fascinating
Along with the shoes to bump up the elegance and top level status of the oiran. They needed to look as good as possible (and mainly make the guest that could afford the service which is said to be around 30-50k in USD back then) look and feel the part too.

Can everyone just stfu about demon slayer and appreciate how graceful they all are?

It's hard to believe how beautiful, devoted, and discipline the Japanese people are!
They know how to change something simple to glorious way. A prostitution to flashy parade, a simple tea meeting to transcendental ceremony, ink writing to performance show, and nowadays poop to museum.
Japan also has its bad sides - animes and the media show here as a romantized place, but it rly isnt how you see it online

I come here because some Japanese man explain about oiran walk...
What a lovely performance! (I came here after watching the movie "Sakuran.") ♥
Well, between this and the strut from Saturday Night Fever, I'm convinced that every country has a kick ass walk.
how the heck did any oiran ever actually manage to get to the clients place

You might as well be equating a common bandit to the Shogun.
She's so beautiful! How much talent and endurance she has to be carrying 30 kg around while walking so slow and stylishly!
Really lovely. But, I would hate to be stuck behind an oiran procession if I'm running late :)
Take the rooftops, i mean you're in japan
They should do these walks at night with the latterns glowing. Make it more intense and spectacle.
“She’s so slow, she’d never survive in the mountains.”

If I cannot become Oiran, at least I wish one day to go and see one Oiran live too
Wow she walks so elegantly
Its just so amazing watching her walking on that heels..
I love the way she walks tho-
Everyone is talking about demon slayer while I need this for writing.
LMAO
Demon slayer brought me here
Same 😂😂
same
Imagine running with those heels
They way they move is so graceful and fluid. But it must be agony, especially if it was hot and humid. When they then be expected to work right after that?
Demon slayer taught me this 😂
shit, I watched this video three times. It's so hypnotic to me for some reason.
misumi or inagaki made a movie with the oiran walk in it with many oiran in the walk. the film was barely saved but even still, miraculous.
Any link?
@@reqfernando hi happy new year! I am sorry about not having links, I didn’t know about that. I just googled my way into the antique films with oiran / so interesting, that is a custom carried forward to this day.
I've got a crush on this oiran now
My feet hurt looking at that shoes
Why its literally flat platformers. Bruh idk why women freak out when they see shoes with any height to it
Komusaraki one-piece
yes :D
Very very beautiful.
3:33 my neck broke 🙃
Camera man issues
demon slayer got the walk down to the details... .smh
my god those sandals thick asf
i fell in love with her

Love it!! Can you imagine western models trying to do the Taiyu walk. I think that's how you spell the top oiran.
Sis ATE that up
This takes platform flip flops to a whole new level. I wonder back then when they did this it was like telling the whole street Some luckyguy is about to get laid with this girl right here.
Is there a reason behind such a specific and precise walk???
elegance
japan is the closets a country will ever get to embody autism
@@Crosshill what
From what i can tell its a mixture of the shoes and preformance. Shes the top of her field and needs to show shes as perfect as can be.
It’s purely a flex.
LOVE IT THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So beautiful
It must have been a day long trip just going to the store
I just saw a latest video of this procession on tiktok and the man that the Oiran was holding on is the same man from 11 years ago.
I didn’t know abt this kind if culture but it’s fascinating
Woahhhh!! So beautiful to watch!! But I think oiran should hurt so much walking on these extremely huge shoes :(
Pretty cool ! 💓❤❤❤❤
ONIII-CHAAAAAN -Daki
i swear i saw this tourist in the lower left corner holding a katana, since i could see the hilt O.O;;
She walks as if she's dancing ballet!
I’m here because of Demon Slayer
Beautiful 😍
Thank you very much.
Ayo demonslayer fans!!!
I am impressed
One Piece FC in VietNam đua tôi đến xem clip này
Astounding!
It’s said to take 3 years to learn to walk in those shoes.
Viewing and appreciating the procession would be greatly enhanced, without the incessant public announcement commentary.
What does the man at the head of the procession call out?
Translation: ( My feet hurt)
Wooden shoes was forced upon the Japanese by Christian Europeans. They say'd the kind of shoes the Japanese wore traditionally were uncivilized.
ok, we are living ina simulation.
and japan is totally glitched.
DAWG..
But this is a real oiran or just theater? Thought prostitution was forbidden in Japan.
theater

はぁ、たち外人
If i was with them a was going to lose all of my paition
Why is she walking like this?
Riri Simps that's how they had to walk in the past, I suppose it was seen as something sensual and elegant since oiran were top courtesans.
This walk is only reserved for the top Oiran of the brothel house to show her status and prestige if i remember correctly
Along with the shoes to bump up the elegance and top level status of the oiran. They needed to look as good as possible (and mainly make the guest that could afford the service which is said to be around 30-50k in USD back then) look and feel the part too.
Its tradition for an oiran to look as perfect and elegant as she can

What happen if the client 10 miles away
