Description
Mizushoubai (water business) is the term for Japan's night life activities, such as fuuzoku (similar to prostitution but none of the illegal bits), hosting and managing (entertaining at bars), and kyabakura (night clubs).

Recently, it was decided that a high school should be founded to educate the youth in these areas where they previously had no such guidance: the School of Water Business, "Mizushou", located in Tokyo's Shinjuku ward.

The story is from the perspective of a teacher, Tanabe Keisuke, who was transferred there to help teach that school's first generation of students.

Great by 50carrots on February 2nd, 2008, 4:04pm

well... by kawaiiairbender on September 10th, 2007, 1:24pm

Hmm, this is an interesting idea. =_=
I can not agree, condone this at all. But in all truthfullness I don't see much of a diffrence between doing things for money and doing things for free. =_= But a school for this, not cool.
But like I said the manga is interesting...

The merry life of teenage prostitutes... by Mindflayer on July 1st, 2007, 11:38pm

actually makes me very sad... and angry...

Neither a plot nor completely unbelievably cute character designs can save a disgusting setting from being disgusting. There are some topics I just cannot find funny, especially not if the writing is as unintelligent as it is in this case.


But, somehow I just want to know how it goes on... I mean, will society become a giant whore-house?

Really good. by myopius on May 5th, 2007, 1:56pm

You expect it to be a shallow and overtly ecchi story, and then it hits you with a social commentary, and an un-boring one at that. As Anonymous (one of them) said, there's no deep plot, it's mainly just about the characters--teachers and students, equally--growing and learning in the company of one another, and their various unusual experiences.

So yeah, this manga is all about the adventurous learning experiences of the characters, upon whose conclusion everything turns out okay. But these types of experiences aren't just redressed versions of the types you'd find in other stories, plus they're totally untraditional in that they deal with such serious and "mature" themes.

Actually there is something like this in the real world. It's called a Thai massage.
Yeah, like the posts above said. Good story, surprising, really, considering its so ecchi

"Entertaingly different" - well said! by Anonymous on August 11th, 2006, 8:55am

I'll admit, I first started reading this for the fan service and that didn't disappoint. But there's actually a pretty interesting story involved. Slowly, that became the reason I read it, not the fan service. Good art and entertaining characters.

Entertainingly different by Anonymous on May 14th, 2006, 1:17am

Read vol1 so far, and it's actually good. There's no deep plot (yet) and the humours' decent.
