“Who was it that turned me into this kind of woman?”
-Song from Gate of Flesh
Welcome to post-World War II Tokyo. The Occupied City. It’s a crime-fest. Aside from yakuza-run markets, gang wars, gambling, and seemingly everybody on the grift, prostitution is so utterly widespread, there’s even a governmental department named The Raa (Recreation and Amusement Association) specifically established to relieve the occupying troops of pent-up libidinal urges that could possibly be exorcised in even less wholesome ways. The ensuing fuckfest is prodigious. So prodigious that the moat around the Imperial Palace becomes “so clogged with used condoms” it has to be “cleaned out once a week with a big wire scoop.” 1
This is the world of the classic Gate of Flesh.
We open:
MPs drag a gaggle of women away, while other, luckier, women scream obscenities at their foreign occupiers. Thieves, looting from Us barracks, are shot in the back.
