Black Heart
Black Heart, 1998–, is a Japanese bar in the bakushi / kinbaku ecosystem.
Era: 1990s
Ginza fetish / SM salon opened by Tatsumi Naito in the late 1990s and used as a kinbaku classroom and performance / salon venue. SMpedia's Black Heart page records the venue's 1998 opening, its kinbaku classes from the early 2000s and the teacher sequence from Matsui Kenji to Akechi Denki and then Saikatsu. Kinbaku Today independently repeats that Black Heart was the Ginza club where Matsui first taught, Akechi took over in 2004 and Saikatsu became the third teacher. Metropolis describes Black Heart as an underground Ginza salon with weekly kinbaku workshops, and the current official site still presents it as a long-running Ginza salon bar for SM, fetish and kinbaku interests.
