Play Games And Have Your Ears Cleaned At Akihabara's Cute Room

Cute Room, an upcoming shop opening in Akihabara this October 4th, will soon offer customers a chance to spend time with one of its female employees and engage in a variety of non-sexual activities. Clients select a themed room -- maid room, school room, Monster Hunter room, etc. -- and pick out a costume for the girl they will spend time with.
You can watch a DVD or play video games on a number of consoles (Wii, PS3, PSP, Xbox, and DS) with her for around ¥1,000 ($11) every 30 minutes, or you can pay your companion to fake her affection for you by massaging your hand, giving you a love letter, reading a bedtime story, slapping you in the face (both sides), or just looking at you.
Even more strange than those activities, for ¥1,500 ($16.46), you can rest your head on a girl's lap and have her clear your ears for 20 minutes. Apparently, some guys are really into this! Last month, one customer at another shop became so smitten with the woman cleaning his ear, he spent around ¥300,00-400,000 ($3,291 - $4,388) per month, and ended up stabbing her when she refused to become his girlfriend.
Crazy and expensive, right? Might be better to just play your video games and clean your ears at home.

Oh! What a cute picture!
Oh! It's a Felynx! Boy I love Monster Hunter!
Cute Shop? I love cute things!
That's kind of weird.
Holy crap are you serious.
Oh dear god.
To just LOOK AT YOU!?
Well, at least the ear-cleaning thing didn't freak me out that much, being a Japanese quirk I was previously aware of.
So how much is it to just play Monster Hunter in the MH room -without- the girl? Hanging out with what looks like a room full of awesome MH plushies and spearing some dinos for their precious bodyparts sounds like it could be relaxing.

I could use a good ear cleaning. I don't fetishize it or anything, but if I were going to go get my ears cleaned there are much worse places than in a monster hunter room with a cute girl dressed in leather and bones.
