Doesn't seem very sanitary to me.

Well .... you could always take them into the bathroom and give them a thorough wash ;).

And it’s not going to always be chics ordering, lol.

Strange...

As long as they're wearing masks, why not? I imagine - and there is a lot of imagining swirling around this article I'm sure - they have a jacket on till they get to the residence, and they slip that off and do a few flexes before grabbing the delivery and heading to the door.
If you eat sushi, why not fork out for a special delivery?

They have shown wrong muscle. Big breasts are wrong for men.
Aly Rustom
I'll pass thanks

Men have had Hooters for far too long. This is an alternative for those left out.
JJ Jetplane
I would rather a delivery person in a hazmat suit.

You're just jealous of these dudes' bods :D

Har!

I don't personally bother or criticize it, but I just wonder if activists are tolerant of such sexism. What if the case goes the other way, with female chef half-naked serving customers (for an extra payment)? There another hypocrisy.
Serrano
Do customers get to eat off their chests?
You're one of those people who eat sushi off women's tummies, aren't you? :D
Pukey2
That's what I was thinking. Some of the posters here probably have pot bellies.

Such an absurd article for readers! Mentally sick.

This side of Japan is really strange, sometime entertaining too.

gokai_wo_maneku
Totally gay gokai can tell you that this will be very popular among gay guys. Expect lots of orders!
jiji Xx
rampant sexism and treating men as no more than meat and sex objects......
smithinjapan
So, a sweaty body passing you raw fish during an epidemic... brilliant idea. Of course, they probably have to wear masks while... shirtless...

was just thinking this morning, when commenting on the article about measures to prevent 'outing' of 'sexual minorities', that I hadn't seen hide nor hair of Totally gay gokai for a while.... and here you are.... and as for your comment.... so they might not make it back to the sushi shop you mean? LOL
Kobe White Bar Owner
up to 10 orders a day ?
typo?
Luddite
How horribly degrading for the men and the customers. And what is it with the collar and bow tie/ naked chest look? It’s ridiculous.
Aly Rustom
Hell yeah! I'm ordering!
Guilty as charged!! BUT I do bodybuild and I am bigger than any of these guys. Just that DAMN GUT
Steady there, sailor!
I never would have guessed!
Vince Black
Skinny, all of them.
Goodlucktoyou
¥7000+ for sushi, I would expect extras. And the guy top right.
kohakuebisu
No, it's probably true. To be newsworthy, it only needs to exist. It doesn't need to be popular.
Bodybuilders are still seen as a bit of a joke in Japan, an attitude I am very fond of. They are not seen as being super manly or some blueprint other men must follow. Anabolic steriod use by ordinary men is rife in my country, the UK. It's on at least on a level with eating disorders in women.
Aly Rustom
Reckless- thanks for the advice mate! Will try that!

It's nice if a man has a nice body or a muscular build but what we woman want in a man is faithfulness, and dependability, a sense of humor, the ability to listen and a sense of style.
Vanessa Carlisle
Not quite the raw meat I think people want to imagine as they order and eat raw meat.
Jimizo
I’ve always thought bodybuilding is a kind of body dysphoria. There’s nothing wrong with toning up though.
Nope. About right.
i@n
That's a bit much for a sushi delivery guy
Goodlucktoyou
@aly. How about having an avatar. Would be nice to see. One like Putin on the horse eating sushi.

Having visited Nagoya in 1980's on board a freighter ship was charmed by the city.A real bold innovation in direct competition with the Geisha World. Ahoy !
raincloud
If I pay them extra I wonder if they'll deliver to me here in Osaka!
Wolfpack
Kimoi.
sourpuss
I wonder if the real idea is to help fellow trainers who usually make money at gyms, but can’t under present circumstances.
jiji Xx
oh dear! several people obviously didn't get the sarcasm (and social commentary, since if it was scantily-clad women, lots of people would've been crying sexism, objectification, and the like) in my comment yesterday.... LOL
Aly Rustom
I don't know how to put my picture on here.
can anyone help?
sir_bentley28
I wanna be one of those delivery guys!
