Takashi Tsujimura

Tsujimura (辻村) family name, Takashi (隆) first name, (1921-1987)

Activities

Kinbakushi and Writer. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Takashi Tsujimura established modern Kinbaku Art. He was active as a kinbakushi for virtually the whole run of Kitan Club magazine. Encountering Kitan Club before Toshiyuki Suma, he contributed historical stories during its pulp magazine period under the names Kanrou Shindo and Takehiko Midori. From around the summer of 1951, he became involved with other gravure magazines, and in 1952, he was tying early Kitan Club models Ikuko Tachibana and Tanako Kawabata. Two years later he became the central kinbakushi for Kitan Club when Toshiyuki Suma left in 1953. For early bondage, he examined classical bondage methods like hojojutsu, etc., but gradually he specialized in SM play and evolved these methods into modern bondage. He serialized "Bondage Models Revealed" In 1955 and "Camera Hunt" from the end of 1964, earning the support of many readers and establishing the style of "SM kinbaku as a practice."

Alternate Name(s)

辻村隆(Japanese), Kanrou Shindo, Takehiko Midori.

  • "The night before he was pulled to war, a woman who secretly desired him said, 'You can do what you like with me.' So he excitedly tied her with a waist cord." And "He couldn't forget the feelings in that moment, He continued to think even on the battlefield, 'I want to tie her one more time. I don't want to die in a place like this.'"
