“I wanted to bring back the kind of prosperity that we had during the high growth period of the Showa Era.” Says owner, Sayoko about the reasons behind the naming of her establishment. Before adding with a smile, “The name might be Showa, but many of my customers are youngsters who were born in the Heisei Era.” Sayoko, who can always be found behind the counter is affectionately called “Mama” by the local 20 and 30-somethings who frequent her establishment.

“There are no young girls at Showa Era.” Points out Sayoko. “But instead of that I have the very latest in karaoke technology. And that means that I have customers who are good singers and who enjoy their singing.” Showa Era is equipped with one of the best karaoke machines that the acclaimed Daiichi Kosho company produces, the kind said to be the one the television stations use most often. This gives singers access to the very latest content. It also allows them to participate in tough karaoke games, such as those where they are cut off mid-song if they judged not good enough, or where they have to score the hard to attain 90 points according to the machine’s “accurate marking” function.

Score 90 or more according to the “accurate marking” function and win a bottle of awamori! Some customers practice at a karoke box before trying their hand against the “accurate marking” fucntion on Showa Era’s karaoke machine. But 90 points is an extremely high hurdle, and less than 30 customers a year win a bottle of awamori.

“Give it a go!” Said Sayoko, so I screwed up my courage and gave it my best shot. But it was really difficult!! I didn’t even get to the end of my first number before I was cut off mid-song. A formidable challenge, indeed.
