#japanese rope bondage
@repo-thedj @shygawife @unspeakableimaginings: thank you so much for taking the time to send these messages, I’m so happy (⌒▽⌒)
@theressomeoneinmy-head: Thank you! My favourite bondage is definitely ladders. They’re just so versatile and pretty… can be restrictive or decorative, and are a lot of fun & quick to tie!
@littlegirlandthewolf: I’m sorry we don’t take submissions at this time
@anon: There are lots of places to choose from, and everybody has a different preference for which ropes they like best. There really isn’t a “top rope” since it’s such a personal connection. If you can get to an event where a lot of people have different rope that you can handle and have a look at in person, I’d highly recommend doing that first.
Anyway, I’ve made a little list, the ones with an asterisk* are those that I like:

I recently had the honour of interpreting for one of Japan’s top nawashi, Mr. Otonawa and his lovely partner Miss Tsubasa, at MBEthis year.
While doing workshops we quickly realized he didn’t know the English words for the knots, and I could only give direct translations (which none of the English speaking students recognized).
With our host and fellow rope enthusiast Ben’s help, we came up with these equivalent terms.
This is basically my cheat sheet typed up – maybe helpful to others!
(for those who can’t read kanji, romanjisized names to the right in itallics)
