Fairy

I have to say, 'Fairy' is not a name I would've picked for an escort service catering to heterosexual men. But to Japanese ears it probably sounds great.
The box is highlighting 'cute' and 'gentle/affectionate' as qualities that they specialize in.
I wonder if it is a coincidence that the word that they use for gentle (yasashii) also can be translated as 'easy.'

Hmmmm.
