Tag: hot springs visit

An onsen is a term for hot springs in the Japanese language, though the term is often used to describe the bathing facilities and inns around the hot springs. Often the cast of a show somehow ends up going to an onsen because of various reasons, such as winning a lottery ticket.

Usually used for fanservice purpose as it gives the staff the opportunity to draw the characters nude and raise the DVD sales.

Another cheap variant is the sentou episode.
