This is the shop that I visited in the morning after with popcorn customers last Friday.
"Half-Fish Man" is a gay bar in Shinjuku 2-chome, and I sometimes use it afterward.
Actually, it closes at 4 o'clock, but only on Fridays it was extended until after 5 o'clock. Thank you very much for asking me to do so.
Below is a link to the shop's mom, Marilyn, on Twitter.
Recently, the gay bars in Shinjuku 2-chome are all tourist bars, and now I feel that they are no different from ordinary boys' bars.
As for me, if you want to have fun drinking in the second chome, cute and beautiful are good, but I think that it is also good to have a restaurant that entertains you with deep and funny conversations.
The half-fish may be too impactful, but it was like an old-fashioned gay bar (okama bar) and I enjoyed it.
Below is the gallery of half-fishmen. The giant "Rin" installed at the entrance sounds "Gone" instead of "Bang". 😅

Closing Notice (April 27, 2023)
Via LINE, I received a notice of closure from Mama Marilyn, a half-fish person, as follows.
good morning.
I'm sorry for the sudden, but I'm going to close the shop on the 27th of this month. Thank you very much for your support over the years. I'm really sorry that I couldn't visit the store even once. Thank you for your help.
