Fake friends and family- It talks about how there are professional actors that are ready to jump in and act as anything you need. A best friend, a husband, a father, literally anything. It helps with appearance which is a big thing in Japan. People base what they think of you off of appearance. I personally don't think I could work and be a fake friend or family member to someone. It'd be too hard to know that they're pouring out actual emotions and feelings about what's going on in their life because they need it and then after the time period of what was asked is up, say goodbye and act like nothing even happened. Being paid to be someone's fake friend or family member would be nice, mainly for the money, but it'd be so wrong to do that to someone that's lonely or in need of an actual friend and has to pay to get that attention. I couldn't do it, thinking of what you'd be putting that person through after you leave is hard. Knowing that you're there for them for a set time and then maybe never be back for them again, it'd hurt. They'd deserve an actual friend to lean on and go to everyday of their lives. I think another con to this whole arrangement is that it seems like it messes up the idea in peoples heads to actually go out and talk someone and become REAL friends with them. I feel like it blocks people from going out on their own and keeping them in their shy little boxes. That's not really what a lot of people need. I don't really like the idea. It just messes with peoples heads too much and I don't like the thought of that.
