# Kobetsu (個別)

*Kobetsu* (個別) literally means “individual”.

 In the context of Japanese SM clubs or professional erotic services, it is used on social media or in “classified ads” to refer to a private session.

 The phrase normally used is *kobetsu o-shibari no irai* (個別御縛りの依賴), which includes the idea of a “request”, an element required by the Japanese legislation that regulates this sector.

 Other common wordings are *kobetsu o-shibari sesshon* (個別御縛りセッション, “private shibari session”) and the more informal *puraibeto o-shibari* (プライベート御縛り).
