Definitions

Male counterpart to mamasan — the guy running a parlor or bar, handling money and muscle. Same Japanese honorific roots, same military-slang pipeline into English. Less common than mamasan because the trade skews to female front-of-house, but still standard when the boss is a man.

“Mamasan wasn't in — papasan handled the door and pointed me to room three.”
