Tattoos
You can go in with tattoos
A neighbourhood bathhouse 7 min from the north exit of Nakano Station. The well water it had used for decades turned out to be a hot spring; every bath, the cold plunge (spring water straight from the source) and even the taps use it (officially described as a natural hot spring with metasilicic acid). Its official FAQ answers "Can I bathe with a tattoo?" with "No problem — we see tattoos as fashion and part of culture." Cash only.
