This paper provides a detailed examination of "Yapoo’s Market," a fictional construct derived from the libertine philosophy of the Marquis de Sade, specifically within his unfinished novel The 120 Days of Sodom (1785). While the term "Yapoo" specifically refers to a sub-genre of Japanese speculative fiction and eroticism inspired by Sadean principles—most notably Shōzō Numa’s 1970 film Yapoo’s Market —this analysis focuses on the theoretical underpinnings of such a market as a manifestation of absolute libertinism. This paper explores the market as a socio-economic system where the human body is commodified entirely, analyzing its structural hierarchy, the reversal of moral and economic values, and its function as a critique of Enlightenment rationalism. By dissecting the mechanisms of supply, demand, and consumption within this dystopian space, we reveal how the "Yapoo Market" serves as a mirror to the darkest potentials of capitalist efficiency and unbridled desire. The concept of "Yapoo’s Market" originates from the intersection of 18th-century French libertine literature and 20th-century Japanese avant-garde cinema. In the Sadeian context, the "market" is not merely a location but a system of total exchange. The Marquis de Sade, in The 120 Days of Sodom , constructed a micro-society within the Castle of Silling. It is here that the theoretical framework for a "Yapoo-like" market is established: a place where the human being ceases to be a subject with rights and becomes an object of consumption.
