It might sound like a contradiction in terms but Japanese adult video is transnational. By which we mean that Japanese women aren't the only ones working in the industry. There are plenty of foreign performers too, including white women (especially if they look exotic).
Though Caucasian and biracial beauties often have the most success, you can also regularly find examples of women from other parts of East Asia.
The latest in this long and alluring lineage is Tiny Lu (胎尼), the fun-sized Taiwanese influencer and model who is making her Japanese AV debut this month. Tiny Lu's first ...
When April Fool's Day pranks go wrong.
Yesterday, we posted about the successful April Fool's Day stunt by gravure model Jun Amaki, who teased us that she was retiring. Of course, she wasn't and it was just a prank to get attention, and she even managed to attract news articles and raise her profile.
Influencer Sarimaru Kunikida's prank, though, attracted a very different kind of reaction.
The mom of one who works in PR and recruitment posted on April Fool's Day not about herself but about a guy from her company called Yuji Mizoguchi, a well-known entrepreneur and wrestler (and former ...
One of Japan's top gravure idols, Jun Amaki, has announced her retirement.
On April 1, the hugely popular gradol posted on social media to her hundreds of thousands of followers, claiming that her retirement was immediate.
"I entered the entertainment industry at the age of 17 and started my activities as a national underground idol. From the age of 18, I used my miraculous two-dimensional body as a weapon and continued to run as a gravure idol until today! This is my last year in my twenties. I have come to terms with my life and have decided to retire from gravure modeling."
She thanks ...
One of the most highly anticipated Japanese adult video debuts this month is that of Hikari Ogura (小椋ひかり), whose first release comes out on April 15 from E-Body.
Marunouchi OL's Most Amazing Breasts: Shocking Body Amateur Trial AV Debut (EBWH222) has, as the title suggests, an office lady theme and really places the emphasis on Ogura's tits. And what tits they are: these J-cup boobs weigh over 5 kilograms (11 pounds).
If the marketing is to be believed -- and in JAV, publicity is always a little suspect -- Ogura is a real OL who is giving porn a try for just a single release, so ...
Today, we are sharing some amazing images from Binding Force: Japan's First Facial Restraint Photo Book.
This is a 1990 photo book by Masatoshi Osanai that explores restraint fetish with lots of fantastically kinky portraits of women wearing BDSM gear like gimp hoods, ball gags, and even gas masks. Some of the more extreme images feature nose and mouth hooks.
All the photos are black and white and mostly just of the models' faces, but some are full-body shots (nude but with the bush airbrushed out, as is typical except for "hair nude" full-frontal nude books).
In the words of ...
Over 90% of married women are happy, according to recently published survey results.
The survey was carried out online in January with 200 adult men and women (100 each). Hardly a big sample size, though the results were surprisingly uniform.
Of the 100 women, 94 said that they were happy after marrying. This isn't quite the same as saying they were happy in or with their marriage (as in, the specific conditions of their marriage or their spouse), nor do we have data for how long these women had been married. Inevitably, the shine does come off and the daily toil of working long hours, ...
Sadly, we are now quite used to tales of sexual harassment in Japan and most other countries. These cases crop up a lot in the workplace, though also often in education, where there is a clear imbalance of power between the teacher and students, who are generally young and vulnerable.
And so we were both amused and confused when we read about a harassment case at a university that very much did not adhere to this format.
According to a March 21 report in the Mainichi Shimbun, Tokyo District Court ruled that the forced resignation of a university professor over alleged sexual misconduct ...
Japanese female police officers will no longer wear a skirt as part of their uniform.
The National Police Agency said last week that skirts will not be offered for female officers after March, making their official uniform trousers the same as it is for men.
In practice, many Japanese female police officers were already wearing pants for frontline duties, but skirts had remained an option and certainly part of the image of female police in the eyes of many.
Skirted police officers were part of the traditional image of the NPA in Japan, especially in parades and so on. The skirt had been ...
A few weeks after OnlyFans star Lily Phillips outraged the internet by documenting her effort to sleep with 100 men in a day, a YouTuber in Japan has held a party exclusively for people who have had 100 or more sexual partners.
One half of the YouTube channel Bicchi-chan., Mesia is a 24-year-old with self-proclaimed body count of 805 men (at time of writing). Her "hobby" is finding and having sex with new partners.
On March 20, she shared a photo of (by our count) 12 people, including herself, at what seemed to be a slumber party. Five of the participants were men, including at least one ...
With a hat tip to the ever-reliable Nude Asian Film for bringing the availability of clips to our attention, the insanely popular Japanese actor and model Ayaka Miyoshi has a nude shower scene in the Japanese movie Honshin.
The film came out in Japan last November and has just hit home media, so images and clips are finally becoming available, though the copyright holders are inevitably getting some pulled from social media.
Ayaka Miyoshi stands in front of a shower and steps into the flow of water. We see a bit of side boob and a faint outline of a tit, but no actual nipple, suggesting ...
