Police in Hyogo Prefecture have arrested a fisherman on suspicion of illegally filming women at local beaches.
The 53-year-old has admitted to using an infrared filter on a camera to take images of women in swimwear.
According to a police announcement on January 15, Norimasa Miyake allegedly took photos of eight women in swimwear between July 2023 and July last year. The women were aged from their teens to their forties, and were taking part in swimming and running events at beaches in Akashi and Minamiawaji in Hyogo, and Tamano in neighboring Okayama.
Police were tipped off to his ...
In Tokyo, we always see signage warning to be on the lookout for chikan (train groping) at stations and inside carriages. The government and police frequently issue awareness and prevention campaigns. We see videos on social media of passengers detaining a perpetrator or of suspects fleeing dangerously across the rails between platforms. And of course, there's no missing the presence of women-only carriages on most lines during rush hour periods.
But how common actually is chikan groping in Japan?
According to one new survey, it's very common: more than half of women in Tokyo have ...
The trial of former House of Representatives member Tamotsu Shiiki got underway at Tokyo District Court on December 24. He is standing trial for sexual assault of a junior high school first grader in August last year, having picked the runaway up in Kabukicho -- one of many such so-called Toyoko kids in the Shinjuku district -- and taken her to a nearby karaoke place knowing that she was underage.
At the karaoke parlor, the member of staff was concerned, because Shiiki and the 12-year-old girl did not seem to be a father and daughter. They asked for a name and phone number, and Shiiki gave a ...
It's almost the New Year holidays here in Japan, a time when everyone gathers with their family, eats nice food, and watches a lot of bad TV.
Likely to feature on one or more of those shows was former SMAP singer Masahiro Nakai, among the most famous male celebrities in the country but whose career is now in jeopardy after a scandal and serious allegations emerged this week.
In a scoop broken by the tabloid Bunshun, the 52-year-old is accused of paying a massive fee of ¥90 million to a woman as compensation, after a possible sexual assault in June 2023.
Nakai was in a relationship for ...

Christmas really is coming early this year. The gravure idol and actress Sena Natsuki (奈月セナ) has done her first nude shoot.
The 28-year-old's sixth print photo book came out last Friday and fans were delighted to see that she is nude in it. Silk of the Moon features the gorgeous idol's naked butt and breasts.
After years of semi-nude shoots, she's finally shown us what her beautifully shaped G-cup tits and ass look like in this sensual, exotic shoot by Tim Gallo that really accentuates her pale skin and Asian allure, and has a kind of timeless appeal.
Along with the recent Maki ...
Last year, porn star Eimi Fukada stoked controversy and pissed off her male fan base by arguing that men should pay for dates (since the woman is investing in other costs for the date, such as clothing, hair styling, and makeup). The controversy got so bad that she was forced to issue an apology video.
Clearly, the government has no such qualms. A government agency has included not paying for dating expenses as part of a list of things that constitute domestic violence.
The Gender Equality Bureau, which is part of the Cabinet Office, has defined violence in a very broad way. Its website ...

It's become normal now to see social media avatars and advertising images created with AI technology. But when does this become a problem? And when is it criminal?
At present, most of the images look a bit cheap and exaggerated, and are often easy to spot.
But they are still alluring, it seems, since a 33-year-old man in Osaka called Kaiga Yokota has been arrested for creating an overly realistic female character.
The issue is that he posed as this character, Miru Nanase, attracting followers on social media (to the tune of 90,000 on Twitter/X). So far so harmless, but Yokota's real intent ...
The world is gripped by the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the arrest of prime suspect Luigi Mangione.
People are trying to figure out his exact motives, with figures on both sides of the political spectrum hoping to claim him as a champion against corporate greed.
The 26-year-old is highly intelligent and well educated, it seems, and even made a trip to Japan back in May.
In social media postings, he made comments about the East Asian country, including his suggestions for how to fix the low birth rate. Don't worry, it doesn't involve shooting any more CEOs.
How can we ...
