They might have chunkier thighs and muscular arms, but a new generation of Japanese women's volleyball players is winning hordes of fans.
A million miles from the non-sporty bodies of AKB48's minions, nonetheless these girls are cute, erotic and homely. We ...
Miho Kanno, the much-loved actress and model, has announced she is getting married to fellow actor Masato Sakai.
They have apparently only been dating for three months but I guess, with Miho at 35 and he at 39, they know it's now or never!
Miho became famous very young and was also a singer in her early days. She is probably best known in the west for her appearance in the Takeshi Kitano film Dolls and the Mika Ninagawa film Sakuran (in which she appears briefly nude). Her face is a common sight in advertising as well.
She was also, along with Rie Miyazawa, one of the first ...
Ah, when will our thing for Japanese school girls settle down? Not any time soon, that's for sure.
Fuji TV was filming a program at Tokyo Disneyland and a group of high school girls were posing innocently in front of one of the theme park's monuments.
No harm in that, right?
Except they decided to jump up to make a "special" shot for the photograph.
The result was a particularly lewd moment, all filmed for our benefit by the ...
Sounds like a dream job, right?
A young Japanese man, Kei Akatsu, initially used crowdsourcing to create his online project, Bijo Sekai Chizu (Beautiful Girl World Map), in which he travels the globe, approaching hot girls and asking to photograph and profile them.
We imagine that most of the girls the guy comes up to think he's just a creep and tell him to get lost.
The science student has an advantage, though, in that his website looks quite nice and genuine.
He's so far been to Canada and America, and dipped his toe in South America and Southeast Asia.
We would ...
Anan has done it again. It already has a reputation for being a soft-core porn magazine in all but name, and after Yuki Kashiwagi, Maomi Yuuki, and countless others, it has now persuaded model Nanao (24) to pose for a sexy shoot.
We can't wait for the rest of the images to go online to share them! For now, here are some oldies to give you a ...
Sexy half-Korean, half-American haafu model and actress Kiko Mizuhara has posed for Shiseido and the results are, as expected, a touch provocative.
The shot is a "te-bura" (hand bra) shot that recalls a certain AKB48 controversy of late.
While Kiko does not have much bust to speak of -- but we have long promoted the charms of flat-chested girls -- she does look rather lovely nonetheless.
The photo was taken by Araki, the photographer famed for basically being a dirty old guy and taken lots of images of naked girls.
This is a behind-the-scenes shot. Unfortunately we don't ...
2013 might already be into March already but some people are still making calendars for the forthcoming year.
Buttah, a curry restaurant in central Osaka, has made this Bijin Curry Calendar, a series of alluring shots of "semi-nude" girls and, well, curry.
Formerly a photo series that featured in a Kansai fashion magazine that finished in 2010, the calendars by Buttah have been going since 2011 and increasing every year (though, to be fair, even for 2013 there are just 200 copies, so we're talking esoteric tastes here).
Food and the erotic. That's our kinda ...
We've been "investigating" another fab genre of Japanese pornography a lot recently.
Homeless porn.
Back in 2011 we saw our first title, where a young J-girl is homeless in L.A. and has to sleep with tramps to get a place to stay.
But there are many, many more.
Some take the common "girl-in-peril" motif and have the young lady being forced to undergo something that is "dirty" or humiliating, or an incredible challenge.
Often the sex is semi-public, watched by all the other homeless guys in the community.
In general, this "humiliation" style is a frequent style in many Japanese JAV ...
Masami Nagasawa, the 25-year-old actress and model who first swept onto our screens while still a young teenager, has stumbled a bit in her career of late.
Gone are the big ads and the constant magazine covers, surpassed by the foot soldiers of AKB48 and other younger models.
And she has been hitting back, doing more sexy shoots where she even -- shock! -- shows some leg!
The result is that she has matured from cute teenager into sensual woman.
Her love life has always been a secret, since she is one of those girl-next-door types for whom having a sex life would be ...
Over on Tokyo Reporter there is a cracking tale lifted from a tabloid investigation about three people being arrested in February for using subsidized housing provided to Fukushima disaster evacuees for a sex business following the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011.
Officers took sex-club manager Tsuguo Sakuma, 37, company employee Tatsuya Ishioka, 32, and Eiwa Sawara, 41 — all of whom are residents of Fukushima — into custody for allegedly using two apartments located in Chuo Ward of the city of Niigata as a dispatch area for sex workers employed at a deri heru (out-call sex) ...
