During the Winter Olympics we all got very excited about Japan's cute curling team.
Now it's the Summer Olympics in London and all local eyes are on the sexy volleyball ladies! In particular the slinky looks of Kaori Inoue and Saori Kimura have been attracting attention.
Best of luck, girls!
Good to see the Girls Generation (SNSD) ladies getting into the Olympic spirit as well. AKB48 vs. Girls Generation at volleyball, anyone? Now that would be an event we'd like to ...
Following in the dinky footsteps of their forefathers (or, fore-ladies), the wonderful girls of SKE48 are also now to get their own official venue.
Nagoya-based SKE (named after Sakae, an area in the city) have up to now being using the Sunshine Studio as their performing home, but from September it will revamped as a full theater, much like the famous AKB48 venue in Akihabara. This shows the growing success of the spin-off, probably the biggest AKB sister group. (There are several others, including in Fukuoka, Osaka and even Jakarta.)
It has a following of course in central Japan ...
Soft on Demand has a reputation as the biggest and best porn company in Japan. Its titles are innovative and daring, involving the most famous stars and directors.
Now comes their latest twist. To work for SOD you would have to be of a certain mindset, right? Actually, we've met some of the employees and we can vouch for how "normal" they are.
But clearly the porn is infective. Take the example of Aya Sakurai.
She was just an ordinary "office lady" (OL) working in the PR department for SOD. But she got so into the products she was helping sell that she ended up being scouted to ...
Slinky and sexy actress Ryoko Yonekura is known for being nubile and sexy... and unmarried.
The 36-year old former model has famously done semi-nude photo shoots for Anan and was recently appearing in the musical Chicago on Broadway.
Having recently broken up with her Japanese boyfriend, Ryoko is now said to be getting very "close" to her choreographer on the American hit show. During the long rehearsals she took in New York to prepare her for her challenging role she and Gary Chryst apparently became more than just colleagues.
Chryst is no doubt used to being close to women ...
Summer is racing by, don't let the weekends go to waste!
Now is the time to hit Kamakura beach and the other stretches of sand around Tokyo, because there are guaranteed to be legions of hot girls.
Outside the vaunted world of idols and JAV porn, you won't catch any nudity, unfortunately. But the girls will be wearing very skimpy wear, for sure, and there is aways a legion of slutty bronzed gyaru as well.
Actually, the lack of nudity on Japanese beach -- in contrast to other parts of local culture, like communal bathing -- means the men are fascinated by foreign beaches, ...
One of the Japanese tabloids has claimed that controversial and outspoken Osaka major Toru Hashimoto had an affair with a hostess between 2006 and 2007.
Hashimoto (below, left) has since admitted his guilt in the latest scandal in his career, which has seen him attack tattooed city workers, teachers, puppet theatre and anyone he didn't agree with in his notorious unapologetically brusque style.
"Well, first I've got to explain to my wife. There's a massive 'penalty' waiting for me at home," he joked at a press conference.
As we've seen before, adultery is no biggie in Japan, ...
AKB48 handshaking events, when fans can "meet" their idols, have come into attention again.
Team B's Rie Kitahara (21) -- and probably only one of the only two genuinely hot AKB48 members -- has fallen under the obsessive attention of one male fan, who wrote on an anonymous message board:
We argued about her hair [at a handshaking event]. It's bad of me but I think of Rie-chan totally as my think. It pains me that other people are appraising her.
Countless otaku believe they are the actual boyfriends of the girls, which is why they react so ferociously when Rina Sashihara ...
Good news, guys. Those zero-cup flat-chested girls will be off the market, leaving only ladies with more ample chests.
As we've said before, Japanese girls are notoriously small in the bust area. But if you've ever wanted your suspicions answered that Japanese guys all have Lolita Complex and want as young-looking a woman as possible, this might be the closest to proof there is.
A survey by Love Cosme has found that a surprising majority of the nation's men no only do not mind about small breasts but they even WANT their woman to have an A-cup!
I know, bizarre, huh? The June ...
It was only recently that Japanese para-athlete springer was dropping her running clothes to raise money for her travel costs to the London Paralympics.
Now firefighters in Okinawa are following suit -- by taking off their suit!
Yes, if you're a fan of hunky, muscular Japanese men, especially the bronzed Okinawan kind, then get your hands on this sweltering set of images, perfect for the summer.
Local firefighters are showing off their prowess in a series of postcards being sold for charity. Following on from the calendar sold last year, the postcards are raising money for a costly ...
Kidnapped people famously can end up joining their captors, and hostages can turn into terrorist sympathizers.
Well, here's a new take on the Stockholm Syndrome.
When a TV station dispatches one of its reliable female journalists to report on an outdoor nudist camp at a secret location in the Japanese countryside, it expects her to get deep into the story and deliver a fully formed report.
Well, they get more than they bargain for the with the Weekend Only Japanese Nudist Village, a "kikaku" ("project") genre Japanese porn epic set in the far rural resort that is home to a group ...
