Roshutsu outdoor/public sex is a big part of adult video in Japan and, thanks to Fantia and OnlyFans, there are also lots of amateurs trying to make a quick yen by making and posting their own videos.
But be careful, folks: the boys in blue are not as keen on your content!
Yuina Yamamoto was recently arrested with her boyfriend, Ryuken Yoshino, a restaurant owner in Nagoya, for public indecency.
The pair, who live together, were known for making sex tapes under the name RYO&YUU and posting them online to make money.
Since last summer, Yamamoto and Yoshino filmed videos and then ...
While Japan is always keen to promote its traditional culture to the world, the truth about it is sometimes complex and not altogether positive.
Geisha are one of the most iconic images associated with Japan, especially Kyoto. But in very simplistic terms, geisha were and remain not so different from modern-day hostesses in that they get paid to entertain patrons who were/are typically male, older, and wealthy.
There is, of course, still a culture of geisha today in places like Kyoto. One ex-trainee geisha (known as a maiko) has caused a stir by sharing some of the more unsavory facts about ...
The latest survey about sex and romance in Japan to grab the headlines claims that 40% of single men in their twenties have never been on a date.
The results of the government survey also suggest that this problem isn't just men either. About 25% of young single women too also said they had never had a date with another person.
The numbers get a bit complicated, because 5% of married men and women in their twenties also said they had never been on a date, though this may mean they met their partner through a spouse introduction service and don't count their pre-marital meetings as "dates." ...
Things about gender are not always clearcut in Japan.
Some of the guys can spend as much time and money on their skincare and hair as the ladies. Styles of haircuts and clothing too are not always divided down the conventional male-female divide, from the male kimono to the elaborate styling of nightclub hosts. And that's before we even get into the deep and rich world of crossdressing and transgender.
While we will leave the cultural theory implications about this to the armchair philosophers among our readers, we were delighted to come across this story about the apparent new hit in the ...
Feti Fes is Japan's top fetish festival. We have attended before and previously posted photo reports that readers seemed to like.
It's the kind of event where every little room, cubbyhole, or booth is dedicated to a whole other fetish. Participants include chika (underground) and gravure idols, ero-cosplayers, fetish service providers, and goods and merchandise retailers.
After postponement due to the pandemic -- obviously, given the nature of the event, it's hardly compatible with social distancing guidelines -- Feti Fes 19 was finally held in April. We were not able to attend but, as we ...
The trial of former KAT-TUN member Koki Tanaka over possession of drugs has now begun in Nagoya. The 36-year-old musician and actor, who was a member of the boy band until 2013 and then a solo artist, has admitted the charge of methamphetamine possession.
Nagoya police arrested in February this year. It follows his previous brush with the law in 2017, when he was charged with marijuana possession.
But there's another "crime" that the Weekly Bunshun uncovered (in an article first published in February this year).
Tanaka was apparently affected mentally by the pandemic and being unable to go ...
Remember the awesome dinosaur-themed love hotel in Machida, Tokyo, we wrote about last autumn? It looks like it was seriously damaged by fire recently.
On the evening of June 9, flames were seen coming from the roof of the dino-inspired Hotel Artia, making it look even more like a scene from Jurassic Park than it did before. Social media was flooded with pics taken from cars traveling along the nearby expressway.
The cause was reportedly the wooden sauna located on the roof of the hotel.
No injuries or fatalities resulted from the fire. Moreover, no damage to the main structure of the ...
Papakatsu, the buzzword that refers to compensated dating for sugar daddies, is in the news again.
Takeru Yoshikawa, a politician with the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, has been accused of drinking with an 18-year-old girl.
House of Representatives member Yoshikawa, who is 40 but frankly looks a but older (perhaps it's the jowls), has a wife and two daughters. He was photographed arriving with the girl at a high-end hotel in the Odaiba bay district of Tokyo in late May.
According to the scoop in News Post Seven (that includes 46 pictures!), he and the girl arrived, checked in, and then ...
Maki Makie (マキエマキ) has been working since the early 1990s as a freelance commercial photographer.
Now aged 56, she gained a whole new following when she began taking self-portraits in 2015 and repositioning herself as a "selfie jukujo" (自撮り熟女) model.
This fame has had some unexpected consequences, as she revealed in a long interview with Bunshun.
Her self-portraits revel in a Showa-era atmosphere. Often shot in sketchy or remote locations (like old, rundown resorts or empty shopping streets), they mix humor with the erotic. She is currently exhibiting her work in ...
Our post yesterday featuring the confessions of a foreign female about compensated dating in Tokyo led us to this case study (from early 2021) on legal website Bengo4, which sets out to answer a curious question: What happens to your assets if you divorce your wife for compensated dating?
According to the author (a lawyer), an aggrieved husband consulted him about divorcing his wife, who had been caught doing compensated dating.
Apparently, starting from around the time they got married, his wife was meeting another man around two times a month and having sex with him. For these dates, she ...
