A Japanese man has been arrested for public indecency after exposing his lower body to a woman on the streets of Hongo, Tokyo, in January.
The 29-year-old Masaya Yamada was arrested in April, though the crime was only reported this week in the Japanese media. The incident took place on the night of January 18. The victim was a woman in her twenties.
It seems that the arrest also led police to discover other crimes carried out by Yamada in previous months.
In addition to silently exposing himself in January, Yamada is accused of getting sexual pleasure from urinating on children's bicycles ...
These are some remarkable erotic images from Peep Focus and Peep Document, two 1980s voyeuristic photography magazines from Japan.
The fetish images were shared by fintan (pinakotheca), who nobly finds old erotic art and photography books, scans, resells the books, and then shares highlights online. He often features Japanese publications.
He also shared scans from an incredible 1990 photo book called Binding Force: Japan’s First Facial Restraint Photo Book, which we wrote about in March.
The most famous Japanese photographer associated with voyeurism is Kohei Yoshiyuki, whose 19702 ...
Two Japanese women in their thirties have been arrested for defrauding a Shizuoka man of ¥900,000 in cash after they met him on a dating app.
The two women, who are both in their early thirties, persuaded the man (also in his thirties) that they needed the money for hospital fees.
The women, unnamed in media reports are aged 34 and 31, and live in Chuo ward and Shinjuku's Okubo district in Tokyo.
Police suspect the pair of engaging in badger game to cheat him of money between May 22 and May 24 last year, claiming the money was for hospital fees (presumably to get tested for sexually ...
The Japan Ladies Professional Golf Association has banned 30-year-old male caddy Ryo Kurinaga from the tour for nine years. The ban follows Bunshun reports published in March that the married Kurinaga had affairs with three separate pro players (24-year-old Miyu Abe, 22-year-old Haruka Kawasaki, and 21-year-old Yumeka Kobayashi).
It is unclear if Kurinaga carried out his philandering with the women at the same time and how long each affair continued. His ban extends to attending any JLPGA event too.
You might think that this was a private matter and unrelated to the sport. Nonetheless, ...
On May 17, Sapporo Higashi Police Station arrested a 34-year-old company employee from Higashi Ward of Sapporo on suspicion of setting up a phone in his workplace's restroom and then photographing the genitals of a woman in her thirties at around 6 p.m. on May 16.
The incident came to light after the woman came to the police station at around 10:30 p.m. on May 16, reporting that she had been photographed secretly in the company restroom. It is not clear from media reports how she knew but she presumably found the phone, which must have been a chilling experience to say the least.
The man ...
The special menu they offer you at that bar in Shibuya or Shinjuku may well be too good to be true -- and it might well land the proprietor in trouble.
A bar in Shibuya offered a "VIP course" to customers who wanted to eat and drink while watching scantily clad female bar staff take a bath in a jacuzzi.
Shibuya Maison Sweet Dreams is run by a man called Wilbet Kerwin Carrasco Diaz, but the 40-year-old Peruvian has now been arrested by Tokyo Metropolitan Police for operating a business that violated the Entertainment and Amusement Business Law.
The VIP course at the Dogenzaka bar cost ...
Nagisa Watanabe is to release her first photo book, published in Japan on June 25.
Though still officially unnamed, it is very widely assumed that the former TV announcer is the woman at the center of the Masahiro Nakai sex scandal, which has ended his career and brought one of Japan's biggest broadcasters into disrepute.
It came to light late last year that Nakai, formerly of SMAP, had paid a female announcer a huge sum of money as compensation for a sexual assault. This is a common way in Japan to avoid someone pressing criminal charges.
The scandal has grown, with allegations of ...
A man from New Zealand has been arrested in Japan for attempted extortion after he sent messages to a girl in her teens.
The 56-year-old man, who says he is a chef but is unnamed in media reports, was arrested when he landed at Komatsu Airport in Ishikawa, a prefecture on the Sea of Japan coast.
He is suspected of sending messages to a teenaged girl in Ishikawa who he met on social media.
On April 18 at around 10 p.m., the man is accused of sending the girl a threatening message, warning her that if she ignores his messages he would go to her home. He told her to respond within two ...
With a few notable and noble exceptions, politicians are mostly on the fiddle or on the pull, their hands in the expenses till or around some girl's body. It's a story as old as the hills and pretty much the same in any country, including Japan.
You might think that any politician from the Democratic Party for the People would be a bit more cautious after the leader, Yuichiro Tamaki, was caught having a long-term affair with a gravure model, but temptation plays to a different tune.
The party was forced to punish Masaki Hiraiwa, indefinitely suspending him after allegations emerged of his ...
The release of photos of a Japanese singer who died at the age of 73 would not normally be news on Tokyo Kinky.
But the photos of famed enka singer Aki Yashiro have attracted a storm of criticism because they are nude.
The two pictures will be included with an upcoming music CD and feature Yashiro in her twenties.
When Yashiro was around 24 or 25, she was living with the man who took the two Polaroids in question. (He apparently has or had a further three similar nude Polaroids.) They were engaged for a while, it seems, but later broke up. He would set up his own music record label in ...
