Just a quick and dirty post today, indulging our tastes for vintage kink. It's no secret that we love older stuff here, especially hair nudes and sexy shoots from the 1990s and early 2000s. Give us Rie Miyazawa's "Santa Fe" over the latest AKB48 photo book any day. We also like to explore some of the fun, fascinating and fantastical aspects of the history of sex in Japan, from Yoshiwara to yobai night-crawling, shunga erotic prints, and no-panties shabu-shabu (yes, that really was a thing). One of our favorite recent finds in our daily trawls through the interwebs was this vintage ...

Last week Japanese highways were in the news when a truckload of live pigs was unleashed onto one road in Osaka. But this is a much more exciting anecdote. Imagine you are hurtling down one of Japan's many busy highways and, as you pass another car, you happen to notice the driver and passenger engaged in something other than navigating... and it's broad daylight. Oh, yes. This is one of those once-in-a-lifetime strokes of luck: spotting oral sex on the highway. Not only is the female passenger giving her lucky driving companion a blow job as he powers his motor vehicle, the ...

Tenga is doing so well that it can afford to send hot girls to a customer's homes. While that might sound like it defeats the whole purpose of a masturbation aid -- even ones as stylishly designed as Tenga -- be assured, Tenga has not branched out into prostitution and the ladies will only "dance" for customers. Japan's Apple of the adult industry is running this Go Go Tengirls Cool Tenga campaign to promote its summer-themed range of onacups, eggs, lubricants and other toys. The brand is asking people to tweet something with the campaign phrase and link in order to apply to take ...

They say that half the Japanese web is cats and the other half is food. That's false: a third is cats, a third is food and the last third is various shades of porn and adult content. So when you combine these elements, you get a recipe for a hit online or offline. For example, nyotaimori or the "condom cookbook" we featured back in 2014. Now along comes "Painyan", a new 96-page photo book by Yuki Aoyama released on May 31st. Regular readers will recall that Aoyama is the photographer with something of an obsession with schoolgirls. This time Aoyama has turned his lens away from ...

The question of Japanese bush is one that preoccupies much of our waking life. Too much or too little? For women who obsess about shaving almost every follicle elsewhere on the slender bodies, the bush is often an oasis of relatively unkempt hirsute charm: allowed to bloom and grow. It's thus sometimes a shock (pleasant or not) to encounter women who trim, wax or fully shave down there (paipan), even though this is very common elsewhere in the world. But what about the guys? Panasonic is suggesting that more and more men in Japan are seriously grooming their bodies, including ...

If this is what the ongoing cleaning-up of Shinjuku's notorious red-light district means, then bring it on. The AV and gravure idols magazine Weekly Playboy is opening a bar in Kabukicho from June 10. Every night, different gravure models will be serving drinks at Shupure Sakaba (Weekly Playboy Bar) to a few very lucky customers. This is an exclusive VIP bar with just five seats per session and a limit of only three seatings per night. Needless to say, reservations are a must and there is a hefty cover charge of ¥10,000 for one hour and a four-course meal (drinks and food not in the ...

Torture Garden Japan is back this summer for another bonanza of BDSM wonder. The premier mainstream event for bondage fans in Japan, it's also the only officially licensed offshoot of London’s original Torture Garden, the world's leading fetish club. It has been happening in Tokyo since 2001 and often holds events more than once a year, though the summer one is the highlight of the calendar. We blogged about the 2016 summer ball. Tickets to the event on June 10th at XEX Nihonbashi cost ¥6,000 and doors open at 10pm. Performers included Miss Miranda from the United States, ...

Recently it was "Kiss Day" in Japan. Given how little you see kissing in public here, perhaps it's pointless to have a designated day like that. That being said, apparently Japanese girls like kissing. In fact, 79.5% of respondents to a (somewhat bizarre) survey said they did, so it's safe to presume your date would like a smooch. It's just all about when and where. 51.8% of women said they had kissed someone they weren't dating (yet), proving it pays at least some of the time to lunge at a club or bar. (Curiously, the number was lower for guys: 58% of them said they had never ...

We first encountered the gyaru ero-cosplayer and model non (also known as Nonsummerjack) when we visited Fetish Fes 2015. Frankly she was so hot (and scantily clad) that we basically creamed in our pants. She was lying on a bed, charging a few coins for the chance to take a few photos. Since then we have occasionally followed her latest shoots and so on. All for purely professional reasons, of course! We are late with this -- it was an entry in our ever-growing backlog of future blog posts -- but back in April she did something pretty cool with the lower half of her body. Wait, stop ...

This 19-year-old college student may well have the best pair of breasts you are going to see this week, certainly on this side of the Pacific Ocean. Sure, there are plenty of AV idols out there with chests that are almost illegally impressive -- but you can't beat an amateur for sheer realism. After all, you might actually meet this girl in a bar in Tokyo! The anonymous university student is keen to show off her beautifully pale skin and firm nipples in a series of alluring nude selfies taken at home in front of the mirror and in the ...
