The former HKT48 idol Haruka Kodama has announced that she has worked as a hostess in Ginza.
After making a stunning comeback in gravure last year and released a digital photo book in January, is the model and actor in need of some regular work to keep herself in clover?
Not quite. Along with some ravishing pics of herself in full hostess garb, Haruppi released a video in which she "snuck" into a club for one night and got to try out a shift as a hostess.
The 28-year-old is playing a hostess in the April episodes of Tokyo Kanojo (a YouTube drama series), so she says she was gaining ...
Last month, we wrote about the party that the promiscuous YouTuber Mesia held for people with a body count of over 100.
Seeing the mixed group of young Japanese people at the party was impressive enough, but Mesia recently shared "data" on her bedroom conquests in March. And it's a good indication of how the 24-year-old has already had 807 sexual partners in her life.
In March, she claims to have had sex with 14 partners (by our count, it's 13 different men and a second encounter with the same guy). She recently shared a list on social media with more details.
March 1: Yokohama happening ...
Today, we are sharing some amazing images from Binding Force: Japan's First Facial Restraint Photo Book.
This is a 1990 photo book by Masatoshi Osanai that explores restraint fetish with lots of fantastically kinky portraits of women wearing BDSM gear like gimp hoods, ball gags, and even gas masks. Some of the more extreme images feature nose and mouth hooks.
All the photos are black and white and mostly just of the models' faces, but some are full-body shots (nude but with the bush airbrushed out, as is typical except for "hair nude" full-frontal nude books).
In the words of ...
Over 90% of married women are happy, according to recently published survey results.
The survey was carried out online in January with 200 adult men and women (100 each). Hardly a big sample size, though the results were surprisingly uniform.
Of the 100 women, 94 said that they were happy after marrying. This isn't quite the same as saying they were happy in or with their marriage (as in, the specific conditions of their marriage or their spouse), nor do we have data for how long these women had been married. Inevitably, the shine does come off and the daily toil of working long hours, ...
A few weeks after OnlyFans star Lily Phillips outraged the internet by documenting her effort to sleep with 100 men in a day, a YouTuber in Japan has held a party exclusively for people who have had 100 or more sexual partners.
One half of the YouTube channel Bicchi-chan., Mesia is a 24-year-old with self-proclaimed body count of 805 men (at time of writing). Her "hobby" is finding and having sex with new partners.
On March 20, she shared a photo of (by our count) 12 people, including herself, at what seemed to be a slumber party. Five of the participants were men, including at least one ...
No boyfriend or girlfriend? No problem. There's an app for that.
In fact, there are lots of apps for virtual dating in Japan.
But dating sims are so entrenched in Japanese society that they are even now part of ID photo booths.
Such booths, which are commonly found at stations and malls around the country, are quite competitive. You would think they are much alike but different booths offer special functions, like being able to edit and retouch your photos before printing.
ID Vox booths even offer you some companionship during the few minutes that you are taking your passport ...
Is this what all Japanese maid cafes will be like in the future?
With Japan's population aging at an alarming rate, one event in the city of Kiryu in Gunma demonstrates that it doesn't matter if you're young at heart.
A maid cafe is open only once a month but is attracting attention and popularity from both customers and national media. This is not like a maid cafe in Akihabara, where you are likely to be served by a very young and cute lady. The maids are all aged 65 or older.
According to a report in the Yomiuri, people are coming around Japan to meet the maids.
At the year's first ...
Comiket was held on December 29 and December 30 in Tokyo, and attracted 300,000 attendees -- the most since the COVID pandemic.
It's a welcome sign that Comic Market is back in rude health after the grassroots cosplay and doujin event seemed to be on the decline both in terms of attendance and demographic, with fears that participants were aging and becoming increasingly male.
Initial analysis of this edition's numbers suggests that half of attendees were in their twenties.
It certainly is a male-centric event, though, and booths like Neowiz's do little to dispel this reputation.
The ...
While the uptick in streetwalkers around Okubo Park in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has attracted immense mainstream and social media attention, mostly because it seems to be very young women doing it (according to the police and media narrative) because they are all in debt to host clubs, what about Osaka?
Japan's second city rarely likes being outdone by the eastern capital, hence it is holding a hugely over-budget world expo next year as a kind of riposte to the Tokyo Olympics. And it also has its own new "problem" with streetwalkers.
The location is a certain backstreet among the love hotels in the ...
Hot Powers is best known as a retailer but it also produces its own toys to great acclaim and success.
One example is the high-quality Favorite Things Hole, which take the best elements of a masturbator and packs them into a single toy.
It was created in collaboration with the YouTuber efty, who is known for innovative use of 3D printers to make stuff.
We were exploring efty's YouTube channel and came across this video made of a visit to Hot Powers' factory in Saitama, which probably marked the start of their creative collaboration.
We once visited the factory of renowned sex doll ...
