After witnessing the femdom butt-kicking action of idol Hitomi Nogata, we return to highlight some ladies from Niconico Chokaigi 2015.
The event is kind of a tech and otaku bonanza, organized by Niconico, a video streaming platform.
This year's event was held over two days on April 25th-26th and was the biggest yet. Visitors numbered over 150,000!
This being Japan, naturally that included a lot of cute cosplayers...
There were also some colorful (or should that be scary?) male cosplayers.

Hot kickboxer model Hitomi Nogata kicks butt at Niconico Kaigi 2015

Regular readers will remember our trip to the Fetish Festival (Feti-Fes) in Tokyo.
Then we encountered all manner of fun and not-so-fun fetishes.
One of the best was the idol kick.
For a small fee, you could pay to get your butt kicked by a scantily clad idol.
This is obviously a variation on femdom, the fetish for being dominated by a strong female. Whether it be with actual bondage or by a harsh, rapid handjob, some guys get off on being treated badly by a hot chick. In Japan, girls who are "cold" are called tsundere and this is similar. Or remember that TV show that had hot ...
Tenga Egg vending machine spotted in Nakano Broadway, Tokyo

Tenga has a habit of turning up in unusual places.
From the garbage on a beach to a Buddhist temple, a business card holder, and even once in the home of comedian Tomonori Jinnai when accidentally shown on a TV show.
Back in 2012 some people stumbled upon this Tenga Egg vending machine in Nakano Broadway, west Tokyo.
It's a gacha-gacha capsule vending machine, which makes sense for the Tenga Egg. You get a single Tenga Egg for ¥500 and if you are lucky enough to get a ticket in your capsule, you can take it inside to the shop to claim a porn DVD.
We don't think this is ...
Fetish Festival (Feti-Fes) in Tokyo: Photo report

/ Tadashi Anahori
Fetish Festival (Feti-Fes) was held in Tokyo on Sunday January 25th at an inconspicuous venue near Harajuku.
There were 96 booths, including cosplayers, idols, bondage artists, and more, spread out over six seriously packed floors, plus a basement showing the "Underground Fetish Film Festival" screenings.
Feti-Fes was first held in January 2013, since then it has been held eight times around Japan. This festival -- the fifth in Tokyo -- was the biggest so far and there seemed to be hundreds of visitors by our estimate.
Due to legal reasons, there was no nudity allowed in the ...

Comiket 87 kicked off over the weekend at Odaiba.
Once again Tokyo Big Sight comes alive for three days from December 28th for Japan's biggest cosplay and comics event.
Unfortunately we couldn't be there in person but plenty of others were. Here are some pictures from the reliable folk at KAI-YOU, featuring lots of cute booth babes and "companions", whose job is to pose for pictures and try to promote games to the visitors.
Did they do a good job? Well, they certainly look nice in these ...
Tour inside a Shinjuku Kabukicho love hotel with Google Street View

Google is essential for ours lives -- searching for information, browsing images, checking a location on a map.
It can even help you pick the right love hotel.
Love hotels have their own websites and there are also plenty of portal sites with information on the various amenities and features at each facility.
Needless to say there are images.
But none as detailed as these provided by Google Street View, which lets you tour a love hotel in the heart of Shinjuku's Kabukicho.
The Designer’s Hotel & Spa Pasha Resort is more fancy than kinky, but sometimes that's what you ...
Talking to the teenaged JK business schoolgirl sex workers in Akihabara
November 6, 2014
/ Tadashi Anahori
The Japan Times has run an interesting story about "JK Industry" sex workers.
It focuses around two teenagers who are schoolgirls working in Akihabara in services ambiguously close to being full-on prostitution but often allowed by the letter of the law.
Seventeen-year-old Momo knows that her customers are keen on doing more with her than the official things she offers.
Momo is among the schoolgirls whom experts warn are prone to gravitate toward the notorious “JK” business — JK being short for “joshi kosei” (high school girls) — rampant in Akihabara and other parts ...
Fetish Night was a special bondage and ero-cosplay event held at Shinjukku's Club axxcis in late September.
The event included DJs, BDSM gear on sale, and of course mini bondage and shibari shows.
There was even a fortune-teller using special bondage-themed Tarot cards.
There was a (fake) bukkake performance too.
This lady was offering to paint fake wounds onto your arm.
This girl was wearing a provocative t-shirt with the slogan "chopping board", a slang word for being ...
Sex toys are good for environment: Tenga Enoshima beach clean-up event report
September 30, 2014
/ Tadashi Anahori
We reported a little while ago about the fantastic news that Tenga was giving something back by organizing a special beach clean-up event at Enoshima.
Participants competed to fill up their garbage bag with trash on the beach within 90 minutes. If you could get a full bag, you got a free sex toy, a Tenga Egg or Pocket Tenga.
This means you can put your hand on your heart whenever your girlfriend or someone criticizes you for hanging on to your trusty onahole, sex machine or other masturbation aid: sex toys are good for the planet!
Well, in case you couldn't make it to the event ...
