Japanese hostesses face uncertain future as clubs close during coronavirus pandemic

Bloomberg has published an interesting in-depth article on hostess clubs in Japan during the coronavirus pandemic.
"Champagne, chandeliers and glitzy cocktail frocks are all part of the fantasy world conjured up by Japan's hostess clubs. The coronavirus has delivered an unwelcome dose of reality."
Since the outbreak, much of the media reporting and imagery promoted by politicians has unfairly blamed nightlife for spreading the virus, rather than the various other factors (also) responsible such as crowded commuter trains, offices, and regular izakaya and restaurants.
It is true, however, ...

We have been recently exploring the incredible erotic art of Namio Harukawa (春川ナミオ).
Harukawa specializes in femdom fetish art, especially facesitting, portrayed through amazing female characters with huge hips, thighs, and buttocks. If you want to see guys smothered by phatt asses, this is the world for you.

Busty Japanese college girl entertains herself (and us) at home during lockdown with nude selfies

With many if not most universities in Japan starting their spring semesters with online-only teaching and classes, students are unable to do what they do best: hang out on campus.
Instead, they are stuck at home, not quite on lockdown per se but also unable to go to their universities, and probably lacking the financial resources to do many others things.
So what can they do? For the uninspired, there is always Netflix. For the horny, of whom there are many, there is sex, masturbation, porn, and adult toys.
In the case of this college girl, she decided to entertain herself and the rest of ...

These news stories are coming thick and fast.
Just Monday we reported on the emergence of a service using Zoom to offer a virtual hostess club experience.
Now there is SmaCaba, another remote hostess club service.
With a typically Japanese mashup of "smartphone" and "kyabakura" (cabaret club, a euphemism for hostess club) for its name, SmaCaba links hostesses and customers through their handheld devices. The session that a customer enjoys with an available hostess is conducted via LINE, Zoom, or Skype. Sessions are available from 7pm every day except Sundays.
The customer/user pays with ...
Three Japanese porn stars give advice on the female orgasm

The female body is a mysterious vessel, the female orgasm especially so.
Here are three ladies who should know what they are talking about: porn stars Jessica Kizaki, Airi Kijima, and Hinano Kamisaka.
In these video interviews, they describe what it is like when they orgasm. While we have seen them writhe with pleasure in countless adult videos, it is something else to hear them talk about the feeling and physical changes they undergo in detail.
This will surely come in handy for when you try to parse your female partner to see if your efforts are having any effect on her sexual ...
Virtual kyabakura on the rise as Japanese hostesses use Zoom to keep working during coronavirus pandemic

We recently wrote about the various ways that the coronavirus pandemic is affecting the adult industry in Japan.
While certain prostitution services are attempting to exploit the crisis for its marketing potential, the plight of hostesses is gaining attention. Kabukicho, where many hostess clubs are located, has been identified as one of the probable causes of the spread of the virus in Tokyo due to the closely confined nature of the clubs. One-fourth of people in Shinjuku infected in March were working in role connected to nightlife services.
With nightlife in the capital essentially dead ...
Call girl service in Japan exploits coronavirus for marketing opportunities

We wrote recently about some of the ways that the coronavirus pandemic has affected the adult industry in Japan.
We didn't talk about prostitution much except for the closure of Tobita Shinchi, a famous red-light district in Osaka, and outbreaks associated with Kabukicho in Tokyo.
It's a sure thing that people aren't going out to red-light districts or brothels, but what about other types of fuzoku services such as delivery health?
Well, it seems that call girls are still available and may even be busier than usual as lots more people hang around at home with little to do except think ...

In times of crisis like the current pandemic, thank goodness for the generous genius that is Toy's Heart.
The long-running Japanese adult toy brand has been a part of our lives for what seems like an eternity. Back when we first started getting interested in sex toys in Japan and trying out the early Tenga releases, we found Toy's Heart and quickly realized that this is a brand with something special.
Its signature anime/manga-style character packaging has been replicated and extended by the good folks at Tama Toys, but there will always be a special place in our, well, hearts for Toy's ...
How has the coronavirus affected the adult industry in Japan?

With the coronavirus pandemic still raging all over the world, many people are stuck at home. If they are stuck there with a partner, the chances are they are passing the time by getting intimate together. There's nothing quite like sex to take one's mind off a crisis. Failing that, there's always masturbation, so we are sure that traffic for porn sites is going through the roof right now.
Things in Japan just got more serious, with the declaration last night of a state of emergency, although the current number of infections are still much lower than other major industrialized nations.
How ...
