If you like dancing and you like gravure idols with big breasts, then head to Circus Tokyo on August 10th. The enticingly named N.U.D.E.

The ladies spinning the beats are: Tsukasa Wachi, Sara Oshino, Rina Hashimoto, Aya Hazumi, Haruka Kai, and Airi Shimizu. Despite the name of the event, they won't be naked.

More images have emerged from Minami Minegishi's new photo book. There was some initial buzz about it last month over a preview "hand bra" picture that appeared. Now some other images have appeared and they show Minami Minegishi at her slinky best. Watashi wa Watashi (I am Me) is shot by famed nude photographer Meisa Fujishiro. It went on release on July 12 but so far hasn't been selling well. In fact, the major AKB48 photo book releases from Rino Sashihara and Haruna Kojima sold much better. Now that Haruna Kojima will graduate AKB, the last original member left is ...

School of Youth 2: The Unofficial History of the Gisaeng Break-In is a strange sex comedy set in a village school in the late Joseon period and portrays the shenanigans that go on there. There are several explicit sex scenes, including some nice cowgirl and doggy shots. If you like Korean girls in historical Korean robes getting down and dirty on the floor, you'll enjoy the scenes if you can wade through the dull comedy in between. Information about the 2016 film in English is sorely lacking but we can tell you it stars Ji Eun-seo, who was also in the erotic film Mutual ...

"Let's play sex," the guide explains. We've seen these kinds of videos before but they are always fun to watch. This time it's The Hotelion in Sendai that provides YouTuber Abroad in Japan with the opportunity to go inside and check out the rooms. As we know, the somewhat infamous hotels with crazy themes are actually something of a rarity -- most hotels are relatively ordinary.

We spotted this story shuttling around various overseas media outlets. It's been a few weeks since it was first published but, given that foreign press don't think this kind of story ever gets old, we decided to run it anyway. Of course, it is that old trope: a lonely Japanese guy and his fake girlfriend. This might be a virtual one or a music idol he'll never meet, or a dakimakura hug pillow -- or, as in this case, a a sex doll. Here we go on that merry-go-round again... Despite being married with two children, 61-year-old Senji Nakajima admits that his heart lies with his ...

It's the usual story. An idol hits 30 and her career is on the verge of waning. What can she do to raise the ante? Oh, right: strip off. And so it goes that Shoko Hamada has revealed her cute butt to us at the ripe old age of 30. The former race queen, gravure idol and so-time music idol (yes, we all remember that classic from 2004, "Lolita Race Queen") has dropped her clothes for a photo shoot, and the results are petty fine. Sure, her butt's a bit flat -- this is Japan, after all -- but it has grab-me-now charm. Of course, all this flesh is ...

The "hair nude" is a curious Japanese-English term. It refers not just to naked flesh; it's naked flesh specifically with genital hair. What is "shocking" here is the display of pubic hair, the line by which art and entertainment is usually fettered in Japan. It is fine to have plenty of nudity in films and print publications, but to avoid the century-old ambiguous obscenity laws, people censored or did not show actual pubic hair. The hair nude set out to deliberately show this bush taboo was something to be challenged, both legally and artistically. While the likes of Nobuyoshi Araki ...

BuzzFeed Japan asked some of the top gravure idols to come into the studio and spill some home truths for them. Each gravure idol was asked to pose with a notepad telling us what their life was really life. Here is Nanoka, saying "Life is simple." Apparently she spends her days off just sitting around at home. Rina Hashimoto dispels one of the myths of her job. "I don't enjoy the locations." While it might seem like paradise to fly to Hawaii or other exotic locations for photo shoots, the reality of the job is apparently less glamorous. You spend all day shooting from morning till night, ...

Shoko Takasaki stunned us when she made her porn debut earlier this year as Shoko Takahashi.
