Former SKE48 idol Momona Kito, who made a sensational porn debut last year under the name Yua Mikami, has picked up prize at the DMM.R18 Adult Awards 2016.
Kito went from being a minor music idol in the AKB48 spin-off group to an AV star in just one release. Muteki -- a porn studio that specializes in idols, actors and celebrities making the switch from mainstream entertainment to AV -- then persuaded her to launch a full career in the adult industry and she quickly followed up with further releases.
Adored for her immaculate bust, Kito/Mikami picked up the award for best ...
Tenga isn't just about helping us masturbate better. No, they also want to help Japan's birthrate.
The Tenga Men's Loupe Sperm Viewer is a very easy way to check out your sperm count. Sure, it's not a medically approved device and shouldn't be used like contraception ("Hey, my sperm seems dead, let's rock!"), but it is a fun and fast way to transform your phone into a sperm magnifier.
Don't worry, your phone doesn't get messy either and you can use a cup and dropper to make things feel really scientific.
It has a set-up with different plates and the magnifier that ensures you put ...

How to solve a problem like a hotel shortage? Simple. Convert love hotels.
After all, if media reports are to be believed, Japan is sexless and the love hotels are not being used by couples, but rather ordinary businessmen.
Tokyo is currently experiencing a massive tourist boom and it has led to numerous new hotels springing up, especially in Shinjuku. But it is still not enough, particularly as the government wants the inbound tourist numbers to continue growing as we head towards the 2020 Olympics.
According to a Kyodo News article, the government wants love hotels to provide ...
Japan's best-known adult brand, Tenga, has once again inspired some nice cosplay.
There's something about the vibrant colors and naughtiness of the Tenga onacup that seems to capture people's imaginatinon, from porn star Mana Sakura to ordinary costumers on the streets during Halloween.
This time it's Minami Iida (aka Gohan-chan) who has transformed herself into an "anthropomorphized" Tenga. She posted the results online earlier this month.
Note the hairpiece, comprising an onacup and Tenga eggs. She even has mini onacup earrings!
For comparison, this is what the ...
Mitsu Dan is no stranger when it comes to nudity and showing us pretty much everything she's got.
Even as she gets older (she's now a ripe 35) and goes more mainstream, she still seems unafraid to shed her clothing.
While he days of appearing in soft-core bondage movies are likely behind her, a recent spread in a weekly magazine featured deliciously nude shots of Mitsu Dan taken over the course of the last 12 months. Her honeypot body is as curvy as ever.
Care to spend a year in her sumptuous ...
Imagine being so desperate for a boyfriend that you turn to crowd funding to hunt for one? Yes, you open up yourself to the perils of the internet to provide that special one and even fund your date.
Tomoko Takebe is one such person.
This lonely single Japanese lady is 178cm tall, which apparently makes her a little imposing for some local men.
The determined 26-year-old lady turned to crowd funding to raise ¥260,000. In the end, her campaign successfully raised almost ¥550,000 from 72 backers!
She works as a model for a photo stock service so she's certainly not ugly by ...
The 2016 Tokyo Rainbow Pride (TRP) march was held on May 8th and with other events all weekend long celebrating sexual minorities.
On the Sunday some 5,000 LGBT people and supporters walked between Harajuku and Shibuya, accompanied by 18 floats -- the most ever in the history of TRP. The event was centered on Yoyogi Park in Shibuya ward, which has established itself as a gay-friendly neighborhood after it became the first government in Japan to offer some sort of legal recognition of same-sex couples.
The revellers were joined by Caroline Kennedy, US ambassador to Japan, along with ...
So-called "vagina artist" Rokudenashiko has been found guilty and convicted of a charge of obscenity, and ordered to pay a fee of ¥400,000 (around $3,700).
Rokudenashiko ("good-for-nothing girl"), whose real name is Megumi Igarashi and whose first manga book has just been released in English, was first arrested in July 2014 for distributing data that enabled recipients to make 3D prints of her vagina.
She was arrested again in December of that year for making a plaster mold of a kayak based on her genitals, which was displayed at an adult shop.
Her defence argues that her work ...
