Japanese women take their bras and cup sizes so seriously they even wear bras designed to reduce their bust or special designer lingerie to bring out the best of their A-cup chest.
Smartphone app ChiChi helps you measure your bust when you leave your phone between your melons.
These are all vague claims at present: ChiChi is looking for "testers" ahead of a January release. So if you want to give it a try, apply on the app's official website.
Putting a phone between your breasts may sound like a new tech version of paizuri, but it's actually rumored to cause breast cancer, so ...
Dakimakura Kisai for hug pillow otaku rock music to let it go
December 14, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Dakimakura Kisai is a "festival" for hug pillow fans to celebrate their beloved anime character-decorated cushions while moshing their hearts out to rock music.
For the fourth event, the festival was held at Shinjuku Antiknock, a gig venue, on December 6th.
Unfortunately we couldn't be there in person but reliable subculture online magazine KAI-YOU was, so here are some pictures to give you some idea of what this unique event is like.
Essentially this is a concert event for the band milktub, which is led by vocalist bamboo -- a colorful performer also known for making ...
American Occupation servicemen enjoy Japanese Turkish baths
December 12, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Here's some vintage coverage of United States servicemen enjoying nascent Japanese-style Turkish baths (toruko-buro, the old name for what became soapland).
"The Turkish Bath has come to Tokyo with a difference," it proclaims. "Real Hot Turkish Bath". Hmm, quite.
The source is apparently a June 1958 issue of adult magazine People Today. The original scans are viewable here.
The magazine article appears to cover the new modern steam baths appearing in Tokyo in the postwar period, possibly during the occupation years before prostitution was illegalized.
This is all very ...
Chichi Kabe Titty Wall Onahole is for multiple breast fantasies, and then some
December 11, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
The new Chichi Kabe Titty Wall is like a femdom koonago "tiny man" fetish masturbator.
Imagine being smothered by dozens of massive breasts, the large busts like pillows on your face and body from all sides. This is the dream behind the Chichi Kabe Titty Wall Onahole.
Kanojo Toys says:
There are multiple breasts on the outside of this unique toy, making it a joy to touch and caress as you explore the internal tunnel. And, what's more, inside the breasts continue in the form of giant nubs and bumps that will stroke your member all over.
This "external organism" is a growing ...
Nyotaimori is one of those urban myth sex fantasies that only seems to happen in movies or manga. It's not even certain whether it has any real historical basis, though this hasn't stopped foreign movies and TV presenting it as a fundamental example of Japanese kinkiness.
Of course, there are places where you can try eating sushi or sashimi off a naked woman's body.
It has become a rather cheesy ritual that sometimes happens at certain parties, though the aptly named Nyotaimori Tokyo offers a "fashionable" dispatch service where they send a naked female food plate to your ...
It's been a long time since we did a regular "idol of the week" post but here's a great one to whet your appetites and make up for our tardiness.
The shapely Anri Uda certainly made an impression on us when she posed for an (unfortunately censored) shoot for Weekly Playboy earlier in the year.
That's one sure-fire way to make your gravure debut. Sadly the uncensored images are only available in the actual magazine.
We love her body: curvy, but without a bust that's too overloaded.
Born in 1991, Anri Uda is ...
7,175 men grope porn stars’ breasts for AIDS awareness
December 8, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
The annual AIDS awareness charity event 24-Hour TV: Eroticism Saves the Earth was held over the weekend, complete with its televised antics and its now frankly traditional Shinjuku porn star breast groping event. All in a good cause, we'll have you know!
Leading up to the event there was even an online fund-raising campaign. Love is Patience challenged you not to look at hot Japanese girls while they did "sexy" stuff. The longer you held out, the more money raised for charity.
This year's event at the Shinjuku venue attracted 7,175 people -- the highest ever and around 1,000 more than ...
Underwater Knee-High Girls series is now a monthly magazine
December 7, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
It seems that the world can't get enough of the alluring world of Manabu Koga's Underwater Knee-High Girls.
After first seducing us in 2013, the conceit of having cute girls in slinky swimming costumes and knee-high socks shot underwater has not got old.
In fact, as Koga has added gimmicks like props and worked with the likes of "flat-chested" lingerie designer Gomi Hayakawa. The swimsuits in the photo books and exhibitions have even become actual products (in collaboration with sexy swimsuit brand Realise), fans have continued to flock to his vision.
Three photo books later, ...
Otaku eat virtual girlfriend kiss-flavored candy
December 4, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
A kiss isn't always something most otaku have experienced yet. And they certainly haven't experienced it with their 2D idols (after all, who has?).
But that doesn't stop their fevered imaginations -- nor does it stop the people who want to make money out of otaku wet dreams.
The candy Kanro Ame has a new flavor: game idol kiss.
Girl Friend Beta, for those poor unenlightened souls out there, is a iOS and Android phone game, with a PlayStation Vita spin-off, manga versions and even an anime adaptation. Quite an industry already.
Essentially it's a dating simulator game with various ...
Vintage Japanese sex guide for youngsters from 1960s Japan
December 3, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Some generous soul has unearthed a copy of an old Japanese sex guide for youngsters. And what a find it is.
The first thing to note about The Young Person’s Guide to Sex is the hairy armpit on the cover. Different times, different attitudes, folks.
Dating back to the 1960s, young people could read this handy guide to learn such important things as how to hold hands with your partner.
Apparently such activities as shining your man's shoe or combing your lady's hair were also part of the courtship ritual back then.
And then there was the nose-touching and chin-stroking.
The ...
