As we all know, Japan -- or at least, Japanese pop culture -- has a serious liking for the yaeba snaggletooth. Some girls even get their teeth changed so that they have the protruding, pointy upper canine look. Apparently there is so much demand for this brand of beauty from certain kinds of men that we now learn there is even going to be a pop band solely devoted to girls with the "cute" dentures. And not just any band -- it's a cosplay otaku one! Apparently a world-first, TYB48 -- no prizes for guessing which band they are imitating in their nomenclature, then -- is launching out of ...

The just-opened Katamomiya is for girls to indulge in some kata-momi (shoulder massage). Guys can go too and get a massage, but the main target are the ladies, hence why the store is located opposite 109 in Shibuya! Although it's not a sex shop (so don't expect any "extras"), there's a definite erotic element to the proceedings. The Katamomiya website also clearly lists the staff (guys and girls) and all their attributes, so you can choose the person you want to engage in kata-momi-communication. For the opening event a few days' ago they even had one of the SOD porn stars giving the ...

Former Miss Universe Japan runner-up, model, and actress Biwon has admitting having plastic surgery last year. We found this amusing because many Japanese girls like to discard the amazing "bijin" quality in Korean women with the excuse that it's all just due to plastic surgery. Certainly it is more common and latent on the peninsular. However, it's a dirty secret in Japan (along with how idols essentially have to sleep with their management at the start of their careers) that many idols and singers have used plastic surgery to enhance their "perfect" look. Unlike Korea, though, few will ...

Well, surprise, surprise... What we always suspected! Sexy haafu Meisa Kuroki has officially said she is pregnant, ending weeks of tabloid rumors. So singer Jin Akanishi doesn't like to use condoms, it seems. We speculated as much when the celebrity pair announced their sudden marriage. I guess this means we will be seeing a lot less of the half-Latin American, half-Japanese goddess, but then her singing or acting careers have not taken off so she was basically stuck doing half-baked modeling work these days anyway. There is one remaining hope. She goes the way of Hitomi ...

Before there was SOD, JAV and all their bizarre hentai genre, Japanese porn was a different affair. Often not "hard core" in the true sense of the word and watched in special movie theaters, "pink" cinema was led by Nikkatsu and their "Roman Porno" genre during the Seventies. Though watching them now they seem rather tame compared to the extreme antics of Japanese pornography today, they still merit value as nostalgia, genuine art and also a unique brand of retro kinkiness in their own right. They also launched the career of many now respected art house directors, such as Koji ...

Last week we saw really stormy weather in Japan, not just once but twice. Windows smashed. Trash was blowing everywhere. One unlikely side effect of the weekday storm is that there were more guests than usual at Tokyo's love hotels. Yes, this kind of unusual weather is the perfect excuse for some hanky panky. On April 3, many people were advised to leave work early but some took a different approach to seeking shelter from the forces of nature. While most girls would have been worrying about the state of their hair and clothes due to the wet and blustery weather, the excuses the guys ...

We could all use a boost sometimes and when that "boost" also provides pleasure, then everyone's a winner. This pair of Meiki Cock Rings can we worn together to bolster the pressure on your cock, making it bigger and better than ever.

Born in 1981, Mayumi Ono (小野真弓) is in danger of getting pushed out by the younger girls on the block -- namely, the AKB ladies and so on. But she's a tough lass and keeps on releasing photo books and DVDs, and has been recently making a slow transition to serious ...

We've talked before about Edo era Tokyo sex shops. Well, the locals also had their own sex dolls as well, called Azumagata Ningyo (吾妻形人形). After purchasing your "dutch wife" from Yotsumeya, you took the Tenga of its day back home for some fun. It was a crude device, something like a picture school, covered with a bundle of clothing, but made from Tortoiseshell material and so could be heated up with hot water for the natural touch. The piece de resistance was surely the "onahole", in this case a leather pouch. We should point out that there seems to be no serious historical ...

An otaku engineer has devised a system so that his lust for idols will not be hampered by the constraints of the 2D. Now he has created a poster that can respond to being "kissed", perfect for reenacting his fantasies of making out with his favorite fantasy girls. We love how the young guy who developed the poster is so flagrant about his motivations: I'm a big fan of pop idols, and I have posters of them in my room. It bugged me that the posters didn't move at all. We built this system because we thought, if a poster could move to match people's movements, that would be interactive ...
