It surveyed 3,616 men and women aged 20 to 49 around Japan on the theme of marriage and children online in early February.
30% of men in both their twenties and thirties answered that they had never had sex or been in a relationship. The numbers of people dated increases for men in their thirties compared with respondents in their twenties, but the proportion of people who with no experience of romance among the unmarried remains the same.
On the other hand, girls in their twenties with no experience of a relationship is ...
The car in front is a Toyota. Really?
Yes, Toyota has proved that otaku are valuable members of its customer base by creating an itasha decorated vehicle especially for the Anime Contents Expo 2013.
The itasha car is available for both the Prius and Vitz models, and has been customized with images from the Girls and Panzers anime.
The cars will also be sold from a showroom in Ikebukuro.
Otaku certainly have enough cash to buy AKB48 singles by the thousands -- but do they have the means to purchase a car? Toyota hopes ...
Here is the otaku hug pillow for the new generation.
A smartphone that is the size of a bed.
That's right, you can sleep on this phone, run on it, even live on it.
But otaku will be interested in how it can revolutionize the hug pillow.

The movie of the bizarre manga Hentai Kamen, about a hero who wears panties on his face, has released a suitably odd trailer.
Apparently Hentai Kamen's groin has the potential to block phone signals, obstruct camera lens and even blaze light to punish the selfish members of the audience.
It is actually a parody of the much-mocked "No More!" video that is featured before showings of movies in Japanese cinemas, warning people not to make illegal recordings of films.
Hentai Kamen is released in Japan on April ...

There are people with smell fetishes everywhere and we are not sure if there are more in Japan -- or whether the Japanese are simply much better at integrating their fetishes into products and social structures.
Either way, you can find a ton of pretty amazing smell fetish goods out there.

Three. Two. One. Lift off!
No, you haven't seen it all. If you think you have, you need to stay up to date with the new JAV Japanese porn releases.
Pussy Rocket Syringe Pump Challenge is an example of "injection bondage" in which five amateurs are tied up in a kind of barn and then have a "rocket" stuck up their vaginas, pumping them with spunk and other liquids.
The aim, apparently, is not vivisection but to see how much the ladies can "take" -- and whether the stuff will eventually spew out of their mouths or not.
There is almost three hours of this to... what, endure? ...

Miho Kanno, the much-loved actress and model, has announced she is getting married to fellow actor Masato Sakai.
They have apparently only been dating for three months but I guess, with Miho at 35 and he at 39, they know it's now or never!
Miho became famous very young and was also a singer in her early days. She is probably best known in the west for her appearance in the Takeshi Kitano film Dolls and the Mika Ninagawa film Sakuran (in which she appears briefly nude). Her face is a common sight in advertising as well.
She was also, along with Rie Miyazawa, one of the first ...
