One of the hotter members of AKB48 (a group full, with the notable exceptions of Rie Kitahara and Haruna Kojima, of essentially banal looking girls stuffed down us unfortunate Japanese's throats daily with frequently sickening consequences), Yuka Masuda, has been forced to quit her "illustrious" career after it was revealed she was sleeping another minor celebrity, ISSA.
The couple met while working together in a musical earlier in the autumn.
Her agency continues to deny her relationship with ISSA but she has as good as admitted her abhorrent sin of having sex by announcing her sudden ...
We don't wish to stoke any more international anger between Japan and Korea, but we just had to blog this when we read about it.
The December issue of tabloid rag SAPIO is reporting that, while it is not a fact that Korean men have the smallest of cocks, it is smaller than normal.
Just 9cm is apparently what's been bandied around online.
I personally have no experience with Korean men so cannot say either way.
On the whole, they seem more macho than their Japanese counterparts, so this news is surprising, to be honest.
A Spanish penis enlargement company has done a "survey" ...
This week's lavish hottie is Mina Asakura (麻倉みな)...
Mina was born in 1989 and is front Kanagawa, the region just to the west of Tokyo.
Ostensibly a fashion and Gravure model, she has recently been working as an actress.
She can speak good English too.
Is Mina the perfect Japanese girlfriend or ...
That's according to the bijin-JAPAN Grand Prix, which judged 51 girls appearing in the Bijin Tokei website from 18 areas around Japan.
The winner was Mayumin from Kyoto.
Over 50,000 girls were included in the initial round, all ladies who have been featured in the Bijin Tokei website, where cute girls hold up signs telling you the time.
A simple idea but a winning one, there are widgets you can get for your desktop and blog, as well as apps. It has also spawned numerous spin-offs.
Here are the runners-up.
Yuka from Saitama came in at number 2.
While Makotan from ...
Following reader Uego Munst's recent request, we've put together a collection of some Japanese "announcer" (TV presenter) hotties.
First up, everyone's woman of the moment -- Yuko Aoki (b. 1983), who recently got married is rumored to be getting married.
Yoshie Takeuchi (b. 1986) is apparently super popular in China right now and with her chipper, girl-next-door looks, we can see why.
Tomoko Kogou was born in 1978 and works for NHK. She's more the thinking man's crumpet kind of lady.
A younger lady is Mai Yamagishi (b. 1987), a TV presenter with a touch of the gyaru ...
Korea has the infamy of "the nation of prostitution" and it gets even stronger as it exports its biggest asset (and no, we don't mean Samsung).
Along highways you used to find lines of sex shops with open windows like the chon no ma you get in Ueno, Kawasaki or in Osaka.
In the old days Korean sex shops used to be a hair salon but in the back room there would be "extra" services. However, since 2004 these kinds of places have disappeared. Likewise there used to be places that on the surface appear to be tea rooms that "delivered" things but with more on the menu that just ...
Sometimes you think you've seen them all. But you haven't.
How about a balloon fetish, anyone?
Do you like the rub of blown-up leather producing that sound as it makes contact with skin? And it's female skin, young nubile Japanese girls -- or larger ladies with plenty of flesh to wrap around the balloons.
It seems there are enough looners in Japan to merit an online group called the JBFC, or Japan Balloon Fetish Club.
From what we can make out a very cursory glance, the fetish scene here seems to be more passive -- watching girls with balloons as opposed to being in the ...
Love hotels. Sites for naughty sex between adulterous couples, couples who still live at home, and of course plenty of liaisons with prostitutes too.
A little known fact is that one in four occupants of a love hotel is now said to be over 65, and the love hotels are adapting to these seniors.
With the Baby Boomer generation hitting retirement, seniors mean big business for everyone.
Seniors, though, naturally like to take things easily, so many hotels are offering longer versions of the so-called two or three-hour "rest" periods, so seniors can get the daytime cheap rate at their own ...
We've been a big fan of curvy 31-year-old Mitsu Dan for some time. She has burst into the limelight recently, despite being at least ten years older than many regular idols -- no doubt mostly thanks to her wonderful figure and perchant for extremely sexy photo shoots.
Several male celebrities have been professing their adulation for the voluptuous sex queen and she has even made her film debut now (admittedly in a soft core flick, it seems, where she shows plenty of flesh).
She has also talked cheekily in a recent interview with a Japanese weekly tabloid magazine about her ...
That friendly face you see on NHK is not as friendly as you might thing.
Takeshige Morimoto, a well-known TV anchor for the national broadcaster, was arrested on Wednesday after he allegedly groped a young university student on a crowded train in Tokyo.
The feisty 23-year-old girl was on the Tokyu Denentoshi line, which serves Shibuya and the nicer suburbs of Tokyo, when she felt some fumbling hands on her breasts.
She held onto her groper -- which is known as chikan in Japan, perhaps the only nation on earth that even has signs on trains reminding passengers that it is a crime ...
