A series of mouse pads made to feel like you are moving your mouse between the generous busts of idol group AKB48's members has been causing shockwaves through the otaku and idol-loving community.
The mouse pads made their first appearances recently at game centers in claw game arcades.
The makers have stopped short at producing all 48 girls, instead just going for the four most popular: Yuko Oshima, Atsuko Maeda, Mariko Shinoda, and Tomomi Itano.
We think, looking at pics, that there has been some artistic license taken with the young lasses' busts, though!
Yuko Oshima seems to be ...
Erika Sawajiri gets down ‘n’ dirty with foreign men

We blogged about the latest raunchy Erika Sawajiri pics a few weeks back. People weren't shocked by Erika being almost naked (she does that a lot) -- but that she was posing a foreign man!
Now we find this video of the photo session -- which is even sexier! And there's not just one foreign man but multiple ones.
It had over 700,000 views when I looked...and I can see ...
Man, I should totally have thought of this first!!
Brian Ashcroft and Shoko Ueda have written Japanese Schoolgirl Confidential, "a must for anyone curious about the girls that dominate Japan’s pop culture." Well...I'm more than curious, does that count?!

It might be a bit too analytical for my tastes -- it seems to be talking about cultural and fashion symbols etc -- and my own re-write would definitely be v. heavy on pictures and ...
This cute girl can be yours to hold and touch on your iPhone or iPad for just 230 yen (about $2.70)!
The Oniichan app has three characters voiced by Himeko Sakuragawa, Arisu and Miruku Shirayuki respectively.
You have to find the "points" on the screen that open up different kinds of "Oniichan" siutations and responses. Each girl has 100 of these situations. Once you find 80 of them you can start playing with the next character.
It may not quite be as good as Love Plus but I'm still gonna download this ...
We all know about maid cafes. But what about us girls?
Sure, there are host clubs but some of us don't actually like guys with ridiculous orange hair cuts, up-themselves attitudes -- and then paying huge bills for the privilege!
Fear not, there are Otouto Cafe (Little Brother Cafe) for us ladies!
One example is the Cafe B's Prince, a concept cafe opened last year. The staff are actually girls but dressed as boys. This is basically more a cosplay cafe catering (no pun!) to fujoshi manga fans (um, semi-lesbians who like girls dressed as boys).
There is a whole spate of these ...
A new film explores the feelings of war guilt for Japanese people. Caterpillar is about a soldier, haunted by his experiences of torture and rape in China during the war, who returns to Japan a hero... but without any legs or arms.
Though he is torn apart internally by his feelings of guilt for his actions in Asia, he is still very keen of screwing his wife! She obliges like a good woman was expected back then (and still now!), despite the obvious practical difficulties of having sex with a severely disabled man.
The director, Koji Wakamatsu, actually got his break in the industry ...
This week I look at the very appropriately-named Ai (which means "love")...I am totally in love with this girl...

Doing it by candle light is romantic but can be a bit dangerous. Live flames and private parts do not make a good combination!
Here's a vibe that will get you into that romantic mood but without any need for matches.
The Luv looks like classy cosmetics, but check out the mini lamp at one end.
When in use the vibe lights up like the moon illuminating sakura cherry blossom at night. But this ain't a torch, ladies! It also of buzzes and vibrates to shake you into a moonlit sonata...
I normally find light-up vibes a bit tacky but this one is certainly very stylish, right down ...
Schoolgirl Complex Japanese student photo book art
August 16, 2010
/ Tadashi Anahori
Yuki Aoyama has a thing for school girls. Well...don't we all?!
But he takes photos of them. More precisely, he takes photos of their bodies, asses, legs and underwear. Anything but their faces. These are then published as "art".
Arguments of art vs. porn aside, we really, really like what he's doing! His latest photo book is called "Schoolgirl Complex", which pretty much summarizes my ...
Tokyo’s most famous pink cinema Ueno Okura Theater closes its doors
August 13, 2010
/ Tadashi Anahori
Remember back in June when Megumi blogged about the pink movie theater Okura in Ueno that was closing down (to re-open as a "modern" porn cinema, including for women patrons)?
Tokyo Reporter managed to capture the final day closing events (oh, why do I have a regular job?!). After five decades of providing the citizens what they want, the curtains came down on a landmark of porn history in Japan...
Here's a couple of sample photos but you can check out more on his ...
