The 25-year-old gravure idol Minami Haruna (春名美波) has just got a career boost with her first photo book release at the end of last month, plus she has made a splash in the weeklies by going nude for it.
The former race queen looks ravishing in these shoots, which range from a hotel room to a ship, a swimming pool, and what seems to be a random spot in the countryside.
"Harenchi na watashi" (Shameless Me) is a genuinely nude photo book, though it's not full-frontal nudity and it's a little disingenuous with the breasts nudity.
We get to see Haruna's butt in all its bare glory, but ...
The feminist activist Yumi Ishikawa made headlines worldwide in 2019 with her #KuToo campaign against wearing high heels in workplaces.
The actor and model also simultaneously made a lot of enemies, especially among male trolls, and is frequently attacked online. Some call her a hypocrite, since when she was younger, she posed for full-frontal nude shoots as a model and did at least one nude scene as an actor. (Personally, we don't see a problem here: you can do both feminist campaigning and sexually appealing modeling -- the two are not mutually exclusive -- and we all do things in our ...
It seems that Father Sexmas read our wish list!
Tenga, the Apple of the adult industry, is not content to sit on its well-deserved laurels, but is continuing to produce exciting new releases -- just in time for Christmas.
We spotted the somewhat strangely named Tenga Puffy mini series of masturbation toys and are excited to give them a try.
Essentially, they are visually cup-style masturbators (like the Tenga Cup or Flip Hole series) but with the tactility of gel sleeves (like, say, the recent Tenga Bobble series).
The cup is fully squeezable and employs the latest technology to reduce ...
The Netflix romance series First Love is based on two Hikaru Utada songs and stars Hikari Mitsushima and Rikako Yagi with male co-stars like Takeru Satoh.
Sadly, fans of Hikari Mitsushima will have to make do with the movie Life and Death On the Shore from a few years ago if they want nudity, as there's nothing on display here.
But the series does feature a short yet decent sex scene in episode five with the slinky model and showgirl Kily Shakley.
She is seen rapidly riding her lover in the cowgirl position, bucking her hips with serious aplomb, and showing off her cute butt and pierced ...
AKB48's power has waned of late and it takes a scandal to make us sit up and take notice (though the recent sex scandals involving Nana Okada and Yuiri Murayama, culminating in the former quitting the group, added a little frisson to an otherwise dull media landscape).
Instead, we continue to follow what happens to the many members of the supergroup after they graduate. Though the majority vanish into the post-idol ether, a lucky few carve out careers in acting or TV, some keep on doing modeling and gravure work, and a small yet notable number move into porn.

Attractive female sports athletes are a universal thing, of course, and such women can earn big bucks for sponsorship and modeling.
But there's a kind of culture in Japan of such female athletes of going the extra mile (especially if they are retired or not necessarily at the top of their field). And so you get lots of nude photo books by female athletes, from wrestlers to boxers, gymnasts, and swimmers.
The figure skater Mai Asada has pursued a lucrative side line in gravure, while the swimmer Miku Kojima and snowboarder Mero Imai went from nude shoots into porn.
The golfer Minase Ozawa ...
The controversial new porn law has been used for the first time in Japan to arrest someone.
A 50-year-old executive at a video production firm, Takashi Sumiya, was arrested on suspicion of not giving contract documents to three performers (aged twenties to fifties) between August and October, according to multiple media reports on December 6.
The Shinagawa resident had been initially arrested and charged with filming "indecent acts" and uploading them uncensored to a video sharing website, the US-based FC2 Content Market. Sumiya has apparently earned around ¥82 million doing this in six ...
One sure-fire way to promote condom usage is to use a sexy girl as your brand ambassador, right? Well, we're not sure. It will certainly get the punters thinking about sex but will they then reach for a prophylactic when things get going?
Condom usage in Japan is notoriously low, with men preferring to pull out (and often do a money shot on their partner, particularly their face -- a technique learned from Japanese porn). Obviously, this is not the safest method of having intercourse (and, we presume, for the female partner not the most comfortable way to end things).
So Sagami continues to ...
We're sure we are not alone in wondering about some of the more unusual consequences if we went under a bus tomorrow. For instance, who would continue doing this blog every day? And what would happen to our collection of Japanese porn?
In Japan, a country with one of the largest porn industries in the world and which is continuing to grow, this question is a major one for its aging population.
As gentlemen face the prospect of meeting their maker, and perhaps as they sex drive diminishes, they may no longer wish to keep that hoard of porn. Especially for elderly men who built up their stash ...
We've said it before and we'll say it again: the fashion magazine Anan is the place to go for jaw-dropping lingerie photo shoots.
Alright, obviously the gravure weeklies like Friday and Playboy deliver the goods on a regular basis, but Anan makes us sit up and take notice, either because it's a model or celebrity reinventing herself or just simply because of the sheer quality of the photo shoot.
It's been doing it for several years now, establishing a real reputation for sexy shoots with idols and models. Past cover shoots that made a big splash include: Kana Kurashima (2021), Ayaka Miyoshi ...
