When Anri Sakaguchi announced her marriage to a transgender man in June, it felt like just the latest chapter in the saga of a troubled celebrity, which had already encompassed arrests, a stint in porn, and time spent working as a hostess, stripper, and call girl.
Well, that sudden announcement that attracted a lot of attention quite quickly (in part because of Sakaguchi's previous notoriety, because she still enjoys a reasonable following, and because her husband is transgender) seemed troubled early on as Sakaguchi took to social media to vent her frustration about her new life ...
Most of the idols who form the hundreds-strong ranks of the Sakamichi and 48 Group music groups soon disappear into obscurity after graduating. A mere handful carve out careers as fashion models, TV celebrities and tarento, and actors. Others go on to build careers in porn.
One way to mark a break from the "pure and innocent" idol world they previously inhabited is to up the ante in choosing acting roles, such as ones that involve (shock!) kissing -- or even sex scenes.
Former Nogizaka46 idol Marika Ito (伊藤万理華) is perhaps now trying her luck at pursuing this latter path.
Before ...
Japanese adult toy makers are never one to let a commercial opportunity pass. When a toy proves a hit, they usually follow up with a similar one -- or several.
But this time, the follow-up is not just a quick cash-in but a complementary item that makes so much sense. So much so, we wonder why they didn't release the original and follow-up together in the first place.
Back in February, we introduced readers to one of the most novel toys to hit the market in recent months: the Ashikoki Schoolgirl Footjob Toy.
In a nutshell, it's a foot that you use to rub yourself off. It even comes with a ...
At Tokyo Kinky, we hope we don't moralize. We like to stay as open as possible, even -- and perhaps especially -- when the tastes do not match our own. And given the kind of content we share, we are hardly qualified to get on a high horse and start preaching to the masses.
As such, it is with a touch of bemusement that we are watching a dispute unfold, first on Twitter and now in the mainstream media.
An article titled "I am not alone -- we are all alone: Using masturbation as an ethnographic method in research on shota subculture in Japan" appeared in the respected academic journal ...
It seems like everyone is doing nude shoots these days, from Nana Asakawa to Kyouka, Mariya Nagao, and Aoi Fujino.
Nude shoots can be a great way to make a comeback or boost a flagging career, or even, as in the case of Kyouka, go out with a bang.
Multilingual gravure idol and actress Manami Shindo, however, has already set a precedent in past photo shoots in 2021 that showed off her naked butt and (under sheer/wet clothing) breasts. Those shoots marked Shindo's full entry into the world of gravure -- and what an entrance it was.
Now the 30-year-old has decided to go one step further and ...
So you've already got your breast-shaped fortune and your handwritten schoolgirl love letter.
The latest item available from Japan's capsule toy vending machines (gachapon or gashapon), which usually sell collectibles for kids, is a mini denma massager vibrator.
As regular readers or avid Japanese adult video viewers will know well, the denma "wand" is a massager-style vibrator that is popular with couples due to its wide, flexible head that can run all over the most sensitive parts of a female body.
Denma toys come in all shapes and sizes, plus there are various accessories for attaching ...
The La Bocca Della Verita series of blowjob masturbators is back. Inspired by the Bocca della Verità marble mask in Rome, this bestselling series of toys by Magic Eyes is also known as the Mouth of Truth. But unlike the original Mouth of Truth in Italy is purported to do, these won't bite off your hand (or other appendage) if you're a liar.
It has returned in two new "mini" versions that offer either a "hard bite" or "soft bite" sensation. If you loved the Ochobo-guchi toy, the first "mini" version of the Mouth of Truth, you're gonna love these updates.
Like with all previous ...
Most of our readers will be regular Japanese adult video fans and perhaps serious connoisseur. No doubt they will already know of June Lovejoy, the American woman who frequently plays curvy English teachers.
Lovejoy is one of several foreign actors currently active in the industry. Others include Melody Hina Marks, while past stars include Leroy Clala, Olivia Kaoru Rurouni, and the wildly successful Rola Misaki.
We wanted to share some highlights from a recent in-depth interview with Lovejoy, published in the Tokyo Weekender.
Naturally, Lovejoy (who is queer and uses they/them as pronouns) ...
Curvy, busty gravure idols are nothing new. But it can still make you stop and sputter when you stumble over a provocative shoot.
Take Aoi Fujino (藤乃あおい), whose bust is meant to measure a whole meter! Her latest photo shoot is nude -- or at least about as close as it is possible to be without being nude.
Making her 23rd birthday, Fujino shows off her attractive body by posing with her arms over her breasts (the classic tebura pose) and a hand covering her crotch. Sometimes the only thing preserving her modesty is her long hair or soap suds rubbed over her wet body.
But when it ...
When we talk about porn and sex, we tend to reach for heat-related metaphors. That guy or girl is a hottie. The sex was hot. And so on. Being cold or frigid is usually a bad thing. Right? Apparently not.
The latest example of the weird and wonderful subgenres of fetish porn that occupies a surprisingly large section of the Japanese adult video market is this release from Rocket (RCTD-482), which came out on July 21.
It features a schoolgirl who becomes frozen -- as is rock-solid frozen -- during sex and then gradually loses the ability to move her body. She ends up a kind of blue ...
