Rikako Inoue (井上理香子), a former member of the now-defunct idol group Fairies, is to make her porn debut as Yotsuha Kominato (小湊よつ葉).
Fairies disbanded in 2020, after which Inoue (who was a member of the group throughout its roughly nine-year run) nominally retired from the entertainment industry and became a company employee for two years.
However, the 25-year-old officially adopted the name Yotsuha Kominato in March this year and returned to gravure with a shoot for Weekly Playboy and tie-in 57-page photo book.
This month, she released the music video for a solo song, ...
Schoolgirl-in-a-drain adult video seems more like horror than porn
May 17, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Japanese adult video often pushes the envelope, gamely taking on themes and subject matters ordinarily considered unsuitable or out of bounds for porn. It's one of the reasons the industry is so creative and broad in Japan.
Some people, though, are speculating if this example is not going too far -- or simply too eager to test the limits of taste and fetish as to render it unappealing to most audiences. Plus ça change!
A new porn release directed by Migiwa Ota and staring Mai Kagari seems, some are saying, more like a kind of horror movie.
The behind-the-scenes pictures, at any ...
Now this is what we call going out with a bang. Top Japanese adult video star Shoko Takahashi has retired from porn, as announced in April, and released her final title (MIDV-099) this month.
Of course, JAV is more than just videos, and Takasho has also put out an array of tie-in toys over the years, from onaholes to lubes and even vibrators.
To complement her last ever porn release, she has teamed up with top adult brand EXE to produce the Japanese Real Oppai Shoko Takahashi Breasts. Given that Takasho's greatest asset is her chest, and her unusual inverted nipples, this is a no-brainer ...
Kurumi Nakayama nude sex scenes in Naked Angel: The Red Room
May 13, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
The relatively little-known actress Kurumi Nakayama (中山来未) has several nude scenes in the aptly titled Naked Angel: The Red Room, a film released in Japan in 2021 and based on a short story by Edogawa Ranpo.
There are several sex scenes, including one in a public restroom, and other scenes that apparently required Nakayama to be nude, though the final one has a bloody end involving a pair of scissors. The slim and slinky, modestly chested Nakayama shows off a lot of her body in these scenes, including a shot of her anus as she leans over her lover in the cowgirl ...
Police arrests from raid on Japan’s largest happening bar
May 12, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
We fondly remember the days when it was relatively easy to visit happening bars. Sadly, those times when such establishments were widely known and could be frequented in central areas like Shinjuku or Shibuya now feel distant, largely due to a police crackdown that closed many down or scared others off.
Further proof that the police won't tolerate businesses that allow members of the public to have sex with each other appeared this month.
Media reported on May 9 that police had busted a Shibuya happening bar called Sleeping Beauty.
An incredible eleven separate police districts as well ...
Yuka Kuramochi makes post-pregnancy gravure comeback with five-idol mega shoot
May 11, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Yuka Kuramochi has returned to gravure with her first shoot since she gave birth to a child in 2021.
Kuramochi, who is married to a very successful esports player, chose to make a splash with her comeback. After all, landing a shoot with Yuka Kuramochi alone would be sure to shift copies, but Weekly Playboy elected for a whammy for its May 23 issue.
Joining Kuramochi are Jun Amaki, Fumina Suzuki, Saki Yanase, and Saki Suzuki. So we get five of the most voluptuous ladies in the industry, all in one shoot.
And what a shoot, as the preview images and the behind-the-scenes pics reveal! It's ...
Hajime Kinoko ties models to outside of building for Harajuku shibari rope bondage installation
May 10, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Shibari, the Japanese art of rope bondage, is a sexual subculture, something confined to certain clubs and establishments, right? Wrong.
As one event proved, shibari (also known as kinbaku) is also very visible in the streets of Tokyo.
On May 7, Hajime Kinoko, probably the most successful and well-known shibari rope artist in Japan, created an outdoor installation on the walls of a venue in Cat Street, a shopping street in Harajuku, central Tokyo.
The installation involved him and his team suspending five female models (one of whom was Lisa M, aka Lisa Mizuno) in shibari positions on the ...

Used face masks still in demand, but lawyers warn of risks
May 5, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
As reported recently on this blog, one of the unexpected outcomes of the coronavirus pandemic has been how the ubiquity of face masks has merged with an existing fetish for used underwear to beget a whole new brand of the adult market: used face masks.
However, though schoolgirls and housewives are apparently benefitting financially from the demand, some have warned that used face masks carry serious hygiene risks.
Japanese social media, especially Twitter, offers plenty of examples of used masks for sale, sometimes with "kiss marks." Posters tend to include photos of the stains from ...
Ex-Morning Musume Miki Fujimoto declined nude photo book, did nude stage role
May 4, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Former Morning Musume idol Miki Fujimoto these days does a bit of acting and appears on television shows as a tarento.
Now aged 37 and married with two children, Mikitty is back in the news again because she went on a radio show on April 30 and mentioned that she was previously offered to do a nude photo book after she left the idol group in 2007.
Unlike fellow Morning Musume alumni Asuka Fukuda and Maki Goto, she turned down the offer. The proposed photo book would not have been a hair nude, full-frontal style, but apparently was to be shot from behind in a more sophisticated way.
