The Taimanin is one of the most successful recent eroge franchises. The series by LiLiTH has spawned various spin-offs about the sexy exploits of near-future female ninjas (kunoichi) Asagi Igawa, Sakura Igawa, Yukikaze Mizuki, and more.
This includes many adult toys like masturbators and lubricants, made by PPP.
It has also been adapted by adult video studio ZIZ (since at least 2014) into a series of porn releases starring the likes of Yuki Hatano, Mei Matsumoto, and Kaho Shibuya, with tentacle sex and lesbian themes.
And now comes the news that Taimanin will next become an idol group, ...
'Tis the season for celebration, after all, and Tenga has reached a major milestone.
And a very profitable one at that: 100 million sales of its Tenga Cup series.
The Tenga Cup 100 Million Sales Commemoration Set is a special release to celebrate this phenomenal achievement.
As regular readers know, we love writing about Tenga -- sometimes called the Apple of the Japanese adult industry -- and couldn't resist this story. We have grown old with Tenga: the Cup came out first in 2007 and has morphed into so many versions over the years since. Along with the Tenga Egg, the Cup secured the ...
Fans were very pleased by Maki Goto's new photo book, "ramus," in which the 36-year-old former Morning Musume idol rewarded those of us who had waited long for her comeback by posing nude.
Alright, let's be honest, there was also a bit of disappointment. As great as mother-of-two jukujo Maki looks, she was ultimately "only" revealing her naked butt and side boob. And as fans will know, she did as much already 10 years ago.
Fortunately for anyone disappointed, a netizen has stepped in to take things further and apply their photo-editing skills to the very good purpose of revealing Maki ...
Another week, another chikan story.
As regular readers to this blog will know, groping on public transport is a serious problem in Japan, so much so that it has its own name (chikan) and tactics to deal with it -- primarily women-only carriages.
This doesn't seem to stop the perpetrators, though, but we also seem to spot an increasingly number of reports now about them being caught or having to escape in outlandish ways.
On the morning of Wednesday, December 15, an alleged male groper tried to evade justice by jumping from the tracks at Minami-Senju Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line ...
One of the great things about leading Japanese adult brand Toy's Heart is how it takes inspiration from recent social trends and buzzwords.
Two of its latest pocket pussy releases do just that, and do it with serious aplomb.
The Lolita G-Spot Mass Production Girl is based on the the idea of a ryosangata joshi. Don't worry if you weren't familiar with this Japanese phrase, we weren't either. It literally means a "mass production girl" and refers to the identical-looking young ladies who wear the same kinds of clothes and accessories. Such ryosangata joshi are often found in places like ...
Idol-of-the-moment Kazusa Okuyama has released a new digital photo book, Passion, and, judging from the preview images we have seen, it's yet another stunner.
Shot by Tim Gallo, it was released by Weekly Playboy. Okuyama dazzles in purple-pink lingerie and a black dress that shows off her slender legs and alluring back.
The 27-year-old Aoyama native has also just released a new calendar. This digital photo book follows on from her third print photo book (shot by Tomoki Kuwajima), which came out from Shogakukan on September 30. That's three print photo books in as ...
Japan's National Institute of Infectious Diseases announced the grim news on December 14 that cases of syphilis were at a historic high in the country.
This year's number of reported syphilis cases hit 7,134 from January to December 5. The number is the highest since measurements began.
Syphilis is increasing nationwide, though Tokyo, Osaka, and surrounding areas saw a particular surge in reported cases: Tokyo led the pack with 2,226 cases, followed by Osaka with 761 and Aichi with 379. In terms of per-population rates, though, the rural prefectures of Kochi, Okayama, and Miyazaki had the ...
We've all felt horny at work. Some of us have snuck off to the toilets to rub one out. Perhaps a few of us have even thought about getting intimate with a coworker.
Ever fewer of us have actually done that.
But the proportion is perhaps higher among firefighters.
The Nagoya municipal firefighting bureau, reports Kyodo, has suspended a male fight fighter for four months and a female colleague for three months for having sex at work during their sleep break or after their shifts from around last October to this March. The 28-year-old man and 25-year-old woman were apparently reprimanded for ...
Given the mosaic (pixelization) in Japanese porn and the extent of censorship in mainstream movies, it can be hard to forget about what you can't see: pubic hair.
But that is one of the things so shocking about "hair nude" full-frontal shoots, especially the older ones in the 1980s and 1990s: not only is the celebrity laid bare in all her feminine glory, you also see how hairy she is downstairs. (Case in point, the stunning, yet shaggy, Saki Takaoka.)
Japanese women are often fastidious about shaving, from their arms and legs to their armpits and faces. But by contrast, they have ...
Lucky bags (fukubukuro) are staples of Japanese retail during the New Year period. You get a grab bag not aware of its exact contents, but knowing it contains a set of stuff from a certain brand or series with a total value usually more -- sometimes much, much more -- than what it is being sold for.
Pretty much all levels of retail -- from luxury department stores to humble neighborhood shops -- offer lucky bags, and the adult industry is no exception.
Individual brands (particularly Tama Toys) put together value packs each December, as do certain retailers. They are great ways to get your ...
