We recently wrote about Urara Uraraka's new "maternity nude" photo book, citing the precedent for such pregnancy shoots in Japan among celebrities and idols. One of the examples we mentioned was Angelica Michibata, who posed for a fairly modest (technically non-nude) one in 2018.
Now Angelica Michibata is back in the news with reports that she has divorced her husband, whom she married in late 2017 after she fell pregnant.
This is a big deal only because it would seem to bring to an end an unfortunate -- to say the least -- chapter of her life in which her ex-husband was arrested for ...
Like us, you may have noticed that Japanese porn star and stripper Urara Uraraka (うららか麗) had been quieter of late, both in terms of AV releases and her social media output.
In fact, she had retired from adult video and the nominal reason came out on November 3: she's now pregnant, due to give birth very soon.
And she's sensibly capitalizing on her new physical circumstances to make a nude photo book with shots of her pregnant body, which she is selling to fans online. Given how many tattoos she famously has on her body, we can only imagine how hot she now looks while ...
Evidence at last that the future is doomed. We are set to be surrounded by avatars, augmented reality companions, and "enhanced" partners. Nothing we will see or touch -- or even fuck -- will be what it actually is.
Are we exaggerating? Perhaps.
But then look at what FaceApp can do! The app was recently used to transform nine male Japanese reporters into cute Japanese women.
Before you start fapping at these cuties, be sure to check the originals!
Of course, FaceApp has been around for a few years and YouTube is full of deep fake videos. But this is some of the most compelling evidence we ...
We like to think we have experienced a few kinds of vaginas in our time. Every vagina is different, of course, and every girl sensitive in different ways.
But we don't think we've ever encountered an inner horn inside one before.
When browsing some of the latest adult toys on release in Japan, we were struck by the design of the Tenka Ikkaku Unicorn Horn Pussy Onahole.
If you're as frequent an onahole/masturbator user as us, you'll know that Ride Japan has a mini series of Tenka (roughly, "under heaven") toys.
This one, which you can order internationally from our friends at Kanojo ...
The Lower House election in Japan was held on Sunday -- yes, Halloween. The populace elected a bunch of ghouls and monsters to represent them.
One person who failed in their first bid to win a seat was the former gravure idol Chisato Morishita. Now aged 40 and still looking great, Morishita was trying to get elected in Miyagi as a candidate backed by the conservative LDP (who won the election overall). She got 61,410 votes (the ultimate winner got 81,033 votes, securing their ninth continuous term).
As we reported earlier in the year, she has been campaigning since the spring. (In Japan, ...
We normally find ourselves writing with glee about Japanese adult video's penchant for parody, in which the industry often reacts very quickly to events and cultural phenomena with pastiche porn par excellence.
But this time, JAV was beaten to the punch by porn makers in Taiwan.
Netflix's Korean hit Squid Game, whose sex scenes we have written about, has now inspired a porn rip-off on the East Asian island nation.
Details are slim, though news about the upcoming porn release is spreading online for the past week or so. With the original drama's themes of punishment and torture, it's ripe ...
There are those times when you go, "Oh, THAT person." And suddenly it all makes sense where you have seen someone before.
Mayu Ura (浦まゆ) is not a name that many, if any, people knew. But her face was familiar from a lot of adverts -- and frankly, some pretty striking, even downright weird, ones.
The 29-year-old is appearing in several commercials, with current contracts with 10 brands.
Well, she may struggle to land major advertising deals now, since she's taken a new step in her career with a nude gravure shoot for a Weekly Playboy (with an accompanying digital photo book). ...
The Korean TV show everyone is talking about and streaming is Squid Game but there's plenty more out there, especially because Netflix is heavily investing in Korean content.
One of them is My Name, which stars Han So-hee and Park Hee-see. It's a dark crime drama about a woman who joins a gang to avenge her father's death, and ends up going undercover in the police.
We were pleased to find it contained this sex scene with 26-year-old Han So-hee and Ahn Bo-hyun, though you have wait until the final episode for it. Alright, the most you get to see is some side boob and back, so this isn't ...
It's been a long, long wait, but one of our all-time favorites idols is back. Sure, she's older and wiser. Yet boy, does she still look great.
Former Morning Musume idol Maki Goto has been relatively quiet these past years, though launched a YouTube account in April 2020. The content of the videos is mostly pretty banal (trying food, makeup tips, etc.), but it was the first main indication that she was making a comeback. What has she been doing in the time since she left Morning Musume? In 2015, she married and started a family. She now has two children, though she admitted to having had an ...
We have by now learned to accept the innate contradiction that exists at the heart of Japanese porn: that the country has one of the largest, most varied industries in the world, and yet it also adheres to an interpretation of a century-plus-old obscenity law that says you cannot show genitalia. Hence JAV always has "mosaic" -- pixellation of the penis and vagina.
We have gotten used to this and no longer find it distracting, nor do we think it actually obscures the really important stuff (i.e., the beautiful face and body of the porn star).
Others, though, disagree and there exist ...
