/ Tadashi Anahori
The television announcer and model Kasumi Mori has become a high-class hostess.
Well, kinda. She pretended to be one to film a TV show.
Mori is riding high now from lots of media appearances and exposure as she tries to follow the likes of announcer-turned-actress Minami Tanaka and break out into the mainstream as a model and general celebrity.
The 28-year-old recently released her debut photo book that featured some pretty sexy shots and has been a minor hit, it seems.
In the show, which was broadcast on TV Asahi (and with the full version available on Abema), Mori wore an alluring ...

The model Yukina Kinoshita continues to pursue an unusual path following her scandal, divorce (after multiple allegations of adultery), and losing her agency.
She has released a nude photo book and focused on social media channels like YouTube to keep herself in clover, her celebrity lifestyle apparently unaffected by her complete disappearance from fashion magazine covers.
The 36-year-old mother of two, who is currently dating 30-year-old soccer player Hidetoshi Miyuki, is gradually working more in the mainstream media and recently made an appearance on a TV show called Ai no Hyena on the ...

Akane Takiyama (瀧山あかね) is the latest Japanese TV announcer trying to forge a concurrent career in gravure.
She works as an announcer for shows on ABEMA (she joined the streamer in 2018) and is a former NMB48 "research student" (in 2011 and 2012, while in high school). The 29-year-old has now branched out into gravure with a cover shoot for Weekly Playboy that is making waves and rapidly expanding her fandom.

/ Tadashi Anahori
Ex-Nogizaka46 idol Ami Nojo has a sex scene in the second season of the drama The Night I Became a Beast (Watashi ga kemono ni natta yoru), which began streaming on Abema Premium this month.
The 27-year-old was a member of Nogizaka46 from 2011 to 2018, but now focuses on acting.
Fans will be happy about seeing Ami Nojo's nude back and the scenes of her in her underwear, though anyone looking for actual nudity or more explicit scenes of her will go away disappointed. It seems she, or her management, isn't ready to cross that line yet.
The anthology series The Night I Became ...

/ Tadashi Anahori
The 22-year-old Ryoka Oshima (大島涼花) has put her past in the idol group AKB48 firmly behind her and made a bold foray into TV drama acting.
In the new erotic anthology series The Night I Became a Beast, broadcast on online streaming channel Abema Premium (formerly AbemaTV), Oshima plays a lead role in the first episode.
She is shown masturbating in a toilet and also in various love scenes where she is ostensibly naked with a co-star, Reiya Masaki, in the bath or in bed. Though seen in close-up riding him cowgirl at one point, the episode seems to feature no actual ...
It used to be that everyone abroad thought Japanese TV was wacky because of the big-budget, outlandish game and challenge shows.
But in fact, the craziest stuff these days tends to happen on non-terrestrial channels, especially late at night. The live octopus tentacle sex reenactment broadcast recently being a prominent example! And remember the hand job karaoke? We're pretty sure the participants won't forget it in a hurry!
Trust the online TV channel AbemaTV, which also likes to throw in nude sex scenes into its drama shows, to push the boundaries.
Its show Momoiro Game Channel ...
Are love hotels no longer the destination for Japanese couples on Christmas Eve?
January 30, 2018
/ Tadashi Anahori
We're late to blog this but we've just come across this Abema TV report from the end of December about love hotels and Christmas.
Christmas in Japan is not a family event: it's an event celebrated by couples on Christmas Eve, which usually means a romantic meal somewhere, followed by sex either at home or at a love hotel.
But is this still the case?
Abema TV went a-wandering on Christmas Eve in Shibuya -- home to Tokyo's famous "love hotel hill" -- and found that many hotels were not as full as you might expect. One hotel, they found, was two thirds empty. They spoke to some ...
Japanese movies rarely have sex scenes of note, it must be said, so the good ones stand out.
Japanese television is pretty tame, the occasional sexy scene not withstanding. But AbemaTV, an online streaming channel, has different standards.
Last year it broadcast its first original drama series, Tokumei Kakaricho Tadano Hitoshi, showing us Shoko Takahashi (formerly the gravure idol Shoko Takasaki) and Yua Mikami (ex-SKE48 idol Momona Kito) in the buff. All right, they are two of the top AV stars in Japan today, so we've already seen everything they have to offer and more. But it's still nice ...
Jukujo gravure idol Sayaka Isoyama has had sex with less than five men
October 13, 2017
/ Tadashi Anahori
On a recent AbemaTV show, Ogiya Hagino Busu Terebi, thirtysomething jukujo Sayaka Isoyama made an astonishing confession.
Despite her popularity among men throughtout the nation, the charmingly curvy Japanese gravure idol and television tarento told the studio audience that her sexual experience was quite low.
Blushing red, the 34-year-old admitted to having slept with less than five people.
Her surprised co-guests on the show couldn't believe it. She then went further, explaining that she only has sex with people she dates properly and that she hasn't had so many ...
Here's something that may restore your faith in Japanese TV.
Tokumei Kakaricho Tadano Hitoshi is a TV series based on the manga by Kimio Yanagisawa. It has already been adapted into a TV drama once before but now a new version is streaming on AbemaTV, an online streaming channel. It is the channel's first original series.
Japanese TV is famously weird, but in terms of nudity is pretty modest and prim. But satellite TV and online TV is not so restricted and can show nudity and sex scenes, not to mention strange shows where porn stars jerk off men on camera or telethons where men line up ...
