Marry your virtual girlfriend. Sounds tempting, right?
That's the concept behind a promotional event for the new virtual romance game Niizuma Lovely x Cation ("niizuma" or "niidzuma" means "new wife").
In a development that is unlikely to reverse Japan's declining birth rate any time soon, the game makers Hibiki Works has announced a virtual reality wedding ceremony on June 30th in Tokyo. Male fans can actually become grooms, wearing VR headsets so they experience the bliss of "marrying" their favorite character.
Formal dress is required, as befitting your special day, though ...
As we prepare for the joys that await the adult world thanks to virtual reality, you can currently get a taster of the kind of things we might see a lot more of soon.
Friday, the weekly tabloid published by Kodansha, has got together with former gravure model and now top porn star Shoko Takahashi (Shoko Takasaki) to produce three "virtual reality" scenes featuring the busty lady in the nude.
The 3D scenes are viewable in three dimensions: view them here, here and here. Use your cursor to move around and find Shoko waiting to entertain you. We assume this promotion is only available ...
The adult industry in Japan is giddy right now about the possibilities for virtual reality.
We have already seen lots of events and ideas emerge, though no major releases yet.

Forget the PlayStation VR, you can get even better virtual reality girlfriend experiences from adult game makers like Illusion.
Their VR Kanojo is a new Japanese eroge or dating game for Windows, Oculus Rift CV1 and HTC Vive, and it's currently making waves with netizens who have tried it.
The game places you in a bedroom with a nubile Japanese schoolgirl, which immediately recalls the controversial 2014 Project Morpheus demo, Summer Lesson. That game was criticized as "creepy" and ended up being withdrawn from the Tokyo Game Show. Illusion has no such qualms, it seems.
It's going on ...
When the PlayStation VR was previewed in 2014, it immediately generated controversy for its "creepy" schoolgirl demo content and ended up being cancelled from that year's Tokyo Game Show.
Now that the console is released this month, perhaps we can assume Sony has firmly put that unfortunate episode behind it?
Not necessarily, since the demo -- Bandai Namco's Summer Lesson -- was actually released as a commercial game, and that means players are going to find and advertise less savory ways to enjoy it.
Which is what this Japanese YouTuber, who made an instructive video to tell ...
We continue our reports about Tokyo Game Show 2016.
We are a little late on these reports but we were too busy to post.
TGS always walks that fine line between the exciting big releases of the gaming industry and veering off into creepy (but to us, intriguing) world of virtual dating and sex.
Here is certainly one example.

The developers M2 Co. Ltd have created ...
More future sex was on display over the weekend at Adult VR Expo 2016.
Following the Adult VR Festa at Akihabara that was so popular the venue had to shut down, the same organizers put together this new event on August 27th at a secret location open only to invited members of the press.

Adult virtual reality has been one of the major stories of the year, from Japan's first adult VR event in Akihabara to a virtual omorashi system that allows you to experience wetting yourself.
Even the recent Comiket was not safe from the influence of adult virtual reality.
First seen at the Akihabara event, the VR sexroid Nanai -- a blow-up doll that you can have sex with as an anime girl in virtual reality -- was showcased on Sunday to the curious public, fresh from enjoying the hordes of slender and sexy cosplayers outside in the blazing heat. (We're not really sure if Nanai ...
As we now know, what was touted as Japan's first adult virtual reality was so popular (and disorganized) earlier this month that it had to be closed down.
We were one of the many unlucky souls lining up outside that summer day in Akiharara, hoping to get in and see what the future of sexuality might look like.
With the glories of the internet we were able to find some of the treats we missed.
And here is another.
Called Chroma Key AR, which uses a smartphone and augmented reality (AR) technology to combine a digital image of a girl that displays on the screen with a ...
