Japanese netizens with beady eyes and dirty imaginations are speculating that former AKB48 idol Marie Watanabe and now dokusha model ("reader model") had a career as an amateur porn star.
Such "shiroto" adult video releases are, of course, professional but they are filmed in such a way that they look like a woman is being picked up off the street. Performers are often inexperienced or first-timers.
Given the pedigree of Yua Mikami (formerly Momona Kito) and various others, Marie Watanabe would hardly be the first AKB or related music group idol to work in adult video. She actually joins a ...
Unless you are one of the increasingly small number of fans who follow all the inns and outs of the current lineup of idols in AKB48, you may not know who Rena Kato is. We didn't. But we certainly do now.
She has released her sexiest shoot to date. While it's not exactly pushing the boundaries like her cohorts, not least Haruka Shimda, or former members of the group who have gone on to sexier climates, such as Natsumi Hirajima and Aika Ota (and that's before we even start talking about the ex-AKB48 girls who have gone into porn), it's a pretty good way to make an impression on would-be ...
The former AKB48 idol Natsumi Hirajima (Nacchan) has worked hard to establish herself as a solid gravure idol after leaving the group in 2012. And her efforts just got a boost with the release of a new photo book this month.
She actually left the group somewhat under the cloud of scandal, following the leak of photos on ex-member Rumi Yonezawa's private Twitter account showing images of them with men.
In one, Nacchan is in a bar with a lucky (and horny) guy, who had her in the classic kabe-don pose. She nonetheless returned briefly in 2013 for one of the AKB "elections" to ...
AKB48 is said to be phasing out swimsuit and lingerie photo shoots for its young members, perhaps out of fear of foreign accusations of peddling lolicon and child pornography as Tokyo prepares to for the 2020 Olympics.
There is speculation that the Akihabara-inspired supergroup, which builds followings for its female idols through swimsuit and underwear shoots as well as scantily clad music videos, is taming down its tactics.
Now members of high school age will apparently not be asked to reveal their flesh during photo shoots, it is reported.
A large proportion of AKB48's members ...
Since leaving AKB48, Mariya Nagao has been determined to carve out a career for herself by exploiting her assets.
While she hasn't gone quite as far of other AKB idols before her and done full nude or semi-nude shoots, lke Aika Ota recently, and certainly hasn't entered adult video like a prominent number of her fellow AKB and sister group graduates, she has shown us her killer body on more than one occasion. And what a stunner she is.
Now she has shown off her acting chops in a role that sees her do her first sex scenes. And judging by her performance, at any rate, she would seem to ...
Continuing the trend for former AKB48 idols trying to make a name for themselves post-AKB with a raunchy photo shoot, Aika Ota is the latest young lady to show us what she's got.
She follows in the glorious footseps of Mariya Nagao, Aki Takajo, Satomi Kaneko, and Natsumi Hirajima.
Just recently, Haruka Shimada preceded her imminent graduation with a sultry shoot that suggests she may be keen to go further in the near future.
Born in 1994, Ota graduated from AKB48 in April 2017 after time spend in both the main AKB48 group and its Fukuoka spin-off, HKT48.
Aika ...
AKB48 Team K co-captain Haruka Shimada has posed for a revealing photo shoot for the weekly magazine Flash.
Making her debut in the idol super group way back in 2009, the 24-year-old Shimada announced her graduation in April 2017 and her final live event is scheduled for the end of November. She clearly wants to go out with a bang, by which we mean a semi-nude one, judging by her latest photo shoot, which is certainly her sexiest yet.
The mouth-watering spread is one of her final official engagement and she seems to have done it either to reward her patient ...
Just a couple of days ago we were remarking on the AV debut of yet another minor idol as well as how several AKB48-affiliated idols have tried to enhance their post-AKB prospects by amping up their sex appeal.
We highlighted Aki Takajo, who released a semi-nude photo book, and Kana Kobayashi, who took things further in the clothes-shedding department, as well as Ami Tomite, who posed naked and also even did nude scenes for a film.
Another fine example would be Natsumi Hirajima, who has proved keen to show off her shapely body.
Mariya Nagao is another one. She has clearly positioned ...
Whatever happens to all those legions of minor idols?
Some get married and settle down. Some drift into prostitution, hosting, or something in between. Some just get regular jobs.
Some try to reinvent themselves as sexier versions of their previous jobs, such as Aki Takajo and Ami Tomite, and Kana Kobayashi. Another recent example is former Kamen Rider actress Rin Asuka (not to be confused with AV idol Rin Asuka), who posed nude for some ravishing shots.
A few go one step further and make a clean break into AV, as we have seen from several notable debuts by former members of AKB48 ...
Aki Takajo is the latest former AKB48 idol to strip off.
The 25-year-old, who also appeared with spin-off groups JKT48 and French Kiss, has made her debut as a gravure idol in an alluring semi-nude shoot. She left the AKB empire in 2016.
These ravishing photos are a taster of an upcoming photo book release in October.
AKB and its various sister groups not only mean there is a small army of music idols competing to make a name for themselves, but also an increasingly large army of ex-idols, who have fallen by the wayside and now have no public life other than a ...
