Designer Jo Nagasaka (Schemata Architects) has made the kind of seats that we definitely want to have in the Tokyo Kinky office.
"Shibari" is a series of black and white foam seats inspired by the classic art of Japanese rope bondage.
Nagasaka is showing his creations at this year's Milano Salone. Note the rope keeping the bulging seat in shape. Design-wise, it's a nice contrast of smooth curving rubber and sharp jagged lines.
There seem to be four seats, each slightly different and in two colors.
The foam seats are covered in rubber coating, which is of course not ...
Be careful what is being poked into your genitals. You might just be losing your life blood... literally.
Though Kyoto might have a reputation for being the sophisticated old capital of Japan, there's plenty of kinkiness under the surface.
One of these is needle play. Tokyo Reporter had a nice, intriguing report on a recent episode involving a Kyoto bondage mistress.
Between June and September, Yuka Fujisawa, 43, is alleged to have used needles and syringes to take blood from the genitals of three male customers, including a 52-year-old office worker from Hyogo Prefecture, while ...
Saitama might well have a reputation as a boring suburb of Tokyo but some places aren't as dull as they sound.
Japan might also be a nation with 25% older population but the seniors can't be accused of being anything but active.
One man was recently arrested for being a little too vigorous, in fact. 64-year-old Yoshio Shimazaki of Utsunomiya in Tochigi had some urges and knew where to do go to sort it out. He went to Saitama.
In November 2011 at a love hotel in Kawaguchi City he gave a female high school student ¥20,000 and then had her perform bondage play with him. At the time the ...
Anyone who shares our love of the kinky gets our endorsement. And when it's a local, we are especially happy to tell the Web about them.
Japanese photographer Issei Suda has paid tribute to the kinky world of Japanese bondage and BDSM with a new photography book, "Rubber".
Place M gallery is exhibiting highlights of the new publication until December 9th.
Suda has frequently turned his lens on the female form and this new collection is perhaps his most erotic ...
Japan Fetish Ball, presented by the Tokyo Kink Society (no relation to this blog!), will be unveiling its unique display of alternative sexuality this Saturday at the Christon Cafe Tokyo in Shinjuku.
The big fetish party of the year for Tokyoites (maybe even the whole of Asia), this is the fifth anniversary event.
There are separate dance and music areas, plus of course a BDSM play corner.
It was first set up by a foreigner actually and is the largest "mainstream" (i.e. widely publicized) fetish event of its kind in the city.
It costs ¥3,500 to get in and there is ...
Now THIS is what I called manga. A heck of a lot better than all that One Piece crap, that's for sure!
Oki was a soldier in World War Two and afterwards he took up drawing SM and bondage manga. We don't know if it's just his innate character or his experiences in the war, but certainly his imagination is very, very fertile!
The results, as we're sure you agree, are magnificent.
Okay, Megumi, now it's time to recreate these scenes for ...
Possibly the only thing better than the sight of a gorgeous girl, bound in submission to serve her master's every depraved whim, is the knowledge that said image is being auctioned for a good cause to boot. Three months on, the impact of the earthquake/tsunami and subsequent nuclear fears that rocked Japan is still being sorely felt by many in the country, and one big-hearted group of kinky artists based in San Francisco's Bay Area has stepped up to the plate in a big way, raising funds for the relief effort the best way they know how: through taking dirty pictures.
The event, ...
Our friends over at Japan Bondage have recently done a full overhaul of their site and I've got to say, they are doing some pretty interesting things over there.
I personally like my women free to do as they please during sexy time, but when I took a look at the new site I started having second thoughts. I am a bit of a porn connoisseur with varying tastes, but whenever I heard about bondage, I had a really negative image. I had no idea that there was an entire artistic side to this type of erotica. About a year ago, Taro actually had the honor of meeting one of the headline bondage ...
Recently I've been getting into bondage. Though I still steer clear of some of the tougher toys out there (nose hooks!), I love putting on the gear. There's nothing quite like the feel of thick leather wrapping around your skin.
Girls always tell me I'm hot but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good hood. Tennosuke is a Tokyo leather studio that has a HUGE range of hand-made BDSM toys.
I've been trying them out. The newest on release is the "N Mask". Not sure what the "n" means -- "naughty"? "Nihilistic"? Either way, it made me look like an executioner. Needless to say, I took ...
We paid a visit recently to the small but friendly bondage gear studio Tennosuke in north Tokyo. Why is Tennosuke not more famous abroad? It's become legendary in the Japanese S&M scene!
Megumi has written before about the leather toys this great studio produces. They have cock collars, ankle cuffs, bondage costumes...all the works!
However, the owners told us they have since created a whole heap of brand quality new toys, including spanking pads, bondage cuffs, whips and more!
As you can see, the quality of the leather goods speaks for themselves. These toys could almost be for ...
