Sometimes you just can't resist that hottie on the train. And combine cute girls on public transport in Japan with fiery Italian blood -- and you have a recipe for trouble. On March 4th, Wakayama police arrested an unemployed 40-year-old Italian man for kissing a 21-year-old Japanese girl sitting on a train in the prefecture. There is no indication that the two knew each other. The Italian stallion admits the kiss but claims there was no malice. "The kiss was intended as a greeting. I didn't think it would break Japanese laws," pleaded the European. It's true that in Europe ...

If you're going to be a train groper and run the risk of getting arrested, go the whole hog. That's the lesson from this story, it seems. Choose a young, hot victim and don't give up without a fight! Monday is never a fun day. The weekend is over and people are not in the best of moods in the morning trek to the office. But Tokyo morning rush-hour trains were delayed this Monday for 19 minutes -- a lifetime in Tokyo. Why? Because a man had groped a high school student. That's a daily occurrence on Tokyo trains, so much so the train companies have introduced women-only carriages on many ...

No sooner had we blogged an odd story about a bus driver trying to kiss his lone teenaged passenger in Tokushima, then along comes another peculiar tale of groping on the subway. Two Chiba residents have been arrested by Tokyo police on suspicion of trying to grope a woman on the Tokyo subway during the morning rush hour. The men -- a 24-year-old Tokyo court assistant and a 39-year-old Mitsubishi Tokyo UFJ Bank employee -- are accused of both groping the same woman on a subway train at around 8am on September 25th. It is unknown if the two knew each other or how they came to ...

We all know that trains are far from the safest places for women in Japan, so full of would-be gropers the train companies have had to introduce women-only carriages in recent years. Well, now you can add buses to your list of danger zones. Why? Because police arrested a middle-aged bus driver for trying to kiss a female passenger. The 54-year-old Kunihiko Nakanishi apparently attempt to plant a smooch on the forehead of a teenaged girl in March this year. Nakanishi is alleged to have stopped the bus he was driving mid-route while there were no other passengers on board except ...

A trip to the dentist can often be a nerve-wracking thing, especially if your pearlies need some painful work done. But this pervy dentist in Ichinomiya City in Mie Prefecture did little to allay his patient's fears. Rather, apparently he was just intent on having a good time for himself. The 53-year-old took a charm to the twentysomething woman who came to his hospital to get her teeth fixed. He told a dubious story that "massaging your chest will help the alignment of your jaw" and promptly took her to side-room in his clinic. Whether she was naive or just scared, we don't ...

We often talk about chikan on Tokyo Kinky. There is a strange subculture in Japan where certain men think it's okay to grope women on trains. In fact, there are even certain "clubs" that organize these kinds of mass groping sessions on public transport. But if you get found out it can bring your fantasies crashing down. That's what happened to one 39-year-old man on the Odakyu Odawara line when it was passing through Kawasaki, just outside Tokyo on Thursday night. Around 9 pm a woman on the train caught his hands wandering and exposed him. The humiliated man, whether to try to ...

Chikan. AKA groping. It's a real Japanese tradition. But that doesn't mean you have to be Japanese to do it. When in Rome, as they say. Now a foreigner has been caught copping a feel on a young Japanese woman on a JR train. Not only was this foreigner a British "gentleman" but he was also... a preacher! Apparently this man of the cloth is 48 but was doing most unholy things to the legs and breasts of the 22-year-old female office worker sitting next to him one day on a train in Shiga on September 14th. This wasn't just a little fondle. This was a 25-minute afternoon groping ...

You may wonder why there is so much chikan (groping) in Japan, especially on the trains... Well, one answer could lie in the fact that even respected and veteran male TV presenters feel that it is okay to grope their female co-host's ass live on television! Yes, that's what Mino Monta did. See the video below. You can just make out his much younger co-host trying to keep his hands off her. Bizarrely it appears to be during a segment about a community affected by the 2011 Tohoku disaster, which wouldn't normally be the kind of story that would inspire men to start groping the ...

Back in May we reported on the incredible story -- actually one of the most intriguing things we have ever heard -- of a chikan incident on a Wakayama train in which a woman was groped by two men who believed that the woman had asked them to do it via an online forum. In fact, she had done no such thing and they had been set up. Her protests were more realistic than the two men expected and one got off the train. When the other man also attempted to leave at the end of the line, he was grabbed by the victim and arrested. The 26-year-old from Osaka protested his innocence and the police soon ...

Another day, another chikan story. To grope one girl is risque. To grope two girls is rather cheeky. But to grope thirty, well, that's just getting carried away. Or not, especially when it's a cop and he gets caught -- then it's just unprofessional in the literal sense of the word. On a train in Kyoto a 38-year-old Osaka head patrol officer was recently grabbed with his hands where they shouldn't have been -- on the body of an office lady. He offered the excuse for his serial train chikan groping that the ladies in question were simply too "unforgettably soft". He has been ...
