Following the high-profile cancellation of the latest "Futomomo" thighs fetish exhibition, another exhibition has run afoul of Ikebukuro Marui department store this month.
Mixing photography and illustration, the annual Girls' Love (yuri) (as opposed to Boys' Love) fetish exhibition was set to run from March 17th to March 25th at the Ikebukuro branch of Marui. The "Yuri Exhibition" event has now been cancelled for reasons that are not yet fully clear. The organizers (who include subculture store Village Vanguard) claim that it has now become "difficult" for the exhibitors to display and ...
The latest edition of the immensely successful "Futomomo" series of exhibitions has been cancelled amid allegations of underage models.
These exhibitions by the photographer Yuria have showcased Japanese female thighs in all manner of poses and settings, and have some 35,000 fans since the first event in July 2015. Last year there was even a spin-off cafe.
But the most recent exhibition, which was set to run at Ikebukuro Marui department store from March 9th to March 26th, has been cancelled over allegations that the models may be legally minors and that the photography was promoting ...
Can a glimpse at something be even more alluring than actually getting your hands on it?
Of all the myriad fetishes we cover on this modest blog, panchira (up-skirt panties view) has probably gained the most mainstream acceptance in recent times.
From calendars to umbrellas, virtual reality apps and adult video games, panchira is everywhere. Sometimes it's illegal and practitioners get into trouble. Other times, it's harmless fun.
Now comes the Specialized Panties Pose Collection: We Love Panties, So We Want to Draw Them ASAP, a "reference" book and photo book that showcases an ...
Japan has been experiencing something of a "suppin" boom of late, where it has become popular for women to wear no makeup -- or at least, to present a more natural look, as if they have not put on any makeup. Celebrities like Nozomi Sasaki have also shared images of themselves in "suppin" to demonstrate how amazing they look without the need for cosmetics. Paradoxically this has now led to women using cosmetic products to create the "suppin" look.
The suppin boom has spread to such an extent that "suppin cafes" have started to pop up in Japan. Basically these are like maid cafes or girls' ...
Without wishing to sound arrogant, we usually reckon we have now seen pretty much every kind of adult toy Japan has to offer, but we still manage to find new formats.
Have you ever tried body stickers like these? We spotted two new body sticker products available from Tama Toys, and sold and shipped globally by Kanojo Toys.
The idea behind the Uterus Body Sticker is that you can experience nakadashi without any of the dangers: you can pull out and bukkake over your partner's body as if coming deep inside her, though minus the risks that entails, of course. This is clearly aimed at ...
Animals for breasts? And on men?
No, this isn't some kind of hybrid human-animal sex fetish, or a transgender fantasy gone mad.
An (old) Japanese video explains the weight of different cup sizes with animals -- and illustrates this by having men wear bras fitted with these animals inside glass cups. So a modest A-cup is only a pair of cockatiels but then, getting progressively bigger and heavier, a B-cup is a pair of guinea pigs, C-cup is hedgehogs (ouch!), D-cup is rabbits, and -- most surreally -- an E-Cup is cockerels!
And then to prove what it's like for women to do exercise and ...
Before you start getting worried, "breast slash" is not some crazy violent fetish where diners get to cut open busts. Known in Japanese as paisura (not to be confused paizuri, or breast sex), it means a bag strap fetish -- i.e., when a shoulder strap or something of the sort runs down over the chest of a woman, creating a slash-like look. Naturally this also gives a very snug squeeze on the breasts, accentuating the bust.
And now there's going to be a Paisura Cafe. It is the brainchild of Muchi Cafe, which specializes in managing pocchari larger Japanese models -- who are, it perhaps goes ...
No chronicle of Japanese adult fetishes is complete without mention of tentacle sex (aka tentacle rape). Known as shokushu goukan in Japanese, the trope was made famous by The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife by Hokusai -- a shunga erotic print vividly depicting an ama diver's fantasy of an octopus having sex with her -- but pops up in other walks of life, too. We really liked an erotic photo shoot we spotted in 2016 of a slinky Japanese gravure idol rollicking with a live octopus.
And it was recently on a mainstream TV show! Kayoko no Heya is a late-night program on Fuji TV fronted by Kayoko ...

Bathing and fetish cultures are both big in Japan, so why not combine the two?
It's a question that people have no doubt asked at some time, but now some boffin has gone ahead and figured out a way to answer it. Don't believe us? Behold the results.
Available in male and female versions, the Leftover Bathwater Drink is for anyone with a hankering for the used water left behind after a special someone has finished their ablutions.
The Leftover Bathwater Drink comes courtesy of the "brilliant" boffins at cult novelty store Village Vanguard, who also produced the panties eye mask we ...
