The hugely successful series of "Futomomo" thigh fetish photography shows by Yuria hit a snag in the spring, when allegations and outrage over young models prompted the cancellation of an exhibition at Ikebukuro Marui, a major department store. And then came another development: a lesbian-themed photography exhibition, also in Tokyo and also featuring Yuria's work, was then cancelled for dubiously unclear reasons.
The good news is that Yuria is back with more of her usual erotic yet tasteful photography.
"The World of Thighs Photography Autumn 2018" has a fall theme, ideal as the ...
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 ...
The Futomomo series of photography exhibitions has done much to normalize zettai ryouiki and thigh fetish.
And photographer Yuria's project has proved so successful that it has led to six (and counting) photo books and now has even spawned a real-world spin-off.
On October 6th, the World of Thighs Photography Cafe opened in Ebisu, Tokyo. Featuring the stunning and erotic photography of Yuria, visitors can now dine while surrounded by the thigh fetish images.
The selection of photos is taken from a recent shoot in Guam. Sun, sea and legs -- what more could you want?

We've been following the "World of Thighs" series of photography exhibitions by Yuria ever since it started in 2015 and just got bigger and bigger with each new iteration.
Focused just on the glorious wonder of slender Japanese girls' thighs and legs, previous versions of the smash-hit show (known as "Futomomo-ten" in Japanese) include a hot spring theme.
As we once noted, this is basically zettai ryouiki (forbidden zone) fetish with some artistic trappings. One version of the show in Golden Week 2016 was attended by some 16,000 people.
There is now a new ...
The immensely successful "Futomomo" girls' thighs fetish photography series is back.
After its previous incarnations in Tokyo attracted over 20,000 visitors, "World of Thighs" returns to Todays Gallery Studio in Asakusabashi from December 16th to January 22nd (closed December 31st to January 4th).
This time there is a "hot spring" (onsen) theme. (Springs are traditionally very erotic in Japan.)
It's not hard to see why this exhibition has pulled in the punters.
As always, all the photographs by Yuria feature Japanese girls' slender legs. ...
Back in August we reported on the return of the "Futomomo" photography exhibition series, featuring thigh fetish images by Yuria.
Themed exclusively around Japanese girls' thighs, after an exhibition in 2015 the new show in the series is now open in Shibuya. It has highlights from the successful "World of Thighs" exhibition also held in Shibuya in April and May 2016, which was visited by 15,000 people.
Visitors were allowed to take pictures (but not to touch -- that's something of a joke) and here are some of the results.
The entrance alone has to be seen to be believed. Inside, you ...
A new fetish photography show opens at Todays Gallery Studio in Asakusa, Tokyo, on September 2nd. Running until September 25th, the simply named "Butts and Knee Hollow" features the work of photographer Ryosuke Handa.
Admission costs ¥500, though visitors under 3 are free... so bring your kids?
Handa, you may recall, is the photographer with a penchant for shooting in black and white, and who is somewhat obsessed with shooting butts and hips... and we don't blame him.
Last year we reported on another one dedicated to Japanese girls' thighs, also at Todays Gallery Studio. ...
A photography show featuring work by Yuria has got our blood stirring.
"Aimai futomomo shashinkan" (Ambiguous Thighs Photo Studio) focuses (literally) on girls' thighs -- lots of them. The exhibits are based on five years' worth of materials!
Of course, this is basically zettai ryouiki (forbidden zone) in a more artistic setting.
The show runs from July 3rd to July 12th at Todays Gallery Studio in Asakusa. Entry costs ¥500 but for that you get around 200 exhibits of thighs.
If you fancy getting your thigh photographed in this style, during ...
