Well, it was a long time coming. Throughout 2021, gravure idol Kyouka took more and more of her clothes off, teasing us with the possibility of a nude shoot by showing us her naked butt and plenty of side boob. She finally rewarded our patience with a nude spread fully showing us her beautiful F-cup breasts. It's not a full-frontal nude shoot (called "hair nudes" in Japan), but it's still ravishing. The breasts have a stunning shape, just curved and perky enough without losing their heft and bounce. She also has a pale, innocent skin and a slender body (though still with some decent curves ...

Happy New Year. We welcome in the Year of the Tiger by checking out a small sampling of the great tora-themed sexy cosplay posted on social media by Japanese cosplayers, gravure models, porn stars, and more. We start with an obvious choice: Japan's top cosplayer, Enako, whose contribution looked both busty and cozy. Former AKB48 idol and lingerie model Haruna Kojima, who seems to be visiting Paris at the moment, made do with a croissant pose and some cat cosplay (albeit it in colors/pattern that was more like a cow than a tiger). Shibari model Cana achieved an intimacy and warmth with ...

The year is drawing to a close: another twelve months packed full of gravure shoots and photo books. But who did the most memorable nude shoot? Sure, there were plenty of sexy and semi-nude shoots, but who made their nude debuts? Who looked best without their clothes on? We look at the best nude shoots in 2021 from gravure idols, models, and other celebrities (not porn stars, since going nude is par for the course). Former Morning Musume idol and singer Maki Goto make a high-profile comeback to live performance and also released a photo book, where she went nude again -- and proved how ...

Idol-of-the-moment Kazusa Okuyama has released a new digital photo book, Passion, and, judging from the preview images we have seen, it's yet another stunner. Shot by Tim Gallo, it was released by Weekly Playboy. Okuyama dazzles in purple-pink lingerie and a black dress that shows off her slender legs and alluring back. The 27-year-old Aoyama native has also just released a new calendar. This digital photo book follows on from her third print photo book (shot by Tomoki Kuwajima), which came out from Shogakukan on September 30. That's three print photo books in as ...

Kyouka (京佳), the 22-year-old gravure idol who is a slightly less busty Jun Amaki lookalike, has continued to build a fandom in the surest way possible: by taking off her clothes. As we gleefully reported earlier in the year, she already did this for a weekly magazine and showed us her butt and side boob. Now the lovable gradol and former Yumemiru Adolescence member with the winning smile has done it again with another shower-and-bath-themed shoot for Weekly Friday, published back in November (sorry, we forgot to post this!). Over the nine pages, she showed us her nude butt and about as ...

The 26-year-old I-cup gravure idol Sakura Ninomiya (二宮さくら) is making the switch to porn, joining top industry label Moodyz as Sakura Mita (三田サクラ). And it's not a one-off. As Sakura Ninomiya, she released a bunch of image videos from 2016 onward and seemed set for a big, busty future in gravure. In 2019, she released a photo book. Now as Sakura Mita, having left her agency of five years at the end of June this year, she released her first AV (midv00008) on December 7. Unsurprisingly, the publicity for the 150-minute video focuses squarely on her amazing ...

Actress and gravure idol Manami Shindo (新藤まなみ) has taken her career to the next stage with another nude photo shoot and her first image DVD release in four years. The 29-year-old, who was briefly a reporter for TBS in 2014 and can apparently speak five languages, also released a digital photo book earlier in the year. As an actress, her appearances include an episode of Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger (from the Super Sentai tokusatsu franchise). She did an onsen-themed nude shoot for weekly magazine Friday over two issues back in April, showing off her naked back and butt, and wet ...

We've always nurtured a fascination with Rina Toeda (十枝梨菜), who's arguably something of an anomaly in the gravure industry. Sure, she is credited with a G-cup (by Japanese standards) but, unlike the bustier, bouncier, buxom kinds of gravure idols, Toeda has a more assured, alluring style: in particular, great buttocks and skin as well as an exotic face that lends her a glamorous, party-girl character. Especially over the past few years, she's presented an image that is closer to Kiko Mizuhara or a similar kind of model than an average gradol. Following her exploits on Instagram, the ...

Some of us get more conservative the older we get. Misumi Shiochi gets nuder the older she gets. The 39-year-old jukujo and former TV announcer has now firmly settled into her role in the gravure industry as the current ara-four ("around 40") lady of the moment that men want to sleep with, perhaps especially if they are the same age. Her latest photo shoot shows off her G-cup breasts (though without actually showing off her nipples) and gives us some great views on her ass and nude back. The pictures are highlights from her new photo book, "Nocturne," which came out in Japan on September ...

It's the last gasp of summer here in Tokyo. The weather has dropped ten degrees in just a few days and the overcast or even rainy skies have made things very autumnal indeed. On go the first long sleeves of the season and, as we enjoy sunny weather today, back goes the mind to the memories of the summer. Well, it was a strange one: the pandemic continued to put a damper on life, leading to canceled or postponed events, all while the Olympics took place behind closed doors. Most people couldn't do much, certainly not take any real trip. Thank the Shinto gods for the joys of the internet. We ...
