To get us ready for the upcoming FIFA World Cup, which kicks off in Qatar on November 21, the lovely Yuno Ohara has dressed up in the Japanese soccer team's kit.
The 23-year-old gravure idol poses in a soccer cosplay costume for a shoot included in the current issue of weekly magazine Spirits. And if soccer isn't your thing, rest assured that the shoot also included more conventionally sexy lingerie pics.
There are hopes that Japan's Samurai Blue national team, which has its first match (against Germany) on November 23, can repeat its performance from 2018, when it reached the ...
A month's gone by and we wanted to update readers about Sayaka Nitori's photo book, Ribbon.
Her debut print release (advertised as semi-nude) puts her amazing G-cup bust at the front and center of proceedings, though her slinky body and ass are not neglected either.
Though not classified formally as a nude photo book, her nipples are nonetheless visible underneath her clothing or behind a gauze, and at least one ravishing shot shows her totally naked kneeling in the bath with her butt, bare back, side boob, and a bit of nipple on display. There's a similar follow-up shot with her lying in ...
We've said it before and we'll say it again, once more for the people at the back: Japanese lingerie advertising is the place to go to see some of the country's hottest gravure models and music idols in scantily clad attire, often hotter than the more placid and conventional aesthetic of gravure that we encounter on the pages of the weekly magazines.
The two big names in the industry are, as regular readers will know, Ravjour and Peach John.
The latter has picked 19-year-old Aika Sawaguchi (沢口愛華)) for their next brand ambassador. The up-and-coming gravure star is not really typical ...
The model Riho Takada (高田里穂) has made a triumphant return to gravure and is now releasing her first print photo book in 11 years.
As featured in the cover shoot for the October 31 issue of Weekly Playboy, the 28-year-old Riho went nuder than ever before for the swimwear/beach-themed and lingerie shoot.
Other shots feature her topless, her breasts covered by her hands and arms held close to her chest, or by a carefully positioned shirt.
We're not sure why all these autumn photo books think a summer theme is the way to go -- see the new photo book by Hana Takeuchi for ...
We're rather belatedly catching up with some of the AV and gravure releases we missed last month. One was the first photo book released by the gravure idol Hana Takeuchi (竹内花).
"Hana no Mitsu" (Flower Nectar, or Hana's Nectar) came out on September 8 from Wani Books, which specializes in gravure publications. Shot by Seiji Yanishi, the photo book has a summery vibe that doesn't sit well with the autumnal temperatures in Tokyo, but we're not complaining about the shots of Hana clutching blocks of ice to her naked chest.
Talking of which, according to her profile, the 24-year-old has a ...
Sometimes we see something that makes us feel a bit nostalgic -- and a bit old!
Rika Adachi (足立梨花) was one of our favorite gravure idols about a decade ago, mainly for her nice butt. She made it onto our now-legendary list of "Japanese babes with great asses."
To be honest, we haven't followed all the ins and outs of her modeling and acting career in the years since, though we remember when she was forced to deny having had plastic surgery (which is secretly quite common in Japan).
Well, now Rika Adachi has released a new photo book to mark her thirtieth birthday (what? When did ...
A few weeks ago, we posted a preview about the gravure idol Sayaka Nitori's highly anticipated debut photo book.
The semi-nude photo book shows off the model's nipples for the first time, though nominally covered by wet clothing. We also noted the meteoric rise of the idol and how she has done it as a freelancer unattached to the usual talent agencies (which control a celebrity or model's career and take most of the money).
We are delighted now to share some more highlights from the photo book, Ribbon, proving that's really stretching the "semi" part of "semi-nude." Nitori's G-cup ...
The slinky Sayaka Nitori is one of the most popular gravure idols of the moment and enjoys a following especially on social media (to the cool tune of a million followers on Instagram). In fact, she's known as an Instagram gravure pioneer, launching her account in late 2016 and then making her formal debut in gravure in 2018.
After years of anticipation, the 28-year-old is releasing her first photo book, Ribbon, on September 28, and has finally shown us her nipples.
Kind of.
Those titties are unfortunately still covered by her clothing, but the amazing outline of her pert nipples of her ...
About two years ago, we published something about busty gravure idol Hikaru Aoyama's semi-nude photo book debut, and it was an unexpectedly popular post.
There has been a kind of subtle shift in the industry away from the bakunyu mega-bust gradols toward more slimmer beauties like Kazusa Okuyama and Risa Yukihira, though ladies like Hikaru Aoyama, Jun Amaki, and, more recently, Aoi Fujino, prove that large jugs are still a hit.
Aoyama and her I-cup breasts are certainly still going strong, as a new shoot amply demonstrates.
The 29-year-old, who is also part of a five-member gravure music ...
Curvy, busty gravure idols are nothing new. But it can still make you stop and sputter when you stumble over a provocative shoot.
Take Aoi Fujino (藤乃あおい), whose bust is meant to measure a whole meter! Her latest photo shoot is nude -- or at least about as close as it is possible to be without being nude.
Making her 23rd birthday, Fujino shows off her attractive body by posing with her arms over her breasts (the classic tebura pose) and a hand covering her crotch. Sometimes the only thing preserving her modesty is her long hair or soap suds rubbed over her wet body.
But when it ...
