It seems that during lockdown, even Japanese television producers are getting desperate for ideas. The popular TV show Ariyoshi Hanseikai recently featured the gravure idol (gradol) Mai Arakawa (荒川真衣). She appeared semi-nude for a sequence. Nothing new about this, which is often how gradols appear on TV in Japan. Except that Mai Arakawa is known for her love of eating insects -- something she shares with the world in her YouTube videos -- and her penchant for all things creepy and crawly was showcased to a certain extent by having her pose with beetles on her buttocks and garter ...

Over the weekend here in Tokyo, temperatures climbed close to 30 degrees Celsius -- a reminder that summer is once again just around the corner and, hopefully, an end to this coronavirus pandemic. Another, very welcome reminder came from the Instagram account of actress and model Kyoko Fukada, a long-time favorite of this blog, who posted a video of herself surfing and showing off her stunning, toned and tanned bikini body. Sure, she is wearing bikini bottoms but they have cheekily slipped down to reveal a decent slice of her butt crack. We're not sure when the video was filmed but it was ...

We have long had a crush on Misumi Shiochi (塩地美澄), the curvy jukujo with a gently undulating gravure idol career that emerged from her TV announcer and presenting work (largely for a regional channel in the 2000s). She only released her first photo book in 2016, when she was already in her thirties. Now aged 37, the very comely Shiochi has posed for what is surely her sexiest photo shoot yet -- a series of semi-nude pics, released as a digital photo book, that show off her ravishing and alluring body. In Japanese cup sizes, she is apparently a G-cup but we are not wholly convinced. ...

Here at Tokyo Kinky, we consider it our sworn duty to introduce readers to gravure idols who are not only the famous and established names. It's a busy and competitive industry, and many gradols can frankly slip between the gaps. Here today, gone tomorrow. Careers can burn out before they have even had a chance to glow. That's why we sometimes turn the spotlight on newbies or more minor names in the industry. Asako Tani (谷あさこ) is, at least for now, one such example. Born in 1993 in Kanagawa, Tani is technically a TV announcer (presenter) rather than a fully fledged gradol, but she ...

One gravure idol is so proud of her buttocks that she used them as the "paper" for telling a kamishibai-style story. Kamishibai (literally "paper plays") are old types of street theater storytelling with a narrator and illustrated boards. Though it is very rare to see it outdoors in Japan now, you can still find kamishibai events for children. Maity is a G-cup idol who is ostensibly head of the "thong squad." She got a friend to draw illustrations on her butt cheeks. The story seems to be able two friends who get separated. Maity then shared the results with fans in a series of posts on ...

One of our favorite gravure idols, Yuka Someya, recently appeared in a stunning photo shoot that further cements her comeback on the scene ongoing since last year. Since she has already done nude shoots -- albeit not actually showing pubic hair to qualify fully as "hair nude" -- what more can Yuka show us? Well, she can tease us, it seems, and do this very well. For a shoot that ran in the weekly magazine Flash in the February 25th issue (sorry, folks, we're late with this one!), the busty 28-year-old was cast as a sexy housewife and covered her naked body in dripping chocolate. Now that's ...

From Rina Hirata to Karen Ishida and Angela Mei, it's no secret that we love a hot haafu. Mixing Japanese with the blood of another ethnic group leads to some stunning results. And here's yet more proof of that, if any were needed. Pamela Asahi (朝比パメラ) is the latest biracial arrival on the gravure idol scene and she has already made a big impression. With her pale skin and angelic looks, not to mention curvy butt and attractive bust (C cup), the native New Yorker has carved out a career so far mostly in regular modeling. Born in 1991 to a Canadian father and Japanese mother, ...

Started by Dolly Parton, of all people, the LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Tinder meme has been floating around social media for a while now. In a nutshell, it purports to show a quartet of images showing different personalities projected of yourself on different types of social media platforms. Like all big memes, there have been some great and inventive variations posted and shared. But we think this is the first one based on a Japanese gravure idol. In this case, it is the comely Kazusa Okuyama who is the inspiration. We're not sure of the original source of this image -- if you are, ...

Just time for a quick post today, but here's a reminder -- if any were needed -- that Mariya Nagao is still the hottest ex-AKB48 member we know. Since leaving the supergroup and forging her own acting and gravure idol career, she has continued to exploit her glamorously alluring yet girl-next-door looks in combination with a tight body and (relatively) plump ass. This most recent gravure photo shoot -- promoting a new 2020-2021 calendar release -- proves once again what a reliable star she is. Thank you, Mariya, for taking our minds off the coronavirus crisis and the hay fever that is ...

Former Magical Punchline and Idoling!!! member Rena Sato (佐藤麗奈) has posed for her first serious gravure shoot and it's a good one. She left the idol world for good back in 2018 and since last year has been working as an independent "talent." In the February 18 issue of weekly magazine FLASH, the 21-year-old has posed for a lavish gravure shoot showing off her cute body in lingerie on a bed and while lying in a bath. If you want to know what Rena's pert butt cheeks look like when wet, you're in for a treat. Especially if you also like juicy fruit. Don't know about you, ...
