Busty idol Aoi Fujino releases debut photo book, goes nude
August 4, 2022

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 ...
Rikako Inoue (Yotsuha Kominato) porn debut to get special 4K release
July 26, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
SOD Star are pulling out all the stops for the porn debut of former Fairies music idol Rikako Inoue. Now performing under the name Yotsuha Kominato (and also releasing her own music), her first adult video (STARS-685-VT) came out in June and has been the biggest debut of the summer, aided by a large publicity budget.
Fans of the beautiful Rikako/Yotsuha are clamoring for more. So much so that SOD Star are releasing a special 264-minute 4K version from August 4.
Now only is the video now 4K quality, it contains a previously unreleased sex scene in a hotel. The 4K version is available, as far ...
We've bemoaned the crowded and competitive state of the gravure industry before. A gradol may grace the cover of Weekly Playboy or Young Jump one week and, just a few months later, be hung out to dry as yet another young lady in a bikini takes their place.
It's hard to keep up with all the new arrivals on the scene and while many gravure idols try to expand into acting and TV work without explicitly "graduating" from glamor modeling, some do more formally retire. But even this is often done without much fanfare.
Perhaps it gets announced on social media and then that's it: the idol is ...
Nana Asakawa returns to gravure with nude shoot
July 7, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Gravure idols famously come and go. Those who seemed at the top of their game with regular cover shoots in the weeklies might fall out of favor in a couple of months and be gone from our lives. The most successful idols learn that they need to branch out into acting and TV work, and not rely on the precarious gigs doing shoots for magazines and releasing digital photo books in a crowded market.
Nana Asakawa was huge at the end of the 2010s and likewise began to take high-profile acting jobs, including sex scenes in the Haram Marriage TV adaptation and We're Too Bad at Romance.
Those ...
Highlights from music idol Rikako Inoue (Yotsuha Kominato) porn debut
June 28, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
We promised. We delivered. More to the point, she delivered.
We said we would follow up on our post last week about the first pictures from the highly anticipated porn debut (STARS-685-VT) of ex-Fairies member Rikako Inoue, now performing as Yotsuha Kominato. We can now share actual highlights from her 250-minute adult video release as well as nude promo photos of the star.
Fans will love her sweet, slender body and its beautifully pale skin. We know we do!
The sex itself is pretty conventional, ranging from gentle bathroom intimacy, some banging on a sofa, and the usual kind of ...
Rikako Inoue (Yotsuha Kominato) porn debut: First pictures
June 24, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Anticipation continues to build over the porn debut of former Fairies music idol Rikako Inoue as Yotsuha Kominato, which may well become one of the biggest AV of the summer.
While the upcoming release from Soft on Demand is still largely under wraps, with only very tame interview or promo videos available online to tease viewers, we do finally have the first preview images to enjoy.
They suggest the video will contain bath sex, masturbation, and Kominato's "first" time with a man. In one shot, she's wearing lingerie and a blindfold as a (much older) male partner manipulates her ...
Readers got understandably excited when we reported in May on the upcoming adult video debut of former Fairies music idol Rikako Inoue.
Now active as a gravure idol and singer under the name Yotsuha Kominato, the beautiful starlet is making her entry into the porn industry with a highly anticipated release from SODstar on June 27 (unfortunately, we don't have a video code yet).
Intriguingly, the porn release is being promoted by Soft on Demand alongside her new solo music release, suggesting it was part of the deal they made with her or that they are even involved with the production or ...
Rikako Inoue (井上理香子), a former member of the now-defunct idol group Fairies, is to make her porn debut as Yotsuha Kominato (小湊よつ葉).
Fairies disbanded in 2020, after which Inoue (who was a member of the group throughout its roughly nine-year run) nominally retired from the entertainment industry and became a company employee for two years.
However, the 25-year-old officially adopted the name Yotsuha Kominato in March this year and returned to gravure with a shoot for Weekly Playboy and tie-in 57-page photo book.
This month, she released the music video for a solo song, ...
Ex-Morning Musume Miki Fujimoto declined nude photo book, did nude stage role
May 4, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Former Morning Musume idol Miki Fujimoto these days does a bit of acting and appears on television shows as a tarento.
Now aged 37 and married with two children, Mikitty is back in the news again because she went on a radio show on April 30 and mentioned that she was previously offered to do a nude photo book after she left the idol group in 2007.
Unlike fellow Morning Musume alumni Asuka Fukuda and Maki Goto, she turned down the offer. The proposed photo book would not have been a hair nude, full-frontal style, but apparently was to be shot from behind in a more sophisticated way.
Fans ...
Yuka Hirata returns with first Weekly Playboy gravure shoot in 14 years
April 20, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
A reader recently chided us for not writing about the Yumi Sugimoto's return to gravure (though we did post pics on tumblr). The truth is, even with "gravure comebacks," there are simply too many idols to keep track of, let alone write about in detail on these digital pages.
But here's one comeback that is certainly worthy of note.
Yuka Hirata (38) made a very welcome return to our lives with her first Weekly Playboy gravure shoot in 14 years, first published in the March 19 issue of the magazine.
Now on the cusp of 40 and steeped in jukujo territory like a finely aged wine, the former ...
