Ah, springtime. A season for the sakura cherry blossom. For those debauched hanami picnics in parks that are great opportunities for hooking up and meeting friends of friends who become lovers. Well, the bloom has come a little early this year in Tokyo but it looks like the peak will be spoiled by rain anyway. So much for going outdoors and enjoying what promised to be the first true post-Covid hanami season (during the waves of the pandemic, the authorities made rather redundant gestures toward social distancing by closing off parts of parks, which generally just meant that determined ...

The Japanese adult brand Tama Toys has carved out a well-deserved reputation for its awesome lineup, especially onaholes, pillow covers, crossdresser costumes, and anal toys. It is especially known for its consistently impressive manga-style box art, often made in collaboration with top hentai and doujinshi illustrators, or featuring its own catgirl mascot, Super Tamanyan. Not satisfied with getting these great toys online? If you're near Tokyo, you can visit a Tama Toys cafe that opened on February 17 inside Blaise Tacos in Akihabara (of course!). It showcases the Tama Puro Project ...

Japan is famously, perhaps infamously, a land of few condom users. To the chagrin of brands like Okamoto and Sagami, especially because they produce some the thinnest and best-quality condoms in the world, couples tend to prefer the classic pulling-out technique to safe sex that lets you finish inside. And it's one reason there are a lot of shotgun weddings, especially among celebrities (for whom, it is seemingly the only way to get out of their contracts). Oh, and rampant syphilis. But will the guys start wearing condoms during masturbation? If that sounds like an oxymoron, we mean this: ...

We think the Japanese adult industry has a thing for Makoto Shinkai. The anime director's work has served as inspiration for toys and porn. In addition to a porn parody starring Ayane Suzukawa, Your Name. was reimagined as an onahole a few years ago by Tama Toys, soon followed by yet another pocket pussy by a different maker. Shinkai's next anime, Weathering With You, was the source for Tama Toys' aptly named bondage-themed Toilet Bowl With You Onahole. It also inspired an adult video called Pussy with You, starring Aoi Kururugi, plus an "ejaculation app" called Masturbation with ...

Known for creating the most stylish and best-designed adult toys in Japan (and the world), Tenga is also one of the most innovative when it comes to marketing. It loves to make seasonal products and campaigns, and we don't just mean holding a sale or putting together some themed packaging. For example, it regularly offers chocolates in Tenga Cups for Valentine's. It's currently offering a special New Year's Tenga set, inspired by Japanese traditions. The brand has sold such sets since 2017. This year's comes in a wooden box with decorative paper, housing a Premium Tenga Original Vacuum ...

Our good friends at Kanojo Toys are now running a sale for New Year, offering 20% off any order through January 4. Just use the promo code "Happy" to claim your discount. We figured now was also a good time to take a look back at the year's slate of toys. And what a year. Frankly, there were so many toys we couldn't keep up. By our count, Kanojo Toys alone added over 2,700 products! Some of our favorites include the new series from Tenga, the Tenga Bobble, a gel-type masturbator. One of the most striking and original toys came out toward the end of 2022: the Grasp Heart Masturbator by ...

Sure, if you want attractive design in the universal sense, you turn to Tenga. But if you want real innovation -- design that makes you sit back and go, huh?! -- you look to Tama Toys. From grenades to bullets and toilet bowls, there's almost nothing that Tama Toys won't take inspiration from in its noble quest to product sex toys that feel great. Its latest groundbreaking design is the Grasp Heart Masturbator, which, as the name suggests, resembles a human heart. Despite the red color, there's no blood or romance. Just pure pleasure. You lube up and slide your cock between the left and ...

It seems that Father Sexmas read our wish list! Tenga, the Apple of the adult industry, is not content to sit on its well-deserved laurels, but is continuing to produce exciting new releases -- just in time for Christmas. We spotted the somewhat strangely named Tenga Puffy mini series of masturbation toys and are excited to give them a try. Essentially, they are visually cup-style masturbators (like the Tenga Cup or Flip Hole series) but with the tactility of gel sleeves (like, say, the recent Tenga Bobble series). The cup is fully squeezable and employs the latest technology to reduce ...
