There are several ways to tell that you have "made it" as a porn star in Japan.
Probably the first and most obvious is when you are cast as a tantai joyu (単体女優) -- an actor who carries a whole release by herself and is given a lead credit (as opposed to the thousands of performers who are uncredited). Only this kind of role ultimately pays enough to make porn a full-time career.
Another is perhaps when you release a photo book or get offers to do various fan events.
But a really big sign is when you get your first spin-off adult toy.
Sendai native Ichika Matsumoto debuted in 2019 ...
It's been a long and hard journey, but the Olympics are finally opening in Tokyo today.
If you're an athlete, you will have to put up with "anti-sex" beds (not actually true!) and exhortations not to screw fellow athletes in the Olympic Village (OK, this one is sadly true). If you're one of the tens of thousands of hangers-on, you are nominally stuck in a bubble around the venues, though we have already seen plenty of people wandering around (and many more online, looking to hook up with Japanese girls easily impressed by their Olympic credentials).
We will be participating in our own ...
For a while, it seemed that see-through onaholes were all the rage. Not a week went by without a new "crystal" or "clear" toy coming out. We particularly liked it when these were combined with a "hard" (i.e., tight) style.
But we haven't seen a large masturbator in this kind of design for a while (if at all).
And so we were naturally delighted to encounter the new Puni Ana Suke Suke DX Onahole, which is available from our friends at Japanese adult toys store Kanojo Toys.
As you might well expect, you get two meandering and realistic holes here, insuring there is something whether you are a ...
Forget the Fantastic Beasts series. Our favorite supernatural franchise of late is the Amazing Beasts series of sex toys.
The Amazing Beasts series is a lineup of dildos inspired by animals and creature characters. If you want to be fucked or to fuck a partner with what looks like a monster's cock, then this is the series for you.
And we just spotted one of the recent entries that is now available for international delivery.
Made by Daimaoh, a Japanese adult retailer that occasionally ventures into creating its own toys, usually with outlandish results (a dolphin sex doll, anyone?), this ...
The "cloned" onahole is a staple of the Japanese adult sex toy market: masturbators produced based on a particular woman's vagina and vulva.
Some are more realistic (and expensive) than others. The best are designed with molds or 3D models taken directly from the women's body.
Of course, these women are usually porn stars, and releasing your own clone toy through a brand like Nippori Gift is a sign that you have established a certain status in the industry.
Over the years, we have seen and used countless numbers of such onaholes. But we think this is the first time we have seen one like ...
We recently reported with glee about the porn comeback of Shion Utsunomiya, going through yet another name change to become Rara Anzai (again).
That alone is more than enough news to brighten up our November and clear away those autumnal clouds. But then there's this.
The J-cup goddess has gone and got her you-know-what cloned and replicated as a masturbator toy.
The Japanese Real Hole Indecent Rara Anzai is the latest in a successful series of toys by EXE and S1, all based on famous adult video stars.
While we are still waiting for an oppai bust toy that replicates Shion's ...
We are very pleased to share that our friends at Kanojo Toys have been busy relaunching their immensely popular shop, which is the best online destination for ordering Japanese adult toys from anywhere around the world.
On top of a bunch of visual improvements, Kanojo Toys now has a more sophisticated navigation, making it easier to find the types of toys you like whether you are a straight man looking for masturbation aids, a woman in search of toys for herself, or a couple seeking out fresh thrills. The relaunched store is packed with new categories as well as subcategories, allowing you ...
Because sometimes you want something really wild inside of you.
The Amazing Beasts is an original series of dildos by online Japanese adult toys retailers Daimaoh. And when we say original, we mean it.
As vibrantly colored as they are sensationally named and astoundingly shaped, these are some of the most incredible fetish dildos we have seen in Japan.
If you felt that being penetrated by or penetrating your partner with a replica stick of goya or a large sweet corn just wasn't strange or sexy enough, then these beasts should sate your appetite.
The dildos offer shafts and glans like ...
Oh, Japan and its parodic adult toys. Always a new trick up their sleeves.
The lawyers might be rubbing their hands with glee after this one has come out on the market, but for now we are loving the novelty of its design as well as, of course, the awesome masturbation stimulation it provides.
We mean this Mista's Sex Piston Bizarre Cup, a barely disguised parody of the anime and manga franchise JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. How do they get away with this sort of stuff?
Regardless of the legal loopholes at play here, we love it.
You can become an ally of the Joestar family and use the secret ...
We spend probably far too much of our time scouring Japanese porn news, parsing gravure idol developments, and checking out the latest kinds of Japanese adult toys to hit the market.
We try to balance content on this humble blog based on all three strands of our "research." Today we are taking a deep dive into the third one.
Though we usually confine our search to the newest offerings from Japan's top sex toy brands, it sometimes pay dividends to take a gander at the incredible pantheon of items already on offer.
We have collected together ten examples of strange, wacky, unusual but ...
