Revisiting the wonders of vintage Showa-era Japanese porn magazines
May 1, 2019
/ Tadashi Anahori
It's May 1st, the inaugural day of the new Reiwa era. And what better time to take a gander at some old porn from this cache of images recently shared online?
Strictly speaking, we reckon these adult magazines come from the Showa period, which ended in 1989, rather than the past three decades of Heisei, but there might be some overlap. Online searches seem to reveal nothing, so they are probably quite obscure.
We just love the titles: from "Visual Communication Magazine for Young Adalt" (sic) and "Fucky-up" (sic) to "Rape me" and "Sexual Les Girls." The shoots themselves range from the ...
Celebrating the end of Heisei with this Karen Kimijima and Lisa M lesbian shoot
April 30, 2019
/ Tadashi Anahori
Today is the final day of Heisei. As the emperor abdicates this afternoon, we are remembering the past three decades and all those lovely ladies that have passed through our lives (in actuality or through the lens of gravure and adult video).
We should put together a proper "adult Heisei" post soon but it might be too mammoth an undertaking. In the meantime, we are recalling recent good times and looking forward to the future with these two ladies.
The dancer and model Karen Kimijima has made a comeback since her drug arrest in early 2018, which is a very fine thing because she has frankly ...
Welcome in the new Japanese era of Reiwa, which shares the same name as an anime porn game theme song
April 8, 2019
/ Tadashi Anahori
When the new Japanese era name of Reiwa was announced on April 1st, sparking intense speculation about how best to translate it into English, our first thought was: that could be a great porn star's name!
Admittedly the kanji characters (令和) are unusual, so it would have to be a homonym. Unfortunately we couldn't find any decent examples on a brief search
Nonetheless, the most amusing such parallel we've spotted so far has actually derived from the official English translation of the name: beautiful harmony.
An online search for "beautiful harmony," though, may bring up quite a ...
Korean softcore porn film Chained — The Seduction of Two Women has awesome nude lesbian sex scenes
May 23, 2018
/ Tadashi Anahori
Here are some screen grabs from the South Korean film Chained -- The Seduction of Two Women (aka Chain -- The Temptation of Two Women) (2017), which stars Jeong Hyang and Hong Sae-hee engaging in some impressive girl-on-girl tender loving.
It's rare to see Korean lesbian sex scenes like this, which makes a nice change from the usual fantasy tropes in such erotic films. We reckon these are some of the hottest Korean lesbian sex scenes we've seen (with the notable exceptions, of course, of The Handmaiden and The Treacherous), but other recommendations are very welcome.
Fear not, though. ...
Yuri Girls’ Love photography exhibition latest fetish event in Tokyo to be cancelled
March 15, 2018
/ Tadashi Anahori
Following the high-profile cancellation of the latest "Futomomo" thighs fetish exhibition, another exhibition has run afoul of Ikebukuro Marui department store this month.
Mixing photography and illustration, the annual Girls' Love (yuri) (as opposed to Boys' Love) fetish exhibition was set to run from March 17th to March 25th at the Ikebukuro branch of Marui. The "Yuri Exhibition" event has now been cancelled for reasons that are not yet fully clear. The organizers (who include subculture store Village Vanguard) claim that it has now become "difficult" for the exhibitors to display and ...
AV idol Rion appears in stunning nude lesbian photo shoot with newcomer Nanami Matsumoto
November 29, 2017
/ Tadashi Anahori
One of our favorite Japanese porn stars, Rion, has joined forces with a newcomer on the adult video block, Nanami Hashimoto Matsumoto. And what a pairing they make!
Not to be confused with the Nogizaka46 idol of the same name (but different kanji), The 23-year-old, H-cup Nanami Matsumoto is a voluptuous beauty who makes a perfect counterpoint to the ravishing Rion (aka Rara Anzai, Shion Utsunomiya).
The two ladies have recently appeared together in a stunning nude photo shoot with a seriously alluring lesbian theme.
Matsumoto made her gravure debut in 2015 and then took ...
Kamen Rider W actress Rin Asuka goes nude in White Lily with wild lesbian sex scenes
November 27, 2017
/ Tadashi Anahori
We've just enjoyed the soft-core porn film White Lily (2016), in which Rin Asuka spends a lot of the running time nude and in some sort of sexual embrace.
The film also stars Kaori Yamaguchi and Kanako Nishikawa, who have their own awesome nude sex scenes.
While the guy-on-girl scenes are nice enough, the real action comes with the lengthy lesbian bed scenes between Asuka and the fortysomething Yamaguchi, which includes a stunning 69-position mutual cunnilingus as well as a scissoring session (on top of a table, no less).
This being Japan and the world of pink eiga, things stop short of ...
Noriko Kijima nude sex scenes in soft-core bondage porn film The Torture Club
October 24, 2017
/ Tadashi Anahori
Released in Japan as Chotto Kawaii Iron Maiden, we previously wrote about The Torture Club, a soft-core bondage film starring Noriko Kijima based on a manga.
Now that Kota Yoshida's erotic film has had some sort of a stateside release, it seems, by chance we found some better screen grabs, so indulge us in a second trip to the world of Japanese lesbian BDSM -- not least because this time there's no censored hair and we get the full-frontal nudity in all its neatly trimmed glory.
Alongside Noriko Kijima, whose explicit scenes leave practically nothing left to the imagination barring a ...
New drink tumbler lets manga fans kiss favorite (female) character
September 15, 2017
/ Tadashi Anahori
We all know there are various ways to get close to your favorite 2D characters from games, anime, light novels, manga and so on. The hug pillow, decorated with a character's face and body, is surely the most effective: you can hug it and, with the help of a certain toy in the right slot, even have penetrative sex with it.
But for some people that's too much. They want a more romantic experience.
And for that, there is this new tumbler with an anime character's face on the lid. Every time you take a sip, you are kissing the character on the lips. The liquid in the cup also comes out of ...
Japanese porn star takes part in lesbian sweet nyotaimori feast
June 19, 2017
/ Tadashi Anahori
What do AV actresses do on their days off? This is a question we often ponder. How many of the hot ladies wandering around Shinjuku and Shibuya are actually minor porn stars doing some shopping?
We've searched the archives a bit and found this revealing gem, which offers a tantalizing hint about what some of the more adventurous ladies get up to.
In April 2015, porn performer Sara Shinomiya spent her day off having her lovely body coated in cream and other sweet things -- all for her friends to slowly lick off.
They also used some sort of sweet topping to write insults on her legs in ...
