We love a good comeback story at Tokyo Kinky. And we especially love comebacks that defy mainstream expectations about women and beauty.
Why shouldn't older women still be sex symbols? A year ago, we wrote about Fumie Nakajima's image DVDs that prove a woman can still look great in her mid-fifties.
Now here's another 55-year-old Japanese woman who returned to our lives.
Reiko Kato was something of a legend in the later 1980s and early 1990s. She has answered our Christmas wishes and come back to gravure with her first such shoot in 26 years.
Kato's past photo book and shoots -- often ...
The porn star Ayumi Kuroki (黒木歩) made her debut in 2010. She hasn't had many credits in the past few years but has not officially retired. Her most recent release is a lesbian-themed production that comes out later this month.
The performer is now 43 and very much in the MILF/jukujo category. She also directs and sings in a band, and holds private events for fans.
She gave an interview to Spa! last month in which she described what it is like to raise a child while pursuing her line, similar to a interview that married porn star and mom Marina Shiraishi also gave the publication in ...
The gravure comebacks are arriving thick and fast. The end of the year is turning into a bit of a nostalgia blitz.
Just after Chinatsu Wakatsuki's return to gravure after a 19-year gap and similar highly anticipated comebacks by the likes of Rina Aizawa and Rina Koike, here's another lady who used to be a staple of gravure magazines.
Serina, formerly of AKB48 spin-off group SDN48, was a big part of our lives in the early 2010s.
SDN48, as readers with long memories may recall, was a short-lived music idol group formed to be a sexier version of AKB48. It failed to catch on and disbanded in ...
Chinatsu Wakatsuki has made a surprise gravure comeback with a cover shoot for the current issue of Weekly Young Jump.
Chinatsu Wakatsuki was one of the biggest female celebrities of the 2000s, known for her cute butt that she frequently showed off.
She is now 40 and married with two children, having had a shotgun wedding in 2012. She remains a fairly common face on TV.
Wakatsuki has rewarded her fans with this return to gravure, apparently her first such shoot for a gravure magazine in 19 years. (It might be mere coincidence that she left her management agency of 23 years back in ...
Former Morning Musume music idol Maki Goto has caused a sensation with her new photo book, flos
Many years ago, she did some great semi-nudes shoots (one on a bed showing off her naked side and barely hiding her tits, and another where she lies naked on a sandy beach).
Gomaki, as she is known to fans, married in 2014 and has two kids, but her image was hit by allegations of adultery with her former boyfriend, leading to a public apology in 2019. Her husband sued the boyfriend for several million yen.
She has subsequently made a comeback as a singer and model.
Part of this comeback was her ...
We love to sing the praises of the Japanese cougar or jukujo on these digital pages. In the past, we've showcased the jaw-dropping beauty of 55-year-old Fumie Nakajima, and the allure of voice actress Minori Chihara and mother-of-three Yoko Kumada -- both in their forties.
Newbie gravure idols and JAV talent appear each month, but the older ladies have staying power.
We have now taken a look at the latest image video by Nana Hiratsuka (平塚奈菜). The 39-year-old is on the cusp of her forties but this has tempered her willingness to strip.
The stunner shows off her I-cup breasts and ...
In the summer, we got super excited about voice actress Yuka Iguchi showing off her amazing body, curvy and busty yet still svelte and sporty.
The unmarried 36-year-old has been spending a lot of time at the gym to get herself ready for her second photo book, which came out earlier in April and celebrates her 20th anniversary in the entertainment industry.
Here at Tokyo Kinky, we're a firm believer that you can never have too much of a good thing, especially if it involves sexy Japanese jukujo like Yuka Iguchi.
Her latest pics show us just how freakin' hot she looks in a thong, her ...
Earlier this week, we wrote about Haruna Kojima's sexy body that the 36-year-old showed off for all the world to see on her social media (and also cleverly promoting her own brand of lingerie).
Now the head of her own fashion company and basking in the wealth that comes from selling a clutch of shares to a major retailer, the former AKB48 idol has also just announced a gravure comeback with her first photo book in nine years!
The as-yet-untitled book will come out in Japan via major publisher Takarajimasha on October 28.
Her previous photo book in 2015 sold 170,000 copies and Kojiharu ...
Top model and actress Haruka Ayase is reportedly dating a much younger male singer and actor.
According to tabloid reports, Ayase (39) is in a relationship with Jesse Lewis (28), who, despite the name, is a Japanese singer with the group SixTones.
The pair reportedly visited Las Vegas together this month. Lewis's father is from Las Vegas and the tabloids have interpreted this as meaning he took Ayase "home" to introduce her to his parents.
News about the relationship has had a mixed reaction from the public, some of whom are surprised at the age gap. However, we rarely blink twice if a male ...
When we look back to those first generations of AKB48 in the late 2000s, it almost seems like carefree halcyon days when the nastiness of Japan's idol industry -- which we all knew was there -- was not the dominant talking point in the discourse, and everywhere we went we saw ads featuring the young ladies from the Akihabara supergroup.
Most of the members are now long gone from our lives, both those from the first "generation" and subsequent ones, with perhaps just a couple -- Atsuko Maeda and Yuko Oshima -- succeeding at establishing real acting careers.
We always had a soft spot for slinky ...
