Late last year, we showcased the ageless miracle that is Fumie Nakajima, who looks amazing in swimwear even in her mid-fifties.
As they mature, Japanese improve with age like a fine wine. A couple of cases in point: Yoko Kumada and Sayaka Isoyama, who both look stunning in their forties.
If further proof was needed, here's another example.
Making her debut way back in 1994, the gravure idol Yuka Sawachi (沢地優佳) has managed to survived in a competitive industry in which idols are often discarded after a few months of shoots for the weeklies. She actually retired in 2007 and then ...
Haruka Ayase is one of the most famous models and actors in Japan.
Before she made the transition into mainstream acting and modeling, and seemed to appear in almost every TV commercial or brand campaign, Ayase was briefly a gravure idol. She's got the looks for it: a cute, girl-next-door face, slim body, and (by most Japanese standards) large breasts.
This shoot in which she stands alluringly against a window, her body on display except for skimpy swimwear, is one of our all-time favorite gravure pics.
She even once shot some sort of video in a bath, and you can find nude grainy ...
Last week, we highlighted the stunning, athletic beauty (and body) of 55-year-old Fumie Nakajima. Many of you seemed to agree with our assessment.
Today, it's time for Yoko Kumada.
Regular readers will recognize the name.
The 41-year-old gravure idol is now divorced (after alleged domestic violence and her suspected adultery) and has since worked at a hostess club (alright, it was essentially a publicity stunt for the club but the thought of Kumada serving us drinks had us in a tizzy).
These days, Kumada is making her money through image videos and her latest DVD comes out later this ...
Choose experience over youth, people say, and this certainly applies to experience in bed.
But how much experience is enough? How about mid-fifties?
As Fumie Nakajima is proving, you can still look ravishing at that age -- and there are plenty of people who will pay good money to see it.
The actress and model is releasing her latest gravure image video later this month. The 90-minute DVD shows off 55-year-old Fumie Nakajima's slim and healthy beach body.
Fumie Nakajima, who is married but has no children, has released similar DVDs every year since at least 2018, beginning when she ...
If you've ever stayed at a traditional Japanese inn, or ryokan, especially a somewhat smaller one, you have likely encountered the women who run them, known as the okami (meaning proprietress, not to be confused with okami -- pronounced with a longer oh -- that means wolf).
Though younger women are often busy doing many of the tasks, a slightly older woman is usually in charge. Like the mama-san who runs a hostess club, she's a more mature yet still alluring prospect.
Well, we are likely romanticizing things because the gap between reality and fantasy gets misty here: ryokan ladies are the ...
Last year, police in Hong Kong cracked down on foreign sex workers, arresting several women including former Japanese porn star Noa Aizawa.
It's well known that active and former adult video performers do sex work. It can be especially lucrative to engage in such work outside Japan, particularly other parts of Asia, where JAV is immensely popular. If your career is flagging in Japan or you want a change of pace, you can enjoy a good lifestyle with affluent clients abroad.
It seems that situation in Hong Kong is much the same, with media reporting the arrest on September 5 of 11 members of a ...
There are jukujo mature porn stars. And then there's Yuko Ogasawara (小笠原裕子).
The 88-year-old is probably the world's oldest porn performer.
We found a couple of recently published longish interviews with her on Shueisha Online.
The obvious questions to start with are: When and why did she begin performing?
Her husband died when she was 59 and she then entered the world of snack bars, working as a "mama" as one bar for seven years from the age of 61. Even after giving that up in 68, it was still several years until she entered the adult video industry.
She spent the ...
Miri Hanai (花井美里) turns 39 this October but these recent photos prove that she's as alluring as ever.
The mature gravure idol and musician has firmly entered jukujo territory, and though she's no longer enjoying the success of her twenties, when she pumping out photo books several times a year at one point during the mid-2000s, she's still got her fans and released a new photo book in 2021.
Known for her busty looks (a J or H cup, depending on the marketing), she made her debut in 2003. That's a 20-year career, a milestone few in her competitive industry achieve, and one that ...
As we get older, we appreciate the charms and beauty of older women more. But it's far from the case that we ignored jukujo during our own salad days. Far from it, we have long sung the praises of Japanese cougars and MILF on these digital pages, as regular readers will know.
A jukujo (roughly, "mature woman") is rather loosely defined, and is often applied liberally to any woman past her "prime" (i.e., her twenties). This is nebulous, of course, and most Japanese women in their thirties would shirk from the label, though various celebrities have embraced it and turned it into their whole ...
Maki Makie (マキエマキ) has been working since the early 1990s as a freelance commercial photographer.
Now aged 56, she gained a whole new following when she began taking self-portraits in 2015 and repositioning herself as a "selfie jukujo" (自撮り熟女) model.
This fame has had some unexpected consequences, as she revealed in a long interview with Bunshun.
Her self-portraits revel in a Showa-era atmosphere. Often shot in sketchy or remote locations (like old, rundown resorts or empty shopping streets), they mix humor with the erotic. She is currently exhibiting her work in ...
