In need of a lube that isn't like the rest? The Onassyi Funassyi Lubricant is a parody lube by Pepee, inspired by the wildly popular character Funassyi. The yellow pear was designed to be a mascot (yuru-kyara) for the city of Funbashi in Chiba. Though not officially accepted by the city authorities, Funassyi has gone on to achieve worldwide -- and even global -- fame, resulting in an industry of merchandise, spin-off characters, an anime series, and more. Funassyi is known for being a bit hyperactive and jumping up super high. Which is similar to how you will feel when this lube is ...

Every now and then, Japan's character artists create something truly awesome and original, and which captures the imagination of people around the world. Take Calne Ca by Deino, an idol with a mechanized calcium skeleton (hence the "Ca" in the name). The character -- a favorite of ambitious cosplayers -- is derived from the Vocaloid idol Hatsune Miku. Her name is pronounced Karune Shii-e. According to the Vocaloid Wikia: Her name comes from kara (骸) and ne (音), as well as CA (シーエ), the chemical symbol of calcium. This is due to Calne Ca being a mechanized skeleton ...

Ever since the scandal of designer Keijiro Sano's official 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games logo, people have been having fun with making their own versions of the troubled design. Sano's logo may or may not have been plagiarized from a Belgian source. Regardless, it became clear that Sano himself has plagiarized other materials for previous work. The internet was largely responsible or this -- netizens tracked down Sano's copies and caused a lot of the fury. Sano even deleted his social media accounts just ahead of the announcement, perhaps fearing a backlash. Though at times ...

Yes, "Ultraman porn" is a thing in Japan. Women dressed up as Ultraman-like characters (especially the Mother of Ultraman) in tight costumes and being screwed by men and other "creatures" is not just a nostalgic fantasy, it is an outright erotic fetish in its own right. Porn label GIGA likes these pastiche superhero/superheroine porn and they seem to be responsible for the unofficial Mother of Ultra porn (there may be others around). The "Giant Heroine" (Kyodai Heroine) franchise started way back in 2008 with a film starrting Nana Saeki. The most recent was in July 2015, starring Miho ...

The Hestia boom has been growing this year and it just got better. The busty character from DanMachi (Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) was the star of the light novel and subsequent anime adaptation, and has now become a cult character in her own right. Twitter went wild with a mini meme in the spring, where many people copied Hestia's signature blue ribbon costume and uploaded pics to the social network. Then we had a Taiwanese cosplayer who showed us that busty ladies go very nicely indeed with Hestia costumes. Hestia is now the inspiration for the DanMachi ...

Japanese sex toys often use parody to add an extra layer of fun to the proceedings. We've seen countless parody onaholes, so with clever packaging that resemble actual commercial products such as beer cans and snacks. There are also lubricants like this -- which at first glance look just like green tea or even wine bottles. This is done for the purposes of comic relief but also disguise. You can then leave your sex toy in plain sight! The "imitative" nature of the design can also add something to the effectiveness of the toy, especially in the case of the items like the candy ...

The Candy Lotion Portable Lubricants will fool anyone until they try to eat one of your sweets. On the surface, all you've got in your hand is a bag of candy. In fact, these are mini capsules which can be broken to give you an oozing lube for enjoying with a partner, by yourself, or with a sex toy. This makes them very discrete if you want to leave them lying around or even if you want to take them around with you -- in your bag to work or to the store. You never know when you might need some lube! It's not just a gimmick. The lubes are really effective too. There ...

The Japanese have come up with some unusual sex toys and adult products in their time. Frankly, many defy explanation. But I think we have a new winner. They have been created by guro manga artist Shintaro Kago as awesome ideas for the things sex toys should really be doing for us. And what ideas they are. "Dekichatta-kon setto" (Shotgun wedding set) consists of a condom with a hole in it, plus a spout for collecting spent semen, a needle for puncturing a condom, and a small bottle (for secretly storing your lover's spunk, natch). Apparently you can buy the set from TACO ...

Japanese sex toys love to play cheeky jokes. That's why you get so many masturbators, vibrators and even condoms themed unofficially around famous idols, games, books and so on (including Pachinko!). Food and drink products have also inspired parodies and sometimes this can come in handy for "disguising" your adult treat. In the past we've seen Green Tea Lotion and a host of other sex toys based on actual beverages or snacks, including cup noodle, beer cans and more. One of the latest is this onacup-style masturbator, the Onanee Onariko Cup. The name and the packaging ...

Parody is a big part of the Japanese adult industry, which never takes itself too seriously and loves to create toys overtly (and unofficially) parodying something, whether that be a famous people, idol group, anime, and even drink products. At the end of last year, a parody JAV title was made that had a lot of fun with the case of Ryutaro Nonomura. If you recall, he was the Hyogo Prefecture politician accused of having dodgy expenses and whose press conference justifying his actions descended into bawling. His habit of putting his hands to his ears to listen to questions quickly went ...
