L-cup gravure idol Yu Tano to make porn debut
May 13, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
She only made her gravure debut in January, but busty idol Yu Tano (田野憂) has already made the switch to adult video.
The 20-year-old newbie with L-cup breasts will make her porn debut with S1 No. 1 Style, much like gradol Chika Yuki did last autumn.
Details are still slim about the release -- not least, when it will come out -- but Yu Tano made the announcement on social media last week and it has been confirmed by S1.
The announcement has sent her digital photo book shooting to the stop of the charts.
If you are into bakunyu mega-busty AV performers like Hitomi Tanaka, then ...
Former gravure idol Chisato Morishita now a university teacher
May 2, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
Former race queen and gravure idol Chisato Morishita is committed to launching a career as a politician for the conservative Liberal Democratic Party.
As reported here before, she stood for election in Miyagi Prefecture in 2021. Though ultimately unsuccessful, she is still hoping to win a seat at the next election. By chance, we actually passed through the area earlier this year and saw lots of posters for her dotting the landscape.
Now aged 42, the unmarried Morishita was one of the biggest gradols in the late 2000s and a regular face on TV. Her last gravure shoot was in around 2019 with ...
First pictures from Satomi Kaneko (Kiho Kanematsu) porn debut
April 4, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
In early March, we reported on the exciting news that former AKB48 idol and nude model Satomi Kaneko was to make her porn debut as Kiho Kanematsu, after she had supposedly retired in 2023.
We can now share the first preview images from her debut, which comes out from Muteki, a specialist is such crossovers.
The 34-year-old's first AV, the 176-minute 18Gold (TEK00099), was released on digital formats on April 2 .
We have yet to see the AV. If you've caught it already, please let us know your assessment of the quality. From the previews, it looks quite conventional, though Kaneko/Kanematsu's ...
Ex-HKB48 idol Miku Tanaka gets hot and steamy in Cinderella Complex TV show sex scene
March 18, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
Former HKT48 idol Miku Tanaka is trying to build an acting career and has cleverly chosen to do so with a role that gets hot and steamy.
In the TV drama Cinderella Complex, which started airing in Japan from March 1, she has a sex scene with her lover in bed.
Don't get too excited if Mikurin is a favorite of yours: this being a drama on mainstream Japanese TV, there's no actual nudity.
She and her slightly older lover have sex under the sheets, with her nipples and side boob just hidden by his arm. It's quite a tease.
Miku Tanaka was a member of HKT48, the Fukuoka-based sister ...
Ex-AKB48 idol Satomi Kaneko to make porn debut as Kiho Kanematsu
March 5, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
The former AKB48 idol Satomi Kaneko officially retired last year and we thought it was the last we would see of her.
How wrong we are. Today comes the happy news that Satomi Kaneko is to make her porn debut with the Muteki label -- which specializes in such industry crossover debuts -- and under the name Kiho Kanematsu (金松季歩).
It is common, often for contractual reasons, for idols to change their professional name when transition into porn, or even just when switching management agencies. Kaneko/Kanematsu announced her new professional name about a week ago, along with a new shoot ...
Going down on Mariko Shinoda in latest episode of adultery TV drama Rikon Shinai Otoko
January 29, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
The previous episode teased us with a preview that looked good. They didn't lie.
We reported last week about Rikon Shinai Otoko (The Man Who Doesn’t Divorce), the buzzy new TV drama starring ex-AKB48 idol Mariko Shinoda in a post-divorce comeback role as an adulteress, cheekily riffing on her own marital issues (in which she was accused of an affair).
Since it's showing on mainstream Japanese TV, there's no actual nudity -- so don't get too excited if you want to see the 37-year-old in the buff -- but it's pretty explicit for all that, including a doggy sex scene.
And that was just the ...
Rin Okabe graduates AKB48 with a glimpse of her ass
January 23, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
Yesterday we reported on AKB48 alum Mariko Shinoda, who is attempting to recover from her adultery and divorce scandal by playing an adulteress in a TV drama.
Now here's another AKB48 lady who is on the verge of leaving the supergroup and, in a (desperate?) bid to make a splash as she graduates, has shown fans a flash of her butt.
The slinky 27-year-old is publishing her first photo book and the previews reveal her naked rear -- or rather, show Okabe herself deliberately pulling down her bikini bottom to expose her butt.
Okabe will graduate AKB on March 27, with her as-yet-untitled ...
Ex-AKB48 Mariko Shinoda sex scenes in adultery drama Rikon Shinai Otoko
January 22, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
If you want to recover from a scandal and rebuild your career, one tried-and-tested method is to reinvent yourself: take a different kind of acting role, do something more provocative.
Previously, female Japanese idols, actors, and models in a career slump have dropped their clothes for sexually explicit roles or have appeared in nude shoots. Angelica Michibata's nude photo book after her scandal is a case in point, as was Maki Goto's after her rumored affair.
Former AKB48 idol Mariko Shinoda found herself in a personal and professional pickle when her alleged adultery was exposed in 2022. ...
Ex-porn star (and mother) Sola Aoi gives first filmed interview in four years
November 14, 2023
/ Tadashi Anahori
Former top adult video star Sola (Sora) Aoi has given her first on-camera interview in four years.
Once the most famous Japanese porn star, and popular also in other parts of Asia, Sora Aoi announced her marriage at the start of 2018 to DJ Non.
When she then announced she was pregnant at the end of that year, she experienced quite a lot of abuse on social media. Despite not appearing in porn since 2011, many trolls still criticized her for becoming a mother, saying it was "sad for the children."
Now aged 42, Sola Aoi has two kids with DJ Non. She gave birth to twins in May 2019.
She ...
Ex-AKB48 idol Nana Okada comes out as nonbinary
November 8, 2023
/ Tadashi Anahori
In a recent interview with Aera, the former AKB48 idol Nana Okada (岡田奈々) has come out as nonbinary.
They don't explicitly also come as bisexual but the 26-year-old does say they are attracted to both men and women, and that they dated a woman back in 2017 (during their tenure in AKB48, which started in 2012).
As readers will remember, Okada was fired from AKB48 over a dating scandal in 2022. Until then, she had been one of the most popular members of the idol group.
For a more in-depth analysis of the interview and what Okada reveals, we recommend this thread. Okada is currently ...
