January 9, 2016
/ Tadashi Anahori
Tenga doesn't waste time and money with New Year's cards, as is the custom in Japan.
Instead it produces a special customized version of its Deep Throat Onacup to celebrate 2016, the Year of the Monkey.
The deep red of the cup is paired with a gold monkey face and mizuhiki-style ribbon.
Sadly this isn't for sale but what a great ...

November 27, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Tenga is determined to make the most out of its anniversary year.
2015 is drawing to a close. At the start of the year, Tenga launched the Premium Tenga Vacuum Cup, a truly awesome new arrival in its bestselling onacup series.
It was the first release as part of a massive series of promo events and releases to celebrate 10 years as the Apple of Japan's adult industry.
But Tenga is not content to sit back on those laurels it has earned.
It keeps on going.
Now Tenga is back with two more Premium Vacuum Cups to round out the year. This time they are available in stylish white and black ...
Hot Tenga for warming up your onacup sessions
November 17, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Winter is coming. Soon the nights will be long and the days cold. We won't want to leave your blankets and futons.
Be it's boring to lie there doing nothing. Still, adult toys can also be prohibitively cold at times like this. Making sure you give everything a decent rub beforehand.
Or, if you are Tenga, you just invent a whole new toy.
Hot Tenga is an onacup from their bestselling series that can "self-heat".
Tenga has experimented in the past with these kinds of "warm" products.
The Tenga Onacup Hole Warmer was an insertable "stick"-style device that you heated in a ...
Tenga onacup becomes cosplay outfit… the perfect Halloween costume?
October 22, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
It's almost time for Halloween and the streets of Tokyo -- especially Shibuya -- are guaranteed to be packed with a zillion slinky girls donning slinky costumes (despite the rapidly dropping temperatures).
Well, if you want an original costume, we recommend you check out some of the Japanese outfits available for overseas delivery on Kanojo Toys.
Tenga onacup-inspired outfits are regularly spotted at cosplay and costume events.
Last year in Tokyo during Halloween, three guys were dressed up as Tenga onacups, while a guy in the States seemed ahead of the curve in 2009 with his ...
New English promo video for Tenga Vacuum Controller
June 25, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
To promote the awesome Tenga Vacuum Controller, Tenga's first foray into the sex machine market that was released in March, Tenga has now created a English-language video to explain the features of the toy.
Suction on Your Command!
The world's first vacuum pump that feels amazing to use!
...is how Tenga puts it.
We just love the approach. Tenga wanted to enhance their onacup series and do something electric. Most people go overboard with the tech and design when it comes to a sex machine, but Tenga's idea was, as always, minimal and successful.
Taking the Tenga cup to the ...
Tenga Vacuum Controller: Tenga goes electric to make your onacup better
March 24, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
It had to happen some day.
The Apple of the Japanese sex toys market has finally made a sex machine. Well, sort of. It's not a sex machine in the same world as the A10 Cyclone Robotic Masturbator by Rends.
But Tenga has created its first electric adult toy. And as you'd expect from Tenga, it's very smart and minimalist -- but super effective.
The Tenga Vacuum Controller works with some of its onacup toys (specifically, the Deep Throat Cup Standard, Deep Throat Cup Hard, Deep Throat Cup Soft, Deep Throat Cup Cool, and U.S. Tenga Deep Throat Cup models -- though only new versions ...
Tenga turns ten! Celebrates with Premium Tenga Vacuum Cup onacup
January 16, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Ten years of Tenga! Yes, Japan's most designer brand of sex and masturbation aids ("the Apple of Japanese adult toys") is a decade old.
While we don't wish to blow our own trumpet (no euphemism implied), Kanojo Toys has played a part in their success.
Of course, that Tenga products are now global bestsellers is first of all thanks to the quality and innovation of the series.
But Kanojo Toys and Tokyo Kinky (when it was just the Kanojo Toys blog), along with the old CScout Japan trend blog essentially "broke" the story to the world when Tenga first appeared.
A then small ...
Turning “adult” in style! Free Tenga masturbation aid sex toys at Coming-of-Age Day Event at Asagaya Loft A
January 9, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
This Monday it's Coming-of-Age Day in Japan. On top of being a national holiday for everyone, if you are turning 20 you get to dress up in a kimono and attend a ceremony where you become a legal adult.
Asagaya Loft A has its own take on the rite of passage, though.
While officially the coming-of-age ceremonies are known as seijin-shiki (成人式), Asagaya Loft A is holding an event named the same but with a different Kanji. The seijin-shiki this time is 性人式, literally meaning "sexual person ceremony." When written with those characters, it's slang for a swingers' party (and adds a ...
Tenga coffee tumbler makes Starbucks sexy again
November 25, 2014
/ Tadashi Anahori
Our favorite fashion designer of the moment, Gomi Hayakawa (of feast, the lingerie for flat-chested girls, fame), has come up with a great combination of two great things: Tenga and coffee.
She has come up with a "tumbler" in the Tenga onacup color -- tongue in cheek, of course, and without official endorsement from either Tenga or Starbucks as far as we know.
Hayakawa shared her design idea via Twitter as an example of "Tenga merchandise for girls".
Hayakawa, something of an intelligent-looking cutie herself, hasn't yet made a prototype, it seems, though this is one tumbler ...

And the award for best Halloween costume goes to... this guy dressed up as a Tenga onacup.
He was spotted among the thousands of other Halloween cosplayers out and about on the streets of Shibuya on October 31st.
In the Tokyo Kinky scheme of things, this is the best kind of Halloween costume imaginable.
There were actually three guys around the city dressed up as various examples of Tenga onacup masturbation aids.
Of course, there were plenty of scantily dressed teenaged girls too. They come close runners-up in our competition!
Foreigners have been known to try out ...
