The Apple of the Japanese sex toys industry, Tenga, has launched yet another product -- and it's a great one.
The Tenga SVR Smart Vibe Ring is great for couples and for solo play.
You can slip the vibe around your fingers and use to pleasure yourself or your partner.
The vibe offers two rhythms of buzzing in five different strength settings.
The ring can also be fitted to the shaft of a male partner's member, allowing mutual, simultaneous stimulation during penetration.
So something for the ladies and something for the gentlemen too.
The ring is also waterproof ...
This is something we don't talk about enough on this blog: sex and the disabled.
Luckily, the non-profit NOIR is doing work to raise awareness of the issue.
Since the release of film The Sessions, the idea of how disabled people can have sex drives has gained more positive traction in America.
What about Japan?
Of course, sex dolls were once available as "rental" and some of the main clients were disabled men who could not have sex otherwise.
In Japan, the film Caterpillar took the theme of a disabled war veteran and his sex drive to an extreme.
More recently, the ...
Hot girls? Check.
Tenga? Check.
Tenga, the Apple of the Japanese adult toy industry, held a birthday party on June 6th at Club Doll in Matsusaka City, Mie Prefecture, and on June 26th at club Leopard in Hiroshima.
It essentially seemed to consist of hot girls playing tracks as DJs and go-go dancers giving out free Tenga Condoms to happy young guys.
The event will tour to other parts of the country (but not Tokyo, it seems).
July 17th: Kyoto (Butterfly)
July 31st: Hokkaido (Riviera)
August 12th: Okayama (Mars)
August 21st: Okinawa (Love ...
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 ...
We are big fans of Tenga. And so is Mana Sakura.
The top Japanese porn princess can be see here showing us how great Tenga is.
Ostensibly toys for the boys, Mana seems to love the brand's classic products like the Tenga onacup and Tenga Egg, and also some of its newer innovations: the Tenga Condoms and Pocket Tenga.
She even has a Tenga bikini.
Short of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe himself promoting Tenga in the Japanese Diet, we can't think of a better endorsement!
Of course, the guys will always be more ...
Forget any offering from Ghibli or the like. The top anime release of the year is already here.
And it's got Tenga in it!
Tenga features in the latest episode of the Nonty series of short anime, where the eponymous character talks to another character called Danny.
Danny sadly has a Tenga onacup stuck on his head and begs Nonty to tell him the best way to get it off.
This one also features a eight-year-anniverary special Tenga onacup and Nonty tries to educate Danny about what Tenga is.
We're stick waiting for Tenga, the Video Game. Perhaps it will look ...
On a recent trip to Kyodo, a station in Setagaya, Tokyo, we were amused to see the Colonel Sanders outside the local KFC had been decorated in a black and red costume.
Naturally our first thoughts were: that's a Tenga theme.
It suspiciously matches the color design for the Tenga SD Deep Throat Hard Cup toy.
I have no proof that KFC was indeed being cheeky here. It might be just some anime reference or a samurai armor costume.
They frequently dress up their famous mascot mannequins outside the outlets depending on the season. But we can't imagine why else they would ...
Some time ago Tenga held a promo event at Enoshima, complete with scantily clad gyaru, DJs and "cool" people showing their love for Tenga Eggs.
Okay, this is from way back in 2012 but we thought the pictures were cool so wanted to share.
Summer is still a little while away but the hot weather in Tokyo this weekend got us in the mood for some action.

Tenga has a habit of turning up in unusual places.
From the garbage on a beach to a Buddhist temple, a business card holder, and even once in the home of comedian Tomonori Jinnai when accidentally shown on a TV show.
Back in 2012 some people stumbled upon this Tenga Egg vending machine in Nakano Broadway, west Tokyo.
It's a gacha-gacha capsule vending machine, which makes sense for the Tenga Egg. You get a single Tenga Egg for ¥500 and if you are lucky enough to get a ticket in your capsule, you can take it inside to the shop to claim a porn DVD.
We don't think this is ...
As we know, religion in Japan is traditionally not conservative or moralistic about sex.
Just look at the Shinto fertility festivals for a perfect example.
Shinto is full of raucous, erotic gods. The islands of Japan itself are said in mythology to have been formed out of sexual union between Izanagi and Izanami.
Shrines apparently have no trouble with people drawing on prayer plaques with bondage illustrations.
Religions run all sorts of non-religious businesses too, such as love hotels.
So we are not really surprised that Buddhism approves of Tenga.
Tenga recently ...
