Just when you thought you'd seen and tried everything Tenga has to offer, along comes the Apple of the adult industry with another great masturbation toy to prove that there is still so much more to explore about self-pleasure aids.
Returning to a somewhat simpler design that recalls the Tenga Eggs or Tenga 3D, the Tenga Bobble forgoes the elaborate casing of the Flip Hole series or the outer cup of the Tenga Cup toys, and puts the focus squarely on the inner contours of the gel sleeve.
The masturbator is currently available in two, brilliantly named versions: Crazy Cubes or Magic ...
Tenga is, as regular readers will know, one of Japan's leading adult toy brands, and surely the one that has the most success overseas, helped by its very clean and universal design (a far cry from the kind of highly Japanese style of hentai illustrations you find on box art on releases by Tama Toys, Toy's Heart, and so on).
A Tenga-related topic we often like to discuss here on this blog are the various marketing campaigns that the company does, such as the rocket it launched into space or its hat for dispensing tissues.
In addition, Tenga also does serious research related to sex and ...
It's Valentine's Day season, which means one thing in the adult industry: Tenga chocolates.
Yes, the Apple of the Japanese sex toys industry has established a curious side line in chocolate sweets. It began in 2019 and continued in 2020. We're not sure what happened in 2021, but the good news is that Tenga is back in 2022 with three new Tenga Chocolate products.
In keeping with the maxim that if it ain't broke, don't fix it, the basic premise remains the same: the chocolates come in packaging that resembles a classic Tenga Cup and the individually wrapped chocolates themselves looked like ...
The best kind of sex and intimacy is hands-on. Toys are great but can create extra layers of elastomer or other material between yourself and your own body, or even your hands and your partner's body. There is the risk of things becoming clumsy, clunky, or even mechanical. Sex is, after all, not like driving a car.
Japan's most design-conscious adult brand, Tenga, is well aware of all this, hence it came up with the SVR vibrator series of "wearable" toys. These smoothly textured vibes have rings for slipping on a finger or two, allowing you to stimulate your partner's vagina or clitoris ...
You've perhaps heard about the Tenga Pocket Hat. Maybe you got the Tenga iPhone case.
But what about Tenga shoes? Yes, that's what self-professed performer Bokunou (ぼく脳, literally "my brain") has crafted, using the insides of a Tenga toy -- the inner coating that provides such awesome stimulation on your cock -- as unique decoration for the midsoles on a customized pair of sneakers.
The sneakers are a simple gray and white, with "TENGA" written in red. It's not clear which Tenga toy he used as the material for the footwear, but the white color suggests it came from several Tenga ...
'Tis the season for celebration, after all, and Tenga has reached a major milestone.
And a very profitable one at that: 100 million sales of its Tenga Cup series.
The Tenga Cup 100 Million Sales Commemoration Set is a special release to celebrate this phenomenal achievement.
As regular readers know, we love writing about Tenga -- sometimes called the Apple of the Japanese adult industry -- and couldn't resist this story. We have grown old with Tenga: the Cup came out first in 2007 and has morphed into so many versions over the years since. Along with the Tenga Egg, the Cup secured the ...
We were waiting with bated breath and they delivered: Tenga, Japan's top adult brand, has blasted off to the edge of space!
The whole launch of the Tenga Rocket -- part of the Space Tenga project implemented with such partners as entrepreneur Takafumi Horie -- was broadcast live online.
The MOMO6 rocket left terra firma on July 31 from the launch site in Hokkaido, achieving speeds of around 92 km some four minutes after launch and succeeding in releasing its payload. It marks the first such space launch by a private enterprise in Japan.
As previously reported, the payload was a ...
Japan is often praised for its minimalist design aesthetic. This is then thrown to the wind (or rather, the dogs!) when you go to a love hotel and encounter garishness that makes Gaudí architecture look positively tame in comparison.
Similarly for web design, where Rakuten rules supreme despite its utter UX clusterfuck. If Amazon is like shopping in a modern supermarket, Rakuten is like walking unprepared into a medieval souk!
But this chaotic, garish design has its own kind of aesthetic, a craftsmanship that deserves respect and generates a certain culture. Now Rakuten and love hotels are ...
Remember Onanist Take, the somewhat eccentric adult content creator who previously had a bath with 400 masturbator toys?
Well, for this next stunt, he decided to try his hand at some DIY.
He attempted to convert a standard Tenga onacup into a powered automatic masturbator. (Of course, he could have just bought a Tenga Gyro Roller, which basically does just that.)
Onanist Take used a Tenga Cup in combination with a floor fan, whose protective cover he had removed. He attached the cup to the middle rather crudely with tape and then gamely slide his cock into the cup.
He pressed the "on" ...
Tenga, the designer Japanese adult brand who reinvented masturbation toys for men, has extraterrestrial ambitions.
As reported earlier this year, Tenga hopes to launch a branded rocket into space in partnership with Takafumi Horie's civilian spaceflight company, Interstellar Technologies.
This is an insanely expensive publicity campaign -- the latest in a long-running series of original stunts and gimmicks by the adult brand to attract attention. It has certainly succeeded this time, generated a ton of ink for its efforts.
The actual 10-meter (33-feet) rocket was unveiled last week. ...
