It's true that we don't talk enough about vibrators on this little blog of ours, since we tend to have our hands full covering all the latest developments in Japanese adult video, gravure, onaholes, dolls, and more.
But that's not to say we aren't looking. Far from it.
We recently spotted a novel series of vibrators that recall another line, the aptly named Amazing Beasts dildos by Daimaoh inspired by the genitalia of dolphins, wolves, and dragons.
The Love Vibe series of toys by SSI is a colorful reinterpretation of the classic rabbit vibrator, taking the "bunny ears" part that is ...
Tenga SVR One Vibe wearable toys for couples seriously enhances intimacy
January 17, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
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 ...
Deino collaboration toys explore isopod sex, steampunk character fantasies
May 24, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
We have all harbored a few weird fantasies in our time, but how many have wondered what it's like to have sex with insects or an amputee?
That first fetish is explored by some more extreme sections of the adult video market, as we have blogged about before, but also appears in a few toys, such as this recent one that caught our beady eye.
The Mushi Kan Isopod Sex Vibrator is essentially what the name would suggest: in the words of Kanojo Toys, it "replicates the wiggling, writhing movements of a small creature crawling around and pleasuring you down there with its body and ...

The name, like the coloring, references the changing of the momiji maple leaves that transform Japan's parks and mountains into vivid tones of red during October and November.
Like others in the ...
Tenga Iroha Ukidama: A floating mood light and vibrator for sensual female bathing pleasure
April 29, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
It's something of an open secret in the Japanese adult toys industry right now that many of Tenga's most exciting developments are to be found not in its classic range of male masturbation aids, as awesome as they still are, but among its innovative lineup of sex toys for ladies.
Of course, regular readers will need no introduction to the Iroha series, which comprises the core of Tenga's female pleasure items.
We are pleased to share the latest evolution in this series: the Iroha Ukidama Floating Light-Up Vibrator.
Is it a mood light? Is it a bathing relaxation device? Is it a vibrator? ...
Tenga turns to traditional craft toys as inspiration for Iroha Pleasure Item Temari vibrator
May 23, 2019
/ Tadashi Anahori
After having revolutionized male masturbation, most of Tenga's most exciting recent toys have been catered towards women -- and it's about time too!
The latest in the Iroha series of vibrators is the Tenga Iroha Pleasure Item Temari, inspired by classic temari craft balls. Now that's not a sentence we expected to be writing any time soon, but there you have it. Clearly the design bods at Tenga are looking to different horizons than the rest of us mortals. And when the results are this visually stunning and functionally impressive, it's evident that embroidery craft balls was the right choice ...
Cute Japanese student with short hair posts OMG nude selfies
December 21, 2018
/ Tadashi Anahori
The latest example of uraaka joshi "dirty girl" in Japan who likes to post nude selfies for male admirers online is this cutie with short hair.
She's been described as an 18-year-old high school student but we reckon she looks a little too old and also appears to live alone. Instead, we think this pretty girl is a college student, perhaps a fresher. We also wonder if she might be Korean, since she has that kind of look (in a very good way).
Here are a few highlights from the vast number of nude selfies she has posted.
Although she adds a few "OMG" and other decorations to the images, ...
Tenga (again) revolutionizes female vibrators with Iroha Pleasure Item Rin
September 27, 2018
/ Tadashi Anahori
Tenga continues to proceed at full steam with developing its stunning line of designer Iroha vibrators.
After opening a special girl-friendly pop-up in a department store in the summer, the latest stage in its female adult toy revolution is the chic, modern, yet simultaneously classic-looking Tenga Iroha Pleasure Item Rin.
This is a mini series of two vibes in different colours: the Rin Hanakogane in gold and the Rin Takeakane in red. These are stick-shaped vibrators beautifully designed with an orb-like tip.
If a stick sounds too unwieldily to handle, rest assured it is ...
Tenga opens pop-up in department store to offer Iroha vibrators for women
August 23, 2018
/ Tadashi Anahori
Here's some positive news.
In Japan, it has become increasingly easier to buy adult toys. Everyone knows the notorious section for costumes and toys amid the chaos that is a Don Quijote store, but regular drug stores also have a Tenga or two, not to mention plenty of lubes.
But what about an ordinary department store? In Japan, they would seem to have stores selling pretty much everything, but you surely won't find onaholes on sale in Isetan.
Change may be on the horizon, however. Tenga has opened a pop-up store inside the Daimaru department store in Umeda, Osaka, running from August ...
