The model, occasional actress, and former AKB48 music idol Mariya Nagao continues to get more alluring the older she gets.
Slinky. Cheeky. Sexy. Mariya-chan has got it all in abundance.
On the verge of 30 (she hits that magic number in March next year), she has thankfully not gone the way of most AKB idols and disappeared into the ether, but still fields regular invites to do gravure photo shoots, model jaw-dropping lingerie, and publish photo books.
In recent months, she has been in the gossip columns because the tabloids found out that she has a boyfriend who is a former host.
In early ...
Slinky sexplot Kanami Takasaki is to release her second, hotly anticipated photo book.
Blooming Bud comes out on January 25, 2024, from Transworld Japan, which specializes in publishing idol books and calendars.
It features Takasaki, who is known for her girl-next-door looks, in a more alluring, sensual style, including a cover image where she is posing naked at the sea, holding up a sheer piece of fabric. As the title of the book suggests, 26-year-old Takasaki is possible entering a more mature stage in her career.
Blooming Bud has a beach theme and was shot in Hawaii. To promote it, ...
We are pleased to see that the impossibly sexy and cute gravure idol and actress Yuno Ohara is to release a new photo book.
The as-yet untitled photo book comes out on January 31 next year. It marks her third photo book, with her debut release released back in 2018.
Three preview images are available at the moment, with more sure to come in the near future.
Yuno Ohara is no stranger to these digital pages. We previous covered her (non-nude) sex scenes in drama series Sweat and Soap last year and The Young Boys with Secrets earlier this year.
The 24-year-old also did a hot shoot for ...
Long-running gravure magazine Weekly Playboy is celebrating its 57th anniversary with a photo shoot featuring the titular number of up-and-coming gradols.
The 57 nubile ladies appeared in white swimsuits in a classroom and other settings in the ambitious photo shoot.
Most of the idols are lesser-known names just starting out on their careers.
There is also an accompanying video showing some behind-the-scenes footage.
The "Nippon gravure" shoot, which was done by veteran gradol photographer Luckman, is published over 16 pages of the November 13, 2023, issue, which has Hina ...
The former gravure idol Shizuha Takimoto (瀧本雫葉) is making her adult video debut.
The gorgeous, pale-skinned beauty's first porn production comes out via Prestige's Genesis label on November 24.
In addition to the 230-minute release (CTKTGNI-002), the 24-year-old has also just released her first nude photo book in mid-September as a Kindle and on-demand paperback.
If we are honest, we never knew who she was, which left us wondering if her gravure career was very obscure or she worked as a gradol under a totally different name.
It seems that most of the internet ...
When top gravure idol Tomomi Morisaki announced her long-rumored retirement, there was speculation about the exact reasons. Was she leaving the entertainment industry for good? Now that she was in her thirties, was she just quitting while she was ahead and before the glamor model offers dried up? Did she want to focus on her general TV celebrity gigs?
It seems that the answer was that classic Japanese entertainer one: romance and a family.
Now, just before the release of her retirement DVD and Blu-ray, comes news reports that the hottie is "seriously dating" a baseball player, Shota ...
Busty gravure idol Yuno Ohara delighted us last year in the TV drama Sweat and Soap with her erotic scenes that, well, emphasized her mammary assets.
The scenes, as hot and steam as they were, stopped short of showing us actual nudity. For that, you basically have to go to Netflix.
Yuno Ohara is back in another TV drama, in which she is a seductive force on both viewers and her co-star.
In Himitsu o motta shonentachi (The Young Boys with Secrets) (2023), which is showing late on Friday nights on NTV since October 7, she plays the lead, a 19-year-old girl who disappeared three years ...
The former Japanese porn star Shunka Ayami is said to be dating the male singer Ryoichi Tsukada.
The 36-year-old Tsukada is a member of the boy band ABC-Z, which is part of the roster of troubled (and recently renamed and soon-to-dissolve) agency Johnny & Associates.
Ayami reportedly introduced Tsukada to her parents last month, and they have supposedly taken overseas trips together.
Weekly Bunshun claimed the scoop when earlier this week it published photos of the two together traveling by Shinkansen. They certainly make a glamorous couple.
Tsukada took a well-publicized break ...
Alluring jukujo gradol Tomomi Morisaki has previously shown off her naked butt and nipples. What more could she have to show her fans?
Not much, it seems, because she has announced her "retirement release."
There was some confusion about this, perhaps an indication of behind-the-scenes shenanigans or uncertainty on the idol's part. In July, Morisaki held an event to mark the release of her 22nd DVD and denied she was retiring from gravure as had been misreported.
Either way, it appears the timing was right now in the autumn. Her 23rd image DVD and Blu-ray, suitably titled Lady Climax, is ...
Actor and model Ayame Misaki is continuing her gravure comeback, which began in earnest in 2021.
This followed her divorce and roles in more serious films, after an early career in gravure and somewhat more frivolous TV roles.
After the success of her sexy, summery photo book earlier this year, she is returning in the autumn with a new photo book in Kodansha.
Some previews of the as-yet-unnamed publication appeared in the September 8 issue of weekly magazine Friday. Not much else is known at this stage, other than it's shot by Akinori Ito. Based on the quality of these previews, we can't ...
