Yura Kano and Toko Namiki sex scenes in I Want You, Nana-chan, Give Me a Bite
March 1, 2023
/ Tadashi Anahori
The fantastically titled I Want You, Nana-chan, Give Me a Bite was released in Japan in 2021 and stars porn star Yura Kano and musician (and ex-AV star) Toko Namiko. After its quiet release in just a few theaters, we are finally catching up with it now.
Directed by Hideo Jojo (who also made the very explicit Believers starring Yui Kitamura), we're not sure the 70-minute film is technically classified as a pink movie but it bears many of the hallmarks of sexploitation.
The low-budget film is about the eponymous Nana (played by Yura Kano), who has to move back home after being fired for ...
Former porn star Kaho Shibuya sues production company over data leak of old adult videos
February 20, 2023
/ Tadashi Anahori
The ex-porn star Kaho Shibuya is suing a production company for ¥7.4 million (about $55,000) for mental distress, infringement of privacy, and harm to her reputation after it neglected to handle unedited data properly, resulting in a leak of footage.
In January 2022, Shibuya ascertained that two of her adult video releases made in September 2016 and released in 2017 had been uploaded to a video site in an unedited (uncensored) format not available commercially. In other words, the genitals on the content were not blurred out in the usual Japanese way (known as "mosaic," a custom in porn as ...
Japanese porn star Eimi Fukada claims men should pay for dates
February 16, 2023
/ Tadashi Anahori
The immensely popular Japanese porn star Eimi Fukada landed herself in hot water this week by complaining on social media that men should pay for dates with girls.
Fukada, who last year held a 24-hour "free hugs" event for fans, reasoned that women already have various expenses that men don't, such as hair styling, makeup, and clothing costs, not to mention the time the women spend getting ready for their date.
She said men should pay the "date charges" -- presumably meaning paying for all the costs of the date (meal, drinks, movie theater tickets, etc.), not an actual "fee" paid to the ...
Newbie Japanese adult video star Momona Koibuchi says sexual harassment inspired her to take up porn
January 3, 2023
/ Tadashi Anahori
Newbie Japanese porn star Momona Koibuchi (恋渕ももな) made her debut in April last year and is currently affiliated with SOD Star. In a recent two-part interview with Bunshun, the busty performer describes her entry into the industry.
After graduating high school, the 23-year-old worked as a civil servant dealing with tax and social health insurance.
But her experience of regular sexual harassment at work during this time led, she claims, her to pivot into a whole different career in adult video. Her male colleagues would ask her about her bra size on a daily basis, or forcibly kissed ...

Happy New Year to all our readers.
We begin 2023 with some pleasant news -- or perhaps disappointing tiding to certain fans.
According to news reports, the prominent Japanese porn star Suzume Mino is to marry the comedian Akihiro Tabuchi.
Tabuchi (37), of the comedy duo Indians, will apparently tie the knot with Suzume Mino some time during 2023, according to news reports on January 1.
Their courtship is not news per se. It emerged in the summer that the two were dating, as reported on this blog.
Mino is now 26. She made her debut in 2019 and is wildly popular for her G-cup breasts. We ...

/ Tadashi Anahori
Not satisfied with the recent rush of gravure idols' photo books? Even the ones like Minami Yamada's that are semi-nude?
Then you need something more reliable.
Minamo burst into our lives in 2021 when she made the switch from a brief stint in gravure (where she worked as Shizuku Taiyo from 2019) to porn, and hasn't looked back since.
One of the most popular adult video performers working in the industry today, she is currently attacked to porn production company T-Powers continues to release JAV titles (we count something like twice as many releases in 2022 as her debut year).
Her first ...
YouTuber mocks ex-porn star Kirara Asuka for plastic surgery, gets legal threat
November 22, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
We love parody -- and so does both the Japanese adult toys industry and the porn industry.
But when does spoofing go too far?
The comedian/YouTuber Chikuwa, who has over 180,000 subscribers to her YouTube channel, was recently forced to apologize after she mocked the ex-porn star Kirara Asuka about having plastic surgery.
The controversy started on November 14, when Chikuwa posted a video in which she did an impression of Kirara Asuka. The former adult video idol, however, was less than amused, and tweeted that she was beginning legal action.
Chikuwa then responded with an apology video ...

The former idol Riona Yuki (結城りおな) who made TV appearances has launched an adult video career, changing her professional name to Alice Shinomiya (四宮ありす).
Netizens are now scrambling to figure out if they ever caught her on TV. Screen grabs indicate that she did appear on certain shows, but did she leave much of an impression? (Japanese TV shows are notoriously overcrowded with celebrities all competing for attention.)
Yuki reportedly belonged to Amuse, a major management agency for music idols and celebrities.
It is a strange case that someone who was a guest on ...

October 21, 2022
/ Tadashi Anahori
Hong Kong have cracked down on foreign sex workers, arresting numerous women on October 17.
According to local news reports, they included the former Japanese porn star Noa Aizawa (愛沢のあ), who has been working as a prostitute from a hotel in the city.
Police have targeted a prostitution ring that was promoting Aizawa's services as a sex worker on social media by using her past adult videos as promotional material. Along with Aizawa, another woman arrested at the hotel was from Thailand. They both entered Hong Kong on travel visas.
In all, 16 women were arrested in a series of ...
