Up-and-coming actress Minami Hamabe is very much in the Emi Takei and Suzu and Alice Hirose "style" of celebrity: admired for her sweet girl-next-door purity. Of course, that doesn't mean she's not a human being with an adult body. As a 21-year-old, she has needs and it would be natural for her to have boyfriends. She was recently forced to deny a rumor that she was in a serious relationship with Ryuga, the 24-year-old vocalist and guitarist of the band Maruritoryuga. Such denials in the Japanese entertainment world often mean little, but we struggle to see why this was even a ...

Right now, tourist resorts deserve our pity. Things were going so well for them until the start of 2020, after which visitors to Japan plummeted (and are now exactly zero, because the borders are closed). Even domestic tourism has dropped after the summer-autumn campaign launched by the government resulted in a spike in coronavirus infections. Onsen hot springs are famously erotic places. They are not just where you go to get clean. You go to bathe with people -- ideally a member of the opposite sex. Sharing a hot spring bath together is a very sensual, sexual experience, and you haven't ...

One of the staples parts of being a gradol, or gravure idol, is posing for a photo session at Sofmap in Akihabara. The women stand there, invariably scantily clad in a bikini while members of the media snap away. This is usually part of a press conference to promote some kind of release or appearance. The photos are ubiquitous: a gradol posed against the squared advertising on the wall behind her. Just occasionally does a photo session stand out. In this case, gravure idol Rin Sakura (桜りん) was going through the standard motions of a session -- in this case, to promote a DVD, her ...

There are nip slips and then there are nip slips. The gravure idol Hikari Hashimoto (橋本ひかり) recently suffered an incident that falls squarely into the latter category. For reasons known only to the people who devise Japanese television content, the idol was recently doing an interview (filmed live and remotely from her home) for the web channel AbemaTV in which she was supposed to whip off her top to reveal her bikini beneath. Unfortunately (or not), her breasts had come loose from the flimsy bikini top (or bikini-style bra) and her right nipple was firmly and delightfully visible ...

Probably the most famous and successful cosplayer in Japan right now, Enako is no stranger to provocative photo shoots. Heck, did you see her as a semi-nude mermaid? But did she inadvertently reveal more than she and her managers intended in a recent photo shoot? That's what netizens are hoping and speculating about in their customary frenzy. Cue lots of zooming-in and squinting at screens. The suggestion is that in this photo, Enako's left nipple (or at least, the areola) is visible. The image was described as a behind-the-scenes shot from a shoot for the August issue of Young Champion ...

From one nip slip to another. Such is the life of the humble Tokyo Kinky blogger. Yesterday we posted an amusing, cautionary tale about gravure idol Mirai Nishijima, who is very active on Twitter and posts daily pictures. Unfortunately when she posted an image of a shoot at a hot spring from a few years ago, she didn't realize that it showed one of her (lovely) nipples. Now another, sweatier example... Japanese television news loves to show random shots of people on the streets during hot weather, demonstrating how the masses are coping with the heat. (For context, it's over 40 C, or 104 ...

The gravure model Mirai Nishijima, known for her slinky body, recently posted a picture of herself enjoying a wash at a hot spring. Netizens with keen eyes, though, were able to spot something that she presumably thought was tastefully hidden: her left nipple, poking proud through the soap suds and asking for attention. It's attention we would be happy to provide! Nishijima has since deleted the tweets (no doubt at the behest of her management), which actually showed pictures from a few years ago. Still, she shouldn't feel too bad. It could have been much worse, as the model Asana Miyamoto ...

Ayaka Miyoshi is one of the most beautiful models and celebrities in Japan. And Japanese television viewers recently had their minds taken off the coronavirus anxieties by seeing what Ayaka Miyoshi looks like when she takes a bath. Admittedly the 23-year-old cutie was wrapped in a tight towel, as is customary when people demonstrate public baths or hot springs on television, but it was still a sight for sore eyes. Even better, the sauna water being particularly hot, Ayaka Miyoshi had to get out quickly -- and netizens have been subsequently parsing the footage for the slightly glimpse of a ...

The popular actress and model Hirose accidentally revealed far more than she had hoped at a publicity event for the cosmetic brand Shiseido's d program. In front of the assembled media, when she was being announced as the official brand spokesperson, it became clear that her attractive, skintight dress -- which had required the young celebrity to go braless -- was showing her right nipple to the world. Halfway through the high-profile session, the comely 21-year-old Hirose seemed to realize her predicament and promptly hid her nipple with her arm, though the damage was done. The photocall ...

We have some sad news to share today. The former K-pop star and actress Sulli (Choi Jin-ri) has been found dead, according to media reports. Known for her pale looks (sometimes paired strikingly with dyed blond hair), she was just 25 years old. The idol was a member of f(x) from 2009 to 2015. She left the group to seek a career in acting, appearing in a 2017 big-budget movie called Real that was supposed to be her break into stardom. Unfortunately the film failed with audiences. As we previously wrote about, the film did have two awesome nude sex scenes, though, showing us what a beauty ...
