It's a dangerous thing to make your gravure debut in this day and age, when netizens have so many tools and resources at their disposal to do research on your background.
And so when the comely Rio Niita's (新田りお) gravure debut was announced with some fanfare, including an image video DVD release before she had even appeared in the usual gravure magazines, people got interested.
Who is she? Where did she suddenly spring from?
And the rumors are that the 19-year-old model already has a secret past career in porn.
Like most such "image videos," her new DVD (out January 25) ...
Earlier this month, the naked body of 23-year-old Rina Arano was found tied to a tree. Her body showed no obvious sign of injury and the cause of death is still unclear.
A 33-year-old man has been arrested for confining her against her will in his vacation home in Hitachiota, Ibaraki, which is located around a kilometer from where Arano's body was found.
Arano apparently met the Hiroyuki Sanpei, a 33-year-old company employee in Minamiashigara, Kanagawa, for the first time in February or March. It is unclear exactly why she and Sanpei went to his villa in the rural district -- or what took ...
The singer Yuki Miura (三浦由希) has been fired from the four-member Japanese idol group Luna×Holic after it emerged she was moonlighting as a porn star.
Miura's porn debut comes out today, January 25, in Japan. The 60-minute limited edition (SBMO01226) is followed by another 60-minute release (SBMO01208) in late February. The releases, which have swimwear and schoolgirl themes, clearly emphasize the young idol's busty assets.
(To clarify what wasn't clear when we first published this post: these are fully nude videos but don't seem to feature hardcore/on-screen ...
In a recent interview on a late-night TV Tokyo show, adult video actress Rena Momozono (桃園怜奈) shared some of her early experiences of trying to balance a secret porn career with a "normal" life.
The 25-year-old I-cup beauty from Hyogo made her debut anonymously in the industry in 2015 while a student at a prestigious college. In the space of just a month she was identified. She released only three titles with Fitch before retiring in 2016.
She originally wanted to become a gravure idol and went to meet an agency in Tokyo, only to be told that she could only do AV. The 19-year-old ...
It is the height of the Japanese summer, a season typically spent at firework displays, local festivals, and at sport venues. This year, of course, is a bit different and many things are canceled or scaled down (again!) due to the ongoing pandemic.
And so we are thinking back to happier times when we would roam baseball stadiums, admiring both the games and the lovely "beer girls" (uriko) who sell the drinks.
Like booth companions ubiquitous at conventions, these girls have attracted their own fandom. After all, what better way to sell drinks than getting hot young women to walk around ...
The much-younger Japanese wife of a wealthy self-proclaimed "Don Juan," who died under mysterious circumstances in 2018, has finally been arrested.
Saki Sudo (須藤早貴) (25) was detained this week by police over the death of her husband, Kosuke Nozaki, who was famed for his wealth and how he had used it to bed thousands of women.
Nozaki was 77 when he died at his sumptuous property in Wakayama, while Sudo was 22. They had reportedly met by chance at Haneda Airport and quickly married.
It is alleged that she killed him with a meth overdose to get his fortune. She was apparently more ...
Netizens have discovered that a man recently arrested for threatening to kill the director of an anime may have appeared as an extra in an adult video.
In early June, the 21-year-old Fukuta Kishimoto was arrested by Tokyo police on suspicion of posting to an internet bulletin board that he would stab the director of Kemono Friends and "feed his meat to cannibals." He also said he would set fire to the production office, chillingly echoing the horrific attack on the Kyoto Animation office in July 2019 that left 36 dead.
Kishimoto has admitted to the allegations that he made the online ...
Another mainstream idol group has had to jettison one of its members after she was found to be pursuing a secret porn career.
Nijiiro no Hiko Shojo (虹色の飛行少女) is a seven-member group active since 2018.
Kana Usami (宇佐美花菜), who played the idol "character" Hana Midorisawa in the group, was fired on February 27 and replaced. This is after it came to light that she had performed in a porn release. She made her AV debut under the name Azu Kusunoki (楠木あず) for Soft on Demand Star with a release on January 17 (1stars00176). The publicity claimed she was 20 years old. ...
One of two women arrested for stealing over ¥30 million in Kabukicho, Tokyo's major red-light district, had a secret porn past.
Nana Nishikawa (25) and Serina Nagano (22) formed the pair, nicknamed "Reiwa Cat's Eye" after the current era and 1980s manga by Tsukasa Hojo about female thieves. The gang was pursued by Shinjuku police, who had their images from security camera footage in the area.
That's Nishikawa on the left in the picture below.
They targeted the homes of male hosts, stealing millions of yen at a time while they were off at work in Kabukicho's clubs. Following their ...
A Japanese YouTuber has been identified by netizens as a woman in an adult video who jerks a guy off.
Known for her popular videos about plastic models and construction kits, Kino Kosaka (or Kino Kousaka, 香坂きの) appeared in a 2011 "amateur" (shiroto) porn (1sdmt00514) released by SOD Create in which she was one of several women providing handjobs for the camera. The women's faces were originally pixellated in the DVD but somehow netizens could figure out it was her.
On October 1st, she published an emotional response to the accusations on her YouTube channel Mokenchu TV ...
