We recently discovered this "celebrity sweaty sex game." Unfortunately, we don't know the original source. We'd love to provide full credit, so please let tell us in the comments if you know. Which celebrity would you like to have "sweaty sex" with? The rules are simple. The idea is that you must get 10 points. Sex with each celebrity rewards you with certain points. You can choose the same person as many times as you like, but you have to stay within the same group and get exactly 10 points. Who will you choose to get your quota of points? It's more difficult than it looks! In Group A ...

The tabloids are all of a flutter over rumors that recently retired top porn star Yua Mikami (30) is sleeping with not one but two boy band singers. According to the Weekly Bunshun, Kento Senga (32) of Kis-My-Ft2 spent around three hours at Mikami's apartment on the night of August 31. A few hours later, he was apparently followed by Kento Nagao (21) of Naniwa Danshi. The report ignited something of a Twitter firestorm in early September. It's not the first time that Mikami has found herself at the center of such romance rumors. She was previously said to be dating singer Yuya Tegoshi and ...

As announced earlier in the year, the immensely popular Japanese porn star Yua Mikami is to return in August and her final release has just come out from S1 No. 1 Style. The 147-minute release (SSIS00834) comes out on physical format on August 15, following its streaming release at the end of last week. The JAV stunner turns 30 this month and has enjoyed an eight-year career, which is very long by industry standards. She is also probably the most successful and famous example of a Japanese music idol who switched to adult video; in her case, SKE48, where she was known as Momona ...

On Monday came news that Yua Mikami is to retire from porn after a stunning eight-year run in the industry. The announcement isn't a huge surprise, given her age (she turns 30 in August) and length of time in the industry, plus Mikami had also done other things in parallel with her adult video performing, such as being a member of a K-Pop music group (comprising only porn stars), selling NFT art, and designing her own apparel. As regular readers and JAV fans will know well, Yua Mikami used to be a member of the AKB48 spin-off group SKE48. She is one of many AKB-related idols who branched ...

We consider it our mission on this blog to tell the world how amazing Japanese sexuality and sexual subcultures are, but it seems that our work is already done without us realizing it. The entire planet is apparently obsessed with Japanese porn -- at least, if we judge things purely by search results (which is perhaps not the most accurate barometer). Pornhub has announced its biggest search terms of 2022 and we are delighted and intrigued by the results. The main trend worldwide it noted was the rise in porn tagged "reality," perhaps to offset the growing professionalism of "amateur" ...

We have spilled much digital ink on this blog talking about what happens to idols from AKB48 and its sister groups, taking an interest (for obvious reasons) especially in the young ladies who go on to have careers in porn. But what about those same singers-turned-porn stars after they are done with their adult video careers? For some, it's a short stint in the competitive world of JAV. For others, like Yua Mikami, they enjoy years at the very top of the industry. But all things must come to an end. What do they do next? Well, in the case of former AKB48 idol Risa Naruse (who worked in JAV ...

A few months ago, we reported on the exciting news that shibari rope bondage master Hajime Kinoko was creating and selling an augmented reality art installation as an NFT. Well, the NFT boom shows no signs of abating just yet, and others are jumping on the bandwagon. And by others, we mean none other than top Japanese porn star Yua Mikami, who has announced a new project: your NFT. To mark her twenty-eighth birthday, August 16, Yua has collaborated with famed Japanese art director Gugi Akiyama and photographer Yasunari Kikuma to take a special photograph. She will then sell 28 images ...

Yua Mikami, one of the top porn stars, has launched her own apparel brand. Though there are a few notable cases of porn stars forging interesting second careers after they leave the adult industry, it is relatively rare for actresses to maintain a successful second job while still acting in porn releases (though many porn stars do make occasional appearances in movies and TV series, almost always in "sexy" roles). Mikami is one of the most prominent examples of an idol switching from a more mainstream area (in her case, as a music idol with SKE48) to porn, and not losing steam after just a ...

We're starting to wind down for the year, looking forward to Christmas and taking a view back over the months that have passed for the best adult news stories and toys in Japan. Perhaps we'll put that in a post one day soon later in the month. What were the best porn titles we saw during 2018? With so many great debuts throughout the year, that's a harder question to answer. Plus there were all the great AV we saw with established stars. It's a question that becomes especially tricky when exciting releases like this burst onto the market in December, making us forget much of what we ...
