Brian Thompson murder suspect Luigi Mangione wants to ban Tenga in Japan

/ Tadashi Anahori
The world is gripped by the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the arrest of prime suspect Luigi Mangione.
People are trying to figure out his exact motives, with figures on both sides of the political spectrum hoping to claim him as a champion against corporate greed.
The 26-year-old is highly intelligent and well educated, it seems, and even made a trip to Japan back in May.
In social media postings, he made comments about the East Asian country, including his suggestions for how to fix the low birth rate. Don't worry, it doesn't involve shooting any more CEOs.
How can we ...

December 10, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
The porn star Ayumi Kuroki (黒木歩) made her debut in 2010. She hasn't had many credits in the past few years but has not officially retired. Her most recent release is a lesbian-themed production that comes out later this month.
The performer is now 43 and very much in the MILF/jukujo category. She also directs and sings in a band, and holds private events for fans.
She gave an interview to Spa! last month in which she described what it is like to raise a child while pursuing her line, similar to a interview that married porn star and mom Marina Shiraishi also gave the publication in ...
Anri Sakaguchi offers crazy long list of sex work extras
December 9, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
In tabloid terms, Anri Sakaguchi is the gift that keeps on giving.
The celebrity, who is the daughter of an actress and golfer, and was a feature on TV shows in the 2010s, has had a checkered career and past, to say the least.
She entered porn in 2016 pay off her debts. She also did a full-frontal nude shoot.
After her porn career ended, she was twice arrested for extortion and trespassing.
Since then, it's an open secret that she (like other minor celebrities) makes ends meet by compensated dating.
More recently, she married and then swiftly split from a trans man.
The latest Anri ...

Former Japanese porn star Rei Chinatsu (千夏麗) has been arrested for an alleged romance scam with a man she met through social media.
The 26-year-old has appeared in several adult video releases, with 12 titles currently listed on Fanza, Japan's largest online porn retailer, though this includes anthology-type releases with footage from multiple performers' previous releases. Most of her releases have a schoolgirl theme and seem to date from 2019. Her other performer name was Nozomi Nakase.
She is not currently active as a professional performer, it seems.
The allegation is that ...
Ex-SDN48 Serina releases new photo book at 39
December 5, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
The gravure comebacks are arriving thick and fast. The end of the year is turning into a bit of a nostalgia blitz.
Just after Chinatsu Wakatsuki's return to gravure after a 19-year gap and similar highly anticipated comebacks by the likes of Rina Aizawa and Rina Koike, here's another lady who used to be a staple of gravure magazines.
Serina, formerly of AKB48 spin-off group SDN48, was a big part of our lives in the early 2010s.
SDN48, as readers with long memories may recall, was a short-lived music idol group formed to be a sexier version of AKB48. It failed to catch on and disbanded in ...
Chinatsu Wakatsuki makes gravure comeback after 19 years
December 4, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
Chinatsu Wakatsuki has made a surprise gravure comeback with a cover shoot for the current issue of Weekly Young Jump.
Chinatsu Wakatsuki was one of the biggest female celebrities of the 2000s, known for her cute butt that she frequently showed off.
She is now 40 and married with two children, having had a shotgun wedding in 2012. She remains a fairly common face on TV.
Wakatsuki has rewarded her fans with this return to gravure, apparently her first such shoot for a gravure magazine in 19 years. (It might be mere coincidence that she left her management agency of 23 years back in ...
Former cram school teacher Rui Shido strips off for debut photo book
December 3, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
The internet recently went bonkers over the arrival of former Morning Musume idol Maki Goto's nipples, not least because she is almost 40 and it might be her last hurrah.
But a younger star, 25-year-old Rui Shido (紫藤るい), has set a precedent for doing nudity early on her career with her new photo shoot, which appears in Weekly Friday.
The gravure idol used to be known as Yuuri Rukawa, under which name she worked as a junior idol from the age of eight.
She is also a former cram school teacher, though her shoot reveals assets that surely would have distracted her students, ...
39-year-old Maki Goto goes nude in new photo book flos
December 1, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
Former Morning Musume music idol Maki Goto has caused a sensation with her new photo book, flos
Many years ago, she did some great semi-nudes shoots (one on a bed showing off her naked side and barely hiding her tits, and another where she lies naked on a sandy beach).
Gomaki, as she is known to fans, married in 2014 and has two kids, but her image was hit by allegations of adultery with her former boyfriend, leading to a public apology in 2019. Her husband sued the boyfriend for several million yen.
She has subsequently made a comeback as a singer and model.
Part of this comeback was her ...
Ex-STU48 Yuka Oki makes gravure splash with revealing shoot
November 29, 2024
/ Tadashi Anahori
Yuka Oki has just graduated STU48, the Setouchi-based version of AKB48, and seems determined to make a name for herself.
And as past members of the AKB and Nogizaka sister groups have demonstrated (most recently Miku Tanaka and Ruka Kitano), stripping off is a surefire way to get attention.
She hasn't done quite that, but Oki has done probably her sexist shoot yet.
Aptly titled "Breaking Compliance," Oki's shoot for Flash sees her switch from music idol to gravure idol with aplomb, wearing a figure-hugging leotard or swimsuit that buttons up along the middle.
The high-cut item really ...
