Yamagata Education Board announced on October 17 that it had suspended a foreign assistant language teacher for six months for taking photos up girls' skirts in Tokyo.
The unnamed man in his thirties works at high schools in the prefecture.
The teacher is accused of using his phone to take pics up women's skirts on escalators in Tokyo Station and a mall on a trip to the capital last month. At the mall, another woman realized and alerted a security guard, who was able to apprehend the foreign and call police.
He was taken for questioning by Tokyo police, who then told his workplace.

A young Chilean woman recently provoked a lot of ire in Japan when she posted a video of herself doing pull-ups on the gate of a Shinto shrine.
The influencer Marimar Pérez-Banus subsequently issued an apology and deleted the video, but we will probably not get the same from another young lady who posed semi-naked at a popular tourist attraction in Japan.
As netizens have discovered, there are actually lots of pics of foreigners doing silly things at places like Fushimi Inari, a Shinto shrine in Kyoto famous for its vast numbers of red torii gates that form labyrinthine corridors.
Here is ...
Japanese porn parodies are two a penny. Every few weeks seems to offer up yet another colorful AV parody of a franchise or real-life incident. We reported on the new Frieren: Beyond Journey's End porn parody last week, for example.
But though at times inventive or even provocative, these parodies tend to have lowish production values and, let's be honest, are basically a cash grab.
And so people have reacted with surprise at the high quality of the porn parody of My Dress-Up Darling (その着せ替え人形は恋をする), a manga, anime, and (since this month) TV drama on MBS, because ...
Mana Sakura was recently admitted to hospital, suffering from pneumonia.
When Sakura shared news about her health on social media earlier this month, it sparked a lot of unfounded online speculation that she found offensive. Some netizens even claimed that she had AIDS.
Sakura has reacted with fury to these allegations, issuing the corrective and promising to consult with her agency about launching a lawsuit against the people who spread the rumors about her having AIDS.
The 31-year-old Sakura, who is also a novelist (four and counting, and one was adapted into a movie) and director, is ...
We could, if we were so willing, fill the digital pages of this blog solely with news about porn debuts. After all, incredible woman make incredible debuts in the JAV industry basically every week.
That would probably be as exhausting as it would be exhaustive, but we hope you'll forgive us from indulging this temptation a bit, a mere two days after we reported on the porn debut of former Malcolm Mask McLaren idol mone as Tomo Shiraiwa.
Because frankly, we think this one looks awesome.
Yui Sayama (佐山由依) debuts this week for E-Body in a 163-minute release (EBWH00168) directed by ...
Yuki Mamiya is one of the most reliable actresses in Japan when it comes to nudity.
The star has spent a decade or so doing both nude shoots and nude sex scenes in movies, both low-budget sexploitation and more mainstream erotic films.
Examples include The Crawler in the Attic, Sweet Whip, Chotto Kawaii Iron Maiden (aka The Torture Club), and Wet Woman in the Wind.
She used to perform under the name Yuki Mogami and now apparently goes by Yuki Masuda, which is how she is credited for The Key – Professor's Pleasure.
We missed it at the time but this erotic, which came out in Japan in ...
Malcolm Mask McLaren is a punk rock idol group in Japan with one of the most bizarre names there is. It originally formed in 2015 and the lineup fully disbanded in April 2023.
The group subsequently relaunched with an entirely new lineup of members in May 2023, but one former idol in the group, mone, has decided to start a very different career: as a porn star.
Mone was a member of Malcolm Mask McLaren from March 2016 to September 2018, singing vocals on the first three singles as well as the eventual album at the end of 2016.
She is now making her adult video debut as Tomo Shiraiwa ...
Way back in March last year, we wrote a brief write-up about Akari Fukunaga's nude sex scenes in the movie Hand (2022).
It's a literary pink (sexploitation) film, based on a novel and part of Nikkatsu's revived Roman Porno series.
We've finally got around to taking a closer look at the film and we're glad we did, because it contains several more sex scenes, including one with former musician Natsuko Obuchi.
The titular hand is Akari Fukunaga's as she masturbates with a sex toy.
There's a great sex scene in which she and her lover start having sex on a sofa. He sucks her small Japanese ...
We recently wrote about an inventive porn parody of a long-running horror movie franchise.
Sometimes these parodies go beyond the cheeky and amusing, and are brazen or even legally dubious. A porn parodying the DJ Soda groping incident was ultimately pulled from release after an outcry.
The Japanese adult video industry's latest target for parody is the popular manga and anime Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, a franchise that is also increasingly famous overseas.
Called Premature Ejaculation Free Rental Pussy (早漏のフリーレンタルマ〇コ), which in Japanese is read similar to ...
The gravure idol and actor Asuka Kishi has returned to the pages of Weekly Playboy for the first time in six years.
The 33-year-old Asuka Kishi has focused more on acting roles of late, landing a number of credits in TV dramas. Known for her H cup, she made her debut in 2012. Her last print photo book was Culmination, which came out in 2022.
The mini-comeback shoot appears in the Weekly Playboy issue that went on sale on October 7. A digital photo book is also now on sale.
It's not the cover shoot -- that honor goes to Mizuho Habu, formerly of Sakurazaka46 -- but it's one of ...
