Meet Asako Tani, stunning TV announcer and aspiring gravure idol

Here at Tokyo Kinky, we consider it our sworn duty to introduce readers to gravure idols who are not only the famous and established names.

It’s a busy and competitive industry, and many gradols can frankly slip between the gaps. Here today, gone tomorrow. Careers can burn out before they have even had a chance to glow.

That’s why we sometimes turn the spotlight on newbies or more minor names in the industry.

Asako Tani (谷あさこ) is, at least for now, one such example.

Born in 1993 in Kanagawa, Tani is technically a TV announcer (presenter) rather than a fully fledged gradol, but she posed for this stunning gravure shoot in a tabloid magazine a few weeks ago. We couldn’t resist sharing the results with our readers.

She’s also smart, having attended the prestigious Hosei University. Alongside her freelance announcer gigs, she has pursued a gravure career, doing her first shoot for Weekly Playboy in March 2017.
