With the exception of some tennis players, women in sports get a bad rap. And in Japan, most of the famous women involved with sports tend to fall on the burly side of the equation, especially the wrestlers. Even Nadeshiko Japan, the much-publicized World Cup-winning national female soccer team, are hardly on the "hot" side. No one whacks one out while thinking of those ladies, we suspect... But one supreme exception is volleyball, where the players have legions of fans. A couple of years ago we featured these chunky-thighed lasses with cute faces but we can't resist ...

Boyfriend "rental" services have been around in Japan for a while and there are even virtual versions. You can get "old guys", young guys, and of course there are female equivalents too. It's not so different from the douhan system, where a host or hostess goes on a date with a client before taking them to the club for (expensive) drinks. Kotaku reported on a Japanese morning TV segment showcasing boyfriend rental services. Although the subject isn't new, there were some interesting nuggets of information. While there are much cheaper options out there, this service was ...

A judge has made a ruling which should mean hostesses and hostess club mama-san's (the older ladies who own and/or manage the club) can rest easy. The wife of a CEO who spent around seven years having an affair with the mama of a Ginza hostess club sued her husband's sexual partner for "mental suffering" she had caused. She wanted compensation of ¥4 million ($32,000). The judge said that the Ginza mama-san was just doing makura eigyo ("pillow business"), the euphemism for when people have sex to further their career or do business. In other words, the Ginza hostess mama-san only ...

On a recent trip to Kyodo, a station in Setagaya, Tokyo, we were amused to see the Colonel Sanders outside the local KFC had been decorated in a black and red costume. Naturally our first thoughts were: that's a Tenga theme. It suspiciously matches the color design for the Tenga SD Deep Throat Hard Cup toy. I have no proof that KFC was indeed being cheeky here. It might be just some anime reference or a samurai armor costume. They frequently dress up their famous mascot mannequins outside the outlets depending on the season. But we can't imagine why else they would ...

Yes, finally! Japan is getting its first ever shunga exhibition, opening in Tokyo this September. While legally you can't show genitalia in films, porn or even art (as Megumi Igarashi has found out to her misfortune), Japan has an immensely rich history of sexually explicit art and erotica. The important thing to remember about shunga (literally "spring paintings") is that they were created by some of the most famous and popular woodblock print artists, including Hokusai and Utamaro. Sure, they were more niche than the most iconic prints -- but they were still part of the ...

Joining the recent silliness of Condom Day in the (ever-increasing) list of odd anniversaries in Japan, "Kiss Day" is celebrated on May 23rd because it is the day that the film Hatachi no seishun (20-Year-Old Youth) was released in 1946. In case you're not a film buff, that's the movie that featured the first ever kiss scene, though the stars may have had gauze between them. To celebrate, Edition Aoyama, a club in Akasaka, Tokyo, is holding an event on Saturday where couples (not necessarily male-female, it seems) are invited to kiss each other through an acrylic plastic ...
