The car in front is a Toyota. Really?
Yes, Toyota has proved that otaku are valuable members of its customer base by creating an itasha decorated vehicle especially for the Anime Contents Expo 2013.
The itasha car is available for both the Prius and Vitz models, and has been customized with images from the Girls and Panzers anime.
The cars will also be sold from a showroom in Ikebukuro.
Otaku certainly have enough cash to buy AKB48 singles by the thousands -- but do they have the means to purchase a car? Toyota hopes ...
The movie of the bizarre manga Hentai Kamen, about a hero who wears panties on his face, has released a suitably odd trailer.
Apparently Hentai Kamen's groin has the potential to block phone signals, obstruct camera lens and even blaze light to punish the selfish members of the audience.
It is actually a parody of the much-mocked "No More!" video that is featured before showings of movies in Japanese cinemas, warning people not to make illegal recordings of films.
Hentai Kamen is released in Japan on April ...
...if these pictures are to believed, showing a group of high school students engaged in some very well-orchestrated recreations of Dragon Ball powers.
And it's not just the girls...
So, if you are thinking of trying to seduce a Japanese high school girl, be ...
There are people with smell fetishes everywhere and we are not sure if there are more in Japan -- or whether the Japanese are simply much better at integrating their fetishes into products and social structures.
Either way, you can find a ton of pretty amazing smell fetish goods out there.
We went shopping...

Japanese Virgin Girl Sweat Spray
And if it's just perspiration you are after, try this virgin sweat spray, which is great for adding to clothes, ...
They might have chunkier thighs and muscular arms, but a new generation of Japanese women's volleyball players is winning hordes of fans.
A million miles from the non-sporty bodies of AKB48's minions, nonetheless these girls are cute, erotic and homely. We ...
Miho Kanno, the much-loved actress and model, has announced she is getting married to fellow actor Masato Sakai.
They have apparently only been dating for three months but I guess, with Miho at 35 and he at 39, they know it's now or never!
Miho became famous very young and was also a singer in her early days. She is probably best known in the west for her appearance in the Takeshi Kitano film Dolls and the Mika Ninagawa film Sakuran (in which she appears briefly nude). Her face is a common sight in advertising as well.
She was also, along with Rie Miyazawa, one of the first ...
Ah, when will our thing for Japanese school girls settle down? Not any time soon, that's for sure.
Fuji TV was filming a program at Tokyo Disneyland and a group of high school girls were posing innocently in front of one of the theme park's monuments.
No harm in that, right?
Except they decided to jump up to make a "special" shot for the photograph.
The result was a particularly lewd moment, all filmed for our benefit by the ...
Sounds like a dream job, right?
A young Japanese man, Kei Akatsu, initially used crowdsourcing to create his online project, Bijo Sekai Chizu (Beautiful Girl World Map), in which he travels the globe, approaching hot girls and asking to photograph and profile them.
We imagine that most of the girls the guy comes up to think he's just a creep and tell him to get lost.
The science student has an advantage, though, in that his website looks quite nice and genuine.
He's so far been to Canada and America, and dipped his toe in South America and Southeast Asia.
We would ...
Anan has done it again. It already has a reputation for being a soft-core porn magazine in all but name, and after Yuki Kashiwagi, Maomi Yuuki, and countless others, it has now persuaded model Nanao (24) to pose for a sexy shoot.
We can't wait for the rest of the images to go online to share them! For now, here are some oldies to give you a ...
Sexy half-Korean, half-American haafu model and actress Kiko Mizuhara has posed for Shiseido and the results are, as expected, a touch provocative.
The shot is a "te-bura" (hand bra) shot that recalls a certain AKB48 controversy of late.
While Kiko does not have much bust to speak of -- but we have long promoted the charms of flat-chested girls -- she does look rather lovely nonetheless.
The photo was taken by Araki, the photographer famed for basically being a dirty old guy and taken lots of images of naked girls.
This is a behind-the-scenes shot. Unfortunately we don't ...
