Something strange has happened. Despite having said that AKB48 just had no genuinely sexy members -- except, perhaps, at a push Haruna Kojima -- I've been changing my mind recently about at least one of the ubiquitous girls. She might not be as famous as the main ladies but in my humble opinion, she is far better looking in both a cute (kawaii) and genuinely sexy way. This lady is none other than Rie Kitahara. Rie was born in 1991 in Aichi, a pretty dull prefecture, it must be said. Well, she's left that all behind her now and, although she hasn't yet cracked the top ten in the ...

One of the branches of Soft on Demand (SOD) is currently seeking men to appear in a new feature. Well, even with the library of JAV porn titles produced every year in Japan -- possibly the highest in the world -- it shouldn't be too hard to find pro, semi-pro or just average Joes to play roles, right? But these guys need to be virgins! The maker is looking to recruit as-yet non-deflowered men over 18 and who of course have no prior experience with filming porn (no doubt they have lots of experience watching the stuff). Well, this could be the craziest way to loose your cherry ever, ...

A recent beauty survey in June of women in their thirties and forties looking for the place in Japan with the slinkiest waists. (Not sure why they didn't ask women in their twenties but let's not judge right away.) Curiously the most slender apparently is Hyogo, the large large prefecture west of Osaka that includes Kobe, a long coastline (on both sides) and a bunch of mountains in the middle. Hmm, rather surprising but it must be the girls in Kobe. Number two was Kanagawa, just outside Tokyo (includes Yokohama, Kawasaki, Kamakura), proving that perhaps to find the sexiest girls, you ...

It seems that it's not just us guys who find Japanese schoolgirls too hot to handle. Police have arrested a 25-year-old female teacher at a school in Kunitachi, a suburb in west Tokyo. She was found to have nude videos of 11-year-old girls in her class and has been charged with possession of illegal pornography. Not sure what sentence she might get but we reckon it's safe to say her teaching career is over. It was in June this year that the young woman, Kaori Yamakawa, apparently made the videos as her own personal, bizarre skin flick. It features female sixth-grade students using a ...

Just when you think you have everything sorted out about Japan, along comes a wacky kinky story to throw you off kilter again! Police in Chiba have arrested a coast guard who had been walking down the street on August 6th dressed only in a woman's wig and a red and purple bra. Aside from some make-up, the rest of his body was completely exposed so we're not even sure if this counts as cross-dressing. Surely his cock would have been an immediate giveaway! Masahiko Ono (48) is said to be slightly tubby and not to have bothered attempting to shave his body hair. A lovely image! His ...

As you know, we are about as liberal as you can get on Tokyo Kinky. And we also think that even just a cursory glance at history and past civilisations shows that concepts of sexuality are not universal but rather contextual and culturally relative. We don't think you can define what is right or wrong -- or normal or abnormal -- by simple black-and-white lines. And so we've had a fairly relaxed and non-pensive view on the lolicon ("Lolita Complex") evident in Japanese society, from its more innocent forms -- teenagers like Ai Hashimoto or Aira Mihana posing for bikini shots -- to the ...

This week's key word in the erotic Japanese dictionary is zettai ryouiki (絶対領域) -- often translated as "the absolute zone". A major part of otaku and moe culture, zettai ryouiki refers to the area between of the upper thigh when it is being exposed by a nubile and sexy girl, particularly when she is wearing a skirt and knee socks. The phrase also occurs in Evangelion and so possibly became slang from there. It's not just about the exposure of naked flesh on the leg. The amount and proportion of sock and skirt is also very important in framing and emphasizing the ...

During the Winter Olympics we all got very excited about Japan's cute curling team. Now it's the Summer Olympics in London and all local eyes are on the sexy volleyball ladies! In particular the slinky looks of Kaori Inoue and Saori Kimura have been attracting attention. Best of luck, girls! Good to see the Girls Generation (SNSD) ladies getting into the Olympic spirit as well. AKB48 vs. Girls Generation at volleyball, anyone? Now that would be an event we'd like to ...

Following in the dinky footsteps of their forefathers (or, fore-ladies), the wonderful girls of SKE48 are also now to get their own official venue. Nagoya-based SKE (named after Sakae, an area in the city) have up to now being using the Sunshine Studio as their performing home, but from September it will revamped as a full theater, much like the famous AKB48 venue in Akihabara. This shows the growing success of the spin-off, probably the biggest AKB sister group. (There are several others, including in Fukuoka, Osaka and even Jakarta.) It has a following of course in central Japan ...
