We've been following the "World of Thighs" series of photography exhibitions by Yuria ever since it started in 2015 and just got bigger and bigger with each new iteration.
Focused just on the glorious wonder of slender Japanese girls' thighs and legs, previous versions of the smash-hit show (known as "Futomomo-ten" in Japanese) include a hot spring theme.
As we once noted, this is basically zettai ryouiki (forbidden zone) fetish with some artistic trappings. One version of the show in Golden Week 2016 was attended by some 16,000 people.
There is now a new ...
The legendary erotic photographer Kishin Shinoyama's latest project is a series of portraits of luxury Japanese sex dolls.
The "Love Doll x Shinoyama Kishin" exhibition will run at the Shibuya art space Atsuko Barouh Arts Drinks Talk from April 29 until May 14.
Shinoyama is best known for his full-frontal "hair nude" shoots, including Rie Miyazawa's iconic one in the early 1990s. He also recently released a nude photo book with Haruna Yabuki (Mari Abe).
As we know, high-grade silicone Japanese sex dolls by the likes of Orient Industry are famous the world over and have fairly ...
The latest goddess of Twitter in Japan is a 19-year-old with a G-cup bakunyu chest to die for, not to mention pale white skin that looks as pure and innocent as they come.
But don't be fooled. Her penchant for sharing nude selfies of herself reveals very explicitly that this young lady is certainly not shy and certainly not innocent -- even if she does ostensibly mask her face.
And for some videos of the nameless angel touching herself in the shower and demonstrating the potential for paizuri her mega bust has, see Minkch.com (a regular source for these kinds of nude ...
Dokujo, an online magazine in Japan for single women, recently introduced the results of a survey of its female Japanese readers about dating foreign men.
It asked readers around Japan about their experiences of dating foreigners. It collected the results of 404 readers and published the results. What do they reveal?
209 women (51%) said that they had never dated a foreigner.
82 women (20%) said that they had dated a foreigner in the past.
72 women (17%) said they were dating a foreigner at present.
And 41 (10%) said that they had never dated a Japanese man.
While this ...
Up-and-coming model and actress Arisa Komiya stars in Yumeji: Ai no tobashiri (2015), sometimes known in English as Yumeji: A Spurt of Love.
It is a period drama about the affair between the famous painter Yumeji Takehisa and a girl called Hikono Kasai, who died young. It's all rather arty as you would expect from a biopic about a painter but we love the portrayed early-twentieth-century sex that involved seductively slipping off a woman's kimono. Romance!
While we are hardly in Ami Tomite territory here, the 23-year-old known for her acting in the Tokumei Sentai ...
If you want to perv over scantily clad girls posing for anyone to take their picture, then head to Akihabara at the weekends where the main strip, Chuo-dori, is pedestrianized. You should find plenty of cosplayers happy for you to snap away.
This has led to some issues in the past, though, when police and the local Chiyoda government have become alarmed that some ladies are effectively putting on mini stripteases for the benefits of the male audiences. Flasher idol Asuka Sawamoto even got arrested in 2008 for letting guys photograph her underwear.
Some say that the street massacre in ...
The world media has once again taken an interest in Japanese pornography -- in particular, porn made for and starring seniors.
We previously noted the press attention lavished on silver porn star Yasue Tomita and veteran male performer Shigeo Tokuda.
Doing the rounds of various overseas media outlets this time is an Associated Foreign Press article about the retirement of Maori Tezuka.
After a decade of peeling off for X-rated movies, a Japanese porn actress famous for being the country's oldest has called it quits -- at the ripe old age of 80.
Maori Tezuka, a former opera ...
It's from late December 2013 but we just stumbled upon this stimulating article on The Tokyo Files about Yoshiwara.
As regular readers will know, Yoshiwara was the licensed pleasure quarter in historical Tokyo (Edo). Today it doesn't correspond to an official address (funny that!) but you can find it at Senzoku 4-chome in Taito-ku, which is in the east of the city and very far from the expensive brand stores or third-wave coffee shops of Shinjuku, Shibuya and Omotesando.
Its location from 1675 was moated with two entry points: the Japanese love to control everything, even ...
Lots of women marched around the world to mark International Women's Day on March 8th, including at least one group in Tokyo.
But here is another protest by a different kind of feminist: sex workers.
A group of sex workers (male and female) marched while wearing masks and carrying red umbrellas. This was part of Red Umbrella March, which has emerged as a sex worker solidarity event around the world.
The sex workers started in Shibuya and then traveled to Kabukicho by train before finishing their march in Ueno. Along the way they kept their masks on and held signs indicating that they ...
To, er, celebrate International Women's Day, Al Jazeera ran this long and detailed story about sexual assault in Japan, claiming "every girl was a victim" but now more schoolgirls are speaking out about groping on public transportation.
Tamaka Ogawa was about 10 years old when she was sexually assaulted for the first time. It was a public holiday and she was on the subway. A man standing behind her pulled down the band of her culottes and underwear, touched her bare bottom, then pressed himself against her. She recalls feeling shocked and physically sickened. When she reached home, she ...
