An unemployed 31-year-old man has been arrested by Sapporo police for using a free generative AI tool to make obscene images of celebrities.
Tatsuro Chiba allegedly trained the AI on images of actual women and then produced the pornographic content. He targeted some 300 celebrities, mainly female idols.
Police seized a stash of 500,000 images from his computers, an undisclosed number of which were obscene.
While we probably all have stuff on our computers meant for our private consumption, Chiba was actively pursuing ways to monetize his exploitation of the technology. In two years, he ...
Japanese porn star Natsu Hinata has found herself at the center of a social media storm after she uploaded pictures of herself climbing and then lying on top of the metal overhead rack of a train carriage.
She posted the photos on January 17 and 18 on her X account. In the images, she is smiling and enjoying herself while dressed in a schoolgirl costume. The train carriage is empty.
Careful observers will note that the carriage interior seems strangely subdued for a Japanese train, plus the windows are covered in sheeting so you can't see outside. There are very few ads on the walls and, ...
A new Japanese porn release appears to parody the 2024 Masahiro Nakai scandal, in which the former SMAP member and TV staple was accused of sexually assaulting a female colleague. The woman is generally assumed to be Nagisa Watanabe, though this has never been officially confirmed.
The controversy stemmed not just over the allegation but over whether or not Fuji TV had allowed a years-long system to develop in which female TV presenters were treated like "rewards" to be given to powerful men in the industry. It abruptly ended the career of Nakai, one of the most visible presences on TV ...
The days are chilly, the nights are long. We need something -- or someone -- to cheer up our lives. And that someone might just be Mei Hayashi.
The slender beauty has made her adult video debut in a 147-minute release from Ideapocket. First Impression 190: A Mysterious Beautiful Girl Seemingly out of a Fairy Tale (IPZZ780) came out January 9.
Mei is a tender 161 centimeters (5.3 feet) and 40 kilograms (88 pounds), making her a perfect choice of porn performer for guys who like petite Japanese or fun-sized Asians. Her very pale skin and body further accentuates her alluring charm. She ...
Tokyo Metropolitan Police has announced the arrest of Akira Awazu, a 51-year-old executive at an entertainment company based in Tokyo's Shinjuku ward, on suspicion of non-consensual sexual intercourse and violation of the Child Prostitution and Child Pornography Prohibition Act, for allegedly filming himself engaging in obscene acts with a 15-year-old junior high school girl and selling the footage as an adult video.
Awazu partially denies the charges, saying: "I though the girl was 18 years old." This was revealed in an interview with investigators, reports the Asahi Shimbun.
Awazu was ...
A new porn release is based on leading gravure idol, YouTuber, and mahjong player Sayaka Okada.
As a gradol, it often helps to have a side line (e.g., as a race queen or ring girl) or a schtick to set you apart (like Sara Oshino, who is also a calligrapher).
In Okada's case, she's famous for being a professional mahjong player. In many ways, it makes sense, since Okada is half-Chinese and her interest in the game is perhaps the result of her upbringing partly in China. A graduate of the prestigious private college Aoyama Gakuin University, she's been modeling since 2011, in both fashion ...
In August, an influencer provoked a small scandal by posting selfies of herself at Tokyo Disneyland in an unbuttoned shirt and clearly intending to show off her bra and cleavage.
The backlash and attention got so much that Uta had to delete her original posts.
We didn't write about it at the time because we were traveling and the excitement seemed to die down quite quickly. These little "outrages" come and go, like the waxing and waning of the interwebs' lunar cycle. It was also the latest in a series of small scandals about influencers and others wearing provocative clothing to theme ...
The veteran gravure idol Miho Abe has said that she has twice turned down lucrative offers to appear in porn.
The model and actor shared on X on November 3 some information about the past offers in response to an impertinent fan (whose original post has been deleted).
I turned down offers of an adult contract for ¥100 million two years ago and ¥30 million 10 years ago, but I do what I do because I love it. Of course, it's a job that's for the money, but please don't be rude to adult actresses. It's a very difficult job, and it's completely different from what I do. Leave me alone.
When ...
Ruka Aida (愛田るか) is a 53-year-old porn star and former stripper who debuted in 1995 and worked in the industry initially until 2004. She then made a comeback in 2006 from 2010, before doing sex work in Tokyo and Osaka. She made another triumphant comeback in April this year.
Over the course of her long career, the Hokkaido native has seen many trends come and go. The tabloid Spa! recently interviewed her and we have translated and edited some of the highlights.
She explains that her 1995 debut came about for very practical reasons.
"I wanted to earn money to cover moving costs. I ...
Since retiring from porn in August 2023, Yua Mikami has regularly stirred up controversy. Firstly by appearing to date two male singers at once. Secondly by pursuing her efforts to work in mainstream fashion through her own brand MISTREASS and by modeling for others, which some consider inappropriate given her previous line of work.
The 32-year-old YouTuber and celebrity will clearly do anything for a quick buck, including launching her own meme coin.
Her latest gig is serving as brand ambassador for papakatsu app mypappy, which she announced earlier this month. It has provoked a decidedly ...
