We're late to blog this but we've just come across this Abema TV report from the end of December about love hotels and Christmas.
Christmas in Japan is not a family event: it's an event celebrated by couples on Christmas Eve, which usually means a romantic meal somewhere, followed by sex either at home or at a love hotel.
But is this still the case?
Abema TV went a-wandering on Christmas Eve in Shibuya -- home to Tokyo's famous "love hotel hill" -- and found that many hotels were not as full as you might expect. One hotel, they found, was two thirds empty. They spoke to some ...
Voice actress (seiyu) and actress Marika Matsumoto (33) has done a sex scene in the current Asahi TV drama series Holiday Love.
This is mainstream Japanese television, so don't expect any actual nudity, but it's still pretty sexy to see Matsumoto -- best known for her voice work on anime and video games -- like this, especially now she's a mature woman in her thirties. And regular readers will know that we can't resist a jukujo.
She gives her male partner a good smooch after he tenderly kisses her slender stomach, and then wraps her arms around him as plunges into her body. It's not as ...
We frequently encounter amateur Japanese nude selfies in our daily explorations of the netherspheres of the web and frankly there are just too many of them to post.
But this recent "goddess of Twitter" is simply stunning to overlook. The Japanese female college student posted full-frontal (hair nude) images of herself in her home, giving us a great look at her body as much as her domestic life.
Her bush is nicely cropped but sometimes she seems to be paipan, so there's something for all tastes.
She particularly likes to pose with her yellow phone in front of her mirror as she shows ...
Chikan is a chronic problem on public transport in Japan that doesn't seem to be getting better any time soon. Despite the introduction of women-only carriages during rush hour and the display of posters and "shame stickers" warning offenders that groping is a crime, the number of men who do it never seems to decrease. If #MeToo was just about chikan, the number of tweets would likely break Twitter's servers.
Kumi Sasaki says she was groped "nearly daily" on her commute to and from school in Japan. She was aged between 12 and 18.
Her first experience of chikan was on the crowded JR ...
It's rare for us to take a look at Taiwan, so here's a quick overview of a film from that oft unfairly overlooked island nation.
Directed by Adam Tsuei, The Tenants Downstairs (2016) is about, to quote IMDB, "a sadistic landlord manipulates the lives of his tenants through a network of surveillance cameras installed throughout the building."
For readers with long memories, the premise is pretty similar to the early 1990s erotic thriller Sliver.
The Taiwanese film features nude scenes from Yu-Wei Shao (Ivy Shao) and Xing Li (Lu Fu Ling) as well as Lin Tzu Ning and Yu Pei Chen. There's ...
If you were upset by Sola Aoi's sudden marriage announcement, don't worry: you still have a chance to marry a Japanese AV idol.
Asuka Hoshino had a career between 2010 and 2014, and is now trying to build a post-AV career. Presumably things are not going too well for her, since she's now turning to her fans to pay her directly.
Still, she's offering something original: a marriage ceremony!
Yes, you can "marry" Asuka Hoshino just by paying a fee. She will participate in a fake ceremony that you and the 31-year-old former porn star will plan together with a genuine wedding planning ...
AKB48 is said to be phasing out swimsuit and lingerie photo shoots for its young members, perhaps out of fear of foreign accusations of peddling lolicon and child pornography as Tokyo prepares to for the 2020 Olympics.
There is speculation that the Akihabara-inspired supergroup, which builds followings for its female idols through swimsuit and underwear shoots as well as scantily clad music videos, is taming down its tactics.
Now members of high school age will apparently not be asked to reveal their flesh during photo shoots, it is reported.
A large proportion of AKB48's members ...
Since there are so few mainstream films released in Japan with decent nude scenes, we have to look back at past ones for entertainment.
We were recently marveling again at the busty delights of gravure idol and actress Megumi Kagurazaka in Guilty of Romance.
The 2011 film was directed by Sion Sono, who later made the sensible decision to marry Kagurazaka (despite quite an age gap of some twenty years).
The film is particularly worth revisiting for its sex scenes. Megumi Kagurazaka has multiple nude scenes and naked sex scenes throughout the film, mostly showing off her very ample ...
The up-and-coming gravure idol and actress Riho Yoshioka is one of the stars of the new TBS TV drama Kimi ga Kokoro ni Sumitsuita (You Always Inhabit My Heart).
An adaptation of the manga by Kirin Tendo, the 24-year-old Yoshioka has a semi-nude scene that is currently setting portions of the Japanese web on fire. In it, Yoshioka is shown undressing and revealing her naked back. Strangely, she is then left standing nude in front of a bunch of guys who show no interest.
Unfortunately this is a drama on a regular Japanese TV channel, so you don't really see anything -- AbemaTV, which will ...
Prospective college students are now sitting down in halls around Japan for the various exams that will allow them to enter universities. It's a stressful time, but fortunately there's plenty of strangeness to keep everyone amused.
Some otaku like to wear their favorite characters on their clothes for good luck. Some people cannot resist bringing their onahole to the exams to help relieve them of the stress, though we've never seen a masturbator toy used to store pencils before.
And at least one girl attended her tests in full Lolita fashion cosplay.
As shared by Nakanojorounin, we ...
