A 21-year-old male student at Kyoto's prestigious Doshisha University has been arrested for attempting to rape a 22-year-old aethetician on her way home in Japan's old capital.
Takahisa Taira boldly propositioned her one night on the street in early August but did not stop at no, instead forcing her back physically to his place. Not quite sure how this worked out but presumably he is strong and the road was quiet enough.
"I was walking home at night and I felt horny" was how he later described his mood to police, who arrested him after the girl managed to escape.
No doubt using the ...
The case of an Asakusa man who disappeared at the hands of three loan sharks has just got stranger.
It now seems that the three first dismembered the man and then cooked him as a curry in Niigata, north Japan.
The victim, Kazuyuki Kobayashi, was running an eatery in Asakusa, the touristy "old town" in Tokyo. Three years ago he disappeared, aged just 27 at the time.
Three men, aged 34, 30 and 40 respectively, and who all have no registered work and were acquaintances of Kobayashi, were arrested on suspicion of disposing of a corpse. Kobayashi apparently owed them 20 million ...
A Kawasaki city civil servant and bank employee have been caught sneaking in to shoot pictures of a middle school student cheerleading dance event.
The two, aged 36 and 42 respectively, were getting images of the school girls' cheerleading event during a local culture festival when a teacher noticed their suspicious photographic activities.
Apparently the pair said they were part of an experienced "secret photography circle" and had done similar things at other places and events. They had been taking photos of the 27 young girls, including close-ups of the thighs of ...
Talk about having "something to declare" in your luggage...
A university student has tried to kidnap a young girl by forcing her into a travel bag and then take her in a taxi to make good his flight.
The twenty-year old Tomohiro Kodama brandished a knife at a twelve-year old girl near Hiroshima Station earlier this week. He forced her to get into travel bag -- 70 x 30 x 30cm -- and then flagged down a taxi to continue on to god knows where.
Luckily the taxi driver heard the girl's voice coming from the bag after Kodama had put it in the trunk. When he stopped at a red light he ...
American reputations in Japan are not the best, it has to be said, especially if you happen to be a member of the military forces stationed at various points around the country.
But we wonder if this latest development will have a positive or negative effect on relations...
A navy petty officer has ben arrested for inflicting injuries on two Japanese guys -- punching them and even breaking a nose -- on a platform of a station in Yokohama.
Why the ruckus? Well, apparently the Okinawa-based officer, D'Angelo Rett (24) (Note: name based on katakana -- as yet cannot confirm alphabet ...
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 ...
Police in Kanagawa have arrested a man and a young girl in connection to a bit of hanky panky.
Apparently university student Kohei Okazaki (22) his girlfriend, a 14-year old third year junior high school student, were in a park in Yokohama city on the night of May 5th, and they forced another junior high school student to strip down and swim in a pond.
The victim was a friend of Okazaki's girlfriend and she was kicked and punched during the incident. The girl's motivation was apparently that she thought her friend was having an affair with Okazaki. So... you then make her take off ...
Adultery is often far more tolerated among couples in Japan than in other countries. Especially older women accept that their husbands will shop around occasionally.
When the shoe is on the other foot, though, things work out differently...
A Kanagawa public official, Gen Noda (47), recently suspected his wife was having an affair. No man to take this lying down, he began following his wife.
Soon enough he rumbled her entering a "hotel" with another man, a company employee. Despite the flagrant adulterer's younger age, the cuckold wouldn't stand for this effrontery -- and promptly ...
Any newbie visitor to Japan quickly realizes that phone cameras here must carry a rather loud "shutter" noise for the moment when you take your grainy snap. The reason? Needless to say, with mobile innovation Japanese pervs were very fast to use it as a new tool for photographing up girls' skirts.
But as the smartphone devices have been flooding the market, authorities have been unable to control the use of apps to make camera "shutters" go silent. And with silence comes plenty of opportunities to snap panties and more.
Unlike regular keitai mobiles, the smartphone shutter noises ...
