Go into a kiosk in a station on the Tokyo Metro subway system and take a look at the drinks.
There's always a colorful selection of beverages.
But perhaps none quite so colorful as this.
In fact, the energy drink is proving so popular you may not even be able to find a can of Ojo-sama Seisui, which translates as "fair lady's holy water". Since April 1st the drink has been on sale at Tokyo Metro station shops.
There's even a catchy bit of copy: "The goddess inside me awakens"!
The drink is apparently full of healthy and beautifying ingredients, but the name is a ...
Anyone who has ever seen some of the more extreme or, ahem, unusual entries in the pantheon of Japanese adult video will be aware of ryoujoku (or ryojoku).
It's where the woman is treated in a "degraded" way, as someone violated or disgraced -- like a shamed woman. (The actual meaning of ryoujoku can be sexual assault, i.e. rape, or also "disgrace.")
A common scene in Japanese porn will have the girl treated like a "human toilet" and phrases written on her body to "shame" her.
Here is Mika Osawa demonstrating the genre.
The graffiti might say things like "¥200 ...
Panchira research sounds like a lot of fun.
Starring popular cosplayer Kazari, Mosou Kagaku Kenkyujo (Fantasy Science Research Lab) has released a new video analyzing their research into panchira.
Panchira is a fetish for the panty shot. It's huge in Japan, especially with cosplayer idols or with schoolgirls.
The video is the first in the series in around nine months and shows the results of their "research" into ways for schoolgirls to do things so that their panties don't show, not always successfully.
This time Kazari demonstrates how to pick a book off a shelf ...
When out and around the city we love to take in the eye candy. After all, Tokyo is one heck of a candy store. Our favorite area is Omotesando/Aoyama for the chic ladies, and Shibuya for the sluttier girls. Don't miss places like Shimokitazawa or west Tokyo for the grungy students too.
This has been happening throughout history.
Where do we look? Well, of course the face and the hair, as well as her clothes and fashion.
Most Japanese ladies don't have much in the way of tits and ass, though we will still definitely check out their assets.
Sometimes there are ...
Roshutsu (exhibitionism) fetish is alive and well in Japan, especially among the middle-aged.
Kobe police arrested a couple for disturbing the peace on February 25th.
The local Kobe pair, a 44-year-old female company employee and unemployed 52-year-man, were in a family restaurant when they decided to order something not on the menu. The woman stripped off until she was "almost entirely naked" and her companion was filming her with his phone.
It was around 3:25 in the early hours of the morning -- family restaurants are usually opened 24 hours a day -- when the woman called over ...
Proof if ever any was needed: the Japanese are all fetishists!
When we first heard about the "Panchira 2015" exhibition a few weeks ago, we didn't think much of it.
Sure, there are lots of panchira (panty shot) events and things everywhere and anywhere these days.
Magazines, films, porn, events, even calendars... It isn't hard to find ways to satisfy your fetish (legally) for viewing girls' panties from under their skirts. (Of course, some people do it illegally on the train and elsewhere -- and land themselves in prison!)
But this event at Photons Art Gallery in Asakusabashi ...
Otoko no Isshou is a new movie release in Japan. Normally we hardly pay attention to the latest dull mainstream offerings but this one caught our eye.
It stars Nana Eikura, a model and actress who is getting hotter with age. When she was about 20 and appearing in NHK dramas, she was a bit cute but now she has more sex appeal. She can imagine actually doing stuff with her (and to her).
In Otoko no Isshou she plays a vulnerable twentysomething who starts a relationship with a man in his fifties.
Played by Etsushi Toyokawa, he is a curmudgeonly older gent who enjoys ordering ...
We've just discovered this great spread that Weekly Playboy (Japan) magazine ran in October 2013.
It features the lovely naked talents of Mana Sakura and her body. Mana Sakura, as readers of this blog will surely know, is one of Japan's top porn stars.
She and her curvy flesh are lusciously photographed to illustrate a survey done on sex habits.
As we love these kinds of sex surveys -- and love pictures of naked Japanese girls -- we couldn't resist, despite it being a bit old now.
Indulge us!
Weekly Playboy asked 100 amateur (i.e. not professional porn stars) Japanese girls ...
Following in the wake of Chubbiness, another high-profile idol group has been founded with larger ladies
Pottya features five members chosen out from 2,146 heavier ladies who auditioned (there's some serious demand to join these groups!). The rotund ladies have a combined weight of 380kg (838 lb)!
They recently held their first publicity event in Ebisu, Tokyo.
This is their first single, released on January 29th (apparently "good meat day" in Japan, appropriately enough).
Well, we don't think they are going to be winning any awards soon. But they will likely win some fans ...
Fetish Festival (Feti-Fes) was held in Tokyo on Sunday January 25th at an inconspicuous venue near Harajuku.
There were 96 booths, including cosplayers, idols, bondage artists, and more, spread out over six seriously packed floors, plus a basement showing the "Underground Fetish Film Festival" screenings.
Feti-Fes was first held in January 2013, since then it has been held eight times around Japan. This festival -- the fifth in Tokyo -- was the biggest so far and there seemed to be hundreds of visitors by our estimate.
Due to legal reasons, there was no nudity allowed in the ...
