Marin Shiosaki (潮崎まりん) may at a glance seem more Filipina but she is Japanese -- and a fresh new face on the gravure scene, a crowded industry where we hope the Saitama native makes a lasting impression.
Her curves are just great, giving her a really sexy, natural body that stands out among the willowy, straight bodies that can dominate Japanese ladies (though voluptuous women are, of course, not unusual among gravure models).
Her huge breasts (we assume a G cup) also look awesome under the sheer slingshot lingerie on the cover of her first DVD, which comes out in late ...
The tabloids are full of reports that the gravure idol Risa Yukihira has been dating the pop singer Kei Inoo of Hey! Say! JUMP for perhaps as long as two years. The story was first broken by daily sports newspaper Sports Nippon (Sponichi), whose reporters have spotted the pair visiting each other's homes.
The past romantic partners of 33-year-old Kei Inoo, who graduated from the prestigious Meiji University, include retired porn star Kirara Asuka and Japanese announcer and model Misato Ugaki.
Risa Yukihira is one of the most popular gravure idols right now. With her pale skin and alluring ...
We always like to welcome back old friends at Tokyo Kinky. Haruka Ayase's return to gravure, while quite modest, recently put a big smile on our faces.
And so it is with a little squeal of glee that we greet the gravure comeback of Miwako Kakei.
The Terrace House alum was a big gravure idol in the mid-2010s but has been content to plow a trade as a regular model, celebrity, and actress in more recent times. (Her acting gigs have particularly picked up in the past few years, especially for TV dramas.)
For whatever the reason, she has gone back to what she was originally good at, and is ...
As the year draws to a close, it's natural to look back on the past months and get a little nostalgic.
Present-day Japanese gravure idols dressed up and photographed in the style of vintage pinup models? Yes, please!
That's the basic concept behind a new photo book called Pin-Up Girls Selection, which is attempting to conjure up the image of "American porn from 100 years ago," according to the promo spiel.
There are nine participating models: Rin Takahashi, ENA, Hinano Ayakawa, Miku Oshima, Miyako Sono, Miyu Nakagawa, Aya Hazuki, Haruka Bando, and Saki Yanase.
Bando and Oshima are ...
Around this time of year, a lot of celebrities, music idols, and models release photo books and calendars. But something that might surprise people outside Japan, where streaming has become so dominant, is that gravure DVDs (or what used to known as image videos) are also still a lucrative market.
Yesterday saw the release of a new DVD by one of our favorite gradols, Eimi Matsushima. The Saitama native who is tall and busty has put out a new 105-minute DVD called special thanks to... and, as the title suggests, it is meant to be her final gravure DVD.
Though we haven't seen anything ...
Earlier in the week, we sang the praises of TV announcer Kasumi Mori, loving her sultry looks and intelligence.
Now comes the gravure debut of someone who definitely has brains.
Asa Kamiya (神谷明采) has done her first swimwear gravure shoot, which appears in the current issue (December 22) of Weekly Friday. Has Christmas come early this year?
She is a fourth-year student in the economics faculty at the University of Tokyo, regarded as the most elite college in Japan. She won the Miss Todai beauty contest in 2020 and was Miss of Miss 2021, essentially crowning her as the most ...
