Busty idol Megumi Haruno finally reveals naked breasts, licks own nipples
February 9, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
If you're a fan of bakunyu "explosive breasts," then you're in for a treat because busty babe Megumi Haruno (春野恵) has answered your prayers.
The 32-year-old gravure idol is the veteran of many acting appearances and photo shoots, which generally play off her amazing assets. That said, they were nominally hidden underneath scanty lingerie or swimwear. The most she showed us was her butt, though this was pretty magnificent if you like big butts.
But she has finally given fans what they truly wanted: a full, unobstructed view of her nude breasts.
Shot in the wilds of Hokkaido last ...
First look at gravure idol Kaoru Yasui porn debut
February 2, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
Reported by us back in late December, the porn debut of busty gravure idol Kaoru Yasui has attracted a lot of attention.
It's probably the most high-profile gravure switchover since the likes of Miu Nakamura, Miyako Akane, or Shoko Takasaki/Takahashi a few years ago, whose career has soared in the years following.
Now the first preview image has appeared and, understandably, interest is focused on 21-year-old Kaoru's huge breasts -- an H-cup, in case you were wondering.
The 153-minute (DVDTEK098) was released in Japan yesterday, February 1. We expect it to sell well, but Kaoru will ...
Welcome in the Year of the Cow with gravure idols in skimpy cow underwear
January 15, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
If we had got our kinky acts together, we would have posted this on January 1 or, at the least, as the first article of the year. Alright, it's mid-January and we're late as f*ck.
But when the visuals are as good as this, who the heck is complaining?
It is the noble mission of gradols (gravure idols) to look hot in photo shoots, where it is a lingerie, swimwear, or semi-nude one. Come Christmas, inevitably they all don sexy Santa costumes.
And as 2021 dawned, they welcomed in the Year of the Cow (going by the Japanese zodiac) by stripping down to some very cute, very revealing cow-themed ...
Gravure idol RaMu explains the secrets behind a sexy photo shoot
January 8, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
Like a lot of gravure idols recently, RaMu has taken to YouTube to connect directly with fans and also occupy herself during downtime (which the coronavirus pandemic is generating a lot of for precariously employed models and idols).
These days, gradols are YouTubers, and one video that RaMu uploaded at the end of 2020 is gaining some traction (over 360,000 views and counting).
In it, 23-year-old RaMu talks about the secrets of how a gravure photo shoot works. It is all in Japanese but she has some illustrative props.
These include panties with see-through string so that the model can ...
Busty gravure idol Kaoru Yasui to make porn debut with Muteki
December 28, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
Like most people, we are keen -- alright, desperate! -- to see this year done and dusted. With the new COVID strain, though, something tells us that the calendar simply turning into 2021 won't suddenly makes things OK.
So we are always pleased to see news like this sneak into the final days of the year.
The gravure idol Kaoru Yasui is known for her busty body, large butt, and come-hither looks. The 21-year-old previously went through a professional name change, her kanji shifting from 安位薫 to 安位カヲル when she changed left her agency at the end of August. Having made her debut ...
Miyu Kitamuki goes semi-nude for debut photo book
December 7, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
Gravure idol and actress Miyu Kitamuki has posed for her most explicit photo shoot to date, a semi-nude spread in which she is fully naked but her modesty is hidden by carefully placed body parts -- not least, the classic "hand bra" (tebura).
The pictures appear in her first photo book, Koiyou (恋夕, Love Night), which came out last week from Kodansha. Previews were published in Weekly Playboy magazine.
The 20-year-old Kitamuki got her start in the entertainment industry in 2018 and, as an actress, her career highlights so far include the NHK drama series Idaten. She is ...
Supple gravure idol Rin Sakura lets slip more than expected at press event
November 24, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
One of the staples parts of being a gradol, or gravure idol, is posing for a photo session at Sofmap in Akihabara.
The women stand there, invariably scantily clad in a bikini while members of the media snap away. This is usually part of a press conference to promote some kind of release or appearance.
The photos are ubiquitous: a gradol posed against the squared advertising on the wall behind her.
Just occasionally does a photo session stand out.
In this case, gravure idol Rin Sakura (桜りん) was going through the standard motions of a session -- in this case, to promote a DVD, her ...
The top Japanese gravure idol YouTube channels
October 1, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
The Japanese gravure idol (glamor model) industry is a competitive and overly populated place, with idols coming and going in quick succession.
In order to maintain their status, idols are required to keep up strong social media presences. This, of course, means Twitter and Instagram, but increasingly also YouTube. Gradols have to be YouTubers these days, too.
The coronavirus has made this more urgent than before as splashy shoots and meet-and-greet events are either not having or only in far reduced numbers, decreasing the potential for idols to earn fees. Perhaps feeling the pinch, ...
Airi Sato stuns the internet with her perfectly proportioned body and face
September 30, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
Airi Sato (佐藤あいり) is an up-and-coming gravure idol and actress whose recent shoots have seen her earn a following for a rare fusion: sensual, sexy allure; a genuine and clean beauty; and girl-next-door charm.
It's an unusual ability to combine sultry come-hither looks with marriage-material middle-class respectability. But Airi Sato, who emerged first in 2018 when she won a prize at a beauty contest run by a magazine, seems to achieve it.
Specifically, the 23-year-old is praised by fans as an example of hattoshin (八頭身 or 八等身) -- literally, "eight-heads body" -- an ...
Gravure siblings: Brother is asked what he thinks about sisters’ sexy photo shoots
August 7, 2020
/ Tadashi Anahori
A Japanese TV show asked a man what he thought about gravure photo shoots. Nothing strange about this, perhaps, but the details are more unusual.
This man may look like a regular white-collar worker but his younger sisters are anything but: they are gravure idols and he was shown images from their provocative shoots.
The ladies in question are Tomoe Yamanaka (山中知恵) and Mayumi Yamanaka (山中真由美).
The brother laughs uncomfortably. "Yeah, I have mixed feelings about that."
To our shame, we did not know that Tomoe Yamanaka and Mayumi Yamanaka were sisters, though now ...
