Proverbial jaws have hit the floor with the gravure debut of Suzu Aoi, which is a stunning nude shoot.
Aoi is supposedly a current college student with a winning smile, girl-next-door looks, and incredible bust.
She reportedly has a 100 cm pair of I-cup breasts, and in what can only be described as Christmas coming early, she has already shown the world what they look like in a new digital photo book release from Flash. The shot where she presses her breasts up against the wet, see-through shower wall (a common type of shot in Japanese erotica) is just the chef's kiss.
And she ...
This is your perennial reminder that Japan's Minister of State for Special Missions (Child Policy, Youth Empowerment, Declining Birth Rate, Gender Equality) looked like this.
Alright, she did when she was much younger. Today, she's 61 years old and has a penchant for the pants suit.
She became a politician in 2010. Despite having no children of her own (though she's had some practice -- she's on her third husband, who is 24 years her junior, since 2016), she was tasked with reversing Japan's chronically declining birth rate.
Mihara started off her career as a singer. When she was an ...
It may seem strange that the Japanese interwebs is going mad over a single mom in her mid-thirties, but don't question the power of nostalgia. Because we are talking about Atsuko Maeda, the most famous idol in the original AKB48 lineup, who was ubiquitous in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
She left the group in 2012 to pursue a more serious acting career, leaving music and the gravure weeklies behind. For fans back in the day, her return to gravure is catnip, since they have grown older together, and it's like snuggling up to a former lover.
Maeda is now a divorced mom and has claimed that ...
A few years ago, we were delighted to see the return of Hiroko Sato, making big splash with a full-frontal nude photo book. She was then in her early thirties and a single mom, having carved out a career in gravure and acting since her teens, and becoming better known in the 2000s for her roles in sexploitation movies.
The most famous is the R18-rated A Night in Nude — Salvation (2010) with Naoto Takenaka, in which Sato appears nude in numerous scenes.
We were in awe of this gorgeous single mom's natural and slinky body, and that fine bush of hair downstairs.
Well, the plot thickens: ...
Is it something in the water? Or in the early winter air? Because we seem to be witnessing a wave of comebacks in the gravure industry right now, from 2000s favorites Yuka Kosaka and Megumi Kagurazaka to real blast-from-the-pasts like Mayumi Yamazaki and Reiko Kato, returning after decades away.
The latest returning star is Harumi Inoue.
Now aged 51, the freshly divorced 1990s and 2000s star has made her first full gravure appearance in 26 years.
Debuting in 1991, Inoue was a biggie of the post-bubble years but met a Mexican man in Canada, and ultimately married the foreigner and had ...
Here's something we did not expect to be on our radar. The actress Megumi Kagurazaka has made a surprise return to gravure.
Now aged 44, the married mother is to release her first photo book in 14 years. The as-yet-untitled book will come out in Japan on December 18.
She has kicked off her return with an interview and shoot over 11 pages of the October 24/31 issue of the weekly magazine Friday.
And this isn't just a gravure comeback. It's a nude comeback -- and a full-frontal nude shoot (known as a hair nude in the industry). It almost feels like we are back in the 2000s!
Age and ...
The veteran Japanese gravure model Miho Abe has released her first hair nude (full-frontal nude) photo book.
The 37-year-old Hokkaido native is currently freelance. She made her debut in the industry in 2007 and has gone through some professional name changes over the years.
Though she has done nude shoots before, such as in 2018, this is a her first full-frontal nude and is very welcome, not just because Miho Abe is a fantastic jukujo with a mature body, but because we want the hair nude to enjoy a revival. With the honorable exceptions of Yuka Someya and Biru Otsuka, few models and ...
This is quite a way to kick off a career.
Sena Himekawa (姫川せな) is a gravure newbie, having released a couple of image videos this year, but this hasn't stopped her from already making the leap right into the next stage of her career with a nude shoot included in the latest issue of Flash.
The shoot is nothing inventive or spectacular, mostly just Himekawa standing or lounging around to show off her naked body in a bedroom or bath. There's no bush, but mainly because she's obviously paipan (fully shaved) down there.
Himekawa has also released a new nude video (imaginatively ...
There was a wondrous time back in the 1990s and early 2000s when the hair nude (full-frontal nude shoot) was commonplace. Hardly a week went by without another female celebrity shedding her clothes and trying to get in on the action, from newbies to more established stars, all trying to emulate the incredible success of photo books like Santa Fe with Rie Miyazawa.
Today, though adult video stars of course commonly do hair nude shoots, the genre has faded and it's very rare for models and actresses, much less big mainstream stars, to do a hair nude.
Which is why we are so pleased when we do ...
In early March, we reported on the exciting news that former AKB48 idol and nude model Satomi Kaneko was to make her porn debut as Kiho Kanematsu, after she had supposedly retired in 2023.
We can now share the first preview images from her debut, which comes out from Muteki, a specialist is such crossovers.
The 34-year-old's first AV, the 176-minute 18Gold (TEK00099), was released on digital formats on April 2 .
We have yet to see the AV. If you've caught it already, please let us know your assessment of the quality. From the previews, it looks quite conventional, though Kaneko/Kanematsu's ...
