Curvy (well, comparatively curvy) former AKB48 idol Nana Owada will release her debut photo book and it includes a semi-nude cover with a "hand bra" (tebura) shot.
This kind of shot, where the lady covers her breasts with her hands and reveals plenty of side boob, has become a standard trope in semi-nude idol photo shoots.
Past examples from the AKB stables alone include Minami Minegishi, Ayaka Umeda, Atsuko Maeda, Rina Hirata, Haruna Kojima, Yuko Oshima, and -- most controversially -- Tomomi Kasai, whose tebura effectively ended her career.
As Maho Yamaguchi is demonstrating, there is ...
We frequently follow news of Japanese porn debuts and there always seems to be something novel in the announcements, from college girls to hostesses, gravure idols, actresses, and so on.
But we think this is the first time we've heard of a professional mahjong player making the switch to adult video.
With a face like gradol Eimi Matsushima and the slinky body of an angel, Minami Nakanishi (中西南) has opted for a mahjong-themed, 131-minute JAV debut release (1SDMU00939), which came out in July from SOD Request and is directed by ANZO. Naturally it involves sex on top of a mahjong ...
The Japanese YouTuber Sakikichi has made her gravure idol shoot debut in the July 13th issue of Weekly Playboy.
Known for videos about food and fashion, Sakikichi has an alluring, almost otherworldly beauty that is well used in the five-page shoot.
Having already attracted over 17 million YouTube video views and 125,000 subscribers, Sakikichi is hoping to attract a new kind of fandom with this somewhat unexpected career shift.
She even made a video for her channel showing some of behind-the-scenes footage from the ...
The sexual assault in December 2018 of Maho Yamaguchi shocked fans and the idol industry, exposing the mismanagement and abuse of the performers in Japan.
Yamaguchi was forced to apologise for the incident but, appalled at the treatment she received by her handlers, quit the Niigata idol group NGT48, which is part of the AKB48 network. The actual assault itself then received a very different kind of treatment: inspiring its own parody adult video release earlier this year starring a former NMB48 idol Risako Okada, who now performs porn under the name Miko Matsuda.
You might be forgiven for ...
We wrote earlier this week about gravure idol Yuka Ogura's sad decision to stop doing magazine cover shoots, which she announced with the launch of her new photo book. Fans got excited about the prospect of seeing Yuka's butt, which was glimpsed in the preview images.
Now more images from Ogura's new photo book, "Jajauma" (Shueisha), have appeared online and they continue the trend: Ogura is nude in the shoots, happily showing off her pert buttocks for her fans.
Though famously busty, it doesn't look like Yuka is ready to show off her full breasts to the world just yet. The most we seem to ...
After developing a gravure idol career for some time, slinky yet busty 20-year-old Yuka Ogura (小倉優香) is set to take things to the next level with a nude shoot for the latest issue of Weekly Playboy.
It's not especially explicit, as is typical for the weekly tabloid, but Yuka shows off her pert butt by lying down flat. This is perfectly timed just as the weather in Tokyo has really heated up and everyone wants to spend their days lounging around naked.
Yuka Ogura is one of those iyashi-kei idols -- "healing" idols whose gentle smiles and girl-next-door looks have universal ...
Searching out the finest examples of Japanese female asses is one of our ongoing obsessions, as regular readers will no doubt know, and here we share the latest fruits of this intensive and noble research project.
Risa Nito (仁藤りさ) is an up-and-coming gravure model who presents herself as a "mystery OL model." Whether or not she is a genuine office lady or not is hardly the point, since a recent photo shoot has revealed what we should really be paying attention to about this young lady. In both black or white lingerie, this starlet is a real fox.
Slinky and perky, Risa Nito has a ...
The former AKB48 idol and now gravure model Rina Hirata (平田梨奈) releases her first DVD and Blu-ray, "Hirari Time," on July 20th. To promote it, Rina has posed semi-nude, covering her F-cup breasts with her hands.
The 21-year-old joined AKB48 in 2011 and graduated in 2016. She previously released two VR videos in February of this year, in one of which she was shown in alluringly red lingerie amply showing off her butt. It was enthusiastically compared to porn.
By AKB standards, Hirata has a curvier-than-average body and boy, are we not complaining about that. We have noticed, ...
Weekly Spa! magazine has published a special "mook" featuring five gravure idols.
The concept for each shoot is that the viewer is on a date with the lovely women -- something which is not impossible, the rumors say, along as you have enough money to burn...
On sale locally since July 4th, the mook cover is graced by Tokyo Kinky favorite Mariya Nagao, formerly of AKB48.
The other four "dates" are with Mayu Koseta, Yuki Fujiki, Asuka Kishi, and Shiori Usui.
In her alluring shoot, Mariya Nagao is pictured drinking in a stylish bar before retreating to a hotel room to pull up her skirt and ...
The illustrator and mangaka Seina Takeuchi has made a stunning swimwear gravure debut in the weekly magazine Shukan Young Jump.
The issue, which went on sale on July 4th, features the insanely cute-faced artist showing off her bust and incredible legs. And don't even get us started on those lips...
Some of the shots are ostensibly nude with "drawn-on" clothes.
Though also a model and no stranger to posing for the camera, this is definitely a step-up in the career of Takeuchi, who is best known for the My Elementary School Student Younger Sister is a Bangya ...
