The blond-haired cutie Kokoro Shinozaki (篠崎こころ) appears in the new issue (August 24) of Young Champion with a hot shoot showcasing her slender body and otherworldly allure.
Shot at a lake, the lingerie spread features Kokoro Shinozaki posing in a white dress or pale underwear. If not for the ears, she could be an elf or woodland sprite. (That said, she is apparently not averse to putting on the elf ears and going the whole hog.)
The 28-year-old idol and cosplayer is famously tiny -- 150 centimeters, or under five feet -- and made her debut in 2013.
Frankly, this ...
We cannot quite believe that's approaching five years since we last introduced the charms of Satomi Kaneko.
Formerly of AKB48 (until 2007), the gravure idol has in the past done some provocative and alluring photo shoots showing just how close she can get to nudity while just about maintaining a PG-13 rating.
Cue bare backs, fundoshi and a shaved you-know-what, buttocks and glimpses of a nude butt, side boobs and tebura "hand bras" galore.
Now aged 31, Satomi's career is moving into a new phase. And we will be eternally grateful to whichever gods of fate or Shinto are responsible.
For her ...
After last year, this is another summer that almost feels like it doesn't have a proper summer. We can't really go anywhere -- certainly not abroad -- and most festivals and major events are even canceled for a second year in a row or held in reduced forms.
Fortunately, someone is here to bring some much-needed sun into our lives.
The actor and model Miki Sato (佐藤美希) is featured in the August 23 issue of Weekly Playboy in a stunning summer-themed shoot.
What we love about this shoot is that it mostly eschews the more obvious swimsuit and pool or sea shots.
Instead we get the ...
A former founding member of idol group Yumemiru Adolescence (YumeAdo), Kyouka (京佳) is a curvy, busty goddess. With her F-cup and girl-next-door looks, the gradol has charmed her way through five photo books to date -- though three were self-produced -- and has just released a new digital book.
Since leaving YumeAdo in 2019, she also tried without much success to crowdfund a music album.
But she is still immensely popular as a gravure idol. She has now turned to a sure-fire way to boost her fandom: posing semi-nude for weekly magazine Friday.
With her arms and hands protecting the ...
Popular gravure idol Kanami Takasaki (高崎かなみ) has given us the kind of erotic image we all crave in the summer: of her wet, naked body straight out of the shower.
With temperatures soaring in Tokyo, we feel like cooling down in the shower every few minutes -- but that doesn't mean we aren't horny either.
The 24-year-old Kanagawa native is promoting her first photo book, which was recently released.
Imagine what it is like to come home with Kanami after a day walking around in the searing heat and then head straight into the shower to cool off together -- before turning the heat ...
She generously showed us her naked butt last year. And now Tsubasa Hazuki has gone even further.
In her latest onsen-themed photo book, Hazuki is shown nude under a very wet, very thin garment.
Her breasts and nipples are clearly visible through the fabric. Her mons pubis is also shown in close-up and she appears to be paipan.
This is about as close as you can get to a full-nude shoot without being naked -- nominally speaking.
So now we have a vicarious sense of what it would be like to take Tsubasa Hazuki away for an intimate stay at a hot spring resort. If only this was actually one of ...
It always feels good to welcome back an old favorite.
The gravure idol Ayame Misaki was a regular on this blog in the early 2010s. But then she got married in 2016 (only to divorce the following year) and also started working as a "serious" actress, landing a role in a film by art-house auteur Naomi Kawase.
But she didn't forget her gravure roots, even if her days of doing nude scenes in low-budget movies are sadly behind her.
Now aged 32 and teetering on the edge of youth and jukujo territory in the most alluring of ways, Misaki made a gravure comeback in late May with a shoot for the ...
Yume Hayashi has finally released her first photo book in a sign that her career as a gravure idol is picking up pace.
After three previous digital photo books, the 25-year-old released her debut print photo book, "Yumemi-gokochi" (Dreamy State), with major publisher Kodansha on June 4.
In it, she appears in swimwear and in various states of nudity, her modesty covered by carefully placed arms or by turning her naked back to the viewer. You can enjoy plenty of side boob, butt cheek, and cleavage, but no actual nudity.
We've included some highlights ...
Former NMB48 idol Rina Kondo (近藤里奈) has delighted fans by slipping off her clothes and lying nude on a bed, her modesty preserved only by a slinky pair of panties.
The 24-year-old has released a digital photo book in which she shows off her sweet girl-next-door features, but with a healthy degree of sex appeal thanks to her naked back. Who says cute girls cannot also be sexy?
Intended to preview and promote the digital photo book release, the gravure shoot was published in an issue of Weekly Playboy in late June -- her first appearance in the magazine in eight ...
Nao Kosaka (小坂菜緒) of Hinatazaka46 has released her debut photo book, delighting fans with semi-nude shots and achieving rapid commercial results.
Kimi wa dare? (Who Are You?) was released on June 29 and has sold quickly -- 180,000 copies, according to a media report. It has already entered its second print run.
With her cute girl-next-door looks, Kosaka is incredibly popular and there was a lot of buzz about her photo book, as we first wrote about in May. But even we didn't expect it to be such a hit with fans.
Naturally, the amount of skin she is showing is a major ...
