There's been a lot of political tension over the last two years between Korea and Japan. Territorial disputes. Yasukuni Shrine. Comfort women.
But when all's said and done, there's one great unifier: sex.
Korea does not have a very vibrant porn industry and Korean men look to JAV to fill their needs.
"Yadong" means a porn video you watch online or on your computer. Whatever they think about certain rocks in the sea between Japan and the peninsula, almost all men in Korea love Japanese anime and Japanese porn.
Due to local restrictions you don't have the major porn makers in Korea like ...
We know this is going to be a divisive release -- and that's why we're blogging about it.
Over at Kanojo Toys, they have a JAV porn DVD for sale called "Rina-chan Best".
"Rina-chan Best" is a long 480-minute double-disc fetish DVD porn set for the audiences who love eight-hour paipan schoolgirl fantasies. And that's quite a big audience in Japan, it seems.
Rina is a sweet little girl who measures a mere 147 cm (4.8 ft) in height. Like small girls with flat chests? She's the one for you. (After all, there's no shortage of them in Japan.)
In the series of films in this set Rina is put ...
It's often the case the Japanese porn stars that are huge in China, Taiwan or Korea are not necessarily the biggest stars back home in Japan. Sora Aoi is one famous example -- a star at home but a mega-star abroad.
Yet it's rare for any gravure idol or porn star to make it big in Europe or America beyond the radar of hardcore Japanese or Yellow Fever fans.
But one lady is bucking the trend.
Marica Hase (or Marika Hase) (長谷真理香) made the leap over the waters to America in 2012 and hasn't looked back since. She appeared in Penthouse in January 2013 and now makes around 15 ...
Shibuya ward has purchased a large hot springs resort in Kawazu, Shizuoka Prefecture. Kikusuikan will be used as a retreat for senior citizens.
But following the April purchase a rather embarrassing fact has possibly come to light about the property.
It emerged in May that Japanese adult video (JAV) label Moodyz has apparently used the inn multiple times in shoots for its films. Tokyo Reporter says that "at least 11 productions by label Moodyz between 2006 and 2013" used the resort facilities to film action between performers.
Hot spring resorts and inns are common locations for porn ...
Under Japan's current laws, it is illegal to produce and distribute child pornography. However, politicians are looking to toughen this up by making it illegal also top possess child porn. Japan is one of the few major industrialized nations not to have a law against this.
However, the new law will not include comic book depictions.
The proposed revision to the law would exclude manga, anime and computer graphics, but would make possession of other forms of child porn punishable by up to a year in prison and a fine of 1 million yen (nearly $10,000).
The bill was debated by a ...
Sometimes models and actresses get a little bit of help to look better and further their career.
But this is an extreme case.
Japanese porn star Rina Nanase/Rumi Kanda has been having a series of plastic surgery operations to her eyes, nose and chin because she believes having a very spade-like look makes her look cuter.
Similarly to how former curvy gravure idol Yuuri Morishita has turned her face into a weird shape, Rina/Rumi has also become not so much "glamorous" as emaciated.
The result? See for yourselves. She looks like an alien or even Dobby from Harry Potter.
She has also been ...
This is a question we often ask ourselves about Japanese pornography.
With tens of thousands of actresses working in the industry, said to be the biggest in the world, which star has appeared in the most titles?
Apparently we weren't alone in wondering this, since some Japanese netizens have done the maths. Naturally the results steer older since the longer a career, the more titles you would have under your belt... though we never have any objections to a sexy Japanese MILF or two!
1. Yumi Kazuma (1,646 films)
2. Tsubomi (1,370 films)
3. Rio Hamasaki (1,201 films)
4. Reiko ...
We all dream of sleeping with or dating a porn star. Some people get to do it for real.
V6 is a Japanese male idol group whose primary job these days is to have sex with Japan's top female celebrities. Hard work if you can get it.
Go Morita (35) has been snapped with his latest conquest and one that is said to be more serious than usual. In fact, Morita is said to almost be living with porn star Alice Miyuki (26) after a year-long romance.
However, given Morita's status as a male idol, what will his young female fans think of a relationship of a woman who is so free with her ...
Do you have a hankering for petite girls? For virgins?
Sure, we all like girls who are hot and sexy, and clearly know what they are doing in bed.
But there's also a lot to be said for the experience of deflowering a virgin, especially when they are Japanese and cute.
In Japanese they are known as shojo, or maiden. And this porn title might take this fetish to a new kind of level.
"143cm Shojo Virgin First Bukkake" is about an eponymous short girl who learns what it is like to have an older man spunk over her.
While we watched this DVD we knew this wasn't the kind of ...
Japanese pornography cannot exist with bukkake.
The cum shot -- almost always on the girl's face -- is a controversial but necessary finale to almost all porn, so much so that Japanese men tend to think that this is how you should have sex in real life. Many a foreigner in Japan has been freaked out by his lady friend lying there with her mouth open and ready for him to finish on her -- when all he wants to do is just enjoy more "mainstream" pleasures (at least for the first time anyway!).
If you like sperm -- giving it, that is -- and like to watch it being enjoyed by others, then you need ...
