Mayumi Yamanaka has made a gravure comeback following marriage and motherhood.
Now aged 32 and the mother of two, Mayumi Yamanaka appears in the current issue of Weekly Playboy. The lingerie shoot also marks 20 years since her industry debut -- she began in 2005 as a junior idol and child actor.
She released her first print photo book soon after, and appeared in Weekly Playboy at the age of 14 (eww!), though hit her career peak in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
In late 2019, she announced she was married and pregnant, though continued to release image videos (her last came out in ...
Some women age well. And then there's Kyoko Fukuda.
The eternally youthful (and single) Fukada has appeared on the cover of Weekly Playboy, making her one of the oldest idols to earn the honor.
Now aged 42 (and turning 43 in November) and as comely as ever, Fukada appears on the cover of the latest issue of the magazine, which came out on June 30, wearing a figure-hugging swimsuit. She is fine company: the same issue features such gradols as Erika and Marina Momose, and various other young ladies two decades or more her junior. We'd take Fukada over them any day of the week, ...
The actress Aya Ueto is to release a new photo book in July.
Shot in Taiwan, Midday Reverie comes out on July 10 from Takarajimasha. The photographer is Kotori Kawashima, famous for his photos of a young toddler called Mirai, though he has done photo books for models before, such as Nanase Nishino and Asami Usuda.
Midday Reverie marks Aya Ueto's first photo book in 15 years. She turns 40 in September but, as the shoot preview images show, is still a remarkably beautiful woman. Don't expect any nudity, or even much flesh on display, though, since Aya Ueto has never had that sort of career ...
One of Tokyo Kinky's all-time favs, Kyoko Fukada, is to release her first photo book in five years.
Aging like a fine wine or whisky, Fukakyon has overcome some recent mental health issues and a brief career hiatus, and the as-yet-untitled photo book is sure to restore her status as Japan's most desirable unmarried woman.
Now aged 42, her beach body remains svelte and exuberant, and those breasts look as ripe and succulent as ever.
As an actor, her career has mainly focused on TV roles but she also appears in occasional films.
The photo book is shot by veteran ND Chow comes out on ...
The 40-year-old gravure idol Miri Hanai held a launch event for her latest photo book, the aptly titled Legendary, in Tokyo yesterday.
Released by major publisher Kodansha, Legendary is her first print photo book in about two decades, though she has continued to release digital books.
In 2023, we wrote about Hanai and her incredible 20-year career in gravure. We don't know what magic or dark arts she uses, but she still looks at busty and svelte as ever.
Fans will certainly be pleased with Legendary, which showcases the jukujo's charms and assets in swimsuits, lingerie, and nude. ...
Given the huge volume of porn produced in Japan and, thus, the large number of women involved, it is inevitably that many of the performers will have families after they retire from the industry. The question of former or current adult video stars raising families is one that occasionally appears in the media, often with a degree of sympathy (for the abuse they can suffer online) and curiosity.
Spa! recently featured an interview with AiRis, an up-and-coming gravure idol and singer who is also the daughter of 46-year-old former porn star Mariko Sata.
Single mom Sata was active in the ...

If you're a fan of Asian MILFs and jukujo mature beauties, you'll surely already know what a wonderland Japan is. While we love to follow the latest models and idols to grace the gravure scene, we pride ourselves on covering plenty of sexy ladies in their thirties, forties, or even older. We recently wrote about 44-year-old stunner Asami Kumakiri, for instance. The fine ...
Back in 2020, amidst the fug of the pandemic, we gleefully reported on the gravure comeback of Asami Kumakiri. The mature hottie was then a ripe 40 and posed for a nude shoot that showed off her slender, sexy figure. She has since released several digital photo books.
Well, Asami is now 44 and still going strong.
She just did her first shoot for gravure magazine Flash in 13 years, generating headlines in the media. She is shown covering her naked breasts with her hands, her body covered by white pearls. The issue even comes with a DVD featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the ...
Most careers in entertainment are all too short and many stutter and fade before they even really get going. That is true perhaps especially of gravure, an industry obsessed with the next idol, the latest body, the newest boobs.
But some women are an exception, like Yoko Kumada, whose gravure career has continued even as she has got older, had a family, and suffered a scandal (domestic violence) -- or perhaps, it's precisely because of this. Kumada is a lady with experience and who knows how to handle herself, a very attractive quality for a woman.
The 42-year-old divorcee and ...
Long-time readers may remember the story from 2019 of Kazuko Iwamoto, the nude model and actress arrested for attacking her lover at a train station after he tried to end their relationship. The 43-year-old had, it seems, revealed to him that she was pregnant, but her lover was a married cad who wanted to make a getaway at the resort town of Atami.
It was of the most bizarre stories we have ever run and, to be honest, pure catnip: a beautiful jukujo at the height of her fame seemingly caught in a destructive relationship, turns desperate -- and the result is a sensational (though thankfully, ...
