Actress and gravure idol Manami Shindo (新藤まなみ) has taken her career to the next stage with another nude photo shoot and her first image DVD release in four years.
The 29-year-old, who was briefly a reporter for TBS in 2014 and can apparently speak five languages, also released a digital photo book earlier in the year. As an actress, her appearances include an episode of Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger (from the Super Sentai tokusatsu franchise).
She did an onsen-themed nude shoot for weekly magazine Friday over two issues back in April, showing off her naked back and butt, and wet ...
One of our current favorite gravure idols, 23-year-old Tsubasa Hazuki (葉月つばさ), is releasing her long-awaited second print photo book at the end of the month.
As we wrote before about it earlier in the summer, it's yet another nude book, following her debut, "Red Zone," which was released last year.
This time, with veteran gravure photographer Koki Nishida, she shows us even more of her body, including her nipples -- admittedly covered by wet clothing or translucent fabric. It's not quite full-frontal (hair nude) stuff yet, but very, very close.
After the previous spread we picked ...
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 ...
Another week, another adult video debut. Another month, another gravure or music idol quietly switches to porn.
Recently we had Rin Arai (Rin Asahi), Shizuku Taiyo (Minamo), and Ruu Yumemi.
Here's the latest. The 25-year-old, angel-faced Moko Nakagawa (那珂川もこ) launched her career as a gradol in 2018 but the G-cup minor star seemed to vanish in April.
Then came the reason: she had joined the T-Powers agency and was relaunching her career as a porn star, now called Kanan Amamiya (天宮花南).
She celebrated with a nine-page hair nude (full-frontal) spread for the weekly magazine ...
Tomoko Nakajima was once a regular fixture on Japanese television screens.
The former comedian and TV personality suffered a scandal in 2011, when she suddenly disappeared from the spotlight and, it then turned out, was several months in arrears for her expensive condo and locked in a legal dispute.
Her troubles were rooted in the advice of a fortune teller, who had been living with her since 2005 and seemed to have a strange influence over Nakajima. Many said she had been brainwashed. Her agency effectively sacked her in 2013 and her comedy duo, Othello, split up.
She has been making a ...
The "hair nude" is a curious Japanese-English term. It refers not just to naked flesh; it's naked flesh specifically with genital hair.
What is "shocking" here is the display of pubic hair, the line by which art and entertainment is usually fettered in Japan. It is fine to have plenty of nudity in films and print publications, but to avoid the century-old ambiguous obscenity laws, people censored or did not show actual pubic hair.
The hair nude set out to deliberately show this bush taboo was something to be challenged, both legally and artistically.
While the likes of Nobuyoshi Araki ...
