What kind of female bust do you like? It's a question we often ponder in various ways for far too long each day. Apparently, we're not alone and a lingerie company in Osaka even went so far as to do an online survey to find out the answer. In mid-September, Maruko asked 800 people, even spread across their twenties, thirties, forties, and fifties, and half men and half women. Despite what gravure idols and adult video might have you believe, it's not as simple as guys always want huge breasts (in fact, we're written before about how trends show that Japanese men like smaller breasts, ...

She's certainly proved that a woman's career as a model and "idol" can really come into its own in her thirties. After releasing a bestselling photo book in late 2019, Minami Tanaka became the face of leading Japanese lingerie brand Peach John. That quickly yielded some stunning results, as we reported about earlier in the year. But that was just the appetizer, it seems, since 34-year-old Minami's latest shoot for Peach John sees her strip off and go (almost, very almost completely) nude. Wearing a short, see-through panty girdle, she is posed with the camera with her nude butt and back ...

One of the unexpected (but very welcome) aspects of the coronavirus pandemic was the response of adult brands in Japan, which began offering fetish face masks. As such, perhaps this update was inevitable. Costume brand Erox has taken the now-ubiquitous face mask and transformed it into sexy underwear. What, like that idol already did with the free government-supplied masks back in 2020? And like that political candidate did on her election campaign posters? Yes, but this time the results are a little less homemade! The Face Mask Underwear is a set of four masks that you wear like a bra or ...

The busty, popular gravure idol and actress Fumika Baba has reached a new stage of her career as the new face (and body) of the top lingerie brand Peach John. The latest in an impressive line of models for PJ, Baba follows the likes of Haruna Kojima, Miyuki Watanabe, Saeko, Elaiza Ikeda, and Minami Tanaka. Baba is the model for GiRLS, a special line of lingerie launched last year within the Peach John collection that is aimed at woman aged from their late teens to early twenties. When GiRLS first launched, its official models included Yui Imaizumi -- shortly before she was taken out of ...

The model Minami Tanaka continues her ascent. After a bestselling photo book, the former TV announcer has turned her jukujo charms to lingerie. She already set a precedent for how good she can make lingerie look with her 2017 Anan magazine shoot, which helped launch her career on this current path. The 34-year-old model (and alumna of the prestigious Aoyama Gakuin University) is the new face of top lingerie brand Peach John, a role previously filled by the likes of Miyuki Watanabe, Saeko, Elaiza Ikeda, and Haruna Kojima. Usually these models are younger, so it's an interesting step ...

The AKB network of idol supergroups faces a particular challenge in these COVID days of maintaining revenue when meet-and-greet and even concerts are not realistic. The idols remain popular, of course, and field requests to appear in the weekly magazines or release photo books. Mina Oba, for instance, recently appeared in a photo shoot for the weekly magazine Flash. The lingerie shoot showed off the 28-year-old modest yet sensual bust. Thank you, Mina, for taking our minds off the emerging third wave of corona infections in Tokyo. It's probably about time for Team K's ...

We like it when the legions of idols who pass through the ranks of AKB48 and its sister groups manage to find second careers after graduation. This is actually quite rare, though a lucky few do go on to work as actors, singers, models, tarento, or other types of entertainers. Now Miyuki Watanabe, formerly of NMB48, has established herself as an underwear model by posing for Peach John. The shoot has shown off a lot more of her cleavage than we have seen until now, and we like the results, even if Miyuki is far from what we might call busty. The popular lingerie brand ...

One of our pet projects is finding out what happens to idols and celebrities are they stop being gravure, music, or adult video idols. Sometimes they can struggle to find work and their careers can take unexpected turns. Some go into acting. Some graduate to porn. Some work in nurseries. Some go into hostessing or prostitution. Some teach yoga. One or two become manga writers or academics. A few even go into politics. A former junior idol, Hirona Oura (大浦央菜), has found a second career and revealed a whole other, more mature, and much more alluring side to her body as a lingerie ...

While most bras are designed to enhance the wearer's bust, some in Japan do the opposite. Because having small breasts is, well, apparently cuter (and let's be honest, less likely to draw unwanted attention if you travel on public transport or work in a conservative office). As we have reported before, this is a country that has inspired a whole lingerie line especially for women with flat chests and where there even exist bras for the express purpose of making your bust seem smaller. And here's another example. And it's instant. The Petamune Maker is a bra by Grand Bleu that Given that ...

We start the New Year the way we want to carry on for the next twelve months with some parsing of Japanese amateur females and their nude selfies. We selected this ravishing beauty to showcase today. This I-cup goddess is certainly a nice way to begin January. If the description is to be believed, she is a 19-year-old "office lady" (OL). Who knows if that's true or not, but you can't lie about the quality of this bust -- a mightily impressive pair of bakunyu "explosive breasts" if ever there was one this side of the professional gravure divide. She makes some efforts to hide her face ...
