Was this inevitable? Everything seems to be getting in on the non-fungible tokens boom, which has now reached the Japanese adult industry.
The legendary shibari (kinbaku) rope bondage artist Hajime Kinoko is going sell an NFT of the latest entry in his "red" series of bondage images -- his first NFTs release and his first all-digital addition to the series.
The project is organized in partnership with Zak Shibuya of Reality Production Management (RPM Tokyo), which is planning an Instagram launch event and charity event to accompany the NFT.
It's another first for renowned Hajime Kinoko: ...
Sex education is notoriously inadequate in Japan, contributing to the relatively low usage of condoms by young people.
But it seems some pedagogues are determined to make up for this in other areas of teaching.
At least, that might appear to be the logic partially behind why an educational event at Kyoto University recently included a live demonstration of shibari Japanese rope bondage.
Pics and tweets about the incident went viral last week in Japan, not least because of the incongruous notion of a renowned institution hosting such a sexual subculture.
Kyoto University is one of the most ...
They say that television is fake and this story may not convince you otherwise.
Netizens have exposed the beautiful woman who is supposedly an instructor at the Uzumasa Driving School in Kyoto as a gravure model.
Featured on a Japanese TV show as Aimi Yoshikawa (吉川愛未, not to be confused with Aimi Yoshikawa 吉川あいみ, the retired porn star), ostensibly because the driving school is covered by the government incentives aimed at encouraging domestic trips, this Aimi was, in fact, none other than Aimi (あいみ), a mononymous gradol much-admired for her svelte ...
Japanese pornography is never slow to miss a chance at making a parody adult video, from Weathering with You to One Cut of the Dead or even a notorious assault incident.
Just in time for the Academy Awards, where it is nominated in multiple categories, Joker is the latest bold choice of source material for a JAV release. This time, it's Yui Hatano who is the titular villain, taking over from Joaquin Phoenix.
In the 130-minute, aptly titled "Clown (Joker) Woman" (bda111), released on February 19th from Bermuda, Hatano is a woman who becomes a clown and the submissive sex slave of a man ...
Here is Tokyo Kinky's roundup of some of the best adult toys released in Japan over the past few weeks, all available for international customers via our friends at Kanojo Toys.
Heaven's Girl Luxury Hole
The Heaven's Girl Luxury Hole series is a new selection of porn star clone masturbators featuring Aya Sazanami, Mio Kimijima (aka Kaede Kyomoto), Miho Sakazaki, and Sumire Mizukawa (aka Miri Mizuki). Aurora Toy Japan has made a good stab at launching this series and let's hope they continue developing it with other top adult video stars.
The Different World Began with Dark Elf ...
Released in Japan as Chotto Kawaii Iron Maiden, we previously wrote about The Torture Club, a soft-core bondage film starring Noriko Kijima based on a manga.
Now that Kota Yoshida's erotic film has had some sort of a stateside release, it seems, by chance we found some better screen grabs, so indulge us in a second trip to the world of Japanese lesbian BDSM -- not least because this time there's no censored hair and we get the full-frontal nudity in all its neatly trimmed glory.
Alongside Noriko Kijima, whose explicit scenes leave practically nothing left to the imagination barring a ...
So you've seen the mega hit Makoto Shinkai anime Your Name.. Perhaps you've also seen it again in its recently released DVD form. Maybe you've even tried out the parody onahole toy.
But have you seen the Your Name. parody adult video?
Released in late June, Kimi no nawa. is the latest example of Japanese AV's penchant for parody. Previous eyebrow-raising examples of parody porn include Ultraman, wailing politician Ryutaro Nonomura, and comedienne Buruzon Chiemi (Blouson Chiemi).
It starts with the name. The 129-minute porn directed by Any Nakamura for Real Works cleverly uses a different ...
Is Japan's naughty knotty BDSM scene too dangerous?
This was the question asked recently by Jake Adelstein, the Tokyo-based reporter who has made a career out of being the foreign media's go-to guy for yakuza stories and gossip.
Adelstein's article for the Daily Beast website is an interview with Golden-san, aka Golden Rule S.M. or Doctor Golden, who is calling for a "gentler, wiser, and kinder BDSM."
Doctor Golden, who is an S&M practitioner and also a chiropractor, has been taking care of people, mainly women, injured in the pursuit of their pleasure for over two decades. Next ...
She's finally done it. Miyako Akane has answered our prayers by making the next logical step in her career and becoming a porn star this spring.
Miyako Akane is a gravure idol and chakuero idol -- i.e., a busty idol who keeps her clothes on but barely (as opposed to AV idols, who do fully nude photo shoots all the time).
After wowing the nation with her amazing H-cup bust in what may be the most incredible and revealing swimsuit in Japan as well as 360-degree virtual reality softcore porn, things must have been drying up for Miyako Akane... or she just wanted to take her career to the next ...
Japan's favorite It Girl, Kiko Mizuhara, has teamed up with photographer Nobuyoshi Araki again for a series of shibari rope bondage-inspired photos.
Ostensibly the shoot is advertising the fall/winter 2016 collection of the fashion brand Supreme, but who cares about such details when Kiko is tied up and waiting for someone to whip her?
Araki and Mizuhara previously (and memorably) partnered for a nude photo shoot for Shiseido back in 2013.
There's also this promo behind-the-scenes video too, showing Kiko-chan roll over and reveal her panties. The aging Araki gets rather ...
