Japan's Noto Peninsula was hit by a huge earthquake on New Year's Day, causing massive damage to roads and buildings, and triggering a tsunami. Over a hundred have died, with many more still missing, and Ishikawa and surrounding prefectures have suffered almost immeasurable levels of destruction to property and infrastructure. As locals subsist in evacuation centers or try to leave the area, and emergency services pour in to bring supplies and rescue those still trapped, the authorities have specifically requested that people outside the region not come as volunteers yet to ease the burden ...

The Japanese summer is long and brutal: once the cooler, somewhat sticky rainy season ends in July, the weather is scorching through September, coupled with intense humidity. The temperatures mean that people dress lightly, which means more young female flesh on display if you are wandering the streets of a big city. If you're anything like us, this gets you horny. (All the amazing photo books with full-frontal nudity coming out don't help either.) But squeezing one out -- let alone full sex -- in such conditions is not always a pleasant experience, even with the air conditioning on full ...

Easter doesn't have much name recognition in Japan -- certainly compared to other Western holidays like Christmas and Halloween -- but that hasn't stopped our friends at Kanojo Toys from holding a generous sale over the period. You can get 20% off any adult toy in-store during the sale. Use the promo code EGG at the online checkout. The campaign started earlier this week and runs through April 11, which should give you plenty of time to find something you like in between munching on those Easter eggs or chasing after Easter bunnies. Talking of bunnies, we are particularly smitten with ...

The ever-reliable Tenga has just released a batch of great cooling toys in time for the summer. Of course, this is far from the first time that Tenga, the Apple of the adult industry in Japan, has created menthol and other types of "cool-you-down" masturbation aids. But this year's set of toys is particularly broad and ambitious, and includes both new releases and re-releases. Let's start with the basics: a cool version of the classic Tenga Cup. The Tenga Deep Throat Cup Special Cool Edition is, as the name suggests, a special cooling version of the popular Deep Throat Cup. So you can ...

It's amazing to think that it is now a full decade since Tenga Eggs burst into our forlorn lives to brighten us up and transform the way we thought of adult toys (and eggs). Known (at least to us) as the Apple of the Japanese sex toys industry, Tenga's series of Eggs can be wrapped around your erect member to caress your glans and shaft gently and intimately. The various Eggs feature different inner designs with their distinct texture and curves, while the Eggs are thin enough that you can feel the grip of your hands as you get to work. Over the years, Tenga has released further ...

Tenga is doing so well that it can afford to send hot girls to a customer's homes. While that might sound like it defeats the whole purpose of a masturbation aid -- even ones as stylishly designed as Tenga -- be assured, Tenga has not branched out into prostitution and the ladies will only "dance" for customers. Japan's Apple of the adult industry is running this Go Go Tengirls Cool Tenga campaign to promote its summer-themed range of onacups, eggs, lubricants and other toys. The brand is asking people to tweet something with the campaign phrase and link in order to apply to take ...

We've long said that Tenga are one of the most interesting sex toys brands not just in Japan, but in the whole world. Here's another example. They are innovative for two reasons. Their approach to sex toys always prioritizes the design of the product, from the way it looks on the outside as well as the inside, and even the packaging. Secondly, their attitude towards marketing, which is bold, clever and fun. Although the brand has lots its personal touch since it got absorbed by Soft on Demand and started using a major ad agency, we can't think of many sex toys that would sponsor an ...

Tenga, the best adult toy goods maker in the world bar none, has done it again. After trying their hand at the James Cameron-esque 3D Tenga, they've now gone back to one of their early hits, the simple but very effective Tenga Eggs. These stretchy silicone eggs can be pulled right over your cock and allow you to pleasure yourself with the delicate and stimulating designs on the inside, while still letting you feel your hand through the material. The first two sets were huge hits back in the day and since then Tenga went supernova with its Flip Hole series. Now it has gone back to ...
