The model Kazusa Okuyama has posed for the hottest, most nude shoot since her second photo book AIKAGI, where she showed off her butt in summer 2020.
The 28-year-old Aomori native, a former race queen who remains one of the top gravure models in Japan, has carved out a career on TV of late, and this latest cover shoot (included in the November 11 issue of weekly magazine Friday) reveals a more mature, sultrier beauty.
The shoot has a fantastic hot spring resort theme: we see Kazusa Okuyama looking very demure and alluring, gradually shedding clothes upon arrival at the onsen. She strips ...
Want an early Christmas present? The gravure idol Minami Yamada (山田南実) has released a semi-nude photo book that is bound to delight her growing number of fans.
In "Departure," Yamada teases us with some side boob and glimpses of her butt (which, to be fair, is not especially shapely) while wearing only a white towel, covered by suds in the bath, or lying naked on a bed on her front while pulling up the only thing she's wearing -- sheer panties. You get to see plenty of naked back, that's for sure, though not actual nude tits or ass.
The 21-year-old Hokkaido native, who was a ...
About two years ago, we published something about busty gravure idol Hikaru Aoyama's semi-nude photo book debut, and it was an unexpectedly popular post.
There has been a kind of subtle shift in the industry away from the bakunyu mega-bust gradols toward more slimmer beauties like Kazusa Okuyama and Risa Yukihira, though ladies like Hikaru Aoyama, Jun Amaki, and, more recently, Aoi Fujino, prove that large jugs are still a hit.
Aoyama and her I-cup breasts are certainly still going strong, as a new shoot amply demonstrates.
The 29-year-old, who is also part of a five-member gravure music ...
Readers, we have failed you. After reporting on Mariya Nagao's latest photo book in December 2021, we failed to follow up when it was released earlier this year.
We should have, because it was actually (as rumored) Mariya Nagao's first nude photo book. Her fourth print book Yabai! Mariya. came out in January and follows Mariyagi as she visits an old hot spring resort with its run-down love hotels and snack bars.
The Showa-themed shoot features a naked Mariya in vintage clothes that she takes off for a bath and then enjoys the water. Her nude butt is visible in several shots. After years of ...
The graduation of various leading members and the restrictions placed on live, in-person events by the pandemic have greatly reduced the presence of AKB48 and its sister groups in popular culture. The groups retain strong followings, of course, but the days when AKB dominated advertising and TV shows seem over.
As such, even the little scandals seem to pass us by. We missed that Yuka Suzuki (鈴木優香) was forced to graduate AKB48 last September due to an alleged romance (oh, the horror!) that first emerged in spring 2021.
Following her ignominious departure from AKB48, Yuka Suzuki ...
Veteran gravure idol Tomomi Morisaki is now 29 and on the cusp of full jukujo-dom. Far from toning things down as she grows older, she's turning up the heat for her fans.
In mid-April, she will release a new photo book (her fourth) and it's set to be perhaps her most explicit yet.
As an advance preview, these initial pictures were published in Weekly Friday and, boy, do they whet our appetite for what's to come. Best of all, we finally get to see Tomomi's nipples on those amazing G-cup breasts, albeit through translucent clothing. Unless we missed a shoot, we think this is the first glimpse ...
Last month, a lot of readers joined us in admiring Kyouka's breasts. The former Yumemiru Adolescence idol had teased us throughout 2021 with provocative shoots, finally rewarding with a nude photo book.
The photo book, which was shot in Okinawa, is yet to be released -- meaning we may be in for even better treats in due time -- but further images from it confirm there are other great nude shots of her body.
Though these are not full-frontals (are those waiting for us between the covers of the release on March 4), but once again showcase the 22-year-old's ravishingly voluptuous F-cup breasts ...
One of the regular themes of this blog is the after-lives of gravure idols, models, adult video performers, and so on. What happens after they retire? What can do they do after their time -- often only brief -- in the limelight?
We had Reiko Nagaoka (永岡怜子) on our radar for a while in this regard, because she presents an interesting example. And then her story took an intriguing twist recently and we felt it was time to share.
She first worked in gravure in the 2010s under a different name: Una Shirakawa (白川卯奈).
Shen then switched to Reiko Nagaoka in around 2016, ...
The year is drawing to a close: another twelve months packed full of gravure shoots and photo books. But who did the most memorable nude shoot?
Sure, there were plenty of sexy and semi-nude shoots, but who made their nude debuts? Who looked best without their clothes on?
We look at the best nude shoots in 2021 from gravure idols, models, and other celebrities (not porn stars, since going nude is par for the course).
Former Morning Musume idol and singer Maki Goto make a high-profile comeback to live performance and also released a photo book, where she went nude again -- and proved how ...
Kyouka (京佳), the 22-year-old gravure idol who is a slightly less busty Jun Amaki lookalike, has continued to build a fandom in the surest way possible: by taking off her clothes.
As we gleefully reported earlier in the year, she already did this for a weekly magazine and showed us her butt and side boob.
Now the lovable gradol and former Yumemiru Adolescence member with the winning smile has done it again with another shower-and-bath-themed shoot for Weekly Friday, published back in November (sorry, we forgot to post this!). Over the nine pages, she showed us her nude butt and about as ...
