We recently introduced the great Netflix drama series The Naked Director, which charts the rise and fall of adult video legend Toru Muranishi during the 1980s and 1990s.

Now we want to look in more detail at some of the sex and nudity it depicts.

The choice of Netflix to show the series is an apt one, since then it is now bound by the strange rules of mainstream Japanese broadcasting that forbids actual nudity. Being a streaming channel, Netflix can do the subject matter justice by allowing some actual bare flesh on screen.

One of the most naked is the gravure idol Ruri Shinato — long a favorite of ours — who appears in several sex scenes.

Korean-Japanese actress and model Hyunri shows off her butt.

The lesser-known yet beautiful young actress Misato Morita (森田望智) lets us see what she looks like masturbating in the shower. The scene also includes a realistic period touch in that she has hairy armpits (a running trope in the series). Morita plays Kaoru Kuroki, the eventual AV star.

And finally, ex-AKB48 idol and regular nude Ami Tomite shows off her breasts in a fun scene portraying the grim reality of an outdoors porn shoot.

We will update with more selections of the scenes from the series as we keep watching.

The former AKB48 idol Ayano Umeta has gone semi-nude for a eye-catching and provocative shoot that really shows off her bust.

In the resulting photo featured in the current issue of Weekly Playboy, which is now delighting netizens, 20-year-old Ayano seems to be wearing no panties as she leans out of a bath, her shirt dripping wet as it clings to her alluring body.

That body is surprisingly busty for her young age and petite figure.

Umeta left AKB48 in March 2017 after joining the group in 2011, since when she has changed her professional name to Ayano Shimizu (清水綾乃) and tried to establish herself as an actress.

Several former AKB group idols have resorted to such nude or semi-nude tactics in an effort to launch post-graduation careers.

Recent examples include Nana Owada, Ayaka Umeda, Rina Hirata, Seira Miyazawa, and Maho Yamaguchi. Others like Natsumi Hirajima and Machiko Tezuka have gone further in gravure shoots and shed all their clothes for the camera — and then there are the ones who make the full switch over to adult video.

Only a small number of former AKB idols like Atsuko Maeda have built up genuine careers as actors.

Where will Ayano Shimizu’s career end up? She is releasing her first DVD later this week, so its sales may well prove decisive.

Oh, we do like ourselves some love handles.

H-cup idol Sayaka Todo (藤堂さやか) possibly has some of the most impressive curves, not to mention boobs, we have seen in gravure in a while.

After putting some DVDs earlier in the year and last year, the 24-year-old releases her first photo book on August 23rd, taking her career hopefully to the next level.

Like Ami Inamura, she’s a fan of baseball and likes to pose in gear. She can swing our bat any day she fancies.

Might queen-of-the-butt Yuka Kuramochi have some competition on her hands?

Good onahole maintenance is the life and death of your masturbator sleeve: take care of your toy and it will last much longer.

While onaholes are famous for looking after your balls — primarily, by letting you release the juices they produce — did you know that you can now take care of your onahole with a ball?

Made from diatomaceous earth, a natural material that is very popular with bathroom products in Japan, the Hole Quick Dry Diatomite Ball by G Project is as handy as it is original.

The ball is absorbent, quick-drying, and anti-bacterial. Just pop the sphere into your onahole and massage it while inserted into the tunnel to remove the moisture the remains inside. What a simple, smart idea this is — and probably the most novel sex toys maintenance item we’ve seen.

The Hole Quick Dry Diatomite Ball is now available from Kanojo Toys, your one-stop store for all things adult about Japan.

When all is said and done, the human race is driven by some pretty basic urges: eat, sleep, and fuck. Everything else is ultimately just window dressing for what we have come to call civilization and society.

But of the three, which is the most important for people today in our nominally sophisticated age? Specifically, which do Japanese people value the most?

Japanese survey site Sirabee set out to find the answer to this question by asking 1,781 men and women in Japan, aged between their teens and sixties.

Which could you not live without? Food, sleep, or sex?

Almost 54% of those polled said food, whereas sleep gained a respectable result of just under 39%. Sex, on the other hand, only got 7.6%.

The results perhaps confirm the Japanese obsession with food — as any glance at a TV schedule will attest — and the ongoing issue of sexlessness in the nation.

Sure, these results are probably going to be the same in most places, but the difference between the numbers is quite staggering. We suspect that it would not be so low for sex in other regions.

Of course, it’s a silly hypothesis in the first place. No one can live without food or sleep, and the race couldn’t lie without sex.

Fans already pleased by the explicit blowjob and nude sex scene that Kumi Takiuchi did in Side Job (2018) have got even more to be happy and grateful about with the release of her latest movie, Kako no Futari (火口のふたり、Lovers at the Crater).

The intense drama about two past lovers revisiting their sexual relationship came out in Japan on August 23rd.

As sneaky uploaded previews shots reveal, the 18-rated film based on Kazufumi Shiraishi’s novel features Takiuchi getting screwed from behind by her co-star, Tasuku Emoto, while standing up. He is holding her under the breasts and with his other hand gripping her crotch.

She is wearing her underwear at the time (you can just about see her panties), so it’s not so explicit in terms of nudity per se, but it shows us what wild sex with her would look like. And by the looks of things, there is still plenty of nudity in the rest of the film.

Kumi Takiuchi is 29 years old and has starred in several films and TV dramas.

Sometimes the best choice isn’t necessarily the prettiest.

With a design that makes a nod to tentacle sex, Project Kimoi Onaho Vol. 1 The Ugly One That Squeezes Everything is certainly not your usual smooth and sleek pocket pussy toy.

Its name might be a bit of a mouthful and with external visuals that initially put you off, but the results convince you that “ugly” and freakish can be decidedly sexy, too.

Slide in and immediately feel the cluster of inner ribs and pods inside the tight tunnel. Be sure, though, not to neglect the uniquely textured outer structure. Hold the toy at different angles to add random pressure on your member’s most sensitive areas as this tentacle-like onahole grips you hard.

Few toys say “hentai onaholes” quite like this.

Project Kimoi Onaho Vol. 1 The Ugly One That Squeezes Everything is now available globally from Kanojo Toys, your number one online stop for all things adult about Japan.

We look forward to more entries in the series.

If this kind of toy kindles your fetish flame, then be sure to check out these tentacle breasts onaholes, the mandrake-inspired Monster Alraune Tentacle Sex Onahole, and the Gucho masturbator series.

The latest gimmick in the ongoing campaign against chikan, or groping, on trains involves a stamp.

The idea here is that the chikan stamp, made by a Nagoya-based stationery company known for personal seals and stamps, can be used by the victim to mark the perpetrator.

When and after they are groped, victims — who are often young and vulnerable — may feel too shocked or scared to speak out, or physically unable to hold onto the perpetrator to prevent him (or her) from getting away. This stamp is a solution, since it lets the victim “brand” the criminal easily and clandestinely.

Known in Japanese as the Meiwaku Koi Boshi Sutanpu (迷惑行為防止スタンプ), Shachihata’s stamp uses a colorless, transparent ink that only becomes visible under ultraviolet light, according to a Kyodo News report.

It will come with a blacklight that can be used to shine on a stamped object to illuminate the seal mark, which is the figure of an open palm, the company said.

The product is hoped to aid in the identification of perpetrators of indecent acts if stamped onto their hands or belongings.

The set of stamp and strap costs ¥2,700. No doubt as the result of the strong publicity the item has attracted, it is currently listed as sold out on the Shachihata online shop.

“We hope it will be of some help in encouraging society to keep an eye on troublesome behavior and addressing the issue,” Shachihata’s public relations spokesperson said.

Some stories are stranger than fiction and Anri Sakaguchi’s is almost one such tale.

The 28-year-old, whose real name is Mizue Nozawa, has added multiple hyphenates to her name over the past few of years as her life and career has taken all kinds of twists and turns.

The daughter of a well-known actress and a one-time tarento herself, she made her unexpected adult video debut in 2016 to pay off her huge debts. This would be sensational enough for most people but Anri Sakaguchi is not most people.

She was then arrested in 2017 for attempted extortion of a bar host with whom she was involved. She had apparently demanded money from him in exchange for an intimate photo. The case was later dropped by police.

Though she subsequently announced she had quit AV after a handful of releases (under the name ANRI), she then worked as a hostess, stripper, and even a call girl.

And whatever she is doing now, it’s clearly not keeping her out of trouble.

Her alleged crime this time is quite minor and under ordinary circumstances it would be peculiar for someone to receive the perp walk treatment. She was arrested on trespassing charges after she entered the property of a boyfriend — yet another bar host — who did not want her there. This happened one morning earlier this week after a dispute following a taxi ride home. She apparently chased after the man to get the taxi fare back.

Her arrest by Tokyo Metropolitan Police made national news. We’d be surprised if they actually prosecute her over such a minor incident but, regardless, it’s only the latest development in Sakaguchi’s ongoing troubles.

With new legal bills and the like surely to pay in the near future, is a return to adult video in the offing?

We have continued to follow the nudity and sex scenes on display in the Netflix Japanese-language serial The Naked Director, which charts the incredible career of Japanese porn giant Toru Muranishi.

Following our look at the nude sex scenes by gravure idol Ruri Shinato and actress Ami Tomite, we will focus this time on the nudity by Misato Morita.

The lesser-known yet beautiful 22-year-old actress Misato Morita (森田望智) plays Kaoru Kuroki, the eventual AV superstar.

In one episode early on, we see what she looks like masturbating in the shower. The scene also includes a realistic period touch in that she has hairy armpits.

It is quickly apparent why they chose a lesser-known actress for this role, since it involves substantial nudity and an established star in Japan would be unlikely to agree to that.

Here are some other highlights. In one long sex scene, Morita does full-frontal nudity where you can clearly see her bush as she fucks Muranishi.

They have sex in a number of positions and there’s a great shot of Morita energetically straddling her man and also fingering herself — and this is all while the busy couple are surrounded by crew members, lighting equipment, and video cameras filming their antics. Now that’s professionalism.

We will write up another post with more nudes from the drama series next week.

Formerly of idol group NMB48, Miyuki Watanabe’s new photo book sees the slinky young lady pose semi-nude. The shoot includes the 25-year-old in a tebura (“hand bra”) pose for her first photo book in three years, Miyuki desu. (This is Miyuki.).

While the semi-transparent bottoms are rather lovely and there’s the hint of a butt crack, it’s not a particularly explicit in terms of nudity — no buttocks on display, just some side boob — but fans will still be pleased with the tantalizing glimpses she offers of her body.

Will this be enough to maintain her career after leaving the Osaka idol group? The sales of the photo book, which came out on August 23rd, will probably be the ultimate decider of that.

Is it just us or is Miyuki Watanabe starting to look a bit like gradol Yuka Ogura these days?

One of the most sensational stories over the summer was that of nude jukujo model Kazuko Iwamoto, who was arrested for stabbing her married, younger lover at a train station apparently after he spurned her for getting pregnant.

The details of the adultery and the 43-year-old model’s descent into what was possibly a kind of mental collapse are lurid yet also all too familiar.

Now the dust has settled, we can take a look at the career that Iwamoto has more than likely destroyed with her act of vengeance.

In the summer, just as fate was taking a strange turn for her, Iwamoto released her latest “image video” (image BD) on Blu-ray called “Adult Invitation” (オトナの誘惑).

Now there is a “remake” version coming out, most likely without Iwamoto’s direct participation and presumably using extra or unused footage. The producers are surely hoping to capitalize on Iwamoto’s notoriety.

The explicit video shows full-frontal nudity and plays out a scenario in which Iwamoto is seduced (or seduces the viewer) in a hotel room in the role of older office lady.

As the screengrabs make clear, it’s not quite AV but it’s still very much porn. Sometimes a woman alone is even sexier than a couple going at it.

Japan’s top adult brand, Tenga, already amazed the Internet with its first Tenga Robo toy last year, inspired by the antics of creative netizens. Now it is back with a line of limited-edition collaboration items that are just as vibrant and fun as the first.

Combining the design of Tenga’s Onacup masturbation aids with robot characters, the toys measure 20 cm in height and are made in collaboration with characters created by the Go Nagai (Devilman, Cutey Honey, and Harenchi Gakuen).

Based on the 1970s anime/manga Mazinger Z, the black Mazinger Tenga Robo comes with a Jet Scrander wings jet pack for flying into the world of pleasure.

For more hard-core fans, there is also a Rocket Punch Mazinger Tenga Robo set with a giant Tenga Onacup like a fist. A masturbatory KO?

Based on the titular sci-fi anime series from the 1970s, the red Getter Tenga Robo features a special Getter Wing cape and a pair of handy Getter Tomahawks, since masturbation is a serious business that may involve combat with deadly foes.

The latest Tenga Robo toys are only available by reservation directly from Tenga until October 9th, with delivery set for February next year. If you are keen to add them to your collection, contact our friends at Kanojo Toys about arranging the ordering and delivery.

Alas, they are not actual onacups and you cannot use them to pleasure your manhood. For that, see Tenga’s awesome lineup of actual adult toys.

It seems that top Japanese porn star Nanami Matsumoto (松本菜奈実) has a fan or admirer in the ruling Liberal Democratic Party.

The J-cup AV idol shared on Twitter with her followers that she was surprised to receive a notification in the mail from the LDP congratulating her on joining the party — and enclosing her party membership card.

She claims to have done no such thing and is confused as to how the LDP got ahold of her address.

Could it be a simple bureaucratic slip-up? Or did a worker in the party just really want to make contact with her, and abused his power to find out her personal information using government resources?

Or is this a stealth marketing stunt by the LDP’s public relations bods, in the hope of attracting new voters? I.e., they involuntarily recruit the porn star as a member and use her to promote the party to horny men?

Hmm… Not sure how effective that would be unless they could follow up with AV-inspired policies. Here’s one, for starters: change the obscenity laws so that it’s not illegal to depict genitalia.

Now that’s what we call “liberal” and “democratic.”

See all the penetration action with the Raw Creampie See-through Musume DX Onahole.

In what is apparently an industry-first, the onahole combines a semi-transparent body with a vagina replica in a very flexible dual structure.

This gives the toy some serious wobble factor yet it is still sturdy enough for enjoying flat in the missionary position or even held upright on your member, like it is riding you in the cowgirl position while you lie down.

But best of all is the see-through materials, which mean your creampie (nakadashi) action will never be hidden from view. And quite rightly so. There’s quite like seeing an erect member throbbing as it releases its hard-earned climax.

This is a “deluxe” update of the previous hit, the Raw Creampie See-through Musume Onahole — hence the “DX” appellation. This is pretty common practice with Japanese onaholes, which often release deluxe or “hard” editions of successful masturbator toys.

The Raw Creampie See-through Musume DX Onahole is a worthy follow-up, heavier and more realistic than its predecessor but even softer and more versatile.

The Raw Creampie See-through Musume DX Onahole is available from our friends at Kanojo Toys, you one-stop store for onaholes, masturbators, vibrators, dolls, dakimakura pillows, and all things adult about Japan.

Private photos have leaked online showing idol Yui Yokoyama of AKB48 in her underwear kissing and embracing her boyfriend.

Needless to say — if the photos are genuine — this scandal certainly breaks the no-dating rule in her contract with management, not to mention will both excite and disappoint fans.

The three images leaked online on the night of September 6th. We don’t think the 18-year-old Yokoyama or her management have made a comment yet confirming or denying the photos. It isn’t clear yet why the photos leaked, though they apparently date back to when she was still in junior high school.

Yui Yokoyama is an Aomori native who joined the supergroup in 2014. She is a member of Team 8.

In the cutthroat world of idols, the faintest whiff of scandal can derail a career. We suspect that Yui may well be graduating from AKB48 sooner rather than later. When similar photos of Mayu Harada leaked, she was promptly forced to resign from Keyakizaka46.

In her latest TV drama series role, busty gravure model Fumika Baba is shown in an AKB48 cosplay costume being sexually assaulted.

In Na mo naki Fukusha Zegen (Nameless Revenger Zegen, 名もなき復讐者 ZEGEN), Baba plays a prostitute who gives sensual massages to her clients before sex. One session when she is dressed up like an AKB48 idol is rougher than expected and she is raped by the client.

While that is certainly rougher sex than the kind we usually like to watch, there’s no denying that Fumika looks great in an AKB48 costume.

Based on a novel, the TV series is broadcast on Kansai TV late on Thursday nights (since August 30th) and also stars former AKB48 idol Mariya Nagao (as another prostitute) and the model Aina Yamada.

This is quite a big period for Fumika Baba. Over the summer, she had a lead role in another TV drama, Yuri Dano Kan Dano (Is It a Lily?), which was a lesbian romance, and she is currently gracing the cover of the magazine anan with a shoot that really accentuates her bust.

Anticipation is building over the adult video debut of a lady being trumpeted as the “beauty from Kobe.”

Known only as Mino (美乃), the goddess has an insane F-cup (?) bust and will apparently release her first porn DVD at the end of October from Eightman Production.

Whoever she is and wherever she came from is irrelevant at this point. I mean, just look at that body. And at those breasts.

The hair nude (full-frontal) shoot photos have already set the Japanese internet on fire. Let’s now see if that translates into DVD sales and then an extended porn career for this stunning Mino.

Sometimes sex can feel so good, it’s like you are flying. Wait, what? All right, that’s not the best metaphor for describing the euphoria of hot sex.

But apparently it’s the inspiration behind this strange new adult video from Golden Time.

The porn release (gdhh00165) is 230 minutes of a woman being thrown into the air by the “super high-speed piston” that is her partner’s penis.

The woman in question is meant to be schoolgirl virgin. But when she rides her male lover in the cowgirl position, her feet start to leave the ground with his thrusting. That’s quite a bounce.

So not quite the mile-high club. More like the meter-high club?

Unfortunately the preview images make the AV look like some very private shots taken from an Aum Shinrikyo facility during the early 1990s. The Aum cult’s guru claimed to be able to levitate!

Nonetheless, we are very curious to watch this AV — and also the behind-the-scenes making-of footage to see how they achieved those “flying” shots.

If a job needs doing, hire a professional.

And that’s what the makers of the The Naked Director did.

For a drama series about the adult video pioneer Toru Muranishi, you need to include plenty of sex on camera.

We’ve already looked at the nude scenes in the Netflix series by the likes of newcomer Misato Morita, gravure idol Ruri Shinato, and former AKB48 Ami Tomite, among others. The makers even threw in a sex scene with a non-Japanese actress, Jade Albany Pietrantonio.

But for a truly realistic result, you need actual porn stars. And so the producers sensibly hired Nanami Kawakami (川上奈々美) to do nude sex scenes.

The alluring Japanese beauty is shown in vigorous sex scenes both indoors and outdoors (it’s essentially one extended scene from several angles). And you know you can trust her depiction of performing porn for the cameras, since the 26-year-old has a wealth of experience herself.

We like the attention to details, like how her bush is covered by a kind of fabric. This is the kind of technique that AV used before the days of pixellation.
