After her sexual assault and the subsequent scandal that engulfed the NGT48 management in late 2018, Maho Yamaguchi left the idol group under a cloud of trauma and fury. She has, however, decided to return to the entertainment and idol world — but on her own terms.

As we reported last month, this involves a rather surprisingly provocative photo book. Given her history of assault, you might expect Maho to tone down the sexualization of her image. But it seems she is fine with that as long as she has management she can trust.

To further tantalize fans, now behind-the-scenes footage has emerged showing Maho delicately stripping off during the shoot.

This is no leak. It was shared by Maho Yamaguchi herself on Twitter and the short video has been viewed, at time of writing, almost 300,000 times.

The photo book, present, goes on sale from September 17th.

Our apologies for the poor quality of the screengrabs in this post. We hope to publish a post with decent scans and images from the photo book in due course.

As former NGT8 idol’s Maho Yamaguchi cements her recovery from the mistreatment she received at the hands of the group’s management with her debut photo book, another ex-AKB group lady is determined to make her mark after graduating.

Previously a member of AKB48 from 2013 to 2017, Nana Owada releases her first photo book, Risutaato (Restart), which came out on September 15th amid reasonable publicity.

As we reported in August, Nana has chosen the semi-nude style of shoot to make a splash, including the classic tebura “hand bra” shot. In fact, though, the first leaked photos from the book, which was shot in Hawaii, show that Nana is even more nude than expected. This is almost as nude as you can get without showing actual muff or nipples.

We suspect there was some careful post-production touching-up (ha ha, not like that), where some lucky photo editors had to remove the nipples and other signs of genitalia. After all, we reckon you can’t do a shoot like this in a pool without at least a flash of something appearing in the final image.

Nana Owada is surprisingly curvy for this type of idol — attracting praise as the “new Sayaka Isoyama,” though we personally think that former AKB48 idol Rina Hirata deserves that title.

Regardless of who gets the crown, the good news is that Nana is a mere 20 years — and has now come of age, legally and professionally — and hopefully with many more such busy years ahead of her.

Ex-NMB48 idol Miyuki Watanabe and ex-AKB48 idol Ayaka Umeda did something a little similar with their photo books, but Nana wins the contest for us — at least for now.

An update on the mega-selling Puni Ana onahole series, the Puni Ana-roid Sex Machine is a new adult toy that is not only an awesome electric male masturbator sleeve but also comes with an integrated voice feature to accentuate the penetration experience.

This “android” masturbator is programmed for one purpose only: servicing your manhood and giving you the best, and perhaps most futuristic, orgasm possible. Start up her systems at the push of a button and let the Puni Ana-roid take care the rest with its seven powerful piston patterns and seven vibration patterns. The controls interface are good ol’ fashioned buttons but that’s nowt wrong with that, since they let you adjust the piston and spinning quite precisely.

If you are worried about your hands getting tired from holding onto this bad boy while it gyrates your member, you can rest assured you can affix the toy to a table or other surface. The end has a suction cup with a hinge so you can angle the toy within a 180-degree range to achieve your preferred thrusting position.

But we think the best and most original feature is the ten-minute anime character sex voice audio, which can be enjoyed via the integrated speaker or included earphones.

That said, we reckon they missed a trick with the naming, though. Why not Puni Ana-droid? That would have really pushed the gynoid fantasies a little more. Not that we need the encouragement.

The Puni Ana-roid Sex Machine is available now for global orders from our friends at Kanojo Toys.

We’ve had a thing for gravure idol Yumi Asahina for quite a while. We’ve, ahem, entertained ourselves by parsing her many photo shoots, especially the ones that exploit her ass for all its incredible worth.

She went fully nude for a hair nude photo book last year (her debut photo book) that had a seriously vintage feel.

But the 26-year-old, G-cup Yumi Asahina has also stripped for one of her many image video releases, which includes explicit shots of her amazing breasts and nipples.

In the video, the slinky Yumi also demonstrates how awesome paizuri would be with her bust through some closeups of her squeezed breasts.

Unfortunately we can’t ascertain exactly which of the videos these screengrabs come from, though we don’t think it’s her latest, Yugen, which comes out at the end of this month. We’re fairly confident it is the image video release that accompanied her debut photo book, “Asahina Gaho.”

We already hinted at this last week when we showcased gravure idol Fumika Baba’s sex scene in a recent TV drama series, but it’s high time we gave her photo shoot for Anan a post of its own. Because it is frigging awesome.

The seriously busty model has burst into the mainstream with her recent acting credits and this latest cover for Anan (issue 2167, September 11th) is likely to cement her reputation.

Man, this is better than most of the shoots that appear in Weekly Playboy and the like.

Anan is nominally a fashion and lifestyle magazine but has a well-established reputation for such cover shoots featuring hot models and actresses in the buff. Just a handful of past examples include Rino Sashihara, Minami Tanaka, Yui Ichikawa, and Nanao. It has produced various “sex” issues that have pushed the conversation on sexuality in pop culture in Japan.

And now Fumika has her own part in this lineage.

Of all the Japanese adult brands out there, Tama Toys is the one that continues to impress — and more often than not in fun, non-flashy ways with its innovative sex toys.

The Anal Pic Tuc is the latest example of the Tama Toys approach: original, cheeky, and straightforward.

Anal Pic Tuc is a hand-shaped, finger dildo that gives you a simple yet very effective way to enjoy the stimulation of anal fingering without the need to use your actual digits. This can be better for hygiene and also enhances the options for pleasure because this “hand” is an anal probe with some serious length — and a greater degree of flexibility than an average human finger.

As our friends at Kanojo Toys say, “this beginner-friendly anal toy features a slender middle finger anal probe that offers the delights of backdoor fingering regardless of your level of experience.” And quite right. Why should anal fingering be off limits to people without experience or the real tools at their disposal?

The Tama Toys Anal Pic Tuc is available internationally now from Kanojo Toys, shipped direct and discreetly from Tokyo to your door.

British-Japanese actress, dancer, and former Ravijour lingerie actress Sonoya Mizuno has added another nude scene to her credits.

In the movie Ambition, Mizuno is seen having sex with a man on a bed before climbing off to get changed. It’s a brief yet sensual scene.

The thriller directed by Robert Shaye was released this month in America.

Born in Tokyo in 1986 and raised in Britain, Mizuno previously did a very memorable full-frontal nude scene in the acclaimed science fiction movie Ex Machina.

She also recently had a main role in the Jonah Hill and Emma Stone Netflix serial Maniac.

Former AKB48 idol and now popular and successful actress Ami Tomite has released a new photo book.

Despite having several quite high-profile acting credits to her name, this is actually only the 25-year-old’s second photo book. That being said, it’s another “hair nude” full-frontal book, this time shot by photographer Keiko Nomura.

Her first came out in 2016 and was shot by the nude veteran Hajime Sawatari. This new effort is from the long-running Gekkan series and came out on August 30th.

Here are some shots.

These are highlights from her raw and sensual first photo book, which we couldn’t help revisiting.

Of course, Ami Tomite has done at least one nude shoot before that was widely published and shared, taken from her debut photo book we think, and has also established a name for herself as an actress willing to take her clothes off for sex scenes. For examples, see her memorable contributions to the The Naked Director and Antiporno.

To follow Ami’s life and career, check out her Instagram account.

We all like a good ahegao “sex face” fantasy, don’t we? Where would adult manga, eroge, hentai, and the like be without those characters with rolling or crossed eyes and tongue sticking out as she winces during sexual intercourse?

Everyone’s favorite fetish toys brand, Tama Toys has created a special onahole inspired by ahegao: the brilliantly named Anime Girl Ahegao Creampie Fuck Onahole.

The masturbator sleeve itself is a packed tunnel of pleasuring gimmicks, designed to deliver sensations that result in, as our friends at Kanojo Toys say, a “brain-numbing orgasm.” This means you “might well make you recreate your own ahegao as your manhood shudders and releases its load.”

But the box art is where it’s at, here featuring a schoolgirl stunner who looks prim and proper in her school uniform, but then wild and busty without her clothes on. As you grip her from behind and slide in and out, she transforms into an untamed creature unable even to maintain the composure of her facial expressions.

The Anime Girl Ahegao Creampie Fuck Onahole is available now internationally from Kanojo Toys.

We wonder, though, if they missed an opportunity here. It might have been even cooler for the onahole itself actually to have a kind of face on it — in this case, of course, an ahegao face. But perhaps the practicalities of attaching a well-rendered face onto a masturbator sleeve are too difficult without taking the toy’s costs to sex-doll levels. Well, we can keep on hoping…

One of Japan’s top adult video idols, Mion Sonoda, has announced her retirement from the industry in October, ostensibly for reasons of personal health.

AV performers frequently “retire” or “graduate,” though this can sometimes just mean they reappear under a new contract with a different agency and production company — and using a new professional name.

But this time it seems like a genuine retirement and Sonoda has announced the news with a personal message for her fans.

She entered the AV industry at the ripe old age of 19 and has since spent over four years delighting fans with her amazing breasts and sexual prowess.

The 24-year-old will leave with a major 160-minute release (TKTABP-905) from Prestige on October 4th.

Mion-san, otsukare sama!

Top porn stars in Japan have a gruelling schedule, with almost constant filming sessions, photo shoots, and promotional events. Since their careers are short and trends are fickle, not to mention the actual fees for appearances even if you are star are relatively low all things considered, they are made to work very hard to earn as much as they can before the flame burns out. This can inevitably have an impact on their health, especially as they are using their bodies in so many unusual ways over the course of a working day.

They can, of course, also supplement their incomes with sugar daddy relationships and prostitution. Perhaps Mion will turn to this avenue to earn a crust in the future. We can but hope…

As they have progressed steadily into their forties, the members of music band Tokio have become a marginal presence on the pop music charts. Instead, they have established themselves on Japanese television as one of the most popular presenters.

A scandal ripped through the lineup last year, however, when member Tatsuya Yamaguchi was exposed as having invited teenagers to his apartment and, apparently in a drunken state, having kissed one. He resigned from the group and left the entertainment world.

Tokio has soldiered on.

One of the remaining members, Shigeru Joshima, has found solace in the arms of a model and did what any 48-year-old in his right mind would do by marrying this lady who is half his age.

That lady is the beautiful gravure model Risa Kikuchi, who is a sprightly 24. Of course, this being Japan, she is pregnant. No condoms is a surefire way to marriage.

Making her gravure debut in 2017, Kikuchi is a haafu: her father is Bangladeshi. To be fair, she was not especially well known in the industry — with, from what we can tell, one image DVD and a single major weekly magazine shoot to her name — but will now be forever renowned as the girl who bagged Shigeru Joshima. (Ironically, Kikuchi’s DVD is currently listed on Amazon Japan as a bestseller. Her name making a big splash in the news last week has no doubt massively boosted its sales.)

This is an unusual occurrence. While the members of such pop bands, ages notwithstanding, can be presumed to be sleeping with groupies, fans, models, actresses, and the like, it is hard for them actually to get hitched.

The members of Arashi, for example, have survived a zillion rumors and tabloid stories about their sex lives, but still seem unable to marry their partners — even when they are the very eligible likes of Mao Inoue. The former group SMAP is another case in point: only Takuya Kimura is married — and to another celebrity. Management and contracts seem to silence the sound of wedding bells.

Tatsuya Yamaguchi had been married (to a former model) but divorced in 2016, which is perhaps another reason he was drinking heavily and kissing underage girls.

Picture the scene. You are a diehard AKB48 fan and you see that your favorite group is advertising tickets that let you go on date with the idol you love. So much better than just the handshaking sessions, right?

Unfortunately, it really was too good to be true.

The tickets for the upcoming AKB48 shows in Fukuoka this November that were officially advertised as “Date Ticket: Experience what it’s like to be an AKB48 member’s lover!?” have since been retracted.

Given that AKB48’s members are banned from having boyfriends, it’s thus little surprise that management won’t actually let you sleep with the idols just for the price of a ticket.

In fact, the description clarified that the tickets allowed you to meet an idol before the show, watch the concert, and then meet her again backstage afterwards.

So no “lover” dimension to the perks.

Following a backlash, the AKB powers that be renamed the package to “Let’s Cheer on the Performing Members with the Other Members.”

So if you actually want to date your AKB48 idol, you will have to wait until they graduate — like some very patient boyfriends have done.

Running at the Sunshine Aquarium in Tokyo until November 27th, the “Lots of Sex Exhibition” (Sei Ippai-ten) is perhaps the most provocatively titled event in the city right now.

Before you get too excited, this night-time exhibition is a fun exploration of copulation of the marine kind.

So if you want to find out — in a pretty hands-on way — about how fish “do it,” then this is the event for you.

Ever wondered how long a barnacle’s cock is? How do seals breed? Learn all this and more.

The whole venue is lit up in pink and purple mood lighting, like it’s some kind of expensive love hotel suite. We suspect the event is, at least in part, inspired by the sex museums of the past and intended to get couples on dates in the mood for the human style of sex. (Sunshine Aquarium is located in Ikebukuro, where there are a lot of actual love hotels.)

In fact, the exhibition even provides visitors with the chance to spy on crabs while they have sex and to cop a feel of a shark’s genitals. The exhibit in question is hidden tastefully inside a black box and we presume is just a replica rather than live, but who knows? The young lady demonstrating the exhibit in the publicity photo certainly looks pleased (or pleasured) by the experience.

And if this is the sort of event that rocks your boat, you can also get a t-shirt and other official merchandise. Because, you know, well, shark sex might make for good street fashion.

A Japanese YouTuber has been identified by netizens as a woman in an adult video who jerks a guy off.

Known for her popular videos about plastic models and construction kits, Kino Kosaka (or Kino Kousaka, 香坂きの) appeared in a 2011 “amateur” (shiroto) porn (1sdmt00514) released by SOD Create in which she was one of several women providing handjobs for the camera. The women’s faces were originally pixellated in the DVD but somehow netizens could figure out it was her.

On October 1st, she published an emotional response to the accusations on her YouTube channel Mokenchu TV explaining and apologizing. She says she was deceived by a street scout into signing what she thought was a kind of TV survey but turned out to be a contract. (As we known, such coercion tactics are very common in JAV.) She apparently did not at first know she would be appearing in a video until she was tricked into entering the vehicle where they were shooting, after which she felt scared because she was unable to leave. When it became apparent that she would be required to jerk a random guy off, she demanded at least gloves. Upon doing the deed, she received her payment of ¥20,000.

Though not a major influencer, Kino Kosaka has nearly 60,000 YouTube subscribers and some of her videos have attracted almost 200,000 views and total cumulative views of 7.3 million. Ironically, her apology video is now one of her biggest viral “hits,” with 142,000 views and counting.

Kosaka is certainly not the first woman in Japan to have her porn past exposed — and she’s not even the first YouTuber. We reported on a similar case last year.

Still, if Kosaka is unable to recover her regular YouTuber career after this unfortunate incident, perhaps she can branch out into adult toys like one of her peers did recently?

The immensely popular Japanese gravure idol Nanoka (菜乃花) has hit thirty and released a new photo book. And as she enters another decade, so she arrives at the next stage in her career: one which she is initiating with a nude shoot.

It’s not hair nude full-frontal territory (yet), but we do get finally to see Nanoka’s ass in all its glory and, as far as we know, it’s the most naked Nanoka has ever been.

The photo book, her fourth, “NN” came out in Japan on September 27th. In at least two shots from it, Nanoka is butt naked. We hope to update with more scans and images when they leak online…

The famously busty model has spent several years gracing the pages of weekly magazines, teasing us with her stunning chest and slim body. What’s next now that she’s shed her clothes for the camera?

Because sometimes you want something really wild inside of you.

The Amazing Beasts is an original series of dildos by online Japanese adult toys retailers Daimaoh. And when we say original, we mean it.

As vibrantly colored as they are sensationally named and astoundingly shaped, these are some of the most incredible fetish dildos we have seen in Japan.

If you felt that being penetrated by or penetrating your partner with a replica stick of goya or a large sweet corn just wasn’t strange or sexy enough, then these beasts should sate your appetite.

The dildos offer shafts and glans like you have never seen on or experienced from a human being (at least, we hope you haven’t).

Have a dragon’s cock sliding into you or, if you are a backdoor play kind of guy or gal, try the long and slender Sakamata butt plug for size.

Choice is also the name of the game here, since the dildos generally offer different colors as well as degrees of texture so you can personalize your toy.

The Daimaoh Amazing Beasts dildos are available for international orders from our friends at Kanojo Toys.

Something of an outlier among the main manufacturers and brands (Toy’s Heart, Tama Toys, Nippori Gift, A-One, etc.) but also producing its own impressive toys, Daimaoh has occupied similar “beast sex” territory before with claw dildos, dolphin plush hug pillow, and more.

Seiyuu (voice actress) Rie Tanaka has stunned the Internet by tweeting preview images from her latest lingerie shoot.

No stranger per se to sexy shoots, this is nonetheless probably the most provocative the 1979-born idol has got as far as we know. Netizens are delighted by what they saw and Tanaka’s original post has received thousands of retweets and likes.

We’re not sure where or when the final images from the shoot will appear — a photo book, a weekly magazine? — but the brief behind-the-scenes footage suggests the photographer was very lucky to get so close to her slinky body.

The shoot was done in a pristine, sunny room with a white bed that accentuated Rie’s slender body and barely-there lingerie.

Now that she has firmly entered “ara-for” (forty-ish) jukujo territory, it’s even sexier. Recently divorced (since 2018) from her much-older husband, her numerous voice work credits include Mobile Suit Gundam as well as J-pop releases back in the 2000s.

As she enters her forties, can we expect Rie to go all-out and reward her fans after years of waiting? Presumably not if she has plenty of voice work lined up, but perhaps so if her coffers need a boost now that she is single again.

We love to browse our ever-growing library of titles by Japanese porn’s established stars, but that doesn’t mean we don’t always have our eyes fixed on the latest debuts and debutants.

One we noticed back in August is the sexy, slinky Marina Asakura (麻倉まりな).

We think — and hope — this lady has the star quality that would catapult her to AV fame.

To be accurate, we can find a release from 2017 with the same performer and she already did some magazine shoots before then, but we think she seemed to explode in August when a stunning new DVD came out.

The only problem? Her releases so far are all image videos, not porn, so she is almost nude but not quite (no nipples on show!) and there’s no sex.

So the 27-year-old Marina is not a porn performer yet, just a gravure idol with a G-cup and a cute face. But that doesn’t mean we can’t hope for a career shift in the imminent future, right?

These days Rena Takeda is increasingly forging a career as an actress and model, but the slim and sexy star got her break in gravure — where the ladies are usually on the bustier side but she won fans aplenty for her slender boy and cute looks.

But Rena Takeda has now announced her “final” gravure shoot, published in the current issue of Weekly Playboy. And she’s going out with a bang: a major, splashy spread shot on location in LA over eight days.

The results feature plenty of sun and sand, and show off her very petite body.

Renarena, as she is known to fans, is still just 22 years old, so we can hope she might return to gravure in the future when she is a jukujo. After all, Rie Tanaka has done just that at the ripe and alluring age of 40.

Incidentally, another gravure staple Yuka Ogura also recently “retired” from cover shoots for weekly magazines, though did so with a great spread for Weekly Playboy.

Fans are delighted by the news that the debut photo book by popular fashion model Eri Oishi (大石絵理) has the idol in the buff.

As the scans now doing the rounds online indicate, the stunning 25-year-old strips off for “honey” (released in late September) and her pert buttocks are on alluring display.

In addition to lovely shots of Eri Oishi in her lingerie or soaking seductively in the bath, fans gets to see her full ass. The fact that it is through a shower wall may be as sensual as it is frustrating…

The slender and “pure”-looking Eri Oishi is a haafu (or more properly, a “quarter”), with a Japanese father and a French-Korean mother. As a celebrity, she is best known for her regular TV appearances, including presenting the weather.

Judging from Instagram posts, she would seem to be good friends with former AKB48 hottie Mariya Nagao.

On a certain television show back in 2013, she confessed to being bisexual. Perhaps for the benefit of her legions of fans she will explore this further in the future? Now that is a photo book we would want to see!
