We just never cease to be amazed by Tenga, the Japanese adult toy brand that half designer sex accessory, half lifestyle choice. Tenga first shot to fame with the Tenga Flip Hole. Since then it hasn’t looked back! After art exhibitions, music events at Womb and dozens of eggs, 3D toys and incredible-looking masturbators, Tenga…

In the rich and varied pantheon of Japanese moe and fetishes, this is a new one for us. Tired with not only how a regular water cooler looks but also what it dispenses, one enterprising otaku has added a fixture to the unit. It’s a life-sized cardboard version of a sexy but coy Japanese schoolgirl…

DMM, a major Japanese online retailer for adult goods (okay, they also do a lot of regular DVD rental and retail too), have taken a step into a new kind of service. They have set up DMM Community for people (guys?) to become “horny friends” and to talk about, well, sexy stuff. We also love…

The unmarried MILF-like beauty Ichijo applied to SOD and in the making of her virgin feature she was actually embracing the body of a man for…

We all know and love the likes of Maria Ozawa. But something like 95% of Japanese porn is populated not by stars but by so-called kikaku joyu, or “project actresses” — these are the unsung heroines of an industry that products 20,000 titles a year. In the same way that American porn has anonymous fluffers…

An incredibly indiscreet pervert taking photos (or video) of a girl’s underwear on a busy train was himself photographed in the act. The image of him being incredibly unsubtle in his crime soon enough went viral on Twitter. The photo was taken by someone at 17:04 before arriving at Kawaguchi Station on the Keihin-Tohoku Line,…

Japan Fetish Ball, presented by the Tokyo Kink Society (no relation to this blog!), will be unveiling its unique display of alternative sexuality this Saturday at the Christon Cafe Tokyo in Shinjuku.
