Research regularly shows that Japanese women’s breasts are getting larger. And now we have data to prove it over a 40-year period. Bra maker Triumph — known for its rather silly concept bras — nonetheless takes mammaries seriously, as you’d expect, and knowing the size of its customers’ boobs are inevitably top of its list…

Tenga has produced some of Japan’s, if not the world’s, best sex toys. As a brand, it already has its own stores. And now Tenga finally has its own vending machines. (The Tenga Egg vending machine once spotted in Nakano Broadway, Tokyo, was apparently not an official vendor.) Anyone now with an urge to buy…

As we know, Comiket is less about comics and more about cosplay. Specifically, female cosplayers. Stars like Enako can attract huge crowds (and money). But even lesser-known female cosplayers can pull in a strong audience, though, as one example from the recent Comiket 96 showed, this phenomenon can have unpleasant consequences if you are not…

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…

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,…

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…

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…

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 —…

The Zozosuit is a tailor-made polka dot bodysuit. Less a genuinely interesting service/product than a publicity stunt by Japanese online fashion retailer Zozotown, it was, at least initially, a flop. But one very confident Japanese woman with a preference for nude selfies (or a young lady with a very kinky boyfriend) has found a new…

The TV announcer Minami Tanaka (田中みな実) has rewarded her legions of fans with her first photo book. Moreover, it’s not a tame one. While the 32-year-old Tanaka stops short of actual nudity, the preview images show plenty of bust and butt. What a stunner. Her debut photo book, as yet untitled, goes on sale from…
