In the latest of our reports on how the coronavirus is affecting the adult industry in Japan, we highlight love hotels, the temporary accommodation that exist for couples to have sex. Love hotels are enjoying a supposed boom due to the pandemic and semi-lockdown measures imposed by the government. An article we saw recently claims…

Its name might be a bit of a mouthful, but the Maga Kore Z-Ton Maji Hada Mesu Dachi Real Body Hole’s design more than lives up to the promises of the embellished title. Part of the ongoing Maga Kore manga-inspired collection by KM Produce in collaboration with various partners, this luxury masturbator is based on…

May the Shinto gods bless Japan’s generous sharers of nude selfies. If you like Japanese girls with a bit of meat on their bones, this amateur is for you.

The latest example of this was exposed, if you will pardon the expression, by a bikini photo shoot by NGT48’s Ayuka Nakamura. In the Australian shoot, the up-and-coming idol in…
