Regular readers may remember the Upskirt Umbrella from a few years back, a form of rain protection that might just get you arrested. If you love a panchira upskirt view of a girl’s panties, you are in the right country. The latest verification of this comes from the mobile game Azur Lane, in which historical warships…

Up-and-coming actress Minami Hamabe is very much in the Emi Takei and Suzu and Alice Hirose “style” of celebrity: admired for her sweet girl-next-door purity. Of course, that doesn’t mean she’s not a human being with an adult body. As a 21-year-old, she has needs and it would be natural for her to have boyfriends….

We recently wrote about Kana Kurashina’s incredible semi-nude Anan magazine shoot. It reminded us yet again what a great magazine it is: nominally a fashion and lifestyle publication for women, it’s regular sex-themed issues and provocative cover shoots with established models and female actors have continued to grab attention (and seriously boost the careers of…

Japan’s new environment minister likes big breasts. Well, who doesn’t? But when you’re a politician, you should perhaps take more care with what information you make public. Tsuyoshi Yamaguchi, though, either doesn’t mind the world knowing his tastes or doesn’t understand how Twitter works. Because people have spotted that the 67-year-old, who is married with…

Former AKB48 member Minami Takahashi, who got married in May 2019 on the first day of the Reiwa era, has revealed that she doesn’t like kissing her husband. This hardly sounds promising for their nuptial bliss, but the reason is pretty understandable. As the 30-year-old shared with the whole nation on a recently broadcast TV…

Golf has long been big in Japan, though it’s still mainly a man’s sport. The recent rise of female golfers have leveled the playing field somewhat — not to mention made stars (and sex symbols) of certain players like Hinako Shibuno. Following swiftly on from the sexy shoot by fellow golfer (and thirtysomething jukujo) Makoto…

We recently wrote about Urara Uraraka’s new “maternity nude” photo book, citing the precedent for such pregnancy shoots in Japan among celebrities and idols. One of the examples we mentioned was Angelica Michibata, who posed for a fairly modest (technically non-nude) one in 2018. Now Angelica Michibata is back in the news with reports that…

Old love hotels in Japan have long enjoyed a special brand of fandom, either for their garish visuals or their increasingly haikyo-style “abandoned” status. But a new sort of love hotel otaku is emerging. And they are young women who visit the establishments by themselves. We previously mentioned the 20-year-old student whose YouTube channel was…

Japan is known for its large numbers of seniors. Not only are seniors numerically significant — almost 30% of the population are over 65 — but they still dominate politics, bureaucracy, and even entertainment, with older people (especially men) remaining in respected positions. This can lead to trouble. After the notorious case earlier this year…

What kind of female bust do you like? It’s a question we often ponder in various ways for far too long each day. Apparently, we’re not alone and a lingerie company in Osaka even went so far as to do an online survey to find out the answer. In mid-September, Maruko asked 800 people, even…
