We’ve just come across this hilarious tumblr blog called Where is Tenga? As you might guess from the name, it’s a photo blog featuring Tenga onacups and other designer Tenga adult toys in unusual places, often posed in cute and surprising ways. If you thought Tenga were just there for your private enjoyment, think again!…

If you like a girl with intelligence — and we know there are plenty of hot, smart girls in Japan — then don’t be put off by science students! Sure, they have a kind of geeky image but there is a whole legion of lovely ladies manning (no pun intended) the labs, their beautiful faces…

Talk about having “something to declare” in your luggage… A university student has tried to kidnap a young girl by forcing her into a travel bag and then take her in a taxi to make good his flight.

A Kawasaki city civil servant and bank employee have been caught sneaking in to shoot pictures of a middle school student cheerleading dance event.

The end of the year might still be months away but the merchandising machine knows no time limits for AKB48, whose new official 2013 calendar promises to include “god panties”.

Ten years ago it was completely different really, but the web has helped legitimize the erotic art of 100% silicone love dolls. We wanted to…

One of the Japanese tabloids is currently running pics apparently of former AKB48 idol Atsuko Maeda looking drunk, dishevelled and generally not very cute. She is with some guy (apparently an actor) in rather dubious circumstances, and is even seemingly photographed being carried to a waiting car possibly without any underwear on. Tabloids are not…

We’ve just come across the work of designer Saeborg and we are at a total loss to describe it. Erotic? Comic? Hentai? Or what? Saeborg makes a inflatable rubber costumes, a whole “farm” with animals, bizarre semi-anime, semi-human farmer. It’s a world of rubber and Heidi Ho-style motifs.
