After being snapped going home with her boyfriend recently (I love the smile on her face, is she thinking about the upcoming hanky-panky?), the hot haafu Japanese-French TV presenter Hélène Hayama has announced she is to marry. There’s been lots of celebrity marriages announced in the past few weeks, including singer Takako Uehara, Korean actress…

An otaku engineer has devised a system so that his lust for idols will not be hampered by the constraints of the 2D. Now he has created a poster that can respond to being “kissed”, perfect for reenacting his fantasies of making out with his favorite fantasy girls. We love how the young guy who…

We’ve talked before about Edo era Tokyo sex shops. Well, the locals also had their own sex dolls as well, called Azumagata Ningyo (吾妻形人形). After purchasing your “dutch wife” from Yotsumeya, you took the Tenga of its day back home for some fun. It was a crude device, something like a picture school, covered with…

Last week we saw really stormy weather in Japan, not just once but twice. Windows smashed. Trash was blowing everywhere. One unlikely side effect of the weekday storm is that there were more guests than usual at Tokyo’s love hotels. Yes, this kind of unusual weather is the perfect excuse for some hanky panky. On…

Before there was SOD, JAV and all their bizarre hentai genre, Japanese porn was a different affair. Often not “hard core” in the true sense of the word and watched in special movie theaters, “pink” cinema was led by Nikkatsu and their “Roman Porno” genre during the Seventies. Though watching them now they seem rather…

Former Miss Universe Japan runner-up, model, and actress Biwon has admitting having plastic surgery last year. We found this amusing because many Japanese girls like to discard the amazing bijin quality in Korean women with the excuse that it’s all just due to plastic surgery. Certainly it is more common and latent on the peninsular….

The just-opened Katamomiya is for girls to indulge in some kata-momi (shoulder massage). Guys can go too and get a massage, but the main target are the ladies, hence why the store is located opposite 109 in Shibuya! Although it’s not a sex shop (so don’t expect any “extras”), there’s a definite erotic element to…

As we all know, Japan — or at least, Japanese pop culture — has a serious liking for the yaeba snaggletooth. Some girls even get their teeth changed so that they have the protruding, pointy upper canine look. Apparently there is so much demand for this brand of beauty from certain kinds of men that…

Maki Goto is proof that you can have a life after being part of a multi-member pop band. A former Morning Musume starlet, Maki is one of the few who has made that transition to soledom with some degree of success. Around a year ago, though, sadly she basically retired from showbiz, but not before…

Ichiro Ozawa, the man once certain to be Prime Minister before scandal forced him to resign, has been found innocent on fraud charges. No one seems convinced by the verdict, including us, which is why we couldn’t resist posting this story currently running wild in the tabloids. According to Shukan Bungei, Ozawa apparently had an…
