While this is news sad enough in itself, then comes two bits of intriguing details.

She was married in September 2010 but did not say so until now, apparently out of deference to the March 11th, 2011 earthquake (WTF? How is that relevant?), but more likely in order to protect her reputation as a desirable gal that men would still in theory be able to bang if they fantasize hard enough!

The other juice titbit is that her new(ish) hubby is apparently an American, who is one year older than her and whom she first met around a decade ago through a friend. Lucky devil!

Sayaka rose to fame during the Nineties in a bunch of TV dramas and TV commercials, though her activities have quietened of late.

Since this kind of development in an idol’s “career” usually means that they start to curtail semi-nude photo shoots, we thought we’d take this opportunity to pay tribute to the lovely Sayaka Yoshino.

Like I was recently with the Chokouha Masturbator, kind of like a giant black block. But then I gave it a try and saw how well it worked…

Similiarly, when Taro showed me the Shobon 2ch Onahole I almost laughed. What the hell is that? I am a keen user of 2ch and soon clicked that it was a character based on the emoticon character 2channel users often deploy a feeling of shyness.

Naruhodo!

Okay, so I now get why it looks like that, but then why a sex toy? Well, my esteemed fellow TokyoKinky bloggers told me that if you’re a shy Shobon you need a special way to get your groove going…

It kind of slips on you like an onacup courtesy of the hole on the back, giving you a tight grip on the inner chamber, which of course is filled with loads of stimulating goodies. The result is the cutest, most kawaii orgasm this side of Tokyo…

And now we see news that kind of confirms how stranger and strange local pop music is getting. As if the boy band Sexy Zone (comprised of kids only just into their teens) or the army of AKB48 (not as young as they look, but looks are everything), now comes a new group with a much-trumpeted average age of just 13.7.

Formed by an agency to appear in TV dramas and sing terrible songs, Her Best is made up of 14 girls. There were over ten thousand applications to audition, leading to the name Her Best (sounds like “Harvest”, get it?). Look out for music, live performances and TV slots for the new girls on the block. Just don’t expect them to be performing overseas any time soon…

In related news, AKB48 are starring in a new TV commercial campaign dressed as men. So if you like that kind of thing…

Their five-minute set will feature “The Boys” (in English!), the title song of their third full length album. AKB48, eat your hearts out! The gals with the long legs are in charge and all your moe antics count for nothing against pure, unrestrained female sexiness!

Japanese pop stars better start pulling their act together otherwise the leaders of K-Pop are gonna rule the world. It’s significant, if you examine the stats for their YouTube videos, that viewers are coming from all over the world, and much more widely than say, rivals, AKB48, whose fan base is still almost irrevocably Japanese.

Much as I like to support my country, I’d have to say the Koreans have the upper hand in this fight.

*Update* Here’s a video of their performance! Almost a million views in less than 24 hours!

Likewise, Japanese dolls (ningyo) have a long history, as ornaments, theatre puppets and more. The people of Edo era Japan also had their own versions of sex dolls with the “bamboo wife” (chiku-fujin) and its variant names, the “bamboo husband” (chiku-fujin — same sound but different characters), “bamboo guy” (chiku-do), “hug basket” (daki-kago), sleeping companion (soine-kago), “bamboo robe” (take juban), “pipe sleeves” (kuda-juban), “bamboo pillow” (take makura) and so on…

Basically it was a hollow bamboo pillow that you could snuggle up to and simulate sex with, if you were so inclined. Cheaply made by hand, the shapely objects were essentially the poor man’s lay. The samurai had a wife; the barons and shogun had mistresses. The normal farmer might not have anything so when his hand grew dull, he could liven his life up with a bamboo wife (or two).

Ostensibly people had a bamboo wife because they were hot in the humid summer, and apparently it would help keep you cool. But we reckon the gaps between the bamboo very quickly found other uses other than just ventilation.

It’s easy to see how it was just a short jump from this to hug pillows and then full silicone Orient Industry love dolls!

Similarly the Koreans had their own ancient bamboo sex aide called jukbuin. Not bad but I still prefer the ladies from Girls Generation.

The Ange Bihaku is a new version of Real Love Doll Ange, complete with new faces and beautiful white skin.

That’s what “Bihaku” means. It’s one of those terms that Shiseido and the cosmetics companies use a lot, and it quite important to Japanese concepts of beauty.

We got a sample sent over from KanojoToys and I’ve been trying out how flexible the Bihaku body is. Personally I’m not a big fan of posing — though some guys love taking photos, I know — but I do like different sexual positions, so Ange’s versatility is a major plus for me. What’s more, her “bihaku” skin makes her look and feel VERY Japanese.

Those clever chappies at SOD have stopped making great Japanese porn for a moment and turned their attentions to the ladies. They came up with this Mobile Mini Denma, a funky and pop design vibrator that looks like a little capsule dangling from your phone.

But open this up and you have a buzzing miniature vibrator that will hit just the right spots on your you-know-where. Perfect for when you’re feeling just a little bit horny at work and need a quick fix… And the best thing is you can have it brazenly hanging on your phone and no one will know!

SOD brought in porn star Azumi Harusaki to try it out and she seemed mighty pleased with the results!

I’m a girl with serious needs so I’ve now got three hanging from my keitai!

There have already been plenty of innovative adult content for phones, including idol dating SIMs and sexy “clothes-ripping” apps. Also, the AKB48 girls have also previously exploited digital tools to get closer to fans in an augmented reality way, and needless to say the darker side of Japanese sexuality quickly began to use mobile phone gaming websites as a means to connect with (underage) girls and enjo kosai “sponsored” dating. Hell, you can even play poker with Japanese porn stars.

So this is certainly just another development in a long and popular trend…

It’s not yet available on smartphones and is still only a Beta version. But if this is a hit we can likely see more of the same!

In her latest TV advertising campaign, some innovative ad guys came up with the idea of having Mana dance in a sexy move reminiscent of Korean girl band KARA.

So we get to see Mana-chan gyrate her “thighs” while wearing a short skirt. K-pop group KARA alone have caused a sensation here and in their native Korea for their too-sexy dance moves. So apparently getting a young infant to imitate their groove was a good idea…

We guess the gimmick is the fun of marrying one popular icon with another booming trend. But boy, did you guys screw this up! This is about as low as it can get — overtly sexualizing a seven-year old just to sell some beauty products!

Hamasaki’s sales have ailed in recent years and we speculated that perhaps she might retire and start a family.

The latest twist is that Ayumi and Manuel Schwarz are already divorced! Less than a year is not a great length for any marriage, to be sure, but Ayumi officially blames the March 11th earthquake, which forced her to stay in Japan and remain close to her beloved fans. Rather than move to America with hubby, where he lives and works, she could not leave, thus they grew apart emotionally as well as physically.

Okay, sounds plausible. But then emerges this raunchy photo book by photographer Leslie Kee! In it Manuel is depicted in highly homoerotic poses that seem very much to be appealing to the Shinjuku Ni-chome crowd.

Could this be the real reason for why Ayumi went for a quick divorce? Her husband wasn’t quite what she expected him to be…?
