Gal’s tea time talk about a foreign tongue treat
October 31, 2010
“I was having a cup of tea with my friend, when she abruptly asked me, ‘Say, have you ever had sex with a foreigner?’
“My reply was, ‘No, they’ve all been Japanese.’”
“She surprised me by confessing that she’d made it with one.”
Thus begins a steamy amateur submission from the November issue of women’s soft porn magazine Amour, as excerpted in Shukan Bunshun (Nov. 4).
The alien in question turned out to be an American teacher of English conversation.
“When he went down on me, his tongue was so long I felt like I was getting eaten up,” the friend continues. “He trust it so far up, it felt like a penis.” Read more
Dead spin: Panasonic discontinues Technics analog turntables
October 28, 2010
TOKYO (TR) – Fans of vinyl were dealt another blow when consumer electronics company Panasonic announced earlier this month that it would be discontinuing the analog products within its Technics brand, most notably the legendary line of analog turntables.
On October 20, the company said that it was winding down production of the Technics SL-1200MK6 analog turntable, the SH-EX1200 analog audio mixer and the RP-DH1200 and RP-DJ1200 stereo headphones due to challenges in the marketplace.
“Panasonic decided to end production mainly due to a decline in demand for these analog products and also the growing difficulty of procuring key analog components necessary to sustain production,” the company said in statement issued to The Tokyo Reporter. Read more

October 18, 2010
The arrest of an AV president for employing the acting services of a teenage girl is sending shock waves through Japan’s porn industry, reports weekly tabloid Shukan Jitsuwa (Oct. 28).
On October 7, Tokyo Metropolitan Police collared the president and a manager of an AV (that is, adult video) production house, located in Bunkyo Ward, for violating prostitution and pornography statutes regarding child welfare following revelations that a 16-year-old girl was recruited by the firm to star in multiple porn DVDs.
Note: The Mainichi Shimbun (Oct. 8) lists the names of the suspects as Akihiro Yukimura, 28, and 25-year-old Toshiyuki Ogawa.
The weekly explains that in January the president placed classified ads on mobile phone sites for recruitment purposes and subsequently brokered a deal with a 16-year-old from Chiba Prefecture. Read more
Assassin of Inejiro Asanuma remembered by right-wing groups on 50-year anniversary
October 14, 2010
Photo of Otoya Yamaguchi held by right-wing member Koichi Mizawa at the Hibiya Public Hall on Tuesday.
TOKYO (TR) – Right-wing groups celebrated the assassination of socialist politician Inejiro Asanuma by holding a small ceremony to honor his killer, Otoya Yamaguchi, at Hibiya Park in Tokyo’s Chiyoda Ward on Tuesday, the 50-year anniversary of the gruesome event.
Roughly 20 members of various right-wing organizations congregated in front of the Hibiya Public Hall just before 3:03 p.m, the time when the 17-year-old Yamaguchi, brandishing a sword, rushed the stage while Asanuma, head of the Japanese Socialist Party, spoke during a political debate prior to lower house elections. (Other reports indicate the attack actually took place at 3:05 p.m.)
Nationalists had at that time strongly opposed Asanuma, who criticized the Liberal Democratic Party and the United States, proclaiming the latter to be the common enemy of the Japanese and Chinese peoples during a speech in Beijing the year before. He also attempted to block a bill in the Diet that would establish the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between Japan and the U.S. Read more
Jezebel in Osaka joint uses feminine guile to turn tables on her captor
October 12, 2010
Sometimes form follows art. Some time ago there was a famous V-Cinema film about monkey business behind bars titled “Female Prisoner #701 Scorpion.” This time, reports Shukan Jitsuwa (Oct. 21), something occurred in an Osaka detention facility that was remarkably similar to the plot of the film.
On September 29, senior police inspector Yasuyuki Takagi, age 49, was placed under arrest. Takagi had been attached to the administration section of the detention facility at Makikata City in east Osaka Prefecture.
According to the charges, Takagi had engaged in sexual relations on the morning of September 10, 2009, with a woman who had been confined to the facility for stimulant drug abuse.
“Takagi was working the night shift,” relates a reporter from the local newspaper. “He was invited by the woman to engage in sex. It seems she sucked him off.
“The case became known when the woman was detained on a similar charge in July of this year at a hotel in Neyagawa City,” the reporter continues. “‘Takagi had been kind to me, so I thought I’d reciprocate,’ she told her captors. ‘We waited until the guard was away and then embraced.’” Read more
On the record: Japan’s last vinyl factory administers proficiency exam
October 10, 2010
TOKYO (TR) – There are still those for whom the world spins at exactly 33 revolutions per minute. Digital MP3 downloads and YouTube videos may now be the formats of choice in the home and clubs, but the sound of a cartridge needle riding over the groove of a vinyl slab — scratches, skips and all — is quite literally music to the ears of many audiophiles.
In an effort to raise awareness for this niche format, this weekend vinyl junkies will be asked to put their styluses aside and pick up pencils. Toyo Kasei, the owner of Japan’s last fully functioning pressing plant, will hold a proficiency exam dedicated solely to stacks of wax.
“The exam is designed to expose a new audience to the joy of vinyl records,” says Eiji Hirata, special assistant to the president. “We also would like those from older generations to revisit the experience of listening to them.” Read more
Lustful lady driving instructor goes for car-nal cavorting
October 10, 2010
“I’m just nuts about guys, but I also love driving. Thinking I might find a way to combine business and pleasure, I obtained certification as a driving instructor. Naturally I was careful not to do anything to upset the boss. One day I went to work wearing a miniskirt and revealing blouse and it just so happened that my student was a good-looking young fella. And his assignment that day was to practice driving on public roads.”
Thus begins another filthy feminine fantasy from the October issue of Ai no Taiken Special Deluxe, as introduced in Shukan Bunshun (Oct. 7).
“‘If you’re dressed like that,’ he said to me, ‘I suppose I can expect a variety of services.’
“I directed him to head for a spot where there was no one around. No sooner had he applied the parking brake than he slid his hand up my leg. Read more

October 9, 2010
Three men were arrested last month in Ishikawa Prefecture for employing the sexual services of an extremely resourceful middle school girl on her summer break, reports Shukan Jitsuwa (Oct. 14).
Ishikawa prefectural police from the Kanazawa City station fingered 58-year-old school teacher Hideo Higashi and company employees Koji Ishizaka, 39, and Hiromi Nakamura, 38, on September 21 for violating prostitution and pornography statutes regarding child welfare following various encounters with a 13-year-old girl at hotels in the prefecture during July and August.
Higashi, a teacher at Higashi Asakawa Elementary School, met the student at Kanazawa City hotels on July 30 and August 11, upon which he was charged 40,000 yen per visit. Ishizaka and Nakamura utilized her services at Kanazawa City and Shirayama City hotels on the same day, July 25.
“These three suspects were put in touch with the girl via a professional driver, Eihan Yamada, a 31-year-old who has already been indicted for promoting prostitution involving a minor,” says an individual related to the investigation. “Yamada posted classified ads on mobile phone sites for recruitment purposes and brokered deals with interested girls, offering them between 20,000 and 40,000 yen as pay.” Read more

Perhaps we should apologize for the jocular verse above, because when push comes to shove, it’s no laughing matter.
Weekly Playboy (Oct. 18) reports that a rather disturbing piece of news began circulating around the Web from mid-September.
Posted on an unnamed site was an article that read: “A high school boy was found dead in his room, bare from the waist down. According to an examination performed on his body at Miyagi Prefectural Hospital, earlier that day he had masturbated several dozen times. The cause of death was determined to be over secretion of sex hormones.” Read more
