October 27th, 2009 3 comments

There is no denying the sex appeal of the present day gravure girls, it is delightfully displayed in photo-books and videos, in skimpy swimsuits and costumes. I love them all, so bravo to them!

Though it also holds true that no matter how many sexy girls we might meet,our first encounter will always be the one we remember most fondly, and this is how I feel about Yuko Aoki, my first guilty pleasure! She’s the girl who first got me hooked on Asian models and actresses for life. Read more…

One of the great things about ScanLover having its own blog is that I can take a particular news article and go into more detail about it.

Chiaki Takahashi, who is the voice of Litchi Faye Ling for the fighting game BlazBlue, will be getting her own mouse pad. I remember seeing an article on her a while back stating that she was lending her voice talents to the game, but it really didn’t click in my head until I decided to perform a search and see if there was a thread for her within the forum. And lo and behold, there is.

Since this is Asian Beauty Appreciation, I wanted to give you guys an Asian beauty to appreciate. With so many beauties within the forum, I also wanted to feature someone that people may not be aware of and could use some attention.

While going through Beauty Boutique, I came across the thread for Yuka. I’m not too familiar with Yuki, so if you have any additional information on her, you can provide that detail using the comments. What I do know is that she likes basketball and looks good in a bikini.

Mayuka Okada – Pai Pressure01paipressurecover
Saibunkan
Catalog # Saibunkan-47

If you’ve seen the new video Pai Pressure, featuring big bust Gravure idol Mayuka Okada, then you know what I’m talking about. This is not going to be a full scale review. Instead I will talk about just one scene, which we will call A Day at the Beach.

So Okada-san and the crew from Saibunkan set up for a beach shoot at the JWB Resort in Cebu, Phillipines. Okada was wearing a standard tiny bikini; small on top but covering at least half of her breasts. The bottoms displayed the T-back effect in back, while being a bit more normal in front. Definitely this would be a woman you would notice and remember if you crossed paths on the beach – no matter how small her bikini might be. Read more…

Set in the near future in a poor area of Paris dubbed District 13, gangs and drugs are the rule of the day, but two brave men – Leito and Damien – have something to say about that.

The package had arrived slightly more than a week ago. This was my   latest shipment of those superb Japanese television drama series that are responsible for the empty streets in the evenings in Japan. In the USA, movies might rule the roost, but in any Japanese household from Sapporo to Saitama, on any day of the week, more than likely, the residents would be watching a tv drama series.
