Rope Artist: Miura Takumi
Akechi Denki Memorial

Review:
Miura Takumi is one of the most talented of the younger Kinbaku masters in Japan today. A disciple and friend of the late Akechi Denki sensei, Miura ties in a manner that closely resembles that great master whom he studied so closely. This excellent and generous 40-minute program is a wonderful opportunity for Shibari fans unfamiliar with this fine Nawashi’s skills to become better acquainted. Read More

Rope Artist: Asagi Ageha
Live @ Kabukicho DX

Review:
The art of Shibari is a curious and wonderful thing that it inspires so many different artists and their interpretations. Cases in point are the exciting one-woman shows available for view on this page. And now to the legendary Saotome Hiromi and the skillful Kuritorisu we must add the athletic, talented and very beautiful, Asagi Ageha! Read More

Rope Artist: Saotome Hiromi
Live @ Wakamatsu Gekijo

Review:
It would not be too much to say that the multitalented Saotome Hiromi is a national celebrity in Japan. Performance artist, author (of several fine books on the SM scene and it's history) and confidant of such legendary sensei as Chimuo Nureki and the late Osada Eikichi, she is both brilliant of mind and exciting to watch.

Rope Artist: Kanno Chiaki
Live @ Kabukicho DX

Review:
Kanno Chiaki is one of the better female nawashi currently active. Her work has been photographed and published by the great Norio Sugiura, she maintains an active website, and she often performs in SM clubs. This vid is a faithful record of one of her strip theater dates and clearly shows her talents off to a fine advantage. Read More

Saotome Hiromi Live at Jail Tokyo

Review:
For anyone interested in the unusual byways of Japanese performance art, this video is a must see. It features the amazing Saotome Hiromi (a legitimate celebrity in Japan) doing her trademark seppuku (suicide by short dagger) act and much more besides. Read More

Clitoris Live (II) at Wakamatsu Gekijo

Review:
One certainly has to give Clitoris an "A" (or should that be an "E") for effort for this piece of performance art recently presented in a Tokyo strip theater. While she might not be as deliberately thoughtful or artistic as the better known Saotome Hiromi, this show moves along w/a zany inventiveness all its own. It also moves like an express train, clocking in at breathless 23 minutes as it showcases Clitoris' wild and amusingly inventive ideas. Read More

Rope Artist: Serina Komuro
Live @ Mistress Bar

Produced by Osada Steve

Review:
Mistress Serina Komuro displays her kinbaku skills on two submissive angels in this breathtaking live show. Rope bondage, rope suspension, candle wax, hard whipping, and merciless kicking. Read More
