Okamoto Tenga
Tenga are introducing what they call "sanitary goods for men" - the Okamoto Tenga which is now available in chemists throughout Japan for 1,280 yen (or order on #''#B000W4AWPC,Okamoto tenga,Amazon#''#).
Tengas new marketing strategy is to convince men that they should not be embarrassed about dispatching soldiers and want you to pick up some Okamoto Tenga at the local chemist along with your other shopping. Before Tenga was only available online or at shady shops in back alleys.
Okamoto Tenga also has two aims.
[*] "Correct control of urges for a healthy life." [*] "Prevent abortion, sexual disease/crime via 'unfortunate' intercourse."
Now for the polls - you are under no obligation to answer but would be interesting to see the results - as Tenga say - "All men do it" Muha ^^;
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

Lol. It's even cheaper than buying certain doujins!
Why do they name it Okamoto anyway?

Okamoto is the name of a company that makes other daily goods. Tenga teamed up with Okamoto to get this distributed to chemists I believe.

Okamoto is widely acknowledged in Singapore as a condom brand.

AK-kun,
Condoms in Japan are also known as "skin."
If you greet your Japanese friend with "yo, gimme some skin" s/he may give you strange looks.

Discarge your "energy" regulary is good, I think, a good method to realase stress and bad humour, but to much can be dangerous :)

Now, since this poll didnt specify if you are dispatching your soldiers with a woman (or man if you prefer.. You know, whatever floats your boat), or with Rosey Palm and her five friends, I wonder if this will taint the poll?
Design Consultant
Um.. the cut-away views of these look painful. Like having sex with a cactus.
haha, quite a poll for today Danny, but don't you think you should maybe include something for your female readers as well?
1-5 right here baby!! Though i'm kinda curious as to who selected the 21+. Thats some serious action. I don't think i could do it 3 times a day with my schedule. Aristotle once said something to the extent of: "In all things practice moderation." I think that can apply here as well.

Haha - ACE poll! I always chuckle when you refer to sperm as 'soldiers'! Excellent.
I love the way there going about this like its some kind of revolutionary medical breakthrough rather than, basically a portable rubber orifice that you have your 'soldiers' infiltrate!
Will they sell 'rampant rabbits' in chemists soon, under the same healthy premise?
"Correct control of urges for a healthy life"
Most of us should be super-healthy by now then! Wank yourself slim!

Wow, if we truly disregard all our social learning and accepts ourselves as a bunch of hairy, dirty apes we might be a better world, LOL!

well if its safer than having "unfortunate intercourse" (multiple meanings) then all the better I guess.

"Healthy, functional and makes the Tenga inventor happy when you buy it", they should have said.
achraf1989, surprised? I am too. Not used to see female otaku either, I suppose.
