Kotaku
Even cops can't stop Ass Flasher. Tush thong lady Asuka Sawamoto hit Akihabara this week and hit it hard — two cheeks at a time. Previously, Sawamoto mooned all of nerdom, causing a mob scene of sweaty dorks with cameras and boners. The act hit Yahoo! News Japan. While the cops have been cracking down on Akihabara street performances to hopes of avoiding such shameful (and potentially dangerous) displays. The "singer" was back for the hat trick this Sunday, putting her arse out for the third time. This time TV crews were on hand to catch the cheeky act and butt in for a quick interview or two.
Hit the jump for a pic of the ass flashery madness! It's somewhat safe for work. But creepy as hell.

In short: Something happened in Japan which caused more arousal.
bitches be crazy
This is the funniest Kotaku headline I've seen in a while :D
I don't know what's worse, the fact that she enjoys showing off her nether regions in public (which really isn't such a bad thing, since she's not ugly), or that it looks like she's about to be gang-raped in every picture.
I knew she would be back! Asuka sure is crazy. A purple thong?! YUCK!
bascraft get me this lass's phone number
i have a business proposition for her
People will do anything for publicity...
That is some serious exhibitionism there.
I'm impressed that it's a "civilized mob." Meaning (as far as I know) nobody tries to touch her or kidnap her or steal her clothes. Rather they just respectfully take pictures of her tush and then leave to give someone else a turn.
It's oddly remarkable.
Ingredients for Pandemonium (Japan-style):
1 Voyeurist Woman
Thousands of Sex-starved men
2 TV News Crews
Mix well in Akihabara environment, wait for word to get out. Enjoy results.
@Atheist Jew: You are so, so right. That's really quite disturbing!
Yay, lovely way to start a working week !
Thanks kotaku. :)
I've never been to Japan, but I have to wonder what women on the beaches wear? Are there no beaches?
She's flashing opaque panties, less scandalous things are on primetime television in the U.S., and Europeans consider Americans prudish about sex. From the size of the crowds for this mild flashing, Japanese males must be ready to explode...
@Faradin: As crazy as she may be refering to her as a "bitch" is a no-no mate.
I'd love to hear the lead in for an ass display in the middle of an interview:
"Yes, the album is being edited and will be in stores in two weeks. Now is the time on Sprockets when I hike my skirt up. These cheeks be white so set your f-stop accordingly, boys...WHOOSH!"
Aww man, I rarely go to Akiba, and finally I decided to make a trip out there on Saturday. Should've gone on Sunday, apparently!
@dead_red_eyes: Purple is quite alright by me...In fact it's one of my more favored colors...
I can think of at least 10000 things more worthy of a blog post than this.....at least you could have thrown in a pic of a woman with a real ass.
@Witzbold: uh....asians be crazy?
and the asscheeks only come out when it's warm outside...
it's too damm cold for ass flash in Misawa...
Seriously, why is this even worthy of a post here? I'm starting to feel shame visiting this site ... Living in germany we have bare titties on television everyday even in the afternoon so I'm by no means prude but lately every third post on this site seems to be either about boob-pillows, boob-figurines, boob-manga-games, or some japanes girls flashing their bits in schooluniforms!
It's one thing to post these stories to make fun of them but lately judging by the hitcounts of these "news"-items it seems to be driven by a "sex-sells" mentality which I can only pitty. This site used to be better than this.
Oh please way to be behind the times japan, britney spears does this like every other day. America owns!
Oh say can you see
by the dawns early light...
@platinum: Aw, c'mon, have a little light-hearted fun. And it's not like this is some COMPLETELY random story. It's recurring from previous entries. Kotaku can't help that these get huge hit counts.
And why again is she showing her butt? Can't understand those Japanese interviews.
And to those who are complaining - Kotaku at night is to show us the mood and feeling of videogame culture in Japan. And the waste majority of those people standing around her are most certainly otakus. So there you go - a justification - quick, mindless and full with prejudices!
I love random stories
@platinum:
Kotaku.
Now without the k.
Otaku.
Need I be more in-depth?
@Faradin:
You just keep putting that foot further into your mouth don't you?
@Witzbold: witz, im clueless why she does this. is it some kind of media exposure thing? color me confused.
Chick needs to get some ass on her before she starts to go off and flash it around.
@zanzibarlegend:
I don't think it's a media exposure thing, I think she just likes showing off her stuff and the attention she gets from it. Here's what she had to say about the last ass flashing:
""I've always performed in sets of a live performance and photo shoot... I've been doing this stuff in Akihabara since July last year... I'm the most hated person in Akihabara... I can't help it if some people want to complain... And I'd say the warmer weather probably means I'll be showing even more skin than I have until now.""

@platinum: Kotaku. Gossip, news, leaks, and completely irrelevant shit for obsessive gamers.
@zanzibarlegend: Before when her webpage gallery was working she would wear all sorts of racy stuff. So I guess she does it becuase she likes the attention and what better way to do it by flashing skin in Akiba.
Im guessing shes just trying to get "popular".
Her singing isnt anything that special so looks like shes trying to make up for it elsewhere.
@AncientFlounder: - "Chick needs to get some ass on her before she starts to go off and flash it around."
LOL!!! Yeah, I too think that she suffers from no ass. Me ... I like big, round asses.
+ Watch video
I'm loving the use of the laughing man logo to cover up the faces.
@Rokku-Ri:
It's kind of creepy too isn't it?
Man, those guys are crazy for the butt-shot! Look at the pics on the Akiba Blog... They're zoomed right up in there!
Weird, yet hilarious.
Oh, and I would be zoomed right up in there too. Yeah.
Her mother must be damn proud of her.
Thats a lot of fucking people for a few panty shots that you can easily find online. Oh well, I guess people enjoy these things when they can see it for their own eyes.
Still, look at that freaking crowd.
BUKAKE EVERYWHERE!!! LMAO!!!
This is one of those crazy types of porns where you have to be a weirdo to like... LMAO
What's wrong with her? attentioen seeker, much?
With all those cameras out, you'd think nobody's looked at a butt before and nobody will ever look at one again. I just clicked on the link by accident, thinking the post would be about a sequel to the incredible PC FPS title, Butt Flasher.
I don't really know what to think of this...
I will say this though. I hope those otakus keep there head on good shoulders and don't decide to do anything stupid.
They tried to ban her, eh?
Just goes to prove you can't legislate idiots.
I really dig the way they placed The Laughing Man icon on top of the photografers and not her butt. seriously, Japan, what the hell?
well to be honest, after looking at the DVD's she's starred in.
Flashing her arse is quite tame and i dare say pretty much normal.
But i guess explicit DVD's of your favourite idol pales in comparison when she's only a couple of metres from you in the flesh.
:p
If a girl did that over here, no one would even stop to take a picture...
We'd just be like wtf is wrong with her?
Hmm must be a drugy, just ignore her..
Amsterdam FTW!
I'm movin' to Japan...
@Shiryu: My thoughts exactly, but that's japan for you.
lol what does this have to do with games exactly?
It could be I'm just stoned, but I found the middle picture on the site strangely moving...
In a creepy "is this who we've become" kind of way.
Poor undersexed japs. The world is a truly twisted beast.
@coyotemoon722: Do you think it is appropriate to refer to Japanese people that way?
