In the West, porn star Billy Herrington is known for flicks like HotMen CoolBoyz. In Japan, he's an internet icon and dubbed "aniki" or "big brother".
He's achieve meme status, and his clips are often humorously mish mashed and edited. He's the live action equivalent of the Yaranaika Guy.
In Japan, there are even Billy collectible figurines.
Japanese video sharing platform Nico Nico Douga recently held a convention in Chiba, Japan. Herrington was one of the guests of honor. This wasn't a first for him. Herrington has participated in Nico Nico events in the past and met with his Japanese fans.
At this latest event, there were Billy branded mouse pads for folks to fondle and snatch up. And in the above photos, Herrington poses on a life-sized version of the 1/1 scale Saber motorcycle.
