A Taste of Japan

Since I love Japan, I thought this would be cool to just have. I used it despite knowing it was going to be majorly short. Since the material is so soft, the length ended up not being an issue, but the softness made it impossible to feel the texture. I don't think I could ever finish from this by itself.

Use

I lived in Japan for two years and still have a love for many things Japanese. I thought this might be a cool product to have. When I bought it, I actually just got it because I liked the packaging. Japanese masterbators tend to be small so I had no intention of using this because I am larger than average, but the curiosity got the best of me one night when my girlfriend was unavailable. It helped stimulate me a little, but it is not what got me off - the porn did. It is stretchy and can fit larger girths, but the length might annoy a lot of users. It's a good travel or starter sleeve though.

Material / Texture

While I did live in Japan, I only picked up on spoken language. The box is written in Japanese, so I had to only go off of Eden's product page which says this is made of TPE which is safe for the body and people who have allergies. In my experience, TPE has felt different from this. It feels like cyberskin to me. Regardless, the material is very stretchy, soft, and has a slight sweet smell to it. It is also porous, sharing is not recommended. It can get sticky which is a major down side. You will want to powder it with NON-Talc powder or cornstarch.

The inside has a studded texture, but the material is too soft to feel it. It also isn't very raised.
    • Light odor
    • Somewhat porous
    • Textured interior

Shape / Design / Size / Fit

The outside of this sleeve looks more interesting than the actual experience was. It has a ridged design that might help you grip better. With lubed hands, nothing will stop this from slipping. It only does so much. The opening has a slightly larger ridge where the hole is. Nothing about this looks anatomically correct. The hole is about the size of a dime. It is only easy to get into if you have lube (some comes in the box but you'll want your own- it sucks). The diameter is about 2", but it stretches a lot. It fit me and was not too tight. It could have been tighter. Smaller guys might think this is to loose. The exit hole is the same size. The is obviously cut and is not cleanly done. The cut is uneven and sloppy. It does not affect using the product but sows the low quality.

It is semi discreet since it is small and does not look like a mold of a vagina.
    • Beginner
    • Discreet look/design

Functions / Performance / Controls

Getting lubricant in this is a bit of a pain. If you try to pour it in the hole it will fall out the end very quickly. I would try to put it on a finger and swirl it around on the inside. you will need lube! It gets sticky without a lot of it. It helps if you lube yourself up too. A good thing is that it does not make a lot of noise.

Sliding in was easy due to the large hole. Since it is so short, my head pops out the other side and I used it to go up and down the entire length of my penis. Since the out hole is soft and large too, I did not have any pain popping in and out of it. I could not feel the internal texture at all. I can safely say that I don't think I will ever be able to finish from this alone. It was okay to use but did not wow me at all. My hand could have done a better job to be honest. The reason I am giving it three stars is because it did fit fine and was not uncomfortable. It did not take away from masturbating at all. It kept my hands free of lube which was nice. Someone who is smaller in girth could probably feel the texture better since stretching it makes the texture disappear.
    • Easy to use
    • Not very stimulating

Care and Maintenance

Other than my earlier recommendation of using powder to maintain a non-sticky texture, you should also make sure this is completely dry before putting it away. I would flip it inside out to dry and then let the other side dry too. Cleaning was easy to do with warm water and soap since it is so short and stretchy. Don't let it touch other toys, it might melt. You can use any lube type.
    • Easy to clean
    • High maintenance

Packaging

The package is cardboard and just a bit larger than the sleeve itself. It has a hentai like picture of an Asian girl on the front and sides. The language is all in Japanese expect for one word that appears a few times -ENJOY. The back shows picks of the product. It is not discreet. Even though the words can't be read, the images say enough.

A small tube of what I assume is lube is included, but it is useless. It dries up right away.
    • Not discreet
    • Recyclable

Follow-up commentary
I have actually now decided that this is better than a hand. Using it just on the tip of my penis for short periods of time at the end of a hand session feels pretty great. The inside of the sleeve shows some wear after being used 3 or 4 more times. I'm surprised I got this much use out of it since I hadn't planned on it at all.

Nice review, I wonder if anyone can confirm the cyberskin versus TPE... I have a thing against cyberskin but would like to try this one out on my boyfriend since it is currently being offered free with purchase. Hmmm...

Awesome review, I just got this in the mail today. I too share you're love for many things japanese and am totally excited about the package. I hope I can get a few uses out of this with my boyfriend and I figured we could try this to see if he likes sleeves, he has never tried one. He is above average too and I was concerned that this would not work out for him but I have more hope for this product now. Thanks

Maybe submit a support ticket to ask them?

Sun it does work just fine for larger guys in girth, but leaves me wanting more in length.

  • Textured Sleeve Length?
    • So, there are six reviews of this thing floating around here at Eden. The sizes provided range from two to five and a half inches. The description says it's three and a half inches, but those are occasionally wrong also. Does anyone own one of these, preferably close to new, and can you please put it up to a ruler and tell me how long it actually is? Thanks! ~Pixie

      I don't have a ruler handy but I put the screen to "life size" for when you compare products and measured our brand new one by holding it right at that ruler. When I held the wider end at the top of the ruler it appeared to be 4" long. When I held the smaller end at the top of the ruler, it appeared to be 3 1/2" long. Go figure...I think that the wider end at the top of the ruler was the more accurate length as I got that same measurement twice.

      Not bad for a FREE item now if you place an order.
