But he wondered if the proprietors of the Makuhari Messe in Chiba  and industry insiders would be willing to allow the trade to come out into  the open. \u003cbr/\u003eOrganise, Hideki Sugishita says he was inspired by adult themed expositions in the U.S. and Europe. \u003cbr/\u003eThe event at times took on the form of a cheerleading competition with rival Japanese adult film stars joining on stage for impromptu dance celebrations as thousands of visitors mulled over everything from sex dolls to  masturbation machines.  \u003cbr/\u003eSaleswoman, Kaoru Ogihara says the event highlights that sex is healthy and sexual desire is normal. \u003cbr/\u003eAsami Fujino sells sex aids.

She says the japanese adult industry is very different from the American industry but adds that Japan is an important fan base for her.\u003cbr/\u003eVistors to the expo were impressed.   One man, Heburu says he has seen most of the products on display on the internet. He adds that it is good to be able to see them for real. \u003cbr/\u003eCampaign model, Manami, says she didn't expect the event to be so exciting. \u003cbr/\u003eHideki Sugishita hopes to set up a
