Anal toys are probably the category first-time buyers feel most anxious about, and for good reason: unlike other toys, there’s no natural lubrication, so getting the choice and technique wrong can lead to pain or injury. Get the basics right, though, and it’s a genuinely safe category to explore. Here’s what beginners need to know.
4 things to check before you buy
A flared base is non-negotiable. Because of how the body works, anything inserted without a wide flared base at the end risks becoming lodged. This is a safety requirement, not a comfort preference — treat it as the single most important spec.
Go smaller than you think. Choosing something too thick for a first attempt is the single most common mistake. Start with a slim stick-style toy (roughly finger-width, around 2cm diameter) and only size up once that feels comfortable.
Choose soft silicone or elastomer. Hard plastic or glass is for more experienced users. Soft, body-safe material that warms to skin temperature puts far less strain on delicate tissue. Check for a smooth surface with no seams or rough edges.
Anal-specific lubricant is mandatory. There’s no natural lubrication in this area, so using a toy without lube risks tissue damage. Use a thicker, slower-drying formula made specifically for anal use rather than a standard water-based lube — and use more than feels necessary.
Before you start
Leave a few hours after eating, and shower beforehand. Relax and breathe out slowly during insertion. If you feel any pain, stop — “push through the discomfort” is the wrong mindset here. Afterward, clean the toy thoroughly with a mild cleanser and let it dry completely before storing.
3 recommended picks
Well-reviewed, beginner-friendly items from FANZA’s mail-order store (prices and ratings as of writing).
1. Puni Anal Narrow Stick
¥1,320 — ★4.20 (5 reviews)
A slim, softly-yielding stick as the name suggests, with a gradually tapering shape that lets you ease into the sensation. A solid, wide flared base makes this a genuinely easy first toy.
2. ANAL ANCHOR
¥1,333 — ★4.67 (3 reviews)
A plug-style toy from Magic Eyes. True to its name, the anchor shape stays securely in place. A good next step once you’re comfortable with a stick, for anyone who wants to wear it for a while.
3. Pepe Special Back Door 200ml
¥792 — ★4.00 (7 reviews)
The anal-specific version of the well-known Pepe lubricant line. Thicker and slower to dry, which cuts down on how often you need to reapply during longer sessions. Buy this alongside your first toy, not after.
Bottom line
Three conditions matter most: a flared base, a slim starting size, and soft material — plus anal-specific lubricant every time. Don’t rush to a bigger size; let your body’s response set the pace. Clean and dry thoroughly after every use.
