Former porn star Saki Otsuka has reached a settlement with an adult toys maker over the sale of products featuring her.
Though seven years have now passed since Otsuka -- once a top performer in the JAV industry -- retired, "new works" continued to appear on the market and be sold without her consent. Otsuka had sued, seeking damages (and, of course, to set a precedent for other ex-performers).
