Japanese porn star Yuki Takeuchi delays retirement after scam

In January, the Japanese porn star Yuki Takeuchi had announced that she would retire from the adult video industry at the end of this year, but she has now said that she will delay her retirement by a further year.

Many fans had hoped she would do this because she wanted to keep making JAV productions due to audience demand, and while that may be true in part, Takeuchi recently revealed the real reason behind the extra 12 months.

Takeuchi was the victim of a financial scam that saw her lose her savings, she shared on an episode of Abema’s Hyena of Love 4 (the same show on which ex-gravure idol Yuka Kosaka recently spilled secrets about the casting couch).

On the show, the 30-year-old explained that she would not be retiring on December 31 as planned. She was deceived by someone calling her and claiming to be the police.

The called said that an arrest warrant had been issued.

She continued, sharing the shocking truth of how her personal information was leaked and she lost all her assets. “Somehow, my real name, phone number, and previous home address were revealed, and all of my savings were taken.”

Takeuchi remains sanguine. “It would be frustrating to quit without any money, so I decided to make some money first and then quit, and that’s why I’m continuing!”

While we are sad to hear she was the victim of a scammer, we’re pleased that we will get to enjoy many more releases for another year.

Takeuchi made her porn debut with the production company Premium. In 2021, she released a photo book.
