We know this is going to be a divisive release -- and that's why we're blogging about it. Over at Kanojo Toys, they have a JAV porn DVD for sale called "Rina-chan Best". "Rina-chan Best" is a long 480-minute double-disc fetish DVD porn set for the audiences who love eight-hour paipan schoolgirl fantasies. And that's quite a big audience in Japan, it seems. Rina is a sweet little girl who measures a mere 147 cm (4.8 ft) in height. Like small girls with flat chests? She's the one for you. (After all, there's no shortage of them in Japan.) In the series of films in this set Rina is put ...

Last night in the pouring rain saw the Japan Adult Awards held in Tokyo. The annual prizes are the Japanese porn industry's chance to pat itself on the back and rewards its top actresses with trinkets for their efforts over the past year. Last year's winners include Haruki Sato for best actress and Akari Hoshino in the jukujo category. The much-coveted Best Actress prize was taken home by Yui Hatano, who made her debut way back in 2008. While we were rooting for Mei Hayama in the Best Newcomer Award, she sadly lost out to Marina Shirashi (below left). The jukujo award was won ...

"A hard day’s grind for porn’s professionals," as the newspaper has it. The Japan Times has posted a nice, long article about shooting a Japanese porn film. As bloggers who have experienced some Japanese porn shoots ourselves, we were particularly interested in the article. It starts with a factoid we have long boasted of... Japan comes in a distant second in per-capita spending ($157 in 2011) on pornography after voracious South Korea ($527), but when it comes to comparing the sizes of the countries’ homegrown porn industries, there’s no contest. So prominent is Japanese ...

We've long been a fan of Yoko Kamon. The one-time '90s minor actress (probably most notably she appeared in Suicide Circle) then moved into slightly mature idol fame before securing many an adult admirer with her willingness to strip for "hair nude" (full frontal) shoots and appear in softcore porn films. Now, like another aging but still hot lady like Chiharu Komatsu, she has made the decision to release a porn film. This career move was hardly a surprise, given her increasing appearances in naked photo shoots and sex scenes. The adult video release is called Deai (Encounter) and ...

Shijonawate City in Osaka prefecture has punished two twenty-year-old firefighters with a six-month suspension. What did they do wrong? They appeared in a porn film. Firefighters in Japan have a reputation for playing the field, earning good money and spending it on girls. These two clearly wanted to combine the two by getting some extra cash for making an appearance in an adult flick. Apparently they were approached at Suma beach near Kobe in August last year by a scout. "You've got good bodies. Would you let us film you screwing some girls?" They then went to a nearby condo and got ...

We love Tsubomi. The cute JAV star, recently pregnant, has won legions of fans in Japan and rightfully so. A documentary on the new Vice Japan channel looks at Tsubomi. It's in Japanese only but turn on the closed captions for English subtitles. A highlight is at the start when she says she thinks Japanese people are more secretive when it comes to sex. It doesn't go into any context or explore anything properly, just following Tsubomi around Akihabara as she looks at costumes and meets a few fans. There are some short clips from movie shoots. There is quite a funny ...

It pays to be careless sometimes, it seems. For a Japanese porn star, despite all those nakadashi (creampie) scenes, you would think that getting pregnant was the thing they fear most. It signals if not the end of their career, at least a large blimp where they cannot work. But not if you are as cute as the cosplayer JAV porn star Tsubomi, whose latest film is simply called "Tsubomi Pregnant." We think the main point of the film is thus pretty obvious. Of course, there are lots of pregnant porn films already and even pregnant women sex shops for people with lactating breasts ...

Never, never let it be said that pornography isn't cultural. Far from it. JAV is high art! We've known this for years and now there can be no denying it with the Naked Sex Art Museum, which we have been "visiting" recently. The Soft on Demand (SOD) title features Anri Suzuki, Ryo Akanishi, Satsuki Kirishima and Reira Serikawa in a series of scenes that recreate famous paintings... in the most artistic way possible. The cover of course is Sandro Botticelli's Venus. Another major obvious one is Manet's "The Luncheon on the Grass". The original painting in itself ...

We've been "investigating" another fab genre of Japanese pornography a lot recently. Homeless porn. Back in 2011 we saw our first title, where a young J-girl is homeless in L.A. and has to sleep with tramps to get a place to stay. But there are many, many more. Some take the common "girl-in-peril" motif and have the young lady being forced to undergo something that is "dirty" or humiliating, or an incredible challenge. Often the sex is semi-public, watched by all the other homeless guys in the community. In general, this "humiliation" style is a frequent style in many Japanese JAV ...

It's no secret that there's a lot of cum in Japanese porn. From the ubiquitous bukkake face shot to whole "drinking semen" epics, Japanese guys like their spunk on the ladies. Well, Japanese porn studio RADIX decided to recruit the semen of fans for JAV star Uta Kohaku's next film. A pretty neat way not only to generate publicity and interest in the upcoming title -- but also save on expenses! (Most JAV use bukkake lotion and cream when their team's supplies run low after a long day's, ahem, shoot.) The filming took place yesterday and so this was when Uta got to see ...
