We all know and love the likes of Maria Ozawa.
But something like 95% of Japanese porn is populated not by stars but by so-called kikaku joyu, or "project actresses" -- these are the unsung heroines of an industry that products 20,000 titles a year.
In the same way that American porn has anonymous fluffers doing much of the dog's work, the kikaku joyu provide the meat for all the incredible JAV porn films that involve sometimes dozens or even hundreds of actresses. They will play the "regular girl" roles -- OL, nurse, student etc.
They are typically scouted on the streets or recruited ...
Kimaka Ichijo (一条綺美香) has just burst onto the Japanese porn scene with her very sexy debut feature for Soft on Demand at the ripe old age of forty-eight years.
The unmarried MILF-like beauty Ichijo applied to SOD and in the making of her virgin feature she was actually embracing the body of a man for the first time in three years.
Wow, she looks amazing. Check out her G-cup!
It's being released with a lot of fanfare, including signed copies and others with her used panties attached. But we reckon just the basic movie is MORE than enough entertainment.
She's firmly in the ...
In Japan toilets are very special places.
They can either be somewhere terrifying -- the old style of public lavatory resembles a kind of hole in the ground which you squat over -- or bewildering -- in particular, the hi-tech electronic ones with heated seats, dozens of buttons and even voices that talk to you.
But did you know they can also be places where sexy women reside, waiting for your every command?
The Fantasy Toilet series of Japanese adult films is one of the most original and strange settings we've encountered (and that's saying a lot since JAV porn is full of ...
The Magic Mirror Car (or "MM Go") is a great trope that pops up in many Japanese porn films.
It takes a truck with one side converted into a "magic mirror" (one-way glass) so you can see the world outside going by while all sorts of crazy things happen in the truck -- and on camera.
The kinkiness lies in the contrast between the nudity and sex and the totally normal life on the streets outside that goes on innocuously, oblivious to the movie being filmed meters away.
Originally the JAV titles using magic mirror moving studios implied that the people outside could see in like a window, ...
Japanese porn superstar Taka Kato (加藤鷹) has claimed in an interview that he hasn't spanked his monkey since he was 17!
Kato is known for having the "hand of God." He is able to bring women to tremulous and tremendous orgasms just with the aid of his finger. Sometimes he is credited with almost inventing the shiofuki squirting genre of adult video.
A JAV legend, Kato is now 49 but showing no signs of retiring soon and is nicknamed "the Goldfinger" for his uncanny touch. He is also responsible for one of the best Fairy vibrator attachments in history, a finger extension molded ...
Here's a round-up of some fun and funky hentai porn or otherwise just weird kinky Japanese adult movies...
Japan is a country that is rapidly aging. Is it any surprise that people want to watch folk their own age going at it? These adorable two are in their seventies! Watch out for Maria Ozawa when she gets on a bit.
Now, I've heard of toilet fetishes. Golden shower. Sex on the toilet. In the bathroom. The usual suspects. But sex WITH a toilet? This one was new even for me. Yes, it's the "human toilet" porno.
Us j-girls are famously hairy down there. But did you know we can ...
A new film Namae no nai Onnatachi (名前のない女たち, literally "The Girls With No Names", though the English title is Love & Loathing & Lulu & Ayano) is about young JAV porn stars in Tokyo, a subject of course close to our heart!
It's based on a nonfiction bestseller, a four-volume compilation of interviews on life and sex with kikaku porn actresses.
A kikaku joyu is a supporting actress hired for the day, whose face and/or name doesn't appear on film, as opposed to tantai, the starring models. The ratio of tantai to kikaku girls is something like 5% to 95%!
The ...
Just spotted this great pic recently.
The top stars of Japanese porn are all lined up just the way we want to see them. Which one is your favorite?!
I personally like Akiho Yoshizawa (吉沢明歩), down in the bottom left, the ...
This week we look at AV idol Natsuki Abe (安倍なつき).
1981-born Natsuki Abe is a wonderfully full-chested JAV star, and what a star she is! She made her debut ten years ago, a relative lifetime in porn terms! In fact, now no one seems to know if she is still working in the industry or not. Her last major release was in 2006, it seems. At any rate, we have these exquisite images with which we can savor Natsuki's ...
