It's hardly a secret that many music idols, along with gravure idols, slip into porn after graduating from their idol job. While most fade quickly into obscurity once their management companies cut them loose, a few brave souls try to branch out in second careers in adult video, and an even smaller number are successful at it and last more than one or two releases.
Several members AKB48 and its sister groups have made prominent debuts in AV, most notably Momona Kito, and now comes an example from another idol group.
An ex-member of Aoyama Saint Hachamecha High School, Yume Narai, will ...
If you were upset by Sola Aoi's sudden marriage announcement, don't worry: you still have a chance to marry a Japanese AV idol.
Asuka Hoshino had a career between 2010 and 2014, and is now trying to build a post-AV career. Presumably things are not going too well for her, since she's now turning to her fans to pay her directly.
Still, she's offering something original: a marriage ceremony!
Yes, you can "marry" Asuka Hoshino just by paying a fee. She will participate in a fake ceremony that you and the 31-year-old former porn star will plan together with a genuine wedding planning ...
Evidently in response to the coercion scandals that have hit Japanese pornography recent, the Adult Video Human Rights Ethics Organization has proposed a new guideline for AV production and distribution companies allowing actresses to halt the sale of their films or use of footage of their videos after they have been on sale for five years.
The guideline will come into effect from April 1, 2018 -- not because it is April Fool's Day but because April marks the start of the new fiscal year in Japan. There is no government or state pressure in regards to the guideline, so it is unsure how many, ...
There comes a point in every Japanese porn star fan's life when he (or she) has to accept the facts of reality.
Their favorite adult video idol will, at some point, retire from the industry, most likely into obscurity. Or they get married (at least, they do the rare thing of announcing this publicly while still famous).
Such is the case with Sola Aoi, the immensely popular JAV star who enjoys remarkable fame overseas.
Sola (or Sora) has not made an original porn release since 2011 but is still adored by legions of men, especially in China. Now, sadly, there is a further obstacle between ...
Idol Miu Nakamura's adult video debut was one of the most exciting of 2017 and we have been looking forward to her second porn release for months.
It's finally here and our anticipation was not in vain. The slinky, flat-chested 26-year-old former idol -- no stranger to doing to full-frontal nude shoots even before she joined Muteki's roster of porn talent -- has now released a new AV from the label Moodyz. The 239-minute epic (MIDE00502, Saikourin) came out on New Year's Day, or a few days before for the digital version.
It features four sessions of nakadashi sex (apparently Miu's ...
Whatever happens to Japan's junior idols?
This is a controversial topic. Many find the idea of junior idols (or chidol) -- girls often as young as their tweens or even younger -- repellent and tantamount to encouraging pedophilia in the same way as lolicon.
However, it's worth remembering that many gravure idols start their careers in their late teens and are technically below the age of adulthood in Japan (20 years old). So it's not all about the specific genre of junior idols and things are very ambiguous when you start looking around.
After all, many music idols from groups like ...
Any self-respecting fan or consumer of Japanese adult video will know how important shame is: shame or insult (ryoujoku, ryojoku) fetish porn is huge. In the pantheon of Japanese porn, women are humiliated in all number of inventive ways, from being made to pee themselves (omorashi) to having their bodies turned into "public toilets" for anyone to use.
A common theme is the use of writing on the naked body, where women are "tagged" with graffiti insulting them or labeling them as sluts.
If this turns you or your partner on, there are ways to recreate the experience, such as the "shame ...
Whatever happens to all those legions of minor idols?
Some get married and settle down. Some drift into prostitution, hosting, or something in between. Some just get regular jobs.
Some try to reinvent themselves as sexier versions of their previous jobs, such as Aki Takajo and Ami Tomite, and Kana Kobayashi. Another recent example is former Kamen Rider actress Rin Asuka (not to be confused with AV idol Rin Asuka), who posed nude for some ravishing shots.
A few go one step further and make a clean break into AV, as we have seen from several notable debuts by former members of AKB48 ...
When former SKE48 idol Momona Kito decided to change her professional name to Yua Mikami and switch careers to adult video, her fans rejoiced -- and even more so when she swiftly rose to be one of the biggest porn stars in Japan.
You might think that rewarding them with hours of footage of her naked voluptuous body being fucked by countless guys was enough. No, the newly reborn and wildly successful Yua Mikami wants to give her fans even more. And you probably can't get a more personal service better than this.
Her latest release from S1 No.1 Style ostensibly recruits 20 actual otaku ...
As Japan's population ages and there are ever more people over sixty, one of the challenges for the AV industry is how to adjust for a changing demographic.
One of the results is the growth of porn aimed at seniors. Expect porn starring older men and jukujo to become a major proportion of the market in the near future. (A knock-on effect is also that more and more prostitution services are catering specifically to the older customer, and that a quarter of love hotel users are over 65.)
Unlike many other places, the porn industry has not suffered the precipitous decline in DVD sales and ...
