Former SKE48 idol Momona Kito, who made a sensational porn debut last year under the name Yua Mikami, has picked up prize at the DMM.R18 Adult Awards 2016.
Kito went from being a minor music idol in the AKB48 spin-off group to an AV star in just one release. Muteki -- a porn studio that specializes in idols, actors and celebrities making the switch from mainstream entertainment to AV -- then persuaded her to launch a full career in the adult industry and she quickly followed up with further releases.
Adored for her immaculate bust, Kito/Mikami picked up the award for best ...
Following a sex scandal (alleged prostitution!), the gravure idol Shoko Takasaki has made her porn debut on the Muteki AV label, which specializes in porn featuring former idols and actors.
Ahead of her debut as "Shoko Takahashi" (changing her names for legal reasons after she left her previous agency), our voluptuous lady posed semi-nude for some ravishing shots...
Though there was some confusion over the rumors of Takasaki's switch from gravure to porn, the naysayers have been proved wrong and these images reveal what a delight the results appear to be...
Behold some initial ...
Known for her perfect body and gorgeous G-cup bust, Shoko Takasaki was until late last year one of the top rising gravure idols in Japan and a potential star in the general entertainment industry.
But the gravure world is a fickle one and idols are sometimes more desperate for money than you might think, plus quickly learn that their looks and bodies are their top advantage in a ruthless industry where management expects to sleep with new talent.
In September, images surfaced that seemed to show her engaging in enjo kosai (compensated dating, a euphemism for prostitution), causing her to ...
Former SKE48 idol Momona Kito had such a hit with her first AV release that she was persuaded to make a full career out of it, releasing more films in 2016.
The one-off release on the Muteki label generated a lot of excitement last year and also placed Kito (performing under the name Yua Mikami) firmly in the growing list of AKB and sister group members who had "graduated" onto careers in Japanese porn, which given the dark side of the idol industry (mafia involvement, managers grooming idols for sex) is not such a leap in a sense.
Momona Kito/Yua Mikami has now posed for some nice hair ...
This is a working list of idols from AKB48 or sister groups like SKE48 who have graduated onto second careers in nude modeling and/or adult video (AV).
There are rumored to be others but these are what we know of. Share if there are others!
Momona Kito
The most high-profile recent graduate into the porn industry, Momona Kito starred in an ostensibly one-off porn release by Muteki as Yua Mikami. It was such a hit, she has since decided to do more and make a whole career of it.

Rina Nakanishi was the pioneer, laying the ground for the other idols who have followed in her ...
Set for release on February 1st, 2016, "Climax x No.4" is the third Japanese porn release by former SKE48 idol Momona Kito.
Originally she appeared in a one-off film, "Princess Peach", by AV label Muteki in 2015 under the new name Yua Mikami, which became the most sensational debut of the year.
It was such a hit they managed to persuade her to do more.
Here are some of the first pictures.
A second film, "Kaikan" (Ecstasy), is released on New Year's ...

The completionist side to our personality just wants to post this, even though it's not new.
What with all the fuss earlier this year of the porn debut of Momona Kito as Yua Mikami, we want to continue our exploration of this theme: the afterlife of Japan's "respectable" idols.
Remember AKB48's Rumi Yonezawa?
Well, since her departure from the group in 2012, it seems her career hit hard times. So many idols are processed through the well-grease machinery of the industry that there will inevitably be casualties that fall by the wayside.
And given the open secret that idols ...
After a minor career as an actress and model, Chiharu Komatsu did a fantastic hair nude shoot in 1998. She went nude again in 2007.
Before that she got pregnant, married, and divorced in fairly quick succession. (Her child died soon after being born.) In 2008, she gave birth to a son, though remains unmarried.
Since then she made a comeback as a jukujo adult video star in 2011. In a weird twist, she initially denied her adult career shift on her blog at the end of 2010. Perhaps there was a last-minute contractual issue with MUTEKI.
Regardless, "Kokuhaku" (Confession) came out in 2011 ...
We've already been posting about former SKE48 idol Momona Kito's porn debut in "Princess Peach", released on the Muteki label. As usual, the idol has adopted a new name (Yua Mikami) to match her new career.
If you don't have the wherewithal to find Momona's all-out JAV inauguration online, here is a glorious GIF to whet your appetite.
Clearly Momona Kito's time in SKE48, where we are sure she got plenty of practice serving the sexual needs of her older male management bods, served her well!
