Like gravure idols, a lot of emphasis with adult video idols falls inevitably on the size of their breasts. In other words, do they have big tits? Let's be honest, though, a lot of the breasts we see in JAV are not fully natural.
Big tits are great -- and surely the main reason that L-cup gravure idol Yu Tano quickly transitioned from gravure to porn -- but what about the butt?
What are some current AV stars with nice, curvy asses?
It's a question we often mull and, in lieu of a proper ranking, we came up with some suggestions.

On Monday, we wrote about the upcoming porn debut of L-cup gravure idol Yu Tano, and it got a stronger-than-expected reaction from readers.
Well, if you liked the initial news, you're going to love the first preview pics of the 20-year-old's debut AV, which show off her naked body -- and especially those amazing bakunyu tits.
Coming out from top studio S1 No. 1 Style, the release date is now confirmed as June 7 for streaming. The AV is 154 minutes and the code is SONE00221, so search for it next month if you want to check it out. And anyone with a pulse will surely want to.
Her knockers ...
She only made her gravure debut in January, but busty idol Yu Tano (田野憂) has already made the switch to adult video.
The 20-year-old newbie with L-cup breasts will make her porn debut with S1 No. 1 Style, much like gradol Chika Yuki did last autumn.
Details are still slim about the release -- not least, when it will come out -- but Yu Tano made the announcement on social media last week and it has been confirmed by S1.
The announcement has sent her digital photo book shooting to the stop of the charts.
If you are into bakunyu mega-busty AV performers like Hitomi Tanaka, then ...
We wrote earlier in the year about the K-XF Adult Festival, planned to take place in April in Suwon, South Korea.
Along with introducing the event -- in essence, a showcase of Japanese porn stars -- we also touched on the opposition it had ignited in the country from civic groups, where religious sentiment is stronger than Japan and porn is prohibited. As later became apparent, that was only the start of the event's troubles.
The organizer faced an uphill struggle. Because it was an adult-only event, customers had to show ID both to purchase tickets and enter the venue.
Controversy then ...
The 25th edition of Japan's largest fetish event, FetiFes, took place on April 28. Certain household responsibilities prevented the Tokyo Kinky team from attending, so we were pleased to find the festival had generously published a huge gallery of pictures from the event (available on the festival website along with galleries from past editions).
All the images are taken by officially approved photographers (who are are credited on the gallery page images if you want to know who they are).
Unfortunately, they are just a gallery, without captions, so it is hard for us to provide much ...
In early March, we reported on the exciting news that former AKB48 idol and nude model Satomi Kaneko was to make her porn debut as Kiho Kanematsu, after she had supposedly retired in 2023.
We can now share the first preview images from her debut, which comes out from Muteki, a specialist is such crossovers.
The 34-year-old's first AV, the 176-minute 18Gold (TEK00099), was released on digital formats on April 2 .
We have yet to see the AV. If you've caught it already, please let us know your assessment of the quality. From the previews, it looks quite conventional, though Kaneko/Kanematsu's ...
Porn star Nanami Ogura (小倉七海) may still be just 21 years old but has already amassed a prodigious output of releases since making her debut with S1 No. 1 Style in September 2021, including multiple bestselling AVs as well as two print photo books and several digital ones.
But that all seemed like a flash in the pan when she suddenly announced her retirement in October 2022, leading some to speculate it was due to the constraints placed on the JAV industry since the introduction of new porn legislation.
Thankfully, Ogura's retirement didn't last and she was soon back, under a ...
South Korea's K-XF Adult Festival returns in 2024, following the event's inaugural edition last December in Gwangmyeong.
In fact, the first was such a hit that K-XF is set to happen three times this year (April, August, and December). It looks like the Taiwan Red Expo has some serious competition!
The first and largest event of its kind in Korea, KXF is a self-professed and unashamed "festival obsessed with sex and fashion."
Held in Suwon on April 20 and 21, K-XF will feature various exhibitor booths for adult toys and other items, but the real highlights are the appearances of top ...
The Japanese porn industry is incredibly prolific and its output is fueled in part by parody releases: adult video productions that operate at a kind of meta level, inspired by a recent incident, social trend, or something from popular culture.
Sometimes, since parody occupies an ambiguous place under the rubric of Japanese law, this can get the producers into trouble. The recent AV release based on the DJ Soda groping incident was canceled prior to release, possibly due to the social media backlash or perhaps out of fears of legal repercussions (at a time when things are difficult for the ...
The wheels of the Japanese adult video juggernaut trundle on, demanding fresh material, new performers, and novel inspiration.
As frequently noted on these digital pages, JAV often turns to parody to sustain itself, resulting in a kind of meta industry that is highly topical and self-aware.
The DJ Soda groping incident at a music festival last summer, in which the star was touched by several male and female members of the audience, was a big scandal, though ultimately the Korean performer has overcome the negativity and cemented her fandom in Japan with a debut photo book and cover shoot ...
