/ Tadashi Anahori
The much-younger Japanese wife of a wealthy self-proclaimed "Don Juan," who died under mysterious circumstances in 2018, has finally been arrested.
Saki Sudo (須藤早貴) (25) was detained this week by police over the death of her husband, Kosuke Nozaki, who was famed for his wealth and how he had used it to bed thousands of women.
Nozaki was 77 when he died at his sumptuous property in Wakayama, while Sudo was 22. They had reportedly met by chance at Haneda Airport and quickly married.
It is alleged that she killed him with a meth overdose to get his fortune. She was apparently more ...

In our continuing survey of what gradols and porn stars do after leaving their jobs, we now have the example of one of the most prominent JAV performers of recent years: Ai Uehara.
Having just won a high-profile diversity award, Ai is wasting no time in launching the next stage in her working life.
She has just started a crowdfunding campaign, aire (pronounced "eye re"), for a new of health and beauty supplement brand called AminoR-20+Zn. As the name suggests, the supplement contains zinc and 20 types of amino acids. The project is produced by Ai in partnership with a corporation, ...
Another Japanese pop idol makes her porn debut
April 15, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
Mayuko Ito (伊藤真友子), a former member of the idol group Yumeoi Shoujo (元ユメオイ少女), is making her porn debut, joining the ranks swelled by numerous singers and idols over the years.
As is often the case, Ito is making this career shift under a new professional name -- in this case, Himari Ayase (綾瀬ひまり).
Yumeoi Shoujo is a struggling pop group in a competitive world, launching in 2016 and shedding most of its members in 2019, including Mayuko Ito. It still has one official member but its chances of gaining a larger following are likely behind ...
Former top adult video star Ai Uehara is about to kick off her second career with a crowdfunding campaign later this month. The details are still a little slim, though it seems to involve launching her own photography brand. We hope to report more next week.
In the meantime, Ai has been in the news for another reason: she won the Miss iD 2021 award.
The 28-year-old was selected from 2,676 candidates and 194 finalists for the prize, which is now in its ninth year.
The finalists had to attend interviews to win over the the judges. Following auditions held online last August, the event to ...
Here are the first preview images of Ruu Yumemi’s porn debut
March 30, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
We promised. We delivered.
After blogging the exciting news that former gravure idol Ruu Yumemi is to make her adult video debut following a sex tape scandal, we then shared the full-frontal nude photos she did to promote the porn release.
And now, finally, we have some preview images to enjoy before the video (MIDE-894) comes out on April 13 from Moodyz.
From the previews, the porn seems to have some fine if unspectacular action. Inevitably, the director has chosen to make a lot out of her breasts, since Ruu Yumemi's I-cup bust is probably her best and most striking asset. (No prize for ...

/ Tadashi Anahori
Ahead of her much-anticipated porn debut, busty and curvy former gravure idol Ruu Yumemi has now done a full nude shoot.
After her gradol career stuttered following a sex tape leak scandal, Ruu Yumemi turned to Moodyz and adult video for work. We are among the many looking forward to seeing the results.
As reported by this blog recently, Yumemi's first porn release (MIDE-894) is a 150-minute epic and comes out on April 13. We hope to provide some preview images when they become available.
Known for her incredible I-cup bust and curves, Yumemi debuted in gravure in 2019. She is keeping the ...
I-cup gravure idol Ruu Yumemi to make porn debut after sex tape scandal
March 16, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
The serried ranks of adult video are filled with new debuts, most of which disappear without much trace. Rarer are the high-profile gradols (gravure idols) and music idols who make the crossover. (There are more common porn debuts by lesser-known idols whose names are unlikely to raise an eyebrow.)
The most successful example of late has been Kaoru Yasui, whose new career is picking up some steam.
Now comes the porn debut of Ruu Yumemi (夢見るぅ), an I-cup busty gradol, with Moodyz.
Interestingly, she is doing it under her original geimei (performer name) -- not adopting a new one for ...
This is what porn star Minami Aizawa looked like in school and college
March 15, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
Minami Aizawa (相沢みなみ) is one of the most popular porn stars in Japan, having releasing dozens of AV titles and inspired many onaholes, lubes, and other adult toys.
After spending her early childhood living in America, the 24-year-old D-cup stunner went to school in Japan and made her debut in 2016. We know what she looks like now.
But what about a few years ago?
On the YouTube channel of Japanese comedian Egashira 2:50, Aizawa was recently interviewed and shared photos from when she was an elementary school student.
The video went online about a week ago and already ...
Recent porn debutant Kaoru Yasui to continue JAV career with release from S1 No. 1 Style
March 10, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
The biggest porn debut of the year so far, Kaoru Yasui's first release will thankfully not be a one-off.
Yasui made a splash with her adult video debut in February via Muteki, which specializes in crossover debuts. A former gravure idol and known for her large H-cup breasts, Yasui will continue her porn career with further releases from another studio, S1 No. 1 Style, one of the biggest names in JAV. (Muteki and S1 No. 1 Style are technically part of the same corporate group -- most things in the JAV industry are interconnected!)
Coming in at an impressive 170 minutes, Kaoru's next ...
Top porn star Yua Mikami launches apparel brand
March 5, 2021
/ Tadashi Anahori
Yua Mikami, one of the top porn stars, has launched her own apparel brand.
Though there are a few notable cases of porn stars forging interesting second careers after they leave the adult industry, it is relatively rare for actresses to maintain a successful second job while still acting in porn releases (though many porn stars do make occasional appearances in movies and TV series, almost always in "sexy" roles).
Mikami is one of the most prominent examples of an idol switching from a more mainstream area (in her case, as a music idol with SKE48) to porn, and not losing steam after just a ...
