May 20, 2016
/ Tadashi Anahori
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 ...
Gravure idol Shoko Takasaki to make porn debut in May
April 6, 2016
/ Tadashi Anahori
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 ...
Did voice actress and singer Emi Niita appear in a Japanese porn film in 2008?
The 30-year-old cutie is best known for voicing Honoka Kosaka in Love Live! She also appeared in last year's Kohaku Uta Gassen.
But before she was famous she may have appeared in an AV from the series "Amateur Illustrated Encyclopedia". At least, that's what's being alleged by a tabloid and is currently causing explosions online.
We can't confirm the story. Her agency has denied it and threatened to sue. Fans are parsing the women in the film (which has jumped up the DMM adult rankings because of the scandal) ...
What seemed to be a one-off by a former SKE48 that proved such a hit it developed into a longer porn career, and Momona Kito (now performing under the name Yua Mikami) has morphed into a fully fledged AV star. Her new-found confidence and sass is obvious if you compare her rather timid first appearance last year with this year's releases.
Here are some stills from her latest porn release, which really show off Momona's breasts. Out April 1st, the setting is thrillingly domestic. The bathing scene looks seriously hot.
Currently Momona is releasing a new AV ...

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).

Does AV star Mei Matsumoto have a foreign boyfriend?
December 31, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
It seems that Japanese AV actress Mei Matsumoto isn't content with all the cocks she has during her day job. She also wants some in her private life.
Specifically, if a tweet is to be believed, she seems to want some interracial action.
She appears to be dating Philip Minoru Kimura, a K1 kickboxer born in 1993 in Brazil.
Judging by his name and looks, he has some Japanese blood in him. We wonder if it's his physique or Latin charm that Mei digs. Hey, we can kick butt ...

Porn actor Shimiken’s “poo curry” restaurant to close
December 18, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
All good things must come to an end. While we're not sure if this counts as a "good" thing, we are a little sad to report that one of the funnest stories of the year is reaching its conclusion.
Porn actor Shimiken (Ken Shimizu), who has bedded thousands of women over the course of his career, started a new enterprise earlier this year.
Nothing unusual in that -- except this one was a "poo curry" restaurant, serving fecal-like dishes in toilet-shaped bowls. Quite a concept!
Located in a residential district in Setagaya ward, Tokyo, Curry Shop Shimizu has plenty of unusual ...

December 16, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Maro (Maroka Uchiyama) was one of Ayumi Hamasaki's dancers. He and Hamasaki started dating while she was on the rebound from divorcing her husband Manuel Schwarz in 2012.
However, the fling lasted only until 2013, since when Maro became famous for being famous -- and sometimes appeared on TV talk shows to spill the beans on the breakup.
Clearly his career is going in another direction now since Maro has just made his porn debut. Here are some highlights.
Japan is the world's biggest producer of porn, though it suffers from a ...
