We love it when a plan comes together.
So many adult video debuts go unnoticed and the lady struggles to the end of her short contract without fanfare, before, if she's lucky, switching agency and professional name to try again under a new alias, or leaving the industry. Some, such as Noa Takeuchi recently, even disappear entirely.
A few, however, attract amazing buzz from the start. This often includes celebrities making much-trumpeted moves into porn, such as Miu Nakamura, Miyako Akane, and Mero Imai. But sometimes there are some beauties who get everyone excited
One such is Suzu Honjo, ...
Last week we blogged about the upcoming adult video debut of former Aoyama Saint Hachamecha High School idol Yume Narai, who will release her first porn title through Soft on Demand in March as Kia Aoyama.
As is typical in these well-publicized debuts, Aoyama/Narai has posed for a full-frontal (known in Japan as a "hair nude") photo shoot -- and the results are so good we just had to share them with readers.
With her idol group now defunct, the adorably cute yet shapely Aoyama/Narai is going all out for her hotly anticipated entry into the porn industry, perhaps hoping to emulate the ...
Recently debuted adult video star Noa Takeuchi disappears overnight

The Japanese Interwebs is abuzz with speculation about the mysterious disappearance of up-and-coming adult video star Noa Takeuchi, who made her debut on Soft on Demand in September last year.
After releasing seven (by our count) videos, the D-cup "Lolita"-style performer has suddenly disappeared and her next release scheduled for February 25 abruptly canceled. Of course, women who make one-off debuts are not unusual, while the road to AV stardom is lined with the corpses of women who released a couple of videos but found no following.
But this is different. Takeuchi's videos have really ...
Former Aoyama Saint Hachamecha High School idol Yume Narai makes porn debut for Soft on Demand

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 ...
Magic Mirror Truck one-way glass porn vehicle on display in Shibuya during Halloween street party
November 2, 2016

This year, in addition to crazy numbers of people in cosplay on the streets, Shibuya also hosted trash cans that spoke to you in porn stars' voices when you filled them up with your garbage.
And that wasn't the only porn-themed attraction in Shibuya over the Halloween weekend.
Regular viewers of Japanese AV will be familiar with the "magic mirror truck" series that features a vehicle installed with a one-way glass wall. It travels around the city, looking out at unsuspecting citizens on the streets while all manner of sexual antics take place inside.
Porn industry giant Soft on ...
Soft on Demand helps clean up Halloween in Shibuya with Adult Trash Boxes, loaded with porn star voices
October 31, 2016

Over the weekend, Halloween was even more of a crazy street party than last year. Though rain made Friday a wash-out, Saturday saw Shibuya transform into a veritable carnival of cosplay and costumes, almost all of which seemed to have nothing to do with Halloween in the traditional sense and more to do with looking wild or sexy. And there's nought wrong with that, my friends.
All these thousands of people assembling in Shibuya for one night only does create one annoying byproduct, though: trash, and lots of it.
To help deal with the problem, AV retailer and producer Soft on Demand (SOD) ...
Soft on Demand and Japanese porn stars save the planet

The AV industry in Japan is not all take, take, take. It likes to give back, too.
The "boob aid" annual event is one of the best examples of this, in which porn stars let their breasts be groped by ordinary members of the public in order to raise money for AIDS charities.
Now Soft on Demand and Japanese porn stars have come together (no pun) to help save the planet.
The Do Eco website looks like a porn video streaming site, but don't be fooled. While it's not fully safe for work, there's no sex or nudity. And it's all for a good cause.
It features nine AV performers, including ...
Take three male virgins.
Put them in a room with three top Japanese porn stars.
And you have the best group date ever.
That's just what Soft on Demand did a little while ago.
The virgins initially wore masks to protect their identities from the camera, though one of the participants was apparently 55 years old so consigned himself just to donning shades.
The three lovely ladies were: Mana Sakura (21 years old), Iori Kogawa (22 years old), and China Matsuoka (20 years old).
What would you talk about if you had a dinner date with these three ...
Soft on Demand gives out free BraFile “bust checker” folder to analyze Japanese girls’ breasts

When out and around the city we love to take in the eye candy. After all, Tokyo is one heck of a candy store. Our favorite area is Omotesando/Aoyama for the chic ladies, and Shibuya for the sluttier girls. Don't miss places like Shimokitazawa or west Tokyo for the grungy students too.
This has been happening throughout history.
Where do we look? Well, of course the face and the hair, as well as her clothes and fashion.
Most Japanese ladies don't have much in the way of tits and ass, though we will still definitely check out their assets.
Sometimes there are ...
No more porn only for men: Porn for women getting big in Japan
September 11, 2014
/ Tadashi Anahori
Japan may well have the largest porn industry in the world and a vibrant sex toys market, but so far it has almost entirely been for the male consumer. Now porn for women is finally catching on in Japan.
Actually part of this is thanks to magazine Anan, which has run regular sex-themed special editions that have generated publicity and mainstream acceptance for fashion-minded women reading about sex. A recent August sex issue featured a freebie DVD from Soft on Demand's Silk Labo porn-for-women brand.
Soft on Demand has also placed women employees in senior positions and started a ...
