    I'm newbie here! And I'm not Japanese! Can I asked you guy some question

    1/ What is IV stand for? Why do they have naked pictures or vids but they cover their tits and in front of their butt? Why don't they show them totally?

    Briefly (and perhaps incorrectly);

    1) IV stands for Image Video (so says ryuuga). Nude IV is a whole different category

    2) AV (Adult Video) is again a whole different category containing sexual activity.

    3) Each member will give you a different answer since we all have different tastes.

    1) yea, agree, should be Image Video... IV not necessary shows nudity all the time...

    2) IV is not AV...

    3) er, yea, well, my top IV would always be Tada Mizuho's...

    Late reply sorry, just saw the thread :p

    IV = Idol Video
    AV = Adult Video

    At least that's how I understand it

    IV means Image Video

    another term, worth mentioning would be "Chaku-ero" [着エロ], which means "clothed erotica".

    the best way, to gather understanding about certain styles & ways, regarding jpn erotica, would be to read into the japanese censorship laws*. Nude IV (not explicit, no genitals shown*.) is often referred as Hair Nude [ヘアヌード] in japan.

    For people who may need some proofs or sources on this, you can try to find Ayay Fujimoto AV debut.

    At the beginning, the crew asked her did she do a lot of Image Videos (yes, they mentioned the term in english).

    So we got the answer directly from the JAV which came from Japan itself. There's no other proof that better than this.:tea:
