Our piece on R18's demise: https://www.zenra.net/blog/breaking-news-r18-permanently-closing

Seriously, where were all these actresses tweeting about the new law a few months ago when it was still working its way through the Diet? I'm happy they are doing it now, but too little too late. Finally when it may impact scheduling and their pay, they start talking. Credit to Sakura...

I don't think having her porn on legit platforms hurt AiU from getting a YT. I think she delisted just for wanting more control of her image (and to hell with the studios who spent hundreds of thousands getting her to where she is today, apparently).

The elephant in the room is DMM taking a whopping 70% cut on average that this law will do nothing to change. Studios pay as much as they're able to. They're not making bank. Agencies take around 50% which is a big cut of actress pay, but they do take care of almost every single need of the...

There already are a multitude of laws in Japan protecting worker rights. This goes above and beyond and pretty much makes any person who appears in front of the camera a god. As others have noted, if one performer on a whim can tank a title, it would be increasingly risky to hire new faces...

Honestly, I see the industry retreating some from panic mode in the not too distant future. Delistings still are quite rare and this law probably won't change things. It's more likely than not it will not be much enforced. Japan won't become like Korea because there is no fundemanetal...

twenie: scouting for JAV talent almost never happens anymore. Majority of those you see applied on their own.

Correct, the law is pretty much useless for what it is actually trying to do because it is looking to solve a problem that doesn't exist.

branbran726, per giving her a 'pill', it could have been staged ala many other things in JAV.

This law will not affect FC2 shooting in any way other than INCREASING the amount of women doing non-mainstream JAV.

I will eat a metaphorical shoe if articles (?) 17-19 are carried out in any meaningful, noticeable way across the entire country (let alone Tokyo). My belief at the moment is this law will cause some short term issues with mainstream JAV, but will be nearly forgotten by the powers that be...

The pickup one RADIX wrote was a joke hence the w at the end.

SL has a really popping thread on this.

I wish. They shoot great content, but last time I was a subscriber you couldn't even download individual images, but only entire image sets. Very annoying if you just want a few images and not the whole thing. Also, the library rotation for older content is way too restrictive. Simply giving...

Poorly unless it's something with crystal clear audio and mainly a one-on-one affair (think VR).
