JAV VR: News, comments about releases, recommendations, hardware

As we are nearing the halfway point for the year, I am curious what 2026 video stands out for all of you.

I don't have a favorite movie this year. For me, it's the worst year out of the last 3 or 4. 99% of VRs have technical issues (no immersion) or just don't match my tastes (sex with clothes on, absurd fetishes and ridiculous costumes, f***rced sex, a lack of positions I like...). On top of all that, in 2026 there’s new problem: 60- or 70-minute movies that are missing positions that used to always be there, or 3-minutes positions that don’t give you time to enjoy them.

I’ve liked a few, but only because they’re the debut of a very pretty actress and they feature the positions I like; as movies, though, they have a lot of limitations.
Like Chewbaka, I kneel before the beauty of Inoue Momo in MDVR-419, and also of Mashiro Sana in MDVR-415.

They’re way too beautiful and perfect for porn:

I can't understand why, when you can have incredible, life-size girls in 3D just 15 centimeters from your face, people still prefer 2D.

Unfortunately, as VRs, there are some things that are hard to understand. You have to sit through five minutes of the actor’s hands groping Momo’s breasts, but they won’t let you suck on her incredible nipples—one of the pleasures of VR. Almost no one brings the nipples close to the camera anymore; there’s a fear of putting the camera up close in 2026, which is the essence of VR.

The Kawaii movie with Ito Mayuki has restored my faith in VR, because in 2026 there aren’t movies like this one—three hours long, with conversation scenes, scenes of the actress doing fun or quirky things, and immersive sex in every position… But I already have a lot of Mayuki’s movies, and it doesn’t have the novelty of a debut.

SOD gave me a mirage—three VRs featuring their exclusive stars. Intimate, highly immersive, premium VR: 3DSVR-1947, 3DSVR-1871, 3DSVR-1933:

Unfortunately, that’s all it was—a mirage. Then they went back to their ridiculous fetishes, f***rced sex, and non-immersive VR.

From Crystal, I liked a couple of titles for the same reason: debutantes I like, in the positions I like, but average movies:

CRVR-408

I’d like to see more with Misaki Oto.
S1 and Moodyz still haven't released any major films in 2026, Ito Mayuki's style, and Idea Pocket is defunct—the worst year in its history.

Happy to see Hibiki Ren make her return to VR. She's really sexy with a slender (but not anorexic) body with perky breasts, and is a solid performer too. Yet she has only made a handful of VRs and than dropped off. The last one was back on 2024 which was a duo with Shinomiya Yuri and it was really hot if you like cosplay.

Its one helluva comeback too. She's had 4 releases in quick succession recently and they're all directed by Genius Knee.

She has another 2 coming up with Unfinished. No longer with Genius but its not by Zampa either so that's cool.

She's a very pretty girl, and although she's thin, it's a natural thinness—not the result of extreme diets. I'm looking forward to watching a VR of hers without costumes, oils, or artificial sweat.
 
Following up on what Chewbaka and I talked about earlier regarding the (non-existent) lesbian scenes in VR.
HUNVR-211 came out this week, and it’s being advertised as a movie with lesbian scenes. They should really sell this movie with a free pair of binoculars...

First of all, calling a little kiss and some gentle nipple licking “lesbian scenes” is highly debatable. But the real problem is how they’re filmed. 90% of the time, the lesbian scene takes place in the back of the room, and you can’t see a thing. Even less so in VR, where everything starts to blur at more than a meter away, unless you have a 4K per eye headset:

Just as pathetic is the final scene where two girls are kissing, and you’re… a dog? The camera is on the floor, a meter away…

hnvr211.jpg

That’s what happens when you shoot VR movies every now and then and hire a director who has no clue what VR is. It’s shot with a 2D mindset, where you’re looking at a screen from a distance. This isn’t VR—it’s a 2D movie shot with a 3D camera.

In VR, it’s about feeling the girls, about being right in the middle of the action. In that last scene, put the camera 15 centimeters from their mouths and show me how they exchange saliva, how they look at each other while kissing, how a nipple gets wet when the other girl sucks on it. That’s VR—that’s immersion—feeling the girls’ presence, trying to convey what they’re feeling…

Anyway. Six years waiting for a real lesbian VR movie. As I said earlier, it’s never going to happen.

Uh, Zampa continues to be a plague on the VR scene. Its been so long since we got a VR of Mio and it just had to be goddamn Zampa. Its also a theme which I'm not a huge fan of even if I don't exactly hate it - massage.

Ah well, Zampa's last VR with Mio wasn't actually bad. Quite decent in fact, so here's hoping this one doesn't suck too. Its 113 mins.

Hunter seems to have stopped making VR's in 2023 and then one in 2025 but just returned with two new VR's in 2026. Their studio's main concept seems to be to take basic male fantasies, however unrealistic, and film them. So guys move into apartment buildings full of horney ladies, classrooms don't allow girls to wear clothes, etc. They don't go for artsy cinematics or plasibility but just load up with independent actresses and make dreams come true. Sometimes their actresses are below grade but they often have a bevy of hot ones. They often do multiple girls or harem and the best part is the girls are allowed and encouraged to kiss, touch, and lick each other.

HUNVR-210 has you as a college student sharing a house with four girls who are constantly horny and constantly interrupting your studies to use your cock to fulfill their desires. The actresses are Nozomi Arimura, Narumi Hirose, Minami Maeda and Tsubaki Rika. To me, Minami and Tsubaki are the standouts lookers but all of them are very attractive.

The concept is simple but provides for a lot of hot sex, although the positions are simple so they don't have to adjust the camera much. The girls are on top doing cowgirl or sitting face-to-face for most of the sex and even the "doggy" positions have the guy still on his back. There's no intimate face-to-face missionary sex. But all the girls are so hot that you don't want to skip any of it.

The girls also do a lot of fondling each others boobs, nipple and boob licking, and a lot of girl-girl kissing. Minami and Tsubaki seem to pair up the most and seem to seek each other out for kissing, which I loved since they match well with more glamourous looks and Narumi and Nozomi pair up well with their more pretty girl next door looks.

I wish there were more top-down doggy and missionary positions but overall, this is a crazy hot video if you like harem and girl-girl.
 
The other Hunter VR new release is HUNVR-211. You and your hot wife go to a spa and get a couples side-by-side massage from two hot masseuses. When you look over at your wife, your shocked to see her masseuse kissing her, eating pussy and more.

1782637872832.png

Meanwhile your own masseuse is starting to work your cock too. Eventually, everybody combines, resulting in some hot positions like a masseuse riding your cock cowgirl, while she is kissing your wife. Eventually your passion for your wife is revived and she gets on top to ride you, while both messeuses make out with her.

Normally I don't like massage concepts but the addition of girl-girl and forbidden factor of wife being there makes this one pretty hot. A big plus is they didn't make the wife ugly; in fact she is hotter than the masseuses, who are darn hot themselves. Downside is lack of variety in the positions so they don't have to adjust the camera.
 
I think Genius might very well by our VR saviour for this year. The last few Honjo Suzu VRs have been kinda meh for me but this looks very promising indeed.

Its 104 mins so that's a good length but it does look like there might be a scene wasted on just watching her masturbate. However the sex scene looks very promising. It probably would be since its Genius. Bout time too, been a very long while since this beauty has had a decent VR.

Best of all, Suzu is signed to SOD which is on Afesta.

Another recent standout is SAVR-1066. Wild concept: You are a dude in a training class to be a JAV actor. The four girls (Miyu Aizawa, 逢沢みゆKarin Kitaoka 北岡果林, Kasumi Tsukino 月野かすみ, Meisa Nishimoto 西元めいさ) help train you in various sex techniques.

1782638440250.png

This cast is absolutely stacked with hotties:

Good variety of positions, cowgirl, sitting face-to-face, doggy with guy on top, missionary with girls face up close to camera. Good combo, girls stay involved and not wait their turn.

At the end, there's a super hot scene where you are an observer during a real JAV filming and the "real" actors' cocks are so drained that they can't get hard anymore, so the director looks around for anybody who can finish the scene, sees you on the sidelines and waves you in. The girls are excited to see you get your first shot and you have no problem getting it up and giving each girl creampie. Unfortunately, no girl-girl kissing in this one but there is some boob touching.

1782638609441.png

The surprising aspect of this one is that, with top tier beauties like Miyu Aizawa here, Meisa Nishimoto would seem to be the plainest girl in the cast. But she is just so good at VR, she is just mesmerizing with her eye contact and expressions making a deep connection with you through the camera, even when she is not the one your fucking, I just can't keep my eyes off her. And then when she is the one with you, she holds that connection so well even while she is boucing up and down and orgasming. Her scene in the school uniform, her hair, makeup and lighting is so good she glows perfection. Then in the last scene she cowgirls so hard while staying visually connected. I've becoming a huge fan of her VRs just because she is so personable and engaging. She steals the show in this one.

On Fanza, VR movies have started to go up in price—at least those from DMM Studios. From 1,980 to 2,280 yen. For reference, 2D movies cost over 3,000 yen.

Throughout 2026, I’ve been mentioning in my Fanza reviews of the 60- to 70-minute movies that I wouldn’t mind paying a little more in exchange for them lasting 100 or 110 minutes like they used to. For now, the two Moodyz titles and the S1 title priced at 2,280 yen are over 110 minutes long. The exception is one from E-body, which is 68 minutes long. But it’s possible that it had already been filmed. We’ll see if, with the price increase, the movies return to the 90–100-minute runtime they’ve always had, or if this is simply a price hike without any improvements.

For Europeans, buying JAV is cheaper than ever. When I started, 10,000 yen cost about 80 euros, but now the yen is so weak against the euro that they cost 54 euros. So a VR movie used to cost me 8 or 9 euros at launch, which is quite affordable. Now it’s one euro more with this price hike.

They're not just extras. They're porn actors. The father is Goro, the old actor who fucks with all the young actresses... He even has one with Mio...

I saw the mother in a lesbian movie two or three years ago, with a teenager...




In her previous VR, she was very thin, her bones showing in every position:

She has always had a perfect body, and in her first VRs, her bones weren't visible...

It's because of the diet that all Moodyz and S1 stars are forced to follow in 2025. If you look closely, they have all lost weight, most of them without needing to.

Maybe in this new VR she has improved a little. I haven't watched the trailer in VR, yet.

anyone know the name of the mum?

Completely unnecessary questions Japanese girls and women ask in JAV VR:

+Can I kiss you?
+Can I take this off?
+Can I lick it?
+Can I put it in?
+Are you enjoying this?

I don’t think there’s a single man on Earth who would answer any of those questions with a “No”… ;)

I know the Japanese are very polite and ask permission for everything, but those questions are completely unnecessary… :D

But these are the charm of JAV!
Add one more polite phrase -
+ When you're ready, it's ok to cum.
