Blade Runner: I know the director of that Yui Hatano title and it's intentionally shot like that. His company doesn't take a fake route due to any laws, rather, their prime target are older men who enjoy the 'old way' of doing adult video.

Maybe it was the phone? I've no idea about VR, but the person showed me it on his S6 or S7 hooked up to Samsung's VR device.

That's a theme that's more common than it sounds. It's actually also common at newhalf brothels in Japan as an option: you can have the newhalf give you a makeover including sexy lingerie before you two have sex.

I got to 'try' out a One Shot Lighter title the other week (one with a lot of schoolgirls). It was my first ever VR experience and it was pretty neat, but it also made my eyes uncomfortable.

Blade Runner: a 'conservative' future for JAV is still light years better than what the west is capable of producing. :) I do think though that the west is winning with technology and accessibility: you've sites like X-Art that produce very beautifully shot (if erotically stale) content...

Supmop: if it's by a Japan company they have precautions in place.

"1) I would love to complete remove the mosaic too, but since i can't. I would at lease push for the smallest amount of mosaic as possible." Won't happen because more accurate mosaic requires more time and money. We're also riding another conservative wave. Expect thicker mosaic if anything...

1, 2, and 3 will never happen, sorry. 1: check other posts I wrote. Short story: Ethics companies with gov't and OB connections. 2 and 3: studios (even big ones) are making way less money due some in part to other wonderful subforums at A-O so way less funds for great titles. If one was...

Sorry for going off on a tangent, but is porn production legal or illegal in Taiwan? Is there Taiwanese AV? It's so bizarre how Japanese AV is popular there to the point that expos are regularly held, but there doesn't seem to be a local porn industry (or I'm not looking hard enough).

I think Nanami Nanase can by now be considered the Godmother of Semen. Hope she's doing OK with her post-AV life.

JAV isn't filmed for the pleasure of the actors because if that was the case it'd be nothing but prone-bone scenes. ;)

It is a racket, but they're rules still allow a lot more leeway (aside from mosaic) than any other country in the world. Whether you like it or not, Japan seems to be the only place that produces professionally-shot scat porn (in other words, titles shot in studios with professional crews...

Ethics companies = those companies whose stickers adorn many AV titles on the back of their covers. Two examples: http://www.vsic.jp/ and http://www.seihanrin.jp/ They are not owned by the gov't as far as I know, but many a retired police officer sits in top positions (amakudari) so don't...

No idea why individual titles are canceled, but the industry has more sand in its vagina now than ever before thanks to the accusations by Ms. "I was coerced into starring into AV, but ended up doing 100+ titles anyway". Every studio is real pissed off and the Ethics companies are stricter than...

ANYTHING's possible if you have the money. ;) If the model's OK and the studio's OK and you've $100,000USD or so to offer for international distribution rights along with flying out to Japan to meet the studio heads face to face, it may be doable. Casual AV fan wanting to see an actress's...

Studios keep the raw movies. Even though most contracts with models don't specifically state mosaic will be used, it's a given since the titles are just sold in Japan by default. I'm no lawyer, so it may not be an actual contract violation for the studio to sell the uncensored abroad, but it'd...

Justme4jav: GAS has (or had as I'm not sure if he's still there or not) an English speaker on their huge staff of 2 or 3 people. Consider emailing them and asking when #383 will be on R18. They may give you a faster answer than DMM and they always love getting fan mail...

2. Japan prohibits 'penis-going-into-vagina' prostitution. Pretty much everything else is fair game. Most brothel web sites even clearly offer anal sex (AF) as an 'option' if you're willing to pay a lot extra. Personal opinion: when it comes to selling sex (be it AV 'performances' or paying...

ohgodtoomch: I hate western movies that do the whole 'but we're not blood' thing too, but the reason they do that is a totally insane/stupid/draconian requirement by card processing companies and their banks about forbidding incest content. The reason they forbid things like incest and hard...

I'm a nice guy who has a relatively light afternoon today so: 1. Did you hear what this title's theme is about? 2. What can it be 3. By the way, have you had facials in private? 4. Was your first facial for a shoot? 5. Do you know what 'facial' means? 6. Really? 7. What's your ideal...

Is #1 cut off? Something about your ideal shoot for today. 2. A facial that left an impression on you. 3. Do you do facials in private? 4. Do you have any trigger (is there a better word than this?) for when people like your BF ask for it? 5. What's the best thing to say to (allow for a...

R18.com: I'll admit I am not a native speaker of Japanese, but do know it rather well. I read the PDF you linked to ( http://www.ippa.jp/pdf/ippa-musinsang20160713e.pdf ) and I do not see anything specifically requesting/demanding that studios halt distributing content overseas. May you...

AKIBACOM runs an actual shop in Tokyo that along with the huge web site. There are a few other sites that can do special orders, but this is the only one I know of that has an actual physical business as well. The others for all I know are operating out of people's bedrooms.

Casshern2: that's really distracting. I bet they had no idea she had a bandage that big there, were pissed, but already agreed to filming so just let it go.

Some girls may be pretty, but have horrible gokkun faces. The slack-jawed open-mouthed look brings out the worst in their features so even if they are awesome with their oral skills, the final portion causes boners to drop.

Sites like http://www.akibacom.jp/ (they have an English version and no I don’t work for them) can ship out any movie you want—including ones they don’t sell. They ship pretty much worldwide. Of course some countries may have stricter customs, but that’s something that’s beyond their ability to...

Don't mean to get all negative Nancy on you guys, but if you're going to put down good money to get movies subtitled, why don't you buy the original disc too so you don't have to watch with those gargantuan watermarks?

VR JAV now exists: https://twitter.com/One_S_L_VR

With the industry as it is now, never assume an actress is totally retired until she does an uncensored title. It's her $30,000USD+ insurance safety net in case her post-retirement dreams do not pan out.

In terms of legality (some of the commenters on her blog brought this up), it’s hard to say whether it’s totally illegal or not. Selling uncensored IN Japan of course is illegal, but outside of the country it’s not. Did her contract with the agency and studio explicitly say the titles will have...

Interesting blog entry and really neat to see an AV star address mosaic vs non-mosaic. It’s a first for me! I’m going to sum up the salient part since I don’t have the time for a direct translation: OK, let’s see, she seems a bit annoyed/let-down because for her, there’s a certain way she...

I think the RED CAT label/studio's output is all uncensored JAV titles released in Japan w/ mosaic. I don't have the URL handy to confirm though. There was one interesting case of an uncensored release being released in Japan from a few years ago: it was a title I think done by DREAMROOM and...

Mosaic will stay so long as ethics companies remain and since they're staffed by retired police officers with connections (amakudari), don't expect things to change any time soon. Be happy though that Japanese AV can produce titles with so much variety. Even if you don't like it, it's...

QQBB-002 = some western adult video movie? Searching for it shows me a cover starring a 'Ms. Riley' released in Japan by Center Village. There's a few domestic studios that import foreign porn for domestic sales (PLUM and MOMOTARO come to mind though I'm pretty sure they're owned by the same...

R18.com: the issue of overseas sales shouldn't make a difference since R18 is hosted in Japan, owned by a Japanese company, and is using a Japanese payment processor--and correct me if I'm wrong with any of this. Thus selling a movie on R18.com to a user in <insert country that isn't Japan...

princeali692: I'm really intrigued as well. It's one thing if they were pulled globally (contract issues, minor involved, etc.), but I can't fathom a reason why Top Marshal (the company that distributes KMP/Real Works titles) would ask DMM to pull them from their international site.

I defend DMM a lot (check my history on this thread), but I do agree with others that if you buy an unlimited/lifetime access to a movie and it gets removed for some reason, the least they can do is allow you to replace it with a movie of lesser or equal value from a DMM-owned studio. This...

I think I wrote this elsewhere in this subforum, but the overall theme is shuuchi （羞恥） (meaning 'embarrassment/shame') Specifically these titles are sometimes referred to as Body Check ones　（ボディーチェック）

I think women like Ayumi Shinoda and Lucy Liu are popular with those who like Asian women looking (and I hate to use the word) "oriental". They both have very angular faces with slanted eyes. I'm sure other people also just find them attractive for other reasons, but obviously someone like...

Blue Heatnix: http://www.r18.com/videos/vod/movies/detail/For-The-Ultimate-Cum-Swallowing-Lovers-Rena-Aoi-Maki-Hoshikawa/id=mvsd00294/?i3_ref=search&i3_ord=1 They got it in HD.

The person who runs its patrols for his content all the time. It's a one man shop and I've met him personally.

HOW DID A THREAD ABOUT AV STARS TURN INTO PICTURES OF ARNOLD, KAI GREENE, AND 'AIN'T NUTTIN BUT A PENAUT' RONNIE COLEMAN???

Quick PR for GIGA: http://akiba-web.com/ = their official English-language paysite. Looks like they charge around $30 to stream 500 movies and a bit more if you want to stream them all.

Pretty much all Voyeur is staged. No sane studio is going to secretly setup cameras to record women without their permission. What usually will happen is the company may put up ads for amateur women or possibly contact agencies and the women will shoot all their content back to back. They'll...

I know JADE makes a lot of voyeur videos and they have an English-language site that's uncensored at http://sexjapantv.com/ The one you linked two I've seen before and can't comment on the legality of their licensing (though I should have a partial answer to that in a few hours).

I'm going to be honest and say I couldn't digest all of your reply because you did not use paragraphs. ;) Let me say this: if you think there's even 100 people abroad who would definitely buy IZUMU new releases, then contact IZUMU and see if you can buy their titles wholesale (which they can...

I don't know IZUMU all that well but if they're like the other micro makers I know, you're talking about a company that may consists of two older guys at most who simply don't have the time nor resources to extend their operation outside of Japan. There and elsewhere, the number of people who...

It's because most companies put their heads in the sand when it comes to DVD pressing and still have it done abroad mainly in Taiwan. It's frustrating because they're all obviously anti-piracy and put money into organizations like the IPPA, but still go to the lowest bidder when it comes to...

bigrags: they probably don't put their stuff on DMM because they probably aren't happy with the % they would receive per sale. For their type of titles which obviously don't sell as much as your average maker, every sale does make a difference.

Different strokes for different folks. I've always been really fond of her face. She has a unique look.
