This is somewhat of a long post, but stay with me. I'm hoping someone can educate me on this since I am not too familiar with Japanese culture or Japanese acting...

So, MOST of the American porn I watch is VERY fake. Most of the girls do not seem to actually enjoy it and they rarely have what appears to be a legitimate orgasm (but it does sometimes happen).

Since I've been watching Japanese porn (almost a year now) it seems to me that a majority of the performers do legitimately enjoy themselves and do frequently have orgasms...sometimes many orgasms in the same scene. I mean, I see girls shaking/convulsing, squirting, having trouble standing up because their legs are shaking, etc...all from what appear to be very powerful orgasms.

Now, are they just significantly better at acting than American pornstars? Or is there something different when it comes to Japanese porn that makes them actually enjoy what they do to the point of having intense orgasms?

I've even seen Japanese porn stars have what appears to be intense orgasms while having sex with some of the grossest looking old men you could imagine...I mean it amazes me that they even get turned on by them. Is there something I'm missing here as well? Do they find elderly people to be sexy in Japan?

Some of the main differences I notice between Japanese and American porn:

-Japanese scenes are usually much longer. The average American porn scene seems to be 30 mins or less, but I've watched Japanese scenes that go on much longer than that.

-Much more foreplay in Japanese porn. Some scenes will have a guy teasing and pleasuring a girl for a half hour before they even start having sex. An American porn scene would be over by then.

-Kissing. There is more of it in Japanese porn and I've noticed they kiss different than us Americans do.

-Squirting. Much more of this in Japanese porn (not that I mind).

-Resisting. A lot of scenes tend to have a female who initially resists the males advances only to eventually appear to have mind-blowing orgasms.

Anyway, I think that's it for now, although I'm sure I will think of some other stuff.

Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

What I instantly liked when I got into JAV is that they have way more body contact, with all their sloppy porn-kissing and nipple licking and what not, in American mainstream porn it's more like, "Your dick may touch her face, pussy and ass, but try to keep all other body parts away from each other, please".

The squeaky moaning when the actor barely touches their pussy is definitly all acting though, even if the actress does seem to have genuine fun (Yuma Asami for example.) that part is still all fake.

I like the woman to be in charge and JAV has the general reputation of being all r*** with crying women. While there is indeed much of that stuff out there, there's just as much consensual porn or, well, the stuff I'm looking for. I'd say when it comes to dominant women, japanese porn actually has much better content. There's some good amateur created femdom stuff on the western shores, but while they're good contentwise, they're obviously severaly lacking in production values and camera work.

What I kinda miss on the japanese side is woman who actually seem to enjoy anal and take the initiative, whether it's just acted or not. The girl riding the dude with his dick up her ass and seemingly enjoying it is something I've only seen in western porn.

In POV scenes on the japanese side, unless it's straight up r***, it's mostly the actress doing the talking, in western porn however, too often it's actually the guy you hear throughout the scene.

Old school American porn was way better than American porn today. Back then porn was more sensual and was about 2 people enjoying themselves. The American porn today more hardcore and is more about fucking the girl as hard as possible.

Jav has that sensuality and story aspect to it that I like. I also like jav girls in general because they are more natural looking. They try to keep fit as they know their body is their asset. American porn stars do a lot of bad things to their bodies like getting tattoos or drug abuse.

The one thing thing that irritates me about JAV is that some girls act very naive or sexual inexperience. The girl could be doing this for years and fuck hundreds of guys yet in her movies she still so passive during sex. I guess that's part of Japanese culture where the guy is expected to be in control.

The opposite extreme can be said for American porn stars. Americans porn stars exaggerate and fake so much. Sometimes I feel like they are "mentally resisting" during the act. In their heads they must be thinking I'm the one fucking you, so you can't be fucking me.I think its part of western feminism. I also watch Eastern European porn with girls from Czech or Russia. They are so much better than American porn actresses. It feels much more natural and feminine.

I have noticed much more dialogue in JAV than western porn- where both the man and woman are commenting during sex(even though I don't know what they are saying), but there does seem to be an ongoing dialogue in many scenes. I like that-only wish I knew what they were saying to each other.

As mentioned above, much more of a story in JAV where they attempt to set up a situation before the sex.

I love the fact that older, sometimes not terribly attractive women get to be in a sex film, and really pull it off. Their experience and sexual knowledge show through. They don't necessarily have to be a 40 or 50ish woman trying to convince you that they are much younger and just stepped out of a fitness salon.

What really gets on my nerves about American porn is the fact that even when playing a r*** scene, the girl seems to be in charge. Also those lousy lines such as "Fuck me harder", "I want to fuck your cock" and so. When joining both, makes an unwatchable mixture (for me) and "suck a dick and shut up, bitch" is the only thing that comes to my mind.

I have to admit, though, that sometimes so much moaning in JAV also gets on my nerves.

Those "fuck me harder" lines are the ultimate turn off. Makes me insta-flaccid. So not cute at all.

Blame Visa and Mastercard for that. Western porn (especially for sites/business that use processing in USA) is way more regulated than Japanese porn. This is why you don't see the type of r*** movies famous in AV done in the west. Companies who put them up/produce them would be receiving emails from their billers telling them to remove the movies right away else they may lose their billing capabilities. Japan may need the mosaic, but theme restrictions are more relaxed. This has led to western movies frequently coming off as too phony and fake. The plus side is some of the output from western studios has completely eclipsed Japanese AV in terms of production quality (Digital Playground, X-Art, etc.) though their titles do focus almost entirely on the act of sex in ways that are not really authentic.

Western porn = better asses, better thighs (purely a personal preference), more cocks in any orfice sumultaneosly

Japanese porn = better faces, breasts, acting, writing and creativity (or, some might argue, more perversions!)

Your regular JAV star is so much hotter than western porn, its amazing how many really ugly women there are in western porn, since the only requirement seems to be you are a woman who's willing to spread her legs and they'll give you work.

I have no idea why the censoring law still exists and it makes me mad/sad to think about how many awesome scenes are censored and the uncensored version exists on some luncy bastards home pc.

from what I watched oftenly fuck scene in american porn are much longer than JAV, because american like to edit make the sex look like long lasting, while in JAV the action are more natural from the foreply until finish / cum

what I don't like from JAV beside mozaik, is what I called classic JAV format : only 1 girls from the beginning until the end, with many variations : solo / masturbation, BJ HJ, 1 vs 1, 1 vs 2, bukkake, ecc but still I feel bored to watch only 1 girl

This is interesting as I prefer one woman over a huge mass of women. The only movies I'm okay with it are these masseur, doctor or Chikan movies.
But I feel bored by this movies who just do different variations. That is totally boring for me. I prefer a plot, scenario or story.

most of my friends & people that I know who prefer JAV have similiar reason like you, coz they prefer just one woman over many womens. but I prefer orgy action with more than 1 female vs more than 1 male

to bad adult video these days are prefer gonzo style than old style that have scenario, dialog and story like in the 70s. I think 70s style was more interesting than just do different variations like what I called "classic JAV"

now I like to watch ZUKO, Moodyz, Kira Kira because they quite often make orgy JAV or at least foursome MMFF

I honestly don't like seeing girls wear heels or shoes while they are getting fucked, so I like that girls in JAV are usually bare foot and the camera shows the feet more. Makeup is less too so you can actually see the actress' face.

(Mainstream) American porn is always shoes/heels, always tons of makeup, always shaved pussy, and often huge fake breasts, and the actress making ridiculous faces and robotically screaming lines like even getting fucked in the ass is the greatest thing they have every experienced in their life.

To me JAV actually shows more despite the censorship, or maybe to compensate for the censorship. I get to see the feet, the production values are better, the girls are more natural and beautiful, I get to see their face, the acting is less forced. Sometimes a girl really enjoys it. But sometimes she doesn't. At all. JAV is okay with showing that. I just find JAVs to be more realistic overall, even when they are more outlandish...

The main thing that I like about JAV is that the camerawork focuses more on their bodies. This is probably due to the censorship. For example, a shot like below, doggy style in JAV, we get to see Yui Hatano's beautiful back and hips. Because of mosaic, there's not as much of an emphasis on the penetration and more of an emphasis on the girl as a whole. However, in western porn this would probably show nothing but a super close up of cock in pussy for like ten minutes with a super close up of her ass sprinkled in, which is incredibly boring. (BTW this is my favorite camera angle ever, any JAV that has this shot is a keeper for me)

JAV stories and themes are much more interesting, and the buildup is infinitely better for the most part. In a story/plot heavy porn, a western movie would take about five minutes tops to build up before the sex, while JAV can go for longer, allowing for more investment. I feel like JAV is more realistic; all you have to do is look at the male actors. In JAV, there are some good looking guys, and there's some ugly guys and fat guys and old guys as well. In western porn, every guy looks like he's on steroids, no matter how old he is.

But western has the huge advantage in me being able to understand it. Also, I don't know if I'm just watching different porn than you guys or something, but in JAV (except in kiss themed JAV) most girls seem to not enjoy kissing as much as their western counterparts do, or at least they can't seem to hide it as well. Kissing in western porn seems much more natural and organic to me, while a lot of it in JAV seems forced. Also, though I hate the yelling and cursing in western porn, JAV can be just as bad with some girls sounding like dying cats/cats giving birth/dying cats giving birth. No, seriously, a lot of them sound like they're in massive amounts of pain. It's just as grating IMO.

Obviously I prefer JAV, but western stuff is nice too.
Agree to the first 2 paragraphs.

What usually happens in JAV during times when the economy slows down?

Do producers get more conservative, more generic, producing fewer niche videos? Or do they get wilder, more creative, trying to get the attention of that wealthier market segment that hasn't lost it's discretionary income?

Only thing i dont like about jav, is that they use old and fat guys. And yea, yea, i should care about the girl not the guy, but sometimes the guys are so fucking ugly that it gets imposible to enjoy the scene.

yes, to much zoom into penetration is boring :(

prefer to watch the whole body, how her body movement & face reaction while getting fuck

about this I totally agree with you, JAV is more realistic with regular actors

I think because JAV tend to make the actress act like they shy, most of JAV shown innocent & shy type, just few that show agressive, experienced, slut type

about in JAV some girls sounding like dying cats/cats giving birth/dying cats giving birth I think its personal pereference, some people like it but some other hate it, and I hate it, its sound not natural

for me western porn is nice too, I watch both JAV and western porn, especially for the eastern european actress from Private
