The studios is currently facing manpower shortage in the area of filming crews and staff.

The suitation is so bad that some of the crew members had choose to sleep in at the studio after filming had wrap for the day in order to get everything on scheduel for the next round of filming. Some of them don't even get to see home for a week.

That will explain why the studios don't dare to put a specific release date for quite a few titles of late. It's not know if this is a fallout from the ongoing fiasco which drives people to mass quit in order to distance themselves but given that this is a recent development, it will suggest so.

And how do some agencies attempt to clear themselves of any wrongdoings they have been implicated in ? Like many actresss, the management took the easy way out and simply change the name.

For favors, the management can also reassign people to different department and even have a new address for the office. And there you have it, a new agency is form. And they also get tax rebate from the government being a new company and all. One only have to look at the history of Julian and Aoi to see the evidence which they kept the persona name under different managment.

Counter argument, they didn't know that the actress was coerced into filming prior.

Removing the video and profile demonstrated their sincerity in resolving the issue.

or they just preventing further problems that might drag them

sincerity in resolving the issue are only polite word, actually they only play safe

True that some polite gesture have less than altrustic reasonings behind them. But you cannot deny the gesture itself.

I wonder if its true that Hana Nonoka and other ex actresses are submit this case to court, and if they loose the case, would dmm and other sites recover all the contents ?

I can't wait to see the result

Aoi Tsukasa had issued an apology for her disengagement from fan interaction for the first half of this year on the official Twitter account of her agency without going into too much details as well as giving thanks to her fans for the continuous support :-

The way she worded hints that she may retire. Especially that last sentence, "Please support me for a little longer"

2017-7-9: Strongest No-tits S-class girl Shuri Atomi 跡美しゅり suspends AV career

After あおいれな, another top idol is lost from AV industry.

With a sweet doll face and petite loli figure, Shuri Atomi is a killer in bed. She just announced her suspension of AV works on her twitter account. Just like あおいれな, her reason is health problems.

How important is she? For last 6 months of 2016, she was ranked no. 8 in DMM's total sales ranking. And for first 6 months of 2017, she ranked 10th. She achieved this by working extremely hard releasing far more vids than most AV performers.

[following is brief] AV industry is a place where the top performers get overworked regularly. Not only she's making many vids every month, she was also grouped with 3 other AV idols in a new "Harajuku Circus 原宿☆バンビーナ. It seems the work load has gotten to Miss Atomi and she has to call quits.

But both Atomi and あおいれな chose the wording "suspend" rather than "retire", leaving their fans a thin slither of hope that they may one day return to make AV.

After Aino, Rio, Rin Sakuragi, Yura Sakura, another loli is leaving us. She said health problems, so it's like Yura's case.
I'm surprise she was so popular since she's the super petite loli type that only appears in Hentai, but I assume she have some work done before her debut. Her real voice is quite deep too, but she speak in a higher pitch during her later av. I guess 2-d loli fans are attracted to her too.

2017-7-9: Idols' Halo isn't omnipotent, AKB48 member Miu Sanae 紗凪美羽 career sliding

With ex-AKB48 Yua Mikami topping the AV charts, ex-NMB48 岡田梨紗子enjoying a buzz as hot AV debutante Miko Matsuda 松田美子, and the industry still remember past AKB-to-AV successes like Riko Yamaguchi やまぐちりこ and Risa Tachibana 橘梨紗, it seems AKB and related groups are the goose that lay AV golden eggs.

[bonus gossip: after retiring from AV in 2013, Risa Tachibana was exposed by the media to be working as a prostitute in 2016. ]

Not quite, we notice two ex-AKB member who are not doing so well now.

First we have Haruna Aisaka 逢坂はるな disappearing (see earlier report below), actually her case is a bit of a shame. Some people blame all her difficulty on that debut vid [TEK-052, all the way back in 2013] seems that vid left such a bad impression that she still can't shake the reputation as a "landmine".

Second, we have Miu Sanae 紗凪美羽. As seen in MDYM-271 三つ指尽いてお出迎え!緊急爆買い外国人対策!ジャパニーズ流の中出し風俗でお・も・て・な・し(ハート) みう (release date 2017/08/25), Miu had been unceremoniously demoted from Maxing's contract idol to un-credited [I call them fake amateur or anonymous idol] project [or planning] performer for a mid-rank studio.

The studio seems to think her AKB idol-ing history to be pretty worthless and focus the marketing pitch at the creampie angle. That's rather low, for a still-fresh face (only 4 vids released so far).

The way it looks, Miu Sanae's career is unlikely to rise again.

I was too lazy and only transliterated the Chinese word, I think it's a figurative phrase to mean a DVD that turns out to be a total disappointment (compared to the cover), for example, I've heard that some Muteki vids to lack any sex scene.

It could even be double-figurative-speech. As I have heard "landmine" to mean dog poop on the street waiting for careless pedestrians to step on. That's pretty apt for a particularly bad debut vid by a high-profile ex-AKB idol.

Well I am not a loli fan. The typical JAV loli vids make me very uncomfortable (worse than futanari and gay porn, but not as bad ad scat and bestiality).

Not judging other people's taste and preferences but just positioning myself for my view of Shuri Atomi:

As a non-fan of loli, Shuri Atomi is the one and only loli I can name, and the only loli vids (except for a couple by Aoi Shirosak, depends on if you consider her loli) I watched.

If Shuri Atomi is a loli, she's a very unique one. Her body might be petite, but she has very feminine curves. Her face (likely had plastic surgery) with make-up is at the same time super cute and super feminine. So compared to almost all other lolis, actually even compared to all other AV idols, her face is pretty to the point of unreal. Of the current AV gen, she is the only one who look more like a futuristic sex-robot from mangas than a human girl.

Most importantly, she is very very horny and sexually skillful. She is best in a multi-player situation. The fact that someone like me likes her is an explanation why she ranked so high in DMM sales chart. A "classical" loli may get huge devotion from the loli fans, but DMM sales is decided by raw numbers, put her on the cover, and you get mainstream fans like me turning heads. I'd be curious what's the peak ranking position by other current or past loli.

Edit: perhaps loli is the wrong label, Shuri might be more moe 萌. A lolicon is a sexually undeveloped child. A moe could be biologically (sexually) developed but look (with make-up) like a doll.

Just how much does a female AV talent gets paid ?

An actress salary is a closely guarded secret. On the average, a studio contracted actress gets about USD 9000 per film while a freelancers gets about USD 7000. Popular actress gets more of course and vice versa.

Of course, those popular ones are paid bonus if they are willing to do modeling and attend events. Their agency will set the price and gets a cut of the fee paid. At the end of the day, depending on the agency, the talent could get around just 50 - 60 % of the fee paid to have her attending the modeling gig or event.

Semi-popular actress like Mihiro who is one slight tier below sora Aoi and Maria Ozawa used to make $1 million USD annually easily before her retirement in 2010. Popular ex-idols like mikami and takasho could still earn that much. I think yui hatano, hibiki, and akiho could too since they film for more than one studios each month and is well known throughout Asia. This doesn't account for the filming promos and event fees they could potentially make outside of Japan. I could imagine there are some that could make over $2-3 million USD per year given their popularity as best seller and household name + social media following, and exposure rate.

Proof that being and ex-idol isn't enough to gain attraction in JAV. I always said it when people brought the argument about Yua Mikami and Shoko Takahashi being ex-idol so it's normal that they are top sellers. NO. If their movies weren't good, ex-idol or not, they wouldn't sell well their new releases.

Well I am not a loli fan. The typical JAV loli vids make me very uncomfortable (worse than futanari and gay porn, but not as bad ad scat and bestiality).

I like some loli and of course I like Shuri. You said it, her personnality on camera is really different from other loli. Really active and often lead the sex. That's what attracted me at first. That's why I also like Noa Eikawa.

Some devoted fan of Sora Shiina showed off all 88 of her titles in celebration of her birthday yesterday.

88 titles after almost 2 years.....worthy of being the next Uehara ?

While I don't disagree with you necessarily, both Yua and Shoko were more popular in their previous careers than either of the other two; even among NMB fans I think only the most hardcore would recognize Sanae Miu. While Risa was arguably more of an unknown, she was also one of the first AKB members to do it, and at a time when AKB was at its peak rather than now, when they're arguably at a decline.

That being said both Yua and Shoko have done well to cultivate their new careers, even though personally I think Yua is a weak performer. She does a lot outside of her movies (on TV shows, twitter, etc.) to cultivate her fanbase as compared to most idols or even celebs-to-av, who usually shoot their movies but don't make appearances outside of them.

That's fucking unreal.

One title per 8 days (about), well quite a few of them are non-solo vids. But still that should work out to 3 fucks a week. Not just any 3 minute quickies that professional hookers do, but those elaborate 45 minutes per sex scenes. Gosh I feel exhausted just imagining it.

2017-07-13: AV idols hate it too when they become "Cover Killer"

[I don't know where the phrase "Cover Killer" comes from, is it originally Chinese or a Chinese translation of a Japanese saying? Anyway, it means a girl who look super hot on the heavily Photoshopped DVD cover, but the video shows her to be disappointing.]

[I'm skipping much of the article about how specific vids and idols were mangled by photoshopping and how different ppl react to them]

Why are there so many horribly photoshopped covers, especially from the Uncensored industry? According to a certain agency, Uncensored studios have been hit hard by bad sales and government persecution, so many studios have downsized their staffs and make the remaining workers do more with less. So you get a lot cover art prepared by staff without the skills and experience for the job.

[I haven't been watching uncensored vids much for several months, partly due to lack of interesting, high production value titles, seems fair to say the decline in quality is real. I guess I'm actually say, you CAN judge a vid by its cover, even knowing covers are Photoshopped]

Arr...Shuri Atomi going on a hiatus? If there's one AV girl I would like to dump my genetic material in, it would be her. As it is, too much of it already has gone down the drainpipe because of her...
