Hi (Saori Hara (Miyavi Matsunoi) Alliance)..maybe this way is the best for now???:confused:

Yes I'm back again because I forgot one important thing yesterday..Miss Saori's Birthday! :shooock:

Yes it's her 26th birthday today 1st of january (you'll probably know this anyway) so here is a little birthday message which I posted on the thread last year, But was deleted when akiba went offline. So here it is again with a few added words, I know it's not much, but here goes...
misssaoribirthda.jpg


Now I just hope Miss Saori will not hate me for using that picture from her debut video for SOD for her birthday message, I've always loved that picture.

And now the best thing, To my surprise our leader posted a really nice New year - Birthday message on her facebook and twitter pages plus she posted a fantastic video to go with that message on youtube which is a treat for all of us who love this girl, because that message comes straight from the girl herself.

So her message, In Miss Saori's (Miyavi's) own words...

Happy New Year!! It is the birthday of my 26 year old today. Everyone in the world to be happy…♪

New year - Birthday message Video.

A really nice video, Looks like from her (Omikuji) Fortune Paper she's going to get Good luck this year!! plus a bonus for me is she's wearing a kimono and she looks beautiful as always. But of course the most important thing for me is she seems happy and that's great to see.:)

There was a comment posted on her facebook page saying
New Year, New name, New life Good luck !
It's a nice comment and everything is true about it, But that comment has got me wondering does Miss Miyavi want to forget all she did in the past under the name Saori Hara maybe she does, I don't know?? It's a question that will be running around my head for a long time I'm sure......:(


But in the meantime, I'm going to leave you with some nice pics from the past of that girl called Saori Hara ..:inlove:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saori_Hara said:
On December 11, 2009, Shueisha published Hara's autobiography titled My Real Name Is Mai Kato: Why I Became an AV Actress (本名、加藤まい 私がAV女優になった理由) (ISBN 4087805409). The 144 page book details Hara's upbringing and family life, her views on sex and her career as a teen idol and eventual AV idol. Her book is one of a number of autobiographical publications by actresses about the AV industry going back to Ai Iijima's million-selling Platonic Sex and including Mihiro's partially fictional May 2009 work nude and Honoka's tell-all Biography of Honoka: Mama, I Love You published in January 2010, which adult media reporter Rio Yasuda sees as marking a trend in which the AV industry is losing its stigma and being assimilated into Japanese popular culture.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4087805409/

Did anyone of you read that book? I'm interested in a brief summary.

I think I saw her in Vancouver, Canada in the summer of 2013. I was waiting for a table at a Vietnamese restaurant, and she came in with a friend. She expected me to give her my seat while waiting, but I didn't and she gave a disgusted look. I didn't recognize her until I left the place, or else I would've asked for a pic plus an autograph!

Hello my fellow Saori Hara fans.

I am sure that many of you been wonder what happened to Saori after the Japan's 311 earthquake. Well, here's the story.

After the earthquake, Saori decided to leave the industry and never look back. After the retirement, she worked in a bar, she also joined a band and pursue her music dream.

The most importantly, is that, Saori already married since 1 year ago. Saori revealed this news in her blog last 2 night. She said her husband is 50 years old. And they got married after 3 months since they met.

So yes, Saori will not return to the AV business, unless she is divorced, which I hope that will never happen at all.

What can I say, This is really heartwarming news to hear and like I said before, For me personally I didn't care if she return to the AV business, For me it was all about was Miss Saori hara alive and well?

So now we know what happened to her after the earthquake thanks to ryuuga's news, That she must have done some soul searching to leave the AV industry trying to find herself once more and now she's married !! Now I want to be truthful with you all in saying I'm pretty jealous of that lucky guy! But also I am really very happy that she has found love and happiness, This is all I wanted to hear.

So like coolkevin, Let's wish Saori and her husband a long and happy marriage!!:confetti:

I'm happy for her that she got married. But marrying a 50 year old? I mean: How old is she? That's really a huge gap. Okay, no one can control love - maybe Cupid can, but not human beings. Still I'm a little bit sceptical.

Regarding the logo, when you say
it has sentimental value to me
I know what you mean, so we will keep the SHA logo as it is, That's fine my friend after all most people know our leader as Saori Hara anyway. Well when you get sometime, we love to see some more of your beautiful artwork here on the thread. So I will send you a PM ASAP...My good friend.;)

Hi CodeGeek

Just want to say thanks for your posts on the thread,

http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4087805409/

Did anyone of you read that book? I'm interested in a brief summary.

Now as you probably know if you read through this thread, I've got this book and I have been trying to find the time to translate it, I mean translating a JAV title to english takes a bit of time to get right, So translating this book which is 140 pages long is going to take a while to say the least, Plus I could get it translated professionally which is expensive. So like I said before one day I will get this book translated! that's a promise.:O

Well a brief summary is hard for me to nail as I have not read the book word for word. but basically this book is about Saori reminiscing about her past, about not fitting in, working in a boring part time job and at 21 years old decided to grab a dream that would change her life forever, Do a JAV and the taboo's of working in that industry, Plus she wanted to tell the world her real name IE Mai Kato and she asks I'm only human, Was it the right decision ? and goes on to say only you can decide What is the value of this book?

Here is a little translation from the beginning of the book were she describes a scene from her first JAV(STAR141) which I put on the first post of this thread...
star_141_l.jpg


""The actor opened his hand in front of me. It seemed really wet, filled with sweat... This part of the shooting was only supposed to take a few seconds. But then I realized that the wetness was from me, from down there. At that moment, it was spurting out of me. I felt messy, ashamed and sad. A lot of feelings were in my heart and mind, combating one another, and just like that it was over."


I'm happy for her that she got married. But marrying a 50 year old? I mean: How old is she? That's really a huge gap. Okay, no one can control love - maybe Cupid can, but not human beings. Still I'm a little bit sceptical.

Right for the record Miss Saori Hara is 26th years old at the time of this post, Ok for the life of me I never understand why most people have got a problem with age, I mean you still got the same feelings if your 50 or 26 and besides is 50 really that old?

Now you say your sceptical, well you got to look at it through Miss Saori's eyes for a moment, Now this girl did JAV for a few years and she knows better than anyone the crap that comes with working in that industry especially when you leave it. IE most so call men think you are Spoiled goods, not worth their time....
Just read this article about What happens to Japanese porn stars after they retire? and read some of the stupid comments below that article and you get the picture.

http://www.japantoday.com/category/entertainment/view/what-happens-to-japanese-porn-stars-after-they-retire

So maybe the guy she's married gives her a sense of security she needs and he loves her for who she is as a person and not bothered what she did in the past, Plus I hope she's happy and will remain that way for years to come, that's my hope anyway.

One thing I do know from reading her blog for many years is this, she's a smart person and she knows what she is doing, Just read this interview of Miss saori hara from 2009... which I posted on this thread back in 2011 and you get the picture...
One of my favorite magazines Weekly Playboy has a feature called, We love AV.
I did a gravure shoot with Rio-chan, Mihiro-chan and Akiho-chan.
The AV industry is 30 years old, and it’s the first time that an AV actress has been on the cover. It’s been 6 months since I debut in this industry.

Initially when I entered this industry, I was told that I’m a “loser” idol that became a porn actress, she’s really stupid, she’s not even thinking about her future and also was told that no one would be interested in me (fans).
I realized that entering this industry, that I’m going lose out on a lot.
I thought at that time, that I would never make it on to the cover of Weekly Playboy.

I’m really happy that I’m able announce, that I made the cover within 6 months of entering the industry.

I know that a lot of people don’t think highly of the AV industry and I was told this by many.
I personally think that this industry, has changed it’s public image.
The actresses in this industry has also changed and are dedicated professionals.
This industry has become more competitive and structured more like a normal mainstream corporation.
The demands of the staff is higher and the quality of the work produced and the quality of actresses are at a higher level. It’s not easy to become an AV actress nowadays and to become rich and successful. Before becoming an AV actress, there’s multiple audition processes, meeting all sorts of different people, negotiating, aligning yourself with sales and production staff.

Many people thinks the AV industry is simple and they mock the people in it, but it’s a serious business operations.
If you don’t meet the sales quota, “you’re fired”.
However, there’s all sorts of people in this AV industry, some people work really hard, and others that don’t work hard nor care about anything.
I’m saying this out spite or to say that I was right to begin with. I’m sure that some actresses in this AV industry, would think that what I’m saying is rude, but I’m telling the truth.

I know that what I’m saying might cause me embarrassment, but I just needed to say it. But this happens in any industry.
If I believe in what I’m doing, in whatever industry I work in, God is going to protect. I’ve had good times and bad times, but no one can tell me what’s truly right and what’s truly wrong. I can only do what I can do, and want to do. I really love this industry and my job.
That’s why I’m in the position that I’m in.
If you want to laugh at me… go ahead and laugh.

No one knows what the future will be. I can’t tell you if I’m going to be successful or a failure in this industry.
However, being on the cover of Weekly Playboy and changing the course of history for this magazine, makes me feel happy.

See she's smart, So marrying a 50 year old guy is not that big a deal to her I would think and one thing we can all say, she was very successful in the AV industry and well still is really, Because the videos are still selling and SOD are still making money off her and will do for many years to come, plus I'm sure she will attract many more fans and admirers going forward.:cool:



So I'm going to leave you with one of Sir alternity's beautiful artworks of our commander in chief....

Miss Saori...:inlove:

Thanks, uk21 for taking so much time to respond to my 2 posts.

Still I'm not sure what I should think about the 50 year old guy. Yes, maybe he is the only one he sees the true person behind the name and face. But still I think the age gap is big. True love is one thing and it definitely happens. The other side is that the are from totally different generations. And if she will give birth at, let's say, 30 he will be 54. When the kid will enter school he maybe will be retired. And when the kid leaves school he maybe will already laying on the cemetery. If they will have more kids it will be even worse. And that's only the aspect about kids. You know what I mean?

Hi CodeGeek

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I do understand were you are coming from regarding having kids in a age gap relationship. But look around and you will find many relationships with a bigger age gap then saori and her husband having kids, Like for example Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Thomas who have a 26 year age gap between them who had their first kid last year.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2553187/Beaming-Alec-Baldwin-oblivious-drizzle-cuddles-wife-Hilaria-baby-Carmen-Madrid.html

Now I know saori and her husband probably would have discussed all the ins and outs of having kids by now, I mean they have been married for 1 year. But like I said in my previous post Miss Saori Hara is a smart person and I think she knows better than anyone else the pitfalls of being in this marriage, Just like when she entered the JAV industry all them years ago. At the end of the day any true fan or admirer of Saori Hara should just be pleased for her and not question her decision to marry this guy, it's her life after all. But as a fan and admirer the only thing I'm guilty of is bing jealous of that guy, But at the same time I'm just happy for Miss Saori for many reasons...good luck to her!!

So this happend for real...Congratulations Miss Saori Hara !!:confetti:

I am not a JAV fan,so I did not know anything about Saroi until after I read this thread, (no I did not go through every post, it takes me ages to read from the screen). So thank you guys/girls, for all your posts

I am sure they are not getting married on a whim, and age would not matter between them, it is only from the outside, and from a few people, that would doubt the age gap, the rest would wish them well.

I stopped reading comments, from certain blogs and news clips, some people think they are so perfect, and so short sighted, they feel they have to write there own BS to satisfy there own needs, no matter how insulting to others, (I have had to ban some members from Akiba, for going way over the top and not quitting) in the same way every body has an opinion, so all those who think AV actress's should go to hell when they retire, make me angry and sick, (I wish them all the best for there future)


Logos/Avatars/Signatures, we all love them, lets keep them, we all got favourites, mine is Yuko and now is married, (and I read idiots remarks about that to)


last thing for now
Take care guys...Back soon.
:D what why?, taking a break, I wish you have a good time, take care
