I think it's more likely a normal bar with hostesses. She posted pics on her Twitter, there is nothing special there.
Sorry to re-post this here : anyone knows if Matsumoto Marina is still active, or did she retire again?
Anybody knows Riri Houshou (Ichikawa Ayane, Kotone Ichika, Memori Shizuku, Rumina Asahina) (yes, she has a lot of names) ?
She got some cancer like last year. No solid news about her. I assume she survived cause I think I saw her video in early 2020. Is she still in the business?

I would love for her to come back and breath life into the gyaru world. She is one of the GOATs.
It would seem that they're both active again, with Minori being more active compared to Rina
I agree! She is an absolute favorite. Is she officially outta here?! Noooooooo!!!!
Matsuri Kiritani is NOT officially retired. But such a long time without any official declaration/explanation, it's just as bad as formal retirement. Actually I might even say it's worse. Having no news for such long time is worse than formal retirement. Just a hunch...
Thanks for the info. Can I ask - why is silence worse than official retirement? Could this period of no work since last November's last title be something ....bad?? Worse than quitting (retiring?? I have no idea - like what?
Sorry to jump in. I agree with it being worse than official retirement due to the fact that you aren’t aware what has happened to someone you are a fan of. Perhaps she is ill, passed away, has mental or physical problems. Maybe the person suddenly wants to be off-grid and start a family or have a “normal” life.
Just my 2c
Yeah what @Jackdee said, plus a million other possible scenarios.
In broad strokes, an active idol conclude her career in 3 general ways, (1) fading: she wants to continue, but there aren't enough job offers to keep her going; (2) moving on: she found a husband/lover, or a real job/business, or accumulated enough money, and leaves the industry for temporary or forever; (3) forced out: outside factor, such as health, accident (e.g. car crash), family crisis (exposed, doxxed), crime, addiction.
Type 2 is easiest, it's common nowadays (social media) that a "happy" retirement is explained. These kind there's a decent chance (I'd say 10-20%?) she might return to JAV, especially if fan support is still strong, and/or she burns up all her savings. So existence of explanation means some chance of return.
Type 1 is most commonly unexplained, partly because it's nothing to be happy/proud of, partly it's lack of fan interest. If there's a lot of fan support/interest/request there's much more likely to get an explanation. Type 1 non-official "retirement" is, I think, quite unlikely to see a return. So no message means lower chance of return.
Type 3 sometimes is explained sometimes not. Because it's neither industry decision, nor idol's own will, the motivation to return is high. If the external factor is resolved, the possibility to return is pretty good. Because of this, even when details/explanations are unavailable, and future is unknown, either the idol herself or the agency would put out some assurance (which really assure nothing, if you read the words carefully) or substance-free message "Don't forget me yet!" which of course tells you nothing and promises nothing. Sometimes the message is as little as "She's fine!" (means she's not dead, yet) or "She has not yet announce retirement formally". But then if even such empty messages are not given that really is UN-promising.
