Most AV stars don't last too long in the business. It's possible they are only contracted for x number of titles, but it's more likely they just had enough of the industry and move on with their lives.

http://www.akiba-web.com/ It's run by GIGA so you're actually supporting them and they have monthly memberships.

Sorry to go off tangent, but if you like SILK LABO's output paparoach408, then check out La Coviluna and also Girl's Channel by SOD. The latter often recuts regular AV titles for a female audience.

You'll probably see titles with Ai Uehara and Ayu Sakurai (both retiring soon) that have new footage coming out till the year's end. And yea, more compilation titles than ever before are being released because studios still want to keep their output high, but are unable to keep it all new...

The top portion are just attendance #'s Actress 1: Hayase Arisu Actress 2: Nonomiya Kokomi Actress 3: Arimoto Sayo

99% of the time they're fake. The actors may be newer ones who still haven't had much industry exposure and the apartments may be actual people's apartments that are rented out for the shoot.

You should think it over. I saw how you timed the subtitles to match exactly with the text on screen with no screen-bleed. I don't think the other Akiba subtitlers are at that level yet (and my apologies if I'm wrong).

This is really good quality subtitling. You should offer your services in the sticky thread.

kharo88: that' s just a compilation title. MOODYZ milks the filming of the BakoBako series as much as possible by simultaneously filming as many other titles as they can. What happens lately is you'll get the main BakoBako release, a 'reverse/secret' version, and now other themes as well...

Kharo88: I just noticed this now and had to squint at the box cover, but the 'reworked' version is just the rental version. It says so in English on the bottom of the jacket spine.

Yes, they pay taxes...or legally should be. Most likely the agency each actress belongs to takes care of it just like they do for all their other needs.

Studios like Prestige also are their own agencies so the steps to get an actress on board for a title are really simplified. If you're a small independent studio who wants to cast a huge name (assuming she's not on an exclusive contract), it's an uphill battle and you better have a big wallet...

pararoach408: At least in the states, porn seemed to start with actual full blown movies (think Deepthroat and Debbie Does Dallas and maybe even Caligula) that just happened to have actual hardcore sex. What counted as obscenity back then and now is way different so studios in the 70's and...

Depends on whether the director is freelance or actually works for the studio. If the latter, it's more of a group effort. They may have a certain actress in mind or if not, they may contact an agency they work with and explain the type of movie and the agency can then provide model info for...

Hans: sorry, but I haven't seen an Ai Uehara movie yet so I can't comment.

Since most uncensored is produced by companies headquartered in USA, you don't often find titles with more dramatic themes like incest and r*** since credit card companies in the states forbid it. Of course if the language isn't English they can get away with more, but there's still a limit to...

soul242: That looks super old and I don't mean that in a negative way. I'm almost tempted to think it's an authentic urabon release going by the blond hair and the sunglasses. Both stopped being chic before the year 2000. Count me in the "want to know" group because I wonder who produced...

Supmop: it's the way she talks. I guess you need to know Japanese to understand it (and I really don't mean this in a cocky way!), but she gives off this really cute and affable performance in pretty much all of her work. The problem is it's almost too perfect like she was an android...

*PR is PPV. I'm not sure why someone would buy the titles when a monthly membership to non-PR seems to also have them (?). AVEntertainments also sells many of the same titles for a lot less both physical and PPV.

I'll bite: Hibiki Otsuki. As she's progressed in her career, she comes off more and more as an android trying to emulate a Japanese AV star. I don't mean this with her physical appearance (she's very pretty and has a unique look!), but her mannerisms and how she speaks.

Actually, I realized I only experience the slow-page loading issue when I am logged in to A-O. I tried in both Firefox and Chrome and when logged out or using a private tab, the site loads quickly. It's really strange and no other BBS has this issue with me. The pages usually hang for 20-30...

Ceewan: I'm on a gigabit fiber line in Japan. A-O's the only site I have this issue with and I wish I knew why. You're right that big movie studios are reporting record earnings but you seriously cannot equate big western movie studios like Warner Brothers with tiny Japanese AV companies...

Sorry, I don't check this sub-forum often. A-O always loads real slow for me for some reason (I think it's something to do with how they handle SSL) and sometimes pages won't load or A-O's main page will just load instead. Yes, I think review sites would be a great idea and I'm sure R18 or any...

Fisheraaa: you'd probably like the actors who do work for SILK LABO then. They're mainly Japanese James Deens. You find less macho men in AV because there aren't as many in Japan to begin with. Guys like Shimiken and Kuroda and Jitta are considered "big" nowadays. The most muscular regular...

Casshern: I replied to your thread. BTW, my post was more in line to what pikuseru wrote about one of the big uploaders going MIA for a few months. I didn't mean to post something totally not related to this thread and I apologize if that was how you received it so sorry about that.

My apologies if I upset you, but I still see you are uploading to JAV Library going by the link in your sig. You're right in that uploading a movie every few days is a drop in the bucket compared to other guys, but why not drop it to 0? Consider making a review site to show off the movies you...

Most of the guys makings making rips seem to work in the disc pressing factories in Taiwan and China. One of the studios I know presses in Japan and their piracy is closer to zero. I've recommended others to do the same so industy-killers like desioner and Casshern2 can stop making pocket...

soul242: he probably means this: http://www.aventertainments.com/studio_products.aspx?StudioID=524&languageID=1&Dept_ID=29

Supmop: Marica Hase is doing that (though I doubt she has a proper visa). The only plus really is the thrill of doing something in a non-Japanese environment with an all foreign cast and staff. Women in western shoots aren't treated like demi-goddesses like they are here. The playing ground...

http://minnano-av.com/ is a good one for basic info and filmography. At-mania looks like it was designed in 1997.

My post was about the Japanese AV stars. I wasn't referring to western ones (including actors) and have not seen the video. However, in both industries, the publicly reported earnings are rarely the truth.

natsuxdragon: Your pay scale is way off. AV agencies take a MASSIVE cut of the pay the actress receives for each film role. Hollywood agents would be frothing at the mouth in jealousy if they knew what % it is. Also $5000+ USD is possible (before agency cuts) for starring roles. So yes...

Supmop: that's a good question. I know it's happened, but I don't know the consequences.

"so is it legal if foreign company to shoot AV in Japan and use Japanese talents, and then distributing it as uncenssored outside japan ?" Sure, providing it's legal wherever that foreign company is incorporated. This is how pretty much all uncensored AV nowadays is sold. "how about if...

EroMura: the best way to learn is just to read a lot of Japanese sites and follow people on Twitter. You'll have to do a lot of translating. There doesn't seem to be that many Japanese AV sites in English that do more than just scratch the surface with videos grouped with hasty scene...

Interestingly, studios sometimes ask real bondage practitioners to direct or at least help with these movies. Less surprisingly is the grumblings you sometimes see on Twitter from them about these titles. For them mixing sex and bondage the way the above screenshots are shown is watering down...

The only illegal thing is distributing uncensored movies. A censored studio can theoretically create a second company abroad and host all contents there and thus produce uncensored AV too. If you're referring to a censored studio secretly taking their own movies and releasing them uncensored...

I haven't heard any rumors about censored studios owning uncensored ones. It could be possible? There are a few that import uncensored JAV back into Japan and add mosaic so it can be sold in video stores though.

The actual production for many AV both censored and uncensored is done freelance. Do people who directly work for Dreamroom shoot the movies? Doubtful. It's probably the same assortment of camera crew and staff that shoot AV for tons of studios both uncensored like them and censored in Japan...

Fisheraaa: wrong there friend. Heyzo, 1pondo, etc are all owned by the same company: Dreamroom. Dreamroom also makes a massive chunk of the movies you see on AVEntertainments. Check the 2257 info on all the sites you mentioned above and most will be for Dreamroom. You can pretty much...

Actually uncensored is extremely popular even in Japan and many top rank actresses have done uncensored now. Of course a good deal of uncensored stars lesser names, but not a month goes by without a huge name doing something uncensored.

Lack of storylines aside, something seems to be off about many uncensored titles.

The time spent on editing most movies is so minimal that a dedicated sound database being used to professionally splice in wailing battle cries exists nowhere. What you hear is what's recorded.

route15519 I have no idea what you just wrote.

Each studio sets their own price. Larger studios are usually cheaper. Fetish movies usually cost more b/c less people buy them.

Delivery = out-call escort.

Kikaku basically are the type of actresses who opt or unable to take on lead roles. If there are titles that feature a large cast of women but with only one big name, then the other women are kikaku models. Sometimes they are just wallflowers and don't do anything sexual, but simply exist...

CodeGeek: Yea. Does it mean something else here?

If you're talking about having legit movies physically shipped to you, you can try the following sites: http://www.akibacom.jp/ http://jlist.com/ http://www.squareplus.co.jp/ I probably skipped a few. However, I don't know what the laws are in PH regarding importing adult contents so that's...
