Aoi Sola

[shoryuken]

Has Aoi Sola ever done a full out gokkun movie?
I've searched around and it doesnt seem so. I'm thinking she's the type of JAV actress who's a little more traditional and not so much into the crazy stuff.

Sorry, correction. She goes by Sora Aoi in the porn industry...dont know why she goes by Sola Aoi other wise...quite odd.

It's a transliteration issue. It really should be Sora Aoi anytime it's written in Romaji (Japanese written with the Latin alphabet). When written in Japanese, her name is 蒼井そら, where 蒼井 is Aoi (her "family" name) and そら is Sora (her personal name).

The inconsistent word order has to do with the fact that in Japanese, the family name comes first. But when it is written in Romaji it is standard to put the personal name first, as is done in western languages.

As far as the Sora/Sola issue, Japanese doesn't have separate sounds for 'L' and 'R'; they have one sound that's "in-between". Normally, it's transliterated as 'R' unless written in Katakana when it could be 'L' in some circumstances. But since her personal name is written in Hiragana, ら should be assumed to be 'ra'.

Unfortunately, people screw stuff up all the time when transliterating Japanese to English/Romaji (and vice versa). It's mostly because the person doesn't have a very good understanding of the other language and just guesses.

Hope that helps!
