I am impressed everyone here is astute, as the name "
Risa Murakami" meant nothing to me. I did a little fishing, and discovered I had recently covered her in a
post of my own (regarding MADA-074), and my comment was:
"Sarina Takeuchi is a knockout"
Ohhhhhh, so that's who she is. The first thing I should mention, then, for readers who are not in-the-know as I, is that this other name she goes by is no less popular than her Risa moniker. To wit, according to the invaluable English-language JAV site,
Asianscreens:
Risa Murakami
Sarina Takeuchi
I enjoyed member
Timhuxley's response, thinking it insightful. As he wrote, the odds of her having been coerced are extremely slim, and the best reality is that she would have performed in DFE-008 completely of choice. (The
Linda Lovelace "r***" claim is very rare, probably even for Linda Lovelace.) One Tim Thought that jarred me slightly was his accurate analysis of the AV actress who has been around needing more to scrape the bottom of the barrel. But would that apply to Risa/Sarina? She is just too beautiful to be that desperate, and I can understand why
Boddyk5 is bowled over by her.
Risa/Sarina is definitely not a spry young newcomer; that other English-language JAV site
(Actionjav) claims she was born in April 30,1983, if that is to be believed, making her almost exactly thirty, at this point. By porn movie standards, yes, perhaps that would make her a bit over-the-hill. She's in that middle ground between "Lolita" and "Mature" (although some would say she's already mature... even though she appears young enough), but the industry has made the latter category an exploitable commodity in its own right; so it doesn't always follow that an actress who is no longer as youthful would be desperate enough to take any demeaning offer.
(For example,
Maki Hojo is a superstar, and certainly still in demand. Yet she has not been averse to appearing in a scatology number, or two. It's possible some of these actresses decide to do the weird stuff to expand their horizons, and for kicks.)
Actionjav notes:
Risa Murakami is one of those AV actresses who looks so amazingly beautiful in her photos that it makes you wonder whether she will measure up on screen. I'll make it easy for you - Risa delivers! Not only does she have a smoking hot body to go with her refined beauty, but Risa is actually very versatile as an AV actress. She is able to go from playing a submissive victim in one film to a smoldering, man-eating vixen in another, which is honestly something that very few other AV actresses can claim.
"Beautiful Cabin Attendant" is a good place to sample Risa's submissive side, as she mixes in some light bondage scenes. Her sexually aggressive persona surfaces in her portion of "Harmony Gal Erotic Style The Two", where she plays a dolled-up dominatrix in a couple scenes. The rest of Risa's videos showcase her acting talent and her ridiculous beauty, and will leave you thirsting for more!
Boddyk5, I can understand your frustration about wishing to learn more about a favorite performer, but in the porn world it's not going to be easy to find behind-the-scenes revelations. It's certainly true of American porn actresses, and we can understand why, given that the actresses go by phony stage names. 'Real life" stories would not be typical, unless an actress dates somebody from another circle, such as
Charlie Sheen. In the case of JAV actresses for non-Japanese speakers, the situation becomes even more difficult; if anything of interest is revealed regarding their private lives, the information would be trapped in the hard-to-decipher Japanese sites.
Timhuxley mentioned the improbable possibility of social media to find nuggets of knowledge, and
Paparoach408 has prepared a
nice thread regarding actresses' blog sites. Risa/Sarina is absent from the list at this point, but perhaps she has a blog, as well.
