DMM - Sales Rankings - Second Half - Year 2024 !

[Mancinisos]

近藤あさみ (Asamichan) released 2 DVDs in second semester of 2024:

• 夏恋日和/近藤あさみ : 74th of the second semester. The second part was not as aggressive as the first, and of course you see that in sales.
• たおやかな君/近藤あさみ : 98th of the second semester. It was an average DVD. There are some good sequences there, but of course not as agressive as the "Two Trips". I thought it would do a little bit better.
• Asamichan has not promoted her titles a lot for months now. She said in TikTok that she had received material, but then decided not to use it or even ask for more material.

Now there is only Asamichan doing movies with FACE. There is big title coming end of March 2025. This time it is from recent shooting !

It is presented as "mature" and "filmed with mature style". It is again チュンペイ who is doing it.
So we can expect something similar to the "Two Trips" (BFAA-101 and BFAA-105) ! I imagine she has no real choice if she wants continue sell DVD.

I find it strange she hasn't promoted much of her works in 2024, was it even allowed? I would be quite mad if I was an executive at FACE.

"She said in TikTok that she had received material, but then decided not to use it or even ask for more material."
I remember she used to post a few sexy bonus photos of herself on X, but one day they were all gone. Did she ever explain why and why she decided not to promote her works using those material? It's strange.

I can write about things she said publicly in the past : She does not like being only considered as "some kind of AV actress". She does not like people use her images or movies for free. As she wrote once : "正直な所、DVDは購入して見て欲しいなって思います".
That's why she stopped posting "eye candy" and deleted everything that could be used as "eye candy".
She reports any account that posts images of her for free on SNS.

Those who followed her "night chats" in the past may remember a "short debate" that now has been erased on twitter, with some fans telling her it was good to post images to promote herself or make her have more followers.
One even wrote that it would be better for her mental health to assume her activity was mainly to be "a living Tenga", which can be considered as very rude. He was a little bit angry when he wrote that because he considered that Asami was being a little bit "hypocritical".

It is not easy to be gravure idol for so long and be considered as a "completely normal person" in every day life and at work.
Promoting what is considered as "more honorable" from a social perspective is easier.
Please note that myself I consider any job as honorable, and that there is nothing bad with gravure, AV or anything, as long as person does that willingly.

I don't buy her claim as there are still many accounts share her contents free there lol.

I remember some of those chats but not that "living Tenga" taunt. That guy was being over honest though! I also remember an account claimed to have lewd exchange with her on instagram and posted a screenshot, but Asami then indirectly denied it on her sub account.

I feel for her and I respect all their work as kind of a sex worker, but I thought they knew the essence of their job? I find her quite contrasting in the way that she has held back on the eroticness on social media, but she has become more exposing in her recent videos except the last one. I hope she will be more open to that, but I guess the March video is not going to be anything like that, like it will be mild at best. Hope she is going to prove me wrong.
