Rei ... Kitajima ??
Boy, am I embarrassed. (And I know I have Blade Runner's forgiveness, because he knows how often I have failed at the "'Guess Who the JAV Star Is' Game." Or who knows, perhaps I've earned even more of his contempt!)
(EDIT: Oops! Another of my mistakes. Actually, Blade Runner never seems to have participated in that game. So B.R. does not need to forgive me!)
The reason why I am embarrassed is because... I know Rei Kitajima. (Well... sort of.) I even selected her as a "runner-up" in the "She Stands Out in a Crowd" thread.
In my defense, I see I had written "I would not have recognized Rei Kitajima beyond the famous name (she has had a gigantic career)," and obviously that still holds. Yet I'm still taken aback at my ignorance, because I just looked through the old collection, and was reminded of how she has appeared in some of my favorite films, including Early Afternoon Neighborhood Association Bullying of Married Woman [CRPD-254] (also starring Maki Tomoda, Miyuki Majima and Misato) and Parent And Child Of Shoplifting Is r***ing In The Group [CRPD-299], co-starring Arisu Suzuki. (Pictured below.)
(She really has had a "gigantic career," beginning early... evidently ten whole years ago, in 2006, when she was reportedly 24-years-old. She still seems to be at the game... while looking into where else I have referred to her, I was also reminded of her appearance in the more recent "President and Wicked Brats From the Student Council" series. GVG-060, to be precise.)
Now...
Suddenly I have become curious about the obscure Reina Sugano, the one I had figured was the lady I brought up in my prior post. (You know, the lady who turned out to be Rei Kitajima instead. A good reason for my stumble was because I wanted to trust Sougouwiki's "order of appearance" listing of the cast. See, their listings are not always "in order of appearance.")
From the screen shots of HAVD-399 (which I prefer to access from Asian Screens' nicely large photos), the other two women from that movie were:
..
That is Kaoru Kojima, whom I have mentioned only yesterday on the "One and Done" thread; Kaoru has not done very much, and now seems to be out of the picture. (At top right is the way she appeared on the cover of MATU-57.)
So by the process of elimination, heeeeeeeeeeeeere's Reina Sugano (a name that Google's translator often provides as "Reina Kanno"):
Well... she's pretty non-descript, to my eye, at least from these photographs.
(Guess we would need to watch the movie to see how much she is deserving of our appreciation. That is, all porn performers are deserving, don't get me wrong, and what I meant was deserving of how "special" she might be.)
I still can't tell which one Reina is from what appears to be her only other movie to date, DSEM-010. (Above.) As Blade Runner mentioned, the other three actresses are Aya Shiina, Manami Nagano, and Yuki Mio (I think Yuki is Number Three). The fourth actress is the cover lady:
So before you judge me too harshly about being so rotten in the JAV star guessing game, do you see a resemblance between what we know about the mysterious Reina Sugano and these four faces?
