ah i worded that all wrong, so Marica Hase went over in what 2012? she was already a performer who did everything, but she had to do all that to a higher degree just to get recognized and even with all that she's a lower tier person. Hitomi who is promoting the crap out herself but does none of the (anal, dp stuff) she's going to get 5 minutes of fame then pretty much disappear over there.
Ouch!

Yeah you are absolutely right, you can't make a splash in Western porn if you don't atleast do anal, you would have to be a knockout beauty like Breanne Benson to coast by, and Hitomi isn't one. Marica Hase wouldn't even be known in Western porn if she wasn't one of the few Asians to take black and Rocco Siffredi in her hershey highway.

Chinese beauty Alina Li who made one hell of a splash in her short porn career never did anal but she did speak english (with the cutest accent). Marica Hase, lovely as she is, doesn't really converse much ( just giggles a lot) so she can't convey her personality so well.

ehh but she wasn't a jav star, or another Asian industry, she probably shouldn't count

Thats true she's not a JAV star and she hadn't previously done porn...however when she started she was an unknown asian girl trying to make it in the industry just as a JAV actress trying to cross over would be largely unknown to the Western audience. So I think this is a fair comparison. My point was simply that she didn't have to do anal or DP to make a big impact.

But thats what I said, if you're really pretty like Breanne Benson or Alina Li you can make it big in Western porn without doing anal, if not you have to, Hitomi is neither, so I agree with paparoach, she wouldn't go far

And I fully agree with you ... most women in western porn have to go the backdoor...l just wanted to put forward an Asian example that didn't have to. Your also right about Hitomi, l doubt those humongus tits are going to be enough.

She was quite successful, like Kobe Tai- level popularity among Western audience. She announced her retirement after a harsh S&M shoot with Kink.com made her realize she was just in it for the money.

Oh i know her story, but i don't think 1 year in can put her on the same level as Kobe Tai. I do miss Alina, she was hot :minum:

Question to paparoach and mightyeel, don't you think it was kinda stupid that she did a Kink.com photoshoot? I think a lot of her fans blame Kink but I feel like she could have easily knew what she was getting in to and said no, shes way too pretty and popular that she could be picky with her offers.

Yeah l guess you could look at it that way...maybe she thought she could handle it. Sadly it seems to have been the catalyst for her retirement

I guess american pornstars are popular for japanese audiences, but not the opposite ?

I wonder if Julia, Ai Uehara, Hibiki Otsuki make porn in USA for US market, how many western porn audiences will know that they are big names in Japan ?

I don't know how the current situation is, don't follow western porn since long time ago, when I still watching many famous american and european porn stars have no anal policy

Good old Maki Hoshikawa.

...just so you know who I'm talking about.

She responds to english tweets from time to time. Here's a recent one:

Maki Hoshikawa is great, one of the better recent performers. I haven't seen someone take so much anal abuse since Akari Asagiri

I've wished Yui Hatano and Shiori Kamisaki Happy Birthday and they liked my tweet.

The main problem I have is that the majority of the translations from Japanese are bizarre and incoherent.
