The Good, the Bad, the Ugly and the Tubby! (And: Film ID)

[jugulear]

.
Hi, Ted_Bundy. (And thanks for assisting the FBI in tracking another with your talents. Why, only recently, I learned SILENCE OF THE LAMBS' Hannibal Lecter was inspired by this contribution of yours.)

The new site for JAV actors that I inadvertently came upon is good for listing a good body of work of many male actors. (Too bad their updates stopped in 2013.) Throughout this thread, and in my first post (where Good, Bad, Ugly and Tubby, along with a few other notables, including Mr. Dignified, were highlighted), I made edits indicating the links for their "AV Actor Wiki" pages. What I'd suggest you do is work with the original page in Japanese, and copy and paste the Japanese titles into DMM's search box (or perhaps even Google). That is the way I managed to uncover most (but not all) of the listed movies, given that the DVD codes are not provided.

I'm pretty sure the Dignified one also has a Warashi link, but Warashi is limited, when it comes to filmographies.

Robbus... what a beautiful and professional presentation!

When I do nicknames, I try to use different wordings from the ones already established, to avoid confusion (for example, we've got one called "Dorky"); looking at the back pages of this thread to see what has been done would be a great thing to do. We already have the one you named as the "Doctor" (and by now, this lovable JAV staple has played a lot more than doctors) - he is The Golden Archer. (As Jack1956 dubbed him two years ago; Kessari -- and for the English, Electromog -- came up with the Golden Archer's real name, recently... same post also featuring Dorky.)

When the other male actors' thread by Nick_Wells offered pictures and names for what was my first time, I was dumbstruck to have witnessed what then seemed to be an impossibility. I just wanted to share Member Samurai79's having recently offered a link that makes me now realize what probably was the original reference for those initial I.D.'s:

Member TU-aN posted a YouTube video near this page's bottom entitled "BBC Report The future of Porn in Japan is Female." (Let me see if I can embed the video right here, never did this before... great, took a while for me to look this up, let's see if this works! Seems all you've gotta do is take the YouTube URL and put it in between [youtube] and [/youtube] brackets? Is it showing up, below?)

............

At any rate, after around the 4:30 mark, this guy below is shown:



His name is given as Tetsu (?) Suzuki? -- and at 4:50, we are told he is "Japan's biggest male porn star."

What are they talking about? I've never consciously seen this man before.

The video is very interesting, explaining how the JAV producers aren't making as much money because some people are downloading JAVs for free (What are they talking about? WHO is engaged in this kind of crookery??) so they have to come up with new ways to make money. One way is for the JAV actors to put themselves behind glass as in Amsterdam's red light district (or as Roddy McDowall in that Twilight Zone episode, the astronaut placed in a zoo), to attract the fans who must pay some sort of fees. The video also tells us forty percent of the fans are ... women? (40% percent?? That much? Wha-att?)

A-nn-nd... I'm adding this thought as an edit... what I really meant to point out was, if the ladies are becoming greater fans in Japan and China, with the implication they are mostly interested in the men (yes, the JAV men, known not to be all that attractive, generally), that means the male actors of JAV are really beginning to become a commodity. Maybe that is one of the good reasons why we've been seeing more of them get credited onscreen, of late.

EDIT:
Got curious about this actor labeled as "Japan's biggest male porn star." l conducted a search for the best name I could come up with (the last name, Suzuki, sounded like a certainty), and one result for Japan’s Most Famous Male Porn Star was in regards to "Manlet." I put the article(s) up in the News section, given the interesting revelations. If anyone knows whom this "Suzuki" fellow is, do let us know.

Great Scott! At the end of that piece I had to concentrate to realize that was her foot with her toes curled.



Agreed. I don't recognize Japan's top male actor. But I normally gravitate towards titles that are all about the women.

If I'm not wrong he is Ittetsu Suzuki and I think he is indeed very famous. I guess that he's one of the favorites of the female audience, and it's not difficult to see why: good looking, he looks very young even if he's born in 1979. He seems to appear a lot in romantic porn movies (I don't know if there's a definition for that).

Fantastic! Great work, Agegap.

(I knew the YouTube video's narrator had made another syllabic sound before the "Tetsu" part of the actor's first name... but I can see now that I've missed "It." Far from the first time that I've missed it.)

Agegap is right; Ittetsu Suzuki has cause to be popular with the ladies (just as James Deen has a huge teeny female fan base in the USA), because Ittetsu is a pretty boy, and comes across as more youthful than he is. If Ittetsu's concentration has been in romantic fare, I can see why I don't recognize him, given that I go for more perverted stuff. (Coincidentally, I created a recent thread on the lovier and dovier JAV; I'm having trouble imagining there would be that much of a market for this angle, in order for Ittetsu to have made such a mark... but maybe romance is a lot more plentiful in JAV than I have dared to realize.)

The second URL that Agegap offered excited me, as it seemed to be another rare resource for male JAV actors. Spending a few minutes at Silk Labo, I am guessing only in a very limited way. I clicked on their "ACTOR" tab, and only a handful of actors came up, all pretty boys. (I am only recognizing Moomin, or Mumin, among them.)

EDIT:
Visiting my own "lovier and dovier" JAV thread mentioned above, I noticed Member Supmop educating us (third post) on the fact that Silk Labo is a manufacturer specializing on these types of movies; it is not a resource site.

I couldn't resist sharing this shot from:

In An AV Company, Isn't It a Given That You're Going to Put Your Body Out On the Line!? A New Girl is Told to Suck Cocks While On the Job As If It's Perfectly Natural and If She's Late, She Must Work in the Nude! How Awesome! PR, Sales, Operations, Female Employees At An AV Firm! [SVDVD-480]



That is one amazing display of irresistible male JAV talent, is it not? Which begs the question... are the women who act in these movies being paid enough?

Is that fellow on the right the one Robbus pegged as "The Dork" some seven or eight posts ago? I can't tell, maybe he's another weight-challenged individual with the same style glasses. As I mentioned in my response, we don't want to get this actor (or his clone, from the photo) confused with the one we have already nicknamed as Dorky, so perhaps we can rename him as TubofLard.



(Actually, now that we can see them next to one another, I think they are different fellows.)

NoNonsense



Never consciously saw this actor before, but he struck me as different and interesting enough to make a note.



I liked him for his "seriousness." He exuded strength, with the shape of his head and look of his face, thick eyebrows and all. Kind of a grim demeanor.



Although he did get screwed, cuckolded and all in Naked Slave With a Smooth Pussy - Busty Wife Shaved and Trained By Her Husband's Subordinates [JUFD-389] . So obviously he could be the kind of man who can be messed with.

Not having knowingly seen him before, I suppose he's a lesser player. Although he does do sex scenes, given a brief look at the log-jamming that he provided with his cinematic wife, played by Reiko Kobayakawa.



Reiko, by the way, was very sexy in this film. There she is, getting persecuted by her main movie nemesis, Dorky.

Came across this title just now:

Father-In-Law Is Over 50 But His Son's Wife Won't Stop Staring At Him And He Can't Take It Any Longer [HBAD-203], starring Miki Sunohara



Interesting. A JAV offering the premise of a young woman who is beside herself with her attraction to an older man. Can the filmmakers pull it off? It all depends on the actor they have chosen to play this irresistible manly man. And that is some trick, given that the "seventy" actors they have in Male-JAV Land are mostly out-of-shape losers.

Whom did they cast?



It's Rugged Man.

Okay. I'll buy it.

[CodeGeek]

Hi friends, anybodys know name of the actor in this movie? (JUKD-887)

He has a great licking performance in this movie.. Do you have suggestions like this movie? (Great sucking-licking)

There is a section here called "JAV Idol identification" (link in my signature below). You can post such requests there.

 

[jugulear]

.
Codegeek is nothing less than magnificent when it comes to reminding members who have gone astray... but with this one rare exception of a thread, it's okay to ask for I.D.'s; for one thing, male actors are apart from the usual expertise of our great helpers in the regular I.D. section (where the ladies are our main concern)... and secondly, this thread is still located in "Identification Help"!

Luckily I have this movie, Ted_Bundy, and it's a good thing, too... 'cause the shot you provided does not tell us much about his face. Now I see why, though, because getting a clear view of this actor in this movie was ... impossible! (He's often in profile in the scant seconds we see his face, and the scene T_B pointed to is in the shadows.)

The movie is called Mother’s Armpit Hair, with the great Maki Tomoda.



The actor appears in three scenes; the "introduction" (where he's sitting on a bench very far away, with the actor who plays the son... The Bad), his first sex scene in the dark (you are right, T_B; he sure puts his heart into the licking), and the second sex scene that is the obligatory threesome, which was better lit, but we still don't get to see a full view of his face clearly. From Scene Three:





So we may see he has a build (our first clue), and a prominent nose.

From Dark Scene #2, featuring the licking:



He's got a prominent ear.

And from the "long shot" first scene:

He's very energetic, giving the impression that he's not a novice actor. So adding up these clues, I'm going to steer in the direction of Manlet ("Shimiken"). He's muscular, and has a nose on him; introduced around Page Five of this thread, and has been referred to several times. I put up an article about him in the news section.

Before Manlet became a blond himbo, he wore his hair in its original color. (JUKD-887 goes all the way back to 2008.) I see a resemblance from one of the surviving shots Ghostbird (to whom we owe thanks, for having introduced this narcissistic actor) provided (the hair style.. the ear... not to mention the dark surroundings...):


[PGD 654]

Those interested may check out Manlet's limited filmography, as pointed out in Post #142 above.


Anyone who would like to corroborate my I.D., or if you'd simply be interested in watching this movie, my 425 MB painless download is still, amazingly, alive.

Manlet is getting alot of attention in this thread.

We've got many of them down; one who remains is Hefty.

Here is where we first made mention. These days, Hefty has slimmed down considerably.



With Hitomi Katase as his wife in Make My Anus Bloom Wildly [RBD-613]; Hefty plays the loser husband, as usual, in another (thank goodness) non-sexual role.



Kind of resembles Director John Huston, with the smile.


John Huston in CHINATOWN


The movie had end credits, and through the process of elimination, I'm pretty sure this is him:



Please unravel that, if you can. No mean trick to pin down Hefty, but let's give it our best shot.

I'm afraid that is a bit too blurry to decypher. Last name *could* be 大塚 Otsuka, but not 100% sure and I couldn't get the first name at all from that picture.

Always there to help, good old Electromog. (Thank you.)


EDIT:
Just felt like tacking on this shot:



At the end of Disgraced At a Hot Spring - Beautiful Married Woman With Fair Skin Who Comes So Much Without Her Husband's Knowledge [HBAD-220], we were treated to different scenes of star Mayu Shimazaki waving bye-bye, and in one (as you may see above), she was joined by The Golden Archer. I don't know... maybe I got this feeling because the Golden Archer rubs me the wrong way, but the way he handled saying bye-bye, instead of looking cute, he looked a little... frightening.

Ruffian



Never saw him before, but given his stocky, almost deformed appearance and brutish, menacing air, definitely one to bear in mind.

From the movie Mature Widow Plunged Into The Depths Of Hell [SHKD-640], starring Kimika Ichijo.







He reminded me of Western porn's monstrous Lee Stone.

You may recall we had touched on actor Ryo Sawai a few pages ago... you know, the guy who got hauled off on statutory r***. He looks like a few other actors (in fact, revisiting that link, we may be reminded of how Gentleman Codegeek had mistaken him for Manlet... and I also found myself in the same boat. EDIT; See end-of-post). So, aside from the fact that he got arrested and that he has a thing for younger girls (rumor has it he and Roman Polanski Twerp are good buddies), there was really not that much special about him.

But I've been running into him in some movies, and now that I know what he looks like, I have no trouble recognizing him. Yet what struck me about him is that he has a lot of energy. He also has a mean streak, which I like. In fact, whenever I see him, I get the feeling that the movie will benefit by his presence.

So let's "officialize" him with a nickname... let's see...

Here he is:



Reminds me a bit of the actor Adrien Brody:



That, combined with his being such a punk ("The actor routinely solicits amateur actresses to appear in 'nampa AV' productions, in which women picked up in public and subsequently coerced into erotic activities," as the article provided from the above link informs), why don't we call him...

Punk Brody

A limited filmography, and its translation.

HOLD IT!

In this later EDIT, I realized... after reading Ghostbird's post on this actor below (Post #174)... that Ghostbird had already brought up and has nicknamed this actor. First in this post (where Ghostbird had nicknamed him "Yankee Hyena Guy," but now we can't easily tell as the identifying photo has gone kaput), and next in this post (with the name "Hyena Delinquent"). I like the "Hyena" description from both, given the actor's weasely ways. So never mind the "Punk Brody"! The nickname will be, simply:

Hyena

His Warashi page. Also, one from Avactor.


EDIT: Hours after finishing the above composition, I chanced upon Asian Screens' screen shots for While Her Husband's Away, 3 Rounds at the Home of a Married Woman Who's Never Been in a Video... [NGD-032]. Upon seeing the first frame, and then the second frame, I thought, "There's Manlet." Then I started thinking, you know, there was a time I would never have known Manlet from Adam, until Ghostbird showed us the Manlet ropes... and now I was so proud of myself for being able to recognize Manlet, and being such a Manlet expert. Then I kept going down the row of those screen shots, until I came upon the fourteenth frame... at which point I became aware of the goofier face, and realized that was not Manlet. Fooled again by Punk Brody!

Electromog is right. The picture says the last name is 大塚 Otsuka. The first name is 直樹 Naoki. I searched the name (both 大塚直樹 and Otsuka Naoki) on google but found nothing useful.
