2024 Debut Review - Niko Kawagoe

Niko is someone that I've had mixed opinions on for many months now. She's been a highly touted S1 debut but at the same time isn't exactly my bread and butter. Especially with how things have been lately at S1, I kept thinking that I wouldn't really enjoy her all that much. She was one of the last 5 or so slots for the year with my compromise being that she has the most upside. That is, I think there's a lot of potential if I do like her compared to what I might find with someone bouncing around in the lower parts of the industry. Thus, here we are.

Facially I actually kind of enjoyed Niko. I never thought I would enjoy her this much but here I was, actually liking her. She had a great smile (perhaps veneers to get teeth that perfect) and what I would call a well-proportioned face. I think some of the photos from social media have filters that make her less appealing, or bangs that I don't vibe with; in the video I watched she had bangs I could quite enjoy.

Niko's boobs were decent if not maybe a little underwhelming. They were only D cups so they felt quite small to me the whole time. Maybe an odd position here and there made them look good, but similarly the odd position made them seem even smaller. Niko's thiccer body made them appear a bit smaller just because they blended into the frame a little more. They could still bounce and jiggle but considering what I prefer, I just wasn't that big of a fan.

Niko's ass was rather enjoyable. It seemed fairly curvy with a good size as well. Watching it jiggle ever so slightly as she took it from behind was nice. Some meaty thighs also seemed to help accentuate it.

Niko's body was a really mixed bag for me. On the one hand I quite enjoyed her being fairly thicc in a small frame and her thighs were quite meaty. You tend to see very skinny actresses and the fact she wasn't too skinny really resonated with me. On the flip side I found Niko's body had a ton of blemishes. Every time you looked there was a new blemish you noticed that was distracting. It honestly baffled me just how many there were and it really made me dislike her body a lot.

Niko's pubic hair was really strange to me. I'm just going to come out and say it, it looked like a handlebar mustache. The thickness was nice but seeing it go below the belt on both sides, remain thick, and cut off, it was just unusual. You more commonly see ones where there's just a bit of hair down south as some stragglers, not a full on thick coating.

Niko struck me as a good kisser. To be fair, the video was centered around that theme to a point that she kind of had to be. But still, I felt like she knew what she was doing. I think her great smile and perfect teeth combined to make you want to get in there and kiss her.

One thing I really enjoyed was her level of intimacy. Being able to hold it together when being pounded, stare into his eyes, hold his head, and not go overboard with moaning was incredible. Most actresses would crumble in a spot like that, but to even pull him in for a kiss at that time really resonated with me. Not enough actresses do this kind of thing, that's for sure.

Niko could also deepthroat which surprised me a bit. I'd kill to see a longer bout of it or to see someone facefuck her pretty mouth.

Niko and Yuki work together at an izakaya, and Niko has feelings for him. One day she decides to make a move, innocently pecking him after work. Turns out that was all the catalyst they needed as the two of them embrace each other all night long afterward.

Hotel videos can be very mediocre but not this one. I think the backstory and spin on it got you in a mood to enjoy it, where they became fast lovers and had some passionate sessions. It goes without saying but Niko's performance was big both in terms of how you perceived the plot but just enjoying the action itself. Positions were varied rather nicely though I wish we had gotten a little more of the room given that we didn't get anything in the shower (though we did get a blowjob scene back at the izakaya). I think Niko's appearance was also nice, the wardrobe pigtails with a bucket hat and overalls really helped with her charm. A surprisingly enjoyable video and I think a good first video to get to know Niko and her charm.

Niko's career has been going extremely well. She's been around all year and producing lots of videos, including an IV for Fair & Way and another for Air Control. I find in general they seem to be promoting this sort of cute, approachable, loving girl, both in her films and social media. You see videos that emphasize that more intimate kissing theme that seems to work for her and her social media is just littered with a lot of great posts. They also promote her past life as a chef with a lot of great food pics. It makes me think there's opportunity for something like Niko is your wife / girlfriend with a cooking / dinner scene of some sort. I know Moodyz used to do some stuff like that and Planet Plus still does, and although it wouldn't be so common for S1 it would be great to see them adapt to her.

Niko also has two VR, including one alongside another debut Hime Hayasaka. Duo VRs for S1 are just straight up unheard of these days, the last one was four and a half years prior. I don't know what their game plan is exactly but seeing them take a bit of a gamble with her for something potentially incredible has me excited.

Niko obviously was in the mega film for S1 as well. Always a great sign when your newcomer is in that kind of video.

I came in expecting very little out of Niko, if I'm being totally honest. I wasn't even sure I wanted to watch her due to how much I suspected she would not be for me. I know who is on S1's roster and how much I would enjoy those actresses over Niko. She didn't have the boobs, I didn't think she would be all that pretty, and I had no idea if she could perform. Honestly, she was great, for the most part. I still draw some complaints, especially on the blemishes she had, but I otherwise was quite happy for someone with a more modest chest. She's actually quite attractive and can really perform quite well. I've been really enjoying these more sensual performers lately and Niko really seems to have that down to an art at this point. I can totally see her getting the right films to excite me, and I'd happily watch a more assertive passionate one. Whether Niko goes on to be a favourite of mine is anyone's guess but I'm quite confident I'll be watching her again in 2025.
