FANZA JAV Rankings 2025: Second Half

Published : February 24th, 2026 Written by Fried Chikan

Top 10

Kanna Seto completes the sweep of both halves with the #1 ranking. I don’t need to go on; enough has been said about Kanna’s ascension. Saika Kawakita goes at #3, falling to Miyu Aizawa and more on her later. Ichika Matsumoto proves that she is still part of the top of the top at #9, with her turn to exclusivity not hurting her much. Meanwhile, Yui Hatano’s extra thickness proves to be very popular among fans. A lot of people like plus-size ladies and Yui is proving that right now. Freelancing has been good to her and Karin Kitaoka, who jumps up to #6.

FANZA Interviewer: You’ve consistently ranked first on FANZA since your debut. Do you pay attention to rankings?

Kanna Seto: I don’t really look at the rankings (laughs). It’s not about trying to do well or aiming for a specific position—I just like the feeling of having something rewarding to chase and running straight through it.


Then we have Mina Kitano, who didn’t even place in the Top 100 in the first half. She skyrockets all the way into #10. The biggest change for Mina in the second half is her return to Freelancing which fits her so well. Mina has improved year by year as an actress and looks better and more confident than ever. She said she was going to ride against the new wave of Exclusives and she’s riding high right now.

Biggest Jumps

Now, to see the biggest jumps from the first half to the second half. I am glad to see Aika Yamagishi jump up from #61 to #21, the biggest jump from last time. This is certainly because of the surprise retirement, but Aika also made a ton of great videos for her final year. Very deserving. Speaking deserving more attention, we have Riho Shishido, who goes up from #41 to #12. A bit of a surprise, but Riho earns all of it with her phenomenal performing and release rate. She is absolutely thriving as a Freelancer. Other big jumpers include Konatsu Kashiwagi (#33->11), Rikka Ono (#61->21), Rima Arai (#56->23), and Himari Kinoshita (#38->14).

Biggest Drops

Now for the opposite with the biggest droppers. Drops can happen for a lot of reasons, from actresses on breaks, body changes, or that fans just aren’t interested in their videos’ themes. Miyu Kohinata drops from #3 to #19, a sizable fall. Miyu definitely has superstar potential with her very adorable face and very well-endowed body, but she’s been a bit middling as a performer so far in my opinion. Ren Gojo dives from #13 to #70; perhaps that has to do with her change from S1 to Moodyz in the mid-year. I can’t quite understand why Mary Tachibana dropped from #50 to #86. While Mary is great, her videos’ themes haven’t enticed me too much. A shame considering she is retiring soon. Other big drops include Moe Sakakibara (#10->59), Hana Kuraki (#54->85), Nao Jinguji (#36->75), and Iyo Shinohara (#21->56).

Nanami Kodama Drama?

Now this drop was so big it, that it smelled to high heaven. Nanami Kodama shocked me when she placed #9 in the first half and she shocked me again when she fell all the way down to #100. The biggest drop from the halves. This is where I get conspiracy brain because she has also been vocal about her poor management and low earnings despite her popularity. She was reduced to a footnote in the magazine last time and is now all the way into the triple digits. Did S1 or her agency ask FANZA magazine to suppress her name for bad mouthing them, or does this writer need to take off their tinfoil hat?

Where all the Girls at?

If you think being on the low end of the Top 100 is bad, then think again, because it is competitive out there. These ladies are going up against hundreds and hundreds of other actresses and there are some very big omissions to this list. Julia is the biggest omission and surprise, going from #44 to off the list. She’s been a favorite among fans for years a year now. Could her time be finally over, or is this just a blip? Rankings for Milfs are always on the lower end, as Yuna Shiina, Ryo Ayumi, and Nami Okimiya also find themselves out.

Julia

Not a surprise is Ai Hongo, former #16 and Nagi Hikaru #37 being off the list. Both were showing their staying power, but fans are starved for new videos of them. For Ai fans, sadly, this seems very unlikely as S1 released a compilation video with her tagged as retired. Meanwhile, Nagi fans might have some hope in the future. Other notable disappearances from the list include Riko Hoshino, Hime Hayasaka, and Alice Otsu.

New to the Second half

Some names disappeared and others appeared. There was, of course, Mina Kitano, but also Rei Kuroshima at #18, Sana Mashiro #24, Yuika Onosaka #28, and Ako Kimura #37. Rei has found another gear and I’ve become more interested in her title choices as well. Meanwhile, Yuki Takeuchi #33 earns every bit of her ranking. She has been making banger after banger; she just looks better and better. Mitsuri Nagahama pops back in at #43 and is one of the top rankers from Idea Pocket. While she is plenty popular, I have to say her videos have been a bit of a disappointment.

The best-selling title of 2025’s second half - SONE-846 Beyond the climax: The strongest heroine gets a big cock piston - Kanna Seto

Top-selling videos


The top-selling videos were dominated by Kanna Seto’s face over and over again. It was her and Moodyz in the Top 25 best-selling titles. Mainly new debuts, as they always sell well. Like getting a rookie card, people just like checking out the new hotness. SOD pops in with their newbies with the Taiwanese debut of Itsuki Saisai and Nano Ogasawara. Bako Bus 2025 also makes an appearance at #13.

I've watched JAV for a quite awhile and I must say I have never been as excited to follow the rankings each month as I have now.
So many older talents leaving last year and this year (2026) but so so many new talents known and unknown are popping up every month.
Without a keen eye it must be quite hard for inexperienced JAV watchers to keep up, lol. Thankfully this neat list you guys arranged is quite helpful for keeping abreast of the ever changing environment.

My bread & butter (in terms of consistently good work ethic) are as follows:
Himari Kinoshita, Konatsu Kashiwagi, Yuika Onosaka, Jun Suehiro, Aya Onami (Aya Sazanami), Hinako, Matsui, Hikaru Minazuki, Hikaru Miyanishi, Miyu Aizawa, Karin Kitaoka, Ena Satsuki, Riho Shishido, Mitsuri Nagahama (regardless of the weight loss), Niko Kawagoe, Kokoro Asano, Ria Aise, Marin Mita, Airi Nagase, (regardless of the tragic weight loss), Rika Tsubaki, Nao Jinguji, Rui Shido, and last but certainly not least Yakuman (Marina Yakuno). Plenty of others I follow but I'll just keep it to those I follow religiously lately. Yuika Onosaka and Marina Yakuno especially I feel deserves much more attention after their performance in IPZZ-729

Did Mayuki Ito not even hit the top 100 or am I going blind? I also don't get the hype on Kanna Seto.

Still don't get the hype for Kanna Seto. I keep watching her videos to see what makes her so popular, and sure she's really pretty with a great body, and a decent performer, but she's not the prettiest and neither is she is the best performer.
Shunka Yumeno Sonoda 1 month ago
Can't agree more. Even Ria Yamate is prettier and has nicer body than her and she didn't get this much attention

Wow Akari Matsunaga made the top 100. I wonder if that means she will get promoted to the SOD star line-up? I'm disappointed that Riko Hoshino and Hikari Aozora didn't make it though.

Kanna at #1 is no surprise. One observation is that in the six-months covered by these rankings, Setokan had the top five videos and six videos in the top 10 (one for each month). I’m most surprised to not see Mayuki Ito on this list, both because she is stunning and because she was one of Juicy Honey’s aces during the last half of the year.

Wow my girl Miru in the top 100. Totally deserved
