E-Body Debutante Retires Within A Couple Years From Debut

Minon Aisu, the D-cup beauty, who debuted with E-Body studio in 2020 and has been known by different aliases ever since made a big announcement on Twitter, earlier this month. As per sources, Minon had stopped updating her private Twitter by October 2022 post facing a ban for the sort of content she shared on her official SNS. Recently via a tweet, the former E-Body exclusive addressed her fans and expressed gratitude for their support. She also thanked her agency and co-stars for the opportunity to have worked with them. Finally, dropping the much awaited update on her career. The actress confirmed to retiring from her adult duties last month and apologized for the delay in the announcement.

"[Announcement] Sorry for not being able to update Twitter very often. On a personal note, I have retired from adult acting as of December 31, 2022. A lot has happened in the two and a half years that I have been a member of Summit, but I have been able to perform in many productions and I feel that I have no unfinished business. I am filled with gratitude to the agency, Meryl Streep, my co-stars, and most of all, to my fans who have supported me as a viewer. From now on, I will continue to improve myself day by day toward my new goal. Thank you very, very much for your support until today.

January 3, 2023 Minon Aisu"

Aware of the fact that her adult career would be drastically cut short with this specific decision, "For the past year or so, I have had a lot of trouble managing my health, and I have felt limited in my ability to continue working", Minon cited her deteriorating physical condition as the reason for taking the voluntary retirement. With this, her affiliation with her agency also comes to an end. In the two and a half years since her debut, Minon had the opportunity to collaborate with different studios and bag multiple projects while simultaneously building a great fan base in the AV industry who are now sad to see her leave.

Despite the fact that Minon is stepping down from her adult duties, she still remains active on social media and is looking forward to pursuing other career opportunities. Her fans would love to see her back in the industry in some capacity as her presence is always appreciated and it would be hard for some other actress to fill the void so early. In the retirement tweet, she has also expressed her gratitude to her fans for the support and love they have shown her over the years.

Despite her retirement and having had her SNS froze, the 27 year old still has a strong presence online. She can be found on Twitter and Instagram, where she uses the creddential 愛すみん (@minon_summit). She also has been quite active on YouTube, featuring in different collab videos from time to time. She has also been featured on podcasts and other media outlets, where she answers questions about her career and life.

Minon Aisu's career in the adult industry may have come to an end, but her legacy remain intact in the works she has featured in throughout her career span. Her fans will always recall her contributions to the industry, and she will always go down as one of the finest D-cup talents to debut in the recent times.

AV Agency's Twitter Gets Compromised

In a shocking turn of events, an AV talent agency's official Twitter account was breached earlier this month by an anonymous criminal group. It was initially suspected to be of Middle Eastern origin, since most of the tweets made were in Arabic that hinted of a possible compromise to the account.

The incident first came to light when a Twitter user tweeted about the breach, which was later confirmed by the agency's social media handler who, via his personal Twitter account made a tweet, "We are awaiting Help Center response due to the Twitter hijacking. We apologize for the concern and inconvenience this may cause to our fans.
Please be careful not to DM us or follow any links", apologizing to the fans for any inconvenience caused. The crime group exploited the agency's weak security measures and posted several cryptic tweets using it to their advantage to sell match and event tickets. Capsule, the agency who’s account had been compromised, responded swiftly and took the necessary steps to secure their account and prevent any further damage, but much to their dismay the efforts went in vain. They also informed their followers about the breach and asked them to immediately halt any further engagements with the account.

The incident serves as a reminder to all agencies, companies and individuals operating in the adult industry to pay attention to their online security and take necessary steps to protect their data. It is also important to stay vigilant and aware of the latest security threats and take the necessary steps to safeguard oneself. The recent breach of the Twitter account of Capsule agency has sent shockwaves among it’s affiliates and prominent peers in the industry. Currently, at the time of penning down this column, the crime group associated with the breach have been using the Twitter handle as a ticket platform to sell access to prominent sports and cultural events in the region, leaving many AV fans distressed and baffled at the same time. Although the agency has brought this to Twitter’s notice, the platform hasn’t been able to revive the account to its original owners yet. This could prove to be worrying situation in the near future as the criminals have access to the agency’s followers and their private information and could exploit it as per their liking.

Miyu Inamori, a renowned AV star and a talent affiliated to the agency, who reacted to the incident, "My office's Twitter feed. Arabs have breached my office's Twitter feed. How do you deal with this kind of situation?". One user tweeted that the reason behind the breach must be because a large database of sensitive information was leaked earlier this month on Twitter. Although how true is the claim or if there is a possible connection to the event is yet to be traced and verified by the authorities. The incident has made many fans worry about their own safety and security online. It has also raised concerns about the safety of the social media accounts of other agencies and performers functioning under the AV umbrella. In foresight, Twitter needs to step up its security measures to ensure that such incidents do not occur again. Also, it certainly needs to take quick action to help the agency get back its account. The breach has created a sense of unease and insecurity among the fans, and they are hoping that the agency’s account is retrieved soon. Until then, they remain optimistic about the situation.

S1 Exclusive Talent Drops Hints On Retirement

Fan favorite adult performer, Yua Mikami, who made her debut back in 2015, recently made a comment in her interview to adult magazine Smart Flash, that could be unnerving for some of her fans. In the interview Yua made quite a startling announcement. In the now published interview, the 29 year old AV actress turned businesswoman made it clear that she intends to retire from the adult industry once and for all, when she turns 30. Here's an excerpt from the interview,

"Looking back over the past year, the biggest change was becoming independent. My sense of responsibility for my work has also changed. Next year I will reach the milestone of turning 30, so I hope it will be a memorable year for me. I have declared that I will retire from porn at age 30. I still want to give my all to my day job and do all the work I want to do!"

The reason behind this decision could be quite a few but one that starkly stands out is the fact that Yua wants to take on a full time role at her apparel company that she setup earlier last year and devote her time at designing clothes to her liking. In the short span, Yua's apparel company has been a success and sells clothing that is inspired by her own personal style. The S1 exclusive even got the oppurtunity to showcase her fashion line at Kansai Fashion show, earlier last year.

Yua's decision to retire might have backfired on the 29 year old, since it was met with both applause and confusion. Fans of the actress’s adult career realize her desire to focus on her clothing line but are still uncomfortable to see her bid adieu to the industry in the near future. However, a handful of them are still intrigued to see what Yua makes out of her apparel business.

As her days in the industry narrows down, Yua’s ardent fans are eagerly watching her next move as to see what she will do next. Most hope that even after her retirement she will stay connected with them and that she will continue to make a positive impact in their lives.

There’s no denying that Yua Mikami has been a popular name in the adult industry for almost a decade now. Her earlier expedition on Hikaru's channel stands true to the fact that she intends to retire by the end of this year, sending shockwaves among her fans. In the YouTube outing, Yua referred to her statement from the time of her debut that she would retire at age 30. Considering she is currently 29, this is likely to be her last year filming adult videos.

While there hasn’t been any formal announcement on the actress’s part pertaining to her retirement, her fans are reluctant to see her take a voluntary leave. Further in the interview, Yua expressed her concerns of being incognizable post retirement and expressed her worries about the backlash she would have to face from society when she no longer remains an adult actress.

In the past ten years, Yua has been an significant figure in the AV industry and her retirement will be a major loss for the adult fraternity. Her fans hope that the actress will reconsider her decision and continue to entertain them with consecutive releases.

Fans shouldn't lose sight of the fact that a career break or retirement is inevitable in Yua’s case in the near future and that they should be well prepared for it, as I had previously stated in a column, even though Yua strives to continue her track record of releasing AVs every other month.

SOD Actress Shares Her Plight, Fans Go Into A Frenzy

SOD exclusive adult performer Natsume Hibiki recently made headlines when she revealed on Twitter that she had run out of her savings and was left with a couple grand in her bank account. This sudden revelation startled her fans and left them feeling worried for the 24 year old actress. In her tweet, Natsume urged her fans to support her in this difficult time by purchasing her work and participating in fan events.

"Today I felt attacked when I looked at my savings after a long time for gym fees. I still want to keep working and be at events where I can meet you. Please support me by getting stuff for sale and attending events!"

The outpouring of love and support from her fans in reaction to her tweet was overwhelming as they immediately offered to help her out by purchasing her JAVs. Natsume’s fans have been vocal in expressing their admiration for her from time to time and their willingness to help her in her time of need and it is evident to see that she has a loyal and devoted fan base.

In addition to the immediate assistance from her fans, Natsume has also been tirelessly working to make sure she can get back on her feet financially. The SOD exclusive has been actively pursuing fan events and selling her works to make a few extra bucks.

Natsume’s plight is a reminder of how important it is to have a financial safety net. It also serves as a reminder of how much people can come together to support each other in times of need. This instance could also be passed on as a lesson for the other talents in the industry who love to spend it lavishly, without sparing a thought for the life post retirement.

With the adult entertainment industry taking a massive hit due to the pandemic, it’s no surprise that average salary numbers for adult actresses have plummeted. While a couple of thousand dollars might seem enough for some average Joe, for adult actresses, it’s not even close to what they usually make.

The industry has been hit hard by the government’s new laws and regulations, which has made it harder to be employed. Several adult actresses have seen their incomes drop from millions to a mere couple of thousand dollars a month. This has majorly put a strain on their finances, as they struggle to pay the bills or keep up with their lavish lifestyles.

In today’s age, it’s a sad reality that many of these women have to face, as their talents and hard work have been stripped away from them during the pandemic. Moreover, the industry has been struggling to stay afloat, as the new laws and regulations have made it harder to make some cash.

Despite all these factors affecting the adult entertainment industry, it still remains a great avenue for some individuals to make a living out of. With the right guidance and support, AV actresses can still make good buck and support their families, simultaneously. Even in these difficult times it’s notable to consider that the adult industry is still a viable option for some people and will remain so in the near future.
