Hello JAV fans, this is my spotlight on the one and only Riona Minami aka Riona Kobayashi, Riona South. My favorite short and petite JAV actress, she absolutely deserves all her fame and success. Riona is a JAV pro, her career spanning ten years and there isn't an ending in sight. I get turned on the instant I see her face, I love her. I think she's the wildest JAV actress I have seen honestly. She does some...fucking crazy things. Some of which, you will just have to see for yourself if you search her entire history. Hundreds of titles will show you why she is one of the greats. I ask you. Take one look at her IG. Just one... https://www.instagram.com/MINARIO_OFFICIAL/

Riona's looks, like fucking EVERYONE IN JAV, have only gotten better and better looking every year. How the fuck do they stay so cute, and continue to become cuter? I'm asking for a friend..!

I prefer the Riona looks post debut era (left) When she matured a little and found her signature look all the way up until the present is my favorite look (right). 

Now, her body ratings are not as high as some, but her overall "looks" are higher than most at the same time. I'm sure some and many offer different opinions. I personally think she is perfect if you want a super cute face with a short, sometimes adorably short thicker body. Again, I love it. I also feel that most of you out there either know all about her, or not at all! Possibly overshadowed by more popular JAV with different bodies? I'm not sure. 

I consider her one of the greats up there with Ai Uehara and Julia. You may disagree, and that's okay. I hope this entry will help new fans find her, and give her proper homage, as I have been a huge fan of Riona for years, most of her career since I found her.

Here are my top 5 favorite "go-to" releases by Riona:

5. She's Sort of a Shy Lady and Her Body Hasn't Been Broken in Yet, But When She Gets Banged She Starts to Come Like Crazy HODV-20745

This is my favorite debut-era release of Riona. She's rocking lighter brown hair and looks quite different. Extra points of the two side pigtails with cute hairbands. This is obviously a great one to watch if want to see the softer sweeter side of Riona. She's very innocent here, and you can bet there this is not a hardcore fucking. But it's sexy. She acts like a sweetheart. I also chose this because I found it to be one of the simpler titles. It's very straightforward, but has a good amount of scenes. 

It's worth a watch for the masturbation scene with various toys. The reason is it really does seem like her first self fuck session on camera. Another scene worth mentioning is the oil scene where she sucks off two lucky guys. Her acting here I think is subtle and very sensual. She acts really turned on while rubbing herself near the end of the scene, while two guys jack off watching her before they cum all over her face.  This has such a cute, GF experience and a personal vibe to it. 

4.  Very Naughty Innocent Wife, Having a Beautiful Respectable Countenance and Yet Brought to Life Through Perverted Play That Makes Her Tremble From Blissful Pleasure MACB-019

Well here's is the opposite of the previous title! This is a later release, where Riona looks like she does for the majority of her films in my opinion.  Actually I am not convinced that she is the dominatrix type. Even after watching her in this.

I would describe her performance as an adorable tryout. Yes, it did seem natural. She uses her boots and does some face sitting, but I think she is mostly amused by it all more than anything. I did pick this release for Riona's outfit in this, a dominatrix shiny PVC vinyl bodysuit complete with gloves. Although I'm not into dominatrices in general, I love the look. I would love for Riona to sit on my face wearing this. In this scene she cums using a vibrator, where the guy's face is inches away.  Right after her squirt he gets to lick up her pussy. 

Annoyingly, there is only one scene in this fucking release where she is wearing this outfit.  It's worth it but still.  The other scenes seem to have nothing to do with it either, very random and boring in comparison.

3.  Lesbian Chaos, You Can Bet Money or Your Body BBAN-314

Now here I found her to be a little meaner. And it's sexy as fuck. Do you know this parody? I picked specifically because I liked Riona's look here. I think she fit the mean character perfectly, along with the blue eyes, blue lip gloss and unique blonde hairstyle.

I don't think this is the best parody I have ever seen.  I also don't think it's the best JAV ever either.  But I suppose most JAV releases have their positives and negatives.

This one still is a favorite, all because of Riona Minami. While I was disappointed in the most of the other other characters, Riona lived up to all my expectations here. First, I am a sucker for any story-based JAV. Secondly, it's a complete lesbian JAV with a unique story and uniforms. And while I wasn't as interested in most of the other JAV actress's curvy bodies, the fucking was incredible in this one. 

I was more than happy to see ballgags, squirting, lots of screams and restraints. What also sold me was my favorite toy to see in lesbian JAV, double ended dildos. I fucking love JAV girls fucking themselves with jelly see-through shiny rubbery dildos. I hate those looking realistic ones. I want to see these actresses use something ridiculously girly and feminine, again that is just me. These girls are all very similar physically. If you are really in the mood to see 4 shorter, curvier JAV lesbians in a kinky setting, please watch. [Extra points for all of them, KEEPING THE FUCKING OUTFIT ON THE ENTIRE TIME. Actually, that is very surprising! But, I wanted to see even more scenes. In the end it did just seem like a giant orgy, I think there could have been much more individual scenes. It was fucking hot, it just wasn't creative, and there was a lot of room to be creative I'm telling you. Kind of a waste of potential.

2. Slave Room 02 GKI-008

Just look at this fucking jacket cover. You know it's going to be good. The amount of sex acts they fit into this two-hour release is....admirable.  Anything you could want to see these two JAV cuties do, you will see them do here.

I really enjoyed the mood of this one.  Both Cocoa Aisu and Riona act upset and basically crying nonstop. How can I put this, they don't look happy with what the guys are doing at all the entire time. They perform almost every trick the guys want. This release has restraints, endless sex toys, squirting, cum swapping, and great outfits.  The sex is unreal, you just see them do everything. Some of my favorite moments were when both girls were giving blowjobs and holding vibrators on them.  I love to hear moaning and crying during BJ's.

Possibly the most satisfying scene here was the last, both girls finally fuck each other. Consistent with the rest of the release, both girls are acting upset about doing all of this, it's fucking great. Also, I would not have put this on the list if these two girls didn't directly do something actually lesbian.

I can't tell you how many times in JAV where there are multiple women in the scene and they never touch. Riona climbs on top of Cocoa, who is on all fours, a double dildo is inserted in their pussies. Next a strong-looking vibrator is attached held against the dildo, making them both scream.  Also during this time, Riona shifts backward a little and kind of fucks Aiso, using the double dildo as she would a strap on. It's awesome to watch. Plus, before this scene, they both stand and hold a vibrator against themselves together, all while remaining standing. Those are two things right there that I haven't seen in JAV before. 

I can't say much about Cocoa herself, I am always looking at Riona. But she is thick and cute. This is worth it just for all the good sex in it, how could any JAV fan watch this and not love it?

1. She's in Prep School and Sucks On Cocks KV-172

I wish there were more of this series.  What the hell happened, why did they stop making these? Personally, I think that if you choose only one JAV to see what Riona Minami is all about, it's this one. The experience you get in this release is worth every second of your time. This is only of my favorite JAV's of all time when it comes to a complete BJ themed release. It's a perfect HD POV close-up and detailed masterpieces of the featured model. There are no fucking negatives, only positives here.

First of all, you get Riona in a beautiful maid outfit. You don't just get POV, but you multiple angles. She looks into your eyes, while she sucks a variety of ways, slow to aggressive. We get to see multiple outfit changes too. I thought I loved her maid costume the most, then I saw her in her black school uniform costume wow.  She keeps the outfit on and doesn't strip naked. 

A unique ending is always included with many of these in the series. At the end of filming, when the model is dressed normally and about to leave it seems, she takes one more load on her face before she walks back onto the street. I love JAV. 

Again, this knights visual series provides the best POV experiences in JAV. Also, I think this is where Riona looks her absolute cutest.  Maybe this was her prime, (even though she keeps getting fucking hotter) if that makes sense. Who cares! Watch this sample, you see what I mean!

Conclusion:

Riona Minami has some of the best eyes in JAV.  It's hard to explain.. They really look like sad tear drops sometimes, but not in a sharp feature way.  It's the expression, she has what I call "sad eyebrows" that are high on the inside and point down towards the outside. So adorable, and is important to me since I look at model's faces so much during the JAV.  That's not all, her voice is very small. It's dainty, and complete with a lot of giggles. Her smile will make you smile.

Riona does it all. If you look through her hundreds of movies, it seems like there is nothing she won't do. If you're looking for very VERY rough dark bondage, look into the dozens she has to offer. It's way wilder than normal bondage if you ask me. 

Frustratingly and finally, she seems to do mostly only VR these days, and that I am not the biggest fan of VR itself. These are two highly recommended and excellent reads about VR in JAV:
