FC’s Best JAV Titles of 2023: Top 10
FSDSS-610 The Pleasure Of Being Pacified By The Best Beautiful Woman I Can Only Think About Blowjobs Lemon Tanaka
Starring: Karen Kaede
Tags: Blowjob, POV Facial, Kissing, Vanilla
We kick off the Top 10 with the glorious return of Karen Kaede. She’s had a notable 2023 with her first return as Lemon Tanaka then later coming home to Idea Pocket. I’ve wanted to include Karen in my Best Actress list for two years now but her name changes and hiatuses have made that hard. Even though Karen/Lemon has been jerking fans around with her changes, she still brings them in. Her supposed final compilation with Idea Pocket shot up on the monthly charts which she soon followed up with her Faleno debut which also brought in the eyeballs. Whatever she does fans still love her for her gorgeous model worthy looks and fine performing.
Karen’s stint with Faleno as Lemon was not half bad at all. Faleno gets a bad reputation as an off-brand S1, which isn’t too wrong, but they can make some stellar smut. Karen comes back looking finer than ever in this blow job focused title. A great vanilla title with an emphasis on her kissing, tongue, and painting that pretty face in facials. And as a bonus this was directed by former actress Rena Aoi and if this is any indication of what Rena is possible of making then count me in for her future videos. Rena puts together a bright and colorful video that's easy going and light hearted; it’s one of the best Vanilla titles I’ve seen all year. A very nice and pleasing porn video with nothing dark about it. We get Karen in various scenarios as a teacher, masseuse, Office Lady, and finally at home in some casual sportswear with the camera using lots of POV or close angles. Karen gives a great performance. No she’s not super wild or loud. Just giving very pleasing and sweet head while taking a lot of care and attention to her partners. The first and last scenes are my highlights of the film where she gives the cutest head of the year. Check out my favorite vanilla porn of the year.
SSIS-953 My favorite idol was an orgy bitch who wanted to go off-line
Starring: Jun Kasui
Tags: Idol, Slut, Gangbang, Old Men
It was hard picking out which Jun Kasui video to pick onto the list because she made so many great videos this year. The underrated actress with S1 has become one of the best performers in JAV; a decent actor on script but where she really shines is in bed. Jun is great at fucking from giving tight blowjobs, to riding dick, to arching out her back to make her ass pop while taking it from behind. Her video is a great porn with a plot. It has Jun playing a beloved singing idol whose the typical image of a cute and cheery popstar. However as one fan finds out she’s a much kinkier chick behind the scenes. In her time off Jun likes to have groups of old men fuck her silly. This is an video Old Man sex so YMMV but not for Jun. She whole heartedly accepts these geezers with her body and soul.
That’s what partly made the video so good. Jun’s rarely without a smile on her face as she’s pleasuring or getting some pleasure by these guys. Looking them right in the face as she’s making out with them or sucking them off. Jun cares about everyone. The best scene of the whole video is the finale with Jun in a big white wedding dress taking it from a group of dudes. The love and attention she gives them all is impressive. It’s easy to get lost in the crowd during a gang bang but Jun takes care to look at each of the guys to sweet talk them or take extra care as she’s sucking them off. Giving each the one on one treatment like any good idol would do. It’s a great video with an interesting plot and a stellar performance by our lead. My only gripe would be the lighting which is a little too bright at times and washes out the image a bit. Beyond that this is a fantastic title by a star that is running under the radar.
URE-097 Clone Human NTR Midnight Pool The Fierce Orgasm Of A Highly Educated Beautiful Mature Woman Is Finally Live-action!
Starring: Yuu Shinoda
Tags: Adaptation, Married Woman, Swimsuit, Office Lady, Group Sex
I really hope the rumors about Yuu Shinoda retiring are untrue. At the time of writing it’s in the air but if this title shows anything it’s that Yuu still has a lot to give to JAV. Even after all of these years she still looks incredible and delivers in her performances. Our video is an adult Doujin adaptation of NTR Midnight Pool. A pretty good adult manga about a married woman explore the carnal delights of the nightlife. The video is also done by Kitorune Kawaguchi who specializes in adaptations as do the makers of the video Ure Komi the Madonna sublabel who make some of the best hentai/doujin adaptations in JAV.
Our video tracks Yuu as she goes from reluctant housewife to sex loving slut in her everyday life. It starts with a beautifully lit scene in the iconic Pool at night which also features the fakest party in the background. Following that we get Yuu in some sexy bunny girl suits and later on office lady action. A few of them being group sex scenes with Yuu gleefully pleasuring men. She starts off the title more passive and submissive and gradually becomes more and more into the action. Her reluctance pays off later on when you see her happily suck off a group of salarymen with a sly smile on her face. A great title with nice costumes, settings, and a typically great performance from a future legend. Hopefully it’s not the last we will see of her.
STARS-804 Superb Lingerie & Oily Intertwined With Instinct 4 Fucks
Starring: Rei Kamiki
Tags: Lingerie, Oil
Next up we have eye candy galore with SOD’s Rei Kamiki. A simple title about Rei in hotel rooms having sex, it sports some of the best visuals of the year. A large part of that thanks to the gorgeous Rei Kamiki. The red hot rising star is one of, if not the, prettiest actresses in JAV today. A gorgeous face with the body to match and her performing has gotten even better since her early days. A video like this that tries to convey her visuals first and foremost makes it a great fit. Rei’s model good looks and body make for a delight for the eyes.
Aside from all the pretty in-between inserts and montages the video is just filled with pleasing sights. Be it from the red lingerie scene where Rei gets tied up and blindfolded and behind her is the city backdrop all lit up in lights with her shimmering oiled body. Her red lingerie darkening in color from the wetness of the oil. Or in the final scene where she gets pressed up against the balcony glass and fucked. Her marks and juices staining and marking the glass for the rest of the scene. The video is just filled with great visuals and great sex to boot. This stunning angel is all into her porn career and her scenes are showing it. Watch this for some of the best visuals and eye candy in the year.
DPMI-079 De M Slut
Starring: Nozomi Arimura and Hitomi Honda
Tags: Leotards, Lesbian, Group Sex, Ass, Rough
This one came out of nowhere and blew me away. A fantastic title starring two relative unknown freelancers with Nozomi Arimura and Hitomi Honda. These two ladies give a heck of a performance in this nearly hardcore title. A simple duo title that includes some power play fun with the girls playing scenes both as the sub and the dom. Leotards a plenty, we also get lesbian with strap-ons, and some rougher sex that reminded me of porn from abroad. So many foreign fans complain about JAV wishing it were more like western porn so here you go a western style JAV. And it rocks.
This video is a lot more like something you’d see on Pornhub with rougher sex with guys slapping ass and pulling hair even Nozomi does some of her own spanking and pulling too. Yes the girls also get it on with each other and there’s even a full lesbian scene with strap-on sex. Even from the makeup and styling with the hoop rings and hairstyles remind me of western porn. All of which make for one of the best videos of the year. All the three scenes are top notch. It starts with a great threesome that has the girls playing it like femdoms then of course there's the lesbian and strap-on which we mentioned before and it delivers. Finally the last scene is a lot rougher for the ladies with Nozomi and Hitomi giving great performances while giving the greenlight for a lot a rough fun for the guys. Don’t let this hidden gem pass you up.
JUQ-368 3 nights and 4 days . Squeezing Room Service Aiming For A Single Local Business Trip
Starring: Maki Hojyo/Hojo
Tags: Hotel Attendant, Slut, Pantyhose, Mature Woman, Dom
Speaking of coming in out of nowhere. I checked out this video on a total whim and it was amazing. Maki Hojo plays a hotel attendant whose bored at her job and decides to have some fun with her latest guest. A super typical Madonna plot but one that’s played with fantastically by the long time legend. Still even after all these years Maki is putting on a great show. She is absolutely delightful as the playful and horny attendant. Taking so much delight in pleasuring and teasing the new piece of man meat that has checked in.
Take the hallway scene for example. What starts out as a normal bedroom scene has Maki take the two of them out for a risky sex romp in the hallway. She then takes him into a closet as she marvels at themselves in a mirror. All while teasing, edging, and playing with the guy as she gives him the ride of his life. It’s a great creative use of the space and an great energetic performance by a seasoned pro. In year 17 Maki looks as lively as ever. On top of all of that the production is on par with Madonna’s best especially the darker moody scenes. Take a chance on this Maki will blow you away with my pick for the best Milf video of the year.
MIAA-764 W Cum Swallowing Blow Reverse Nampa M Taking A Man For A Walk Date
Starring: Yui Tenma and Ena Satsuki
Tags: Cum Swallowing, Group Sex, Nampa, Lesbian, Cum Swapping, Creampies
Now with Nao Masaki helming the best Duo title of the year with two great freelancers in Yui Tenma and Ena Satsuki. These three come together for a great JAV stew. Nao is great at getting slutty and candid performances from her talents, something that won’t be much of a problem with the hyper Ena and Yui. The girls are cuties with great asses who are both down for a lot of things. The video is your standard Nampa affair with the two girls going out on the city to find some ass to play with. A fun playful title that highlights both girl’s cheery character and mischievous nature.
A cum heavy video with creampies and sum swallowing like with Nozomi and Hitomi’s video Yui and Ena are down for a lot of girl on girl fun. Kissing, folding, and best of all the cum swapping. The cum swapping action between Yui and Ena is frequent and hot as hell. The sex is already hot enough but you add on with Yui and Ena making out while they are fucking, or Ena digging into Yui’s pussy with her tongue, and of course the hot cum swapping. It’s a high energy video with both girls having a blast with their male costars and each other. If our last duo video was a great western-style video then this is a great example of what JAV does well.
IPX-998 "Teacher...Can I Stay The Night?" I, Who Lives In A Hotel, Was Made By A Student To Share A Room With Me.
Starring: Minami Aizawa
Tags: Schoolgirl, Devilish Slut, Dom, Cheating
We are in the thick of it now with the best of the best. First is a terrific schoolgirl video starring Minami Aizawa. A big loss for JAV when the Idea Pocket star bowed out this year suddenly. Both a fantastic performer in bed and on the script; Minami could thrill fans with her acting and roleplaying while being a total nympho under the sheets. Before leaving completely Minami dropped one more banger and it might be one of her best. Our video is a standard schoolgirl seduction title with Minami in her best type of role as devilishly slutty schoolgirl who entices a teacher into her physical pleasures. Simply her bringing in an older man to a hotel to screw his brains out.
All of what Minami does while being the biggest tease and sluttiest schoolgirl. It’s a typical plot but she does it all so well it elevates the whole video. Her facial expressions, dirty talk, and little movements take the video to another level. Not a weak link in the chain, every scene’s a winner. I would make sure to focus on her teasing and slow blowjobs. She’s having a blast doing it and her big darting eyes draw you in. Also anytime Minami is taking it from behind because not only is she packing a mighty ass on her little body but she knows how to arch and bend her back to make it all look even better. It’s the best schoolgirl/youthful type video I saw this year and Minami’s sexually tormenting schoolgirl is must see JAV.
DASS-107 Three days when I met and fell in love with my long distance girlfriend for the first time in a while.
Starring: Akari Mitani and Hibiki Otsuki
Tags: Lesbian, POV, Strap-on, Girlfriend Experience, Vanilla
Next up is another Nao Masaki joint and another lesbian video but this time it’s all about the pussy. This is the uncommon Lesbian POV title which stars the fun loving Akari Mitani as our subject and sexy Hibiki Otsuki as our stand-in. This is a Girlfriend Experience title: Lesbian Edition. Just about Akari and her new girlfriend enjoying each other’s company for some relationship bliss while on small trip to a little inn. Along the Karen video as one of the best Vanilla titles of the year. A cute, sweet, and loving video between two certified hotties. Akari is fantastic as the girlfriend and our leading star but her costar makes this video from great into terrific.
Hibiki makes for a great stand-in for the audience. Picking her was a stroke of brilliance rather than some non-descript freelancer. Hibiki really makes an impression behind the camera as her sexy moans and pants, her ample bosom, and even that long tongue of hers making an appearance. She was a great scene partner for Akari to work off of. The strap-on scene with Akari giving it was my highlight. She’s so playful with it and we get great shots of her and Hibiki’s bouncing titties. Behind the camera Nao’s not afraid to go away from the POV angle if it gets us a better view of the action. The best lesbian title of the year for me and one of the best all year. Give these happy lesbians a look.
PRED-485 A Part-Time Wife's Convenience Store Affair. I Decided To Indulge In Pleasure By Fucking The Manager Who Looks Lonely…
Starring: Aika Yamagishi/ Ayaka
Tags: Convenience Store, Cheating Affair, Clothed Sex
We finally close out our Top 10 and entire top videos lists with Premium and their best star Aika Yamagishi. She nets my top spot largely due to her amazing performing. Alongside the likes of Miru and Minami; Aika is one of the best performers in JAV today. Few match her passionate performing and acting. The video is a well-made and shot drama by Premium and by director Sapporo Taro who makes great slut content. The video has her playing a loveless housewife taking on shifts at a convenience store who starts an affair with a married man whose equally unfulfilled in the bedroom. Turning their boring side gig into a chance for a passionate and all consuming love affair.
So many great scenes and moments. One scene has them fucking in the broad daylight in the middle of the store with Aika and her tight ass bouncing on his cock on the store floor. Or when she takes him in the backroom to suck him off behind the fridges. Asking him to take her head and shove it into his cock as Aika pops out and licks back up the little string of spit she let out. Aika is flat out amazing. She puts her heart and soul into her scenes and it shows every time. It’s a video I keep coming back to and marveling at all the little things Aika does. My favorite active actress today and the star of my favorite video of all of 2023.
Honorable mentions
So many videos just got cut off the list for whatever reason. Videos like SSIS-823 with Miru which is about her caressing her body onto men in public. Great slut play from Miru and a great CFNM (clothed female naked male) like video. There is also Nozomi Ishihara in MIDV-415 a simple seduction video but shows off Nozomi’s incredible charisma and fun personality. Her adlibbing and character are so fun it’s not wonder why so many like this chubby Moodyz babe. Next we have Mayuki Itou in CAWD-447 as a schoolgirl who meets her teacher years later. A moodily lit and nicely shot video. It’s great eye candy of Mayuki in different costumes while showing off her ridiculously nice body. Finally we have Mana Sakura in STARS-781. Over ten years in the business and she brings it every night. Looking reinvigorated and lively as ever in this hard and fast fucking title.
Whew that was a lot of smut to go through. I hope you all enjoyed the End of Year series. Please feel free to share your favorite videos of the year. There’s so much out every year and I’ve only seen a fraction of it all.
