FC’s Best of JAV 2023

Published : December 27th, 2023 Written by Fried Chikan

Best New Debuts

Our first entry can be it’s own post; the Best New Debuts of the year. First there is the crowd pleasing Miyu Kiyohara of S1 with her cute face and big H cups. Everyone’s eyes will be glued to her pillowy chest but Miyu is a straight up cutie whose also decent performer. S1 has a super stacked debut class but Miyu is stacked all around and can compete with any of them. After that we have Nana Misaki with Moodyz. An absolute cutie with great looks who knows it. Nana has a nice well-rounded figure with performing that can be up and down who has one of the prettiest faces among the rookies. Nana has also been noncommittal about JAV online, saying that fans shouldn’t be surprised if she quit abruptly. I’m really hoping this pretty face stays.

On the topic of debuts I want to stay; we have Non Miharu of S1. Boobs may rule the world but butts are where it is at and Non has that in bubbly form. One of the best asses if not the best I’ve seen from a debut this year. A big, round, and fat ass with a lovely shape and full thighs to boot. A good figure overall with her ass anchor it all. Sadly it looks like she is gone after her personal information was doxed by netizens. Hopefully she is well and comes back happily because that ass belongs in porn. Also belonging in porn is Erena of Faleno the Hong Kong native who made a splash in Japan and abroad with her debut into JAV. She is not just a gimmick however this curvy and full figured lady is right at home in porn. A sexy babe who crosses the language barrier with her fine figure and sensuality. These are the foreign imports that I want.


My hands down (no pun intended) favorite is easily Mitsuha Ashitaba another S1 rookie who not like more others. A tall girl at 5’9” with a full bodied figure complete with ample tits and a nice ass. A lot of taller girls you’ll see have lanky and slim bodies but not Mitsuha she fills out physically nicely. Facially she has a pleasing face with big wide eyes and long dark hair. In bed she’s a good performer. I don’t know if she’ll make it in the competitive S1 but Mitsuha has me hooked. Shoutouts to the ones that just missed the list. Ladies like the slim figured Maaya Irita or Ren Hibiki and her stellar petite body or the freelancing up-comer Momo Ninomiya or the girl next door type Rio Asahi. My reviews also have me checking out debuts from the past year too and there were a bunch that caught my eye like the tall Yuina Taki, the party gal Rumina Sena, the fit Chiharu Mitsuha, and the voluptuous Non Shirohana.

Rising Stars


This entry looks into the Rising Stars of JAV, the names that have been coming up in the JAV world this year. First up is the Jpop sensation to hit porn with Yotsuha Kominato from SOD. The former FAIRIES pop member has been a hit in JAV; ranking high on FANZA’s rankings with her videos selling well. Interest is high into the celebrity debut and I have to say she is more than the gimmick. A pretty face with a smooth body that is both fit and yet has some jiggle to it; her thighs in particular. She also performs unlike most and feels a lot more genuine. Yotsuha was a name I was ready to write off of because of her unremarkable body at a glance and her background but this pop star seems legit for porn. After that we have the double exclusive of Oppai and Premium with Karen Yuzuriha. Karen feels like a guilty pleasure with her plastic filled bod but I still like her and I’m not alone. She’s had a great year; fans are loving her and her high point of the year came when she got the call for Beauty Venus 8. A tiny babe with a stacked body on both ends. This little plastic queen is peaking and should be on your radar.

After that we have a pair of freelancers that have been pounding the pavement or to be more accurate the bedroom. First is Non Ohana the essential Onee-san with a well-balanced figure. She’s worked like crazy this year dropping well over a hundred videos to her name. Non slots into the older lady/not quite a milf type that is so popular in JAV now with one of the best chests around. After that we have Jun Suehiro who is much more bottom heavy. A pear shaped body with a hefty ass to boot; one of the best in JAV right now and a great performer to boot. Both ladies have become premier actresses in the freelancing scene. Non however has just taken up residence at Madonna under an exclusive contract so expect the last of freelance Non in early 2024. Honorable Mentions to Mio Ishikawa and Rena Miyashita of Moodyz; two rising stars on the upward trend.

Best Studio and Best New Studio


They are the biggest game in town for exclusives and one of the most popular studios but S1 only grew more this year. I mean that literally with all the new and super busty debuts they put out this year. Ladies like Haru Minato, Ren Gojo, Momoka Kagura, Miyu Kiyohara, and more may have increased the national bust size up one. On top of things they did their own Beauty Venus spin off, a video featuring a bunch of their roster together, and netted Ai Hongo from Faleno. Moodyz, Hon Naka, Madonna, and Das made a good showing this year but S1 brought out the big guns this year. The rich only got richer. Now a new category with Best New Studio and we have YONAKA and their new start. A small maker with just over a dozen videos to their name, they specialize on dramas and plot based videos. It might be more sex light but doubles down on the high quality productions and longer stories that JAV excel in; taking more care into the stories, acting, and cinematography. If you are a fan of story in porn and/or high quality smut then YONAKA is a new name to look out for.

Best Series


JAV directors Nao Masaki and Samoari get a lot of attention and for good reason but 2023 was quietly director Kitorune Kawaguchi’s. The director helmed some great series this year like Chijo Heaven’s Escaped Convict and Madonna’s Dancing Strip Show; two fantastic series that saw multiple entries. The Escaped Convict series is a plot based drama about what the title says with some hot and barely dressed criminal escaping and holing up in some poor soul’s house. Coming in and taking over their house and their bodies. Aside from the femdom it also features actresses with tighter bodies and plenty of sweat. It’s a series that the director only makes once in a blue moon and with the right actresses but it is one of the best series with Chijo Heaven. A great femdom drama that needs to get be a staple on their release schedules.


While the Dancing Strip Show is about mature women who put on secret erotic strip teases and dances that can become full on sex shows. The fun thing about it is that they are usually centered on a guy whose already enamored with the woman. He has to watch as his crush puts on these erotic displays until he puts himself into the show. It’s a fun enticing series that combines a bit of exhibition, cuckolding, and even a bit romance. It’s pretty, erotic, and unlike most other titles. JAV is sadly lacking in erotic dancing and this fills that out nicely. Finally we have SOD’s Summer Bikini Festival. SOD did a whole blowout focusing on bikinis during the summer; showcasing all of their ladies in skimpy little swimwear. So fun to see the whole studio roster get in on the fun all at once. A colorful fun lineup that shouldn’t be a one off; SOD could repeat it again or pick a new theme.

 Best Petite Actresses


Now for the little ladies. Honorable Mentions go to Ichika Matsumoto and Sumire Kuramoto of course. First there is Rima Arai who continued her great 2022 well into 2023. The youthful faced tiny lady has become one of the best petite actresses and freelancers. Her small slim body still packs a punch with her ample F cups, narrow waist, and bouncy little ass. Super cute face, great body, and a good performer; Rima’s got it all going for her. After that we have Rika Aimi now a veteran actress whose become a solid freelancer. Aside from looking so smugly sexy, Rika is far smaller than she looks at just 4’9”. A teeny tiny tan lady with a great figure for her size with shapely perky breasts and a firm little ass. Rika’s also one of the older looking petites able to pass for more mature roles. Ever since leaving S1 she’s been quietly making quality videos here and there.

Continuing the trend of petites with nice bodies is Mai Nanashima from Prestige. The quiet and reserved Mai is a straight up hottie; a sexy and cute face with an equally hot body. She’s got cute little tits but her ass is the real standout with it being much nicer than you’d expect on her small bod. A round and shapely booty with wide hips coming out from her slim waist. She has quietly one of the best bodies on a smaller actress and quietly one of the better names at Prestige now. Finally we have Yura Kana who barely measures up to 4’8”; one of the smallest girls in JAV with a very youthful face to boot and a body type fits more to what people expect from petites. She’s had a very fruitful 2023 with lots of works. When studios need a fresh face for a schoolgirl they call on Yura.

Best Mature Actresses


Now for the more elder stateswomen of JAV with the Best Mature Actresses. There’s Ai Sayama whose milf phase continues to go like gangbusters. Over a decade and a half around JAV and she is still chugging along strong as ever. Ai was even picked to cameo on the latest Like a Dragon video game. She seems to have had a bit more work done and has lost some weight recently. While a few might prefer the thicker Ai, I think she still looks fantastic. Maturing hasn’t slowed Ai down much. Speaking of not slowing down is Kana Morisawa aka Kanako Iioka. Kana’s been around for ages but the last year or so has seen her become a hot commodity; a red hot milf everyone wants to watch and work with. A great performer with a mighty ass now. Kana’s star has never been brighter and so deserved for the long time pro.

On to the Madonna corner now we have Ririko Kinoshita. Three years on she’s become a rock solid name on Madonna’s big roster. A cute faced lady with a soft and jiggly body. A game performer, she’s up there with any of their Milfs now. The highlight of her year were her two team ups with Maki Tomoda and Mariko Sata. Then there is Ryo Ayumi who has wrapped up her second year since returning to porn and Madonna after a little hiatus. Ryo is exactly the picture people have about a hot older woman. She is picture perfect for porn and the Milf ideal. Her sexy face with a default look that is so seductive. Her body is just as alluring and sexy with her G cup chest. How lucky we are that she came back to porn. Madonna and milf porn are doing as fine as ever.

Prettiest Actresses


Now for the most hotly debated section the Prettiest Actresses. All the beautiful, or cute, or sexy ladies of the year. First there is Yuki Takeuchi of Madonna. Yuki saw a big glow up this year. Growing out her hair, tanning more, and toning up her body to boot. Her smooth complexion, pretty eyes, big mouth, and those come hither plump lips. Yuki has become a stunner. Premium’s loss is her gain. Following up we have Minano of SOD. I was lukewarm on Minamo at first but I’ve done a hard 180 on her. Partly for her charm, personality, and that firm booty of her but mainly for that face. Her pale complexion, thick black brows, tall forehead, and those beautiful eyes. If she goes back to Gravure modeling I’ll be fine with that. Minamo’s just great eye candy.

Rena Miyashita is my next pick. The upstart from Moodyz is as outspoken as she is pretty. This thin little lady has a long nose, distinct cheekbones, and big far apart eyes with a great sense of style. With a face fit for Kpop, Rena is a dainty beauty that brings up the phrase “too pretty for porn”. Her performing and videos might not be the best but man is she easy on the eyes. Finally we have her fellow Moodyz star Mio Ishikawa. Rena’s been good for them but Mio is the superstar for Moodyz. Two years in she is their most popular and best selling name. Pretty eyes, an adoring smile, and the cutest dimpled cheeks. The ultimate girl next door type; Mio has looks that are pleasing everyone. A shoutout to Aka Asuka aka Nagi Hikaru whose going through her own glow up and the criminally overlooked cutie Itsuha.

Best Ass


This was the hardest category of them all. You know I like the booty and there’s so many of them worth talking about. Honorable mentions go to Hana Shirato and Non Miharu; two ladies who deserve to be on the list if not for the fact that they are both MIA right now. I had to cut off so many names. I could keep going with Minamo, Sumire Kurokawa, Erika Ozaki, or Nana Yagi. So many butts so little time. Now for the best ass and we start with the best of them all Mizuki Yayoi. She lives up to the hype with her incredible ass. Big, round, fat, and bouncy; a meaty ass that gets plenty of attention with the year she’s had. Mizuki’s recently lost some weight so say good bye to some of that size. Still 2023 was the Year of Mizuki’s ass. Another freelancer who had a great 2023 was Sora Amakawa. A name and butt that finally got their due. Sora’s ass is so great because of the frame it’s one. She’s a skinny lanky lady with a thin body and yet that ass is banging. A round little bubble butt with plenty of bouncy. Proving that great asses can come from all sizes.

Next we check out the rare great ass from S1 with Jun Kasui. Jun’s a great name flying under the radar there and flying with one heck of a booty. A medium sized firm tushy with jutting hips from her narrow waist. A pale skinned ass that she knows how to work and arch. Another arching pro like Yuu Shinoda or Kana Yume. A name and butt that deserves more attention. Finally we give the nod to Minami Aizawa of Idea Pocket. The last time she’s eligible for any award with her retirement. Despite retiring so suddenly Minami’s had a good year. She has one of the best small asses I’ve ever seen. Small but so round and bouncy with great little legs. I would take her little ass over a lot bigger bums. It’s a butt she and fans have come to appreciate more and more over the years and has become her best physical point. We say goodbye to those cute little cheeks.

Best Boobs


Now for the titties; the upper decks. Honorable mentions go to Rima Arai with her bouncy uni-boob and Ria Yamate with her gorgeous looking tits. 2023 also saw the entry of ton of stacked debuts. This year you can look to Momona Koibuchi with her massive M cup milkers. The 2022 debut has blossomed into one of SOD’s most promising newbies and her big creamy chest is a big part of it. Huge, heavy, low hanging tits that are so very soft. Even as someone who isn’t into huge tits; Momona’s pair has won me over and I’m not alone. These plumpy tits are going places. We move down sizes with Non Ohana. Non’s tits being a big reason why she’s so loved right now. Lovely F cups that are just so pleasing to look at. Milky soft breasts with pretty pink areolas. A great shape that comes to a nice point at her nipples. A perfect handful.

It’s not all about size. Sure most like them big but small ones are just as nice. Few nicer than Rio Kugiyama of Madonna. Rio may be small but she packs a lot of fun in her chest and ass. Up top with her little E cups; perky tits that hang on her small frame so well. Shapely and so very bouncy. I’m always so surprised when I see Rio. So much fun on such a little lady. Fans of more modest chest should look to Rio. Finally we cap off with some bolt-ons with Karen Yuzuriha. Her great year has been in part thanks to her sizable war chest. Karen’s got one of the best boob jobs in JAV (that we are aware of). Big ol boobs pumps right onto her little body. Plump ass tiddies that have a great shape and bounce to them. Fake as heck and I would have it any other way.

Best Hardcore Actresses


Exclusives and freelancers in the mainstream most all of the love but these ladies are doing the harder work. This new category showcases some of the Best Hardcore Actresses right now. Ladies we’ve highlighted in the past as Hidden gems like Mahina Nagai, Ayaka Mochizuki, or Hana Kano. These days you have the likes of Akari Niimura as one of the best names in hardcore. A full figure woman who oozes with sex and sensuality. She has no problem with most genres. A big ass that likes to play it rough or do anal. For those into more hardcore genres; Akari should be on that shortlist. A rising new name in hardcore has been Uni Shiokawa; a 2022 debut who started right out with the hard stuff. She’s skinny lass whose a big sub that loves getting pounded hard or deepthroated. Big into bondage and getting bound up she also had a great anal title this year too. For hardcore fans this will not be the last time you hear about her.

A lot of these ladies become hardcore actresses later on in their career like with these two names next. There is the innocent faced Maika Hiizumi whose only innocent on the surface and has become a deep throating BJ specialist as time has gone on. Letting guys stick it in deep and face fuck her pretty little face. There is also Kozue Minami a name I never thought I’d see become a hardcore actress when I first reviewed her. A pretty face with a slim and skinny figure; Kozue has jumped right into the deep end with BDSM, femdom, deepthroating, and rough sex title but best of all have been her anal works from this year. This skinny babe looks great getting stuffed from back there and does so with a big smile. It's not often but I am looking forward for more anal sex titles from Kozue.

Western Corner

Best Pornstars

Finally the Western Corner, the one time of year I talk about western porn here. We start with the some of the best names in porn with ladies like the Russian Jia Lissa. The redhead has become one of the top talents coming out of Europe. A porcelain skinned babe with model good looks whose also a great performer while packing one heck of an ass down below. This girl’s got a stealth dump truck hiding underneath. A big, fat, and shapely ass that bounces and jiggles like any other. After that there’s the lovely Kay Lovely a hot blonde with a big face and a great body that fit and full figured all over; great tits and ass on a very in shape bod. The best thing about Kay in my opinion though is her fine performing with that silky smooth voice. A soft and cute voice that she uses to great effect. At her best in slower intimate videos, ASMR type scenes, and all things VR. Finally we have the alt girl Vanessa Vega covered in tattoos and piercings with a nice ass. Vanessa is unlike her outer looks; much more spunky, bubbly, and lively. A cute chick with a whole of energy as she does tattoos. A fantastic performer whose gained a Best Actress nomination with AVN 2024.

Best Starlets 


For the new Starlets we have lots of promising new names and faces. The biggest crowd pleaser is probably going to be Scarlett Alexis. A beautiful face with a nice ample chest but it’s her voice that gets me. A much deeper, sexier, seductive voice than you’d ever expect from her pretty little face. She’s already netted Best Actress and Best New Starlet nominations with AVN too. Then we have Molly Little who fits that petite blonde spinner type to a T. A super cute little blonde with a youthful face. Molly sits right in with fans of girls like Kenzie Reeves, Piper Perri, or Lily Larimar. Her big round eyes are easy to get lost in.

Finally we get to the equally adorable Layla Jenner. Another petite whose got a bit more in the body department. Layla is a dead ringer for Emily Willis to me. If you liked Emily, which a lot of people did, chances are you’ll like Layla. I would have also included Elle Lee if not for the fact that she’s already retired from mainstream porn (a growing trend in western). Elle could’ve been a huge star in my opinion with her face, body, and performing all being top notch. Potentially the next big Asian pornstar since Vina Sky, Lulu Chu, or Rae Lil Black.

That is all from me today folks. Feel free to share your favorites this year from any category. Your favorite boobs, Milfs, series and so on below. Look out for more of our End of Year series with the Best Actresses of 2023 coming up.
