JAV New Release Watch: January 2023

Published : February 7th, 2023 Written by Fried Chikan

Welcome to a new, hopefully, regular feature called New Release Watch. Here we will look at the most notable titles I have seen recently. From great titles you should definitely pick up, to interesting videos, to retro dives, and even to stinkers you should pass on. For now we will try out a system of Watch, Check, and Skip.

STARS-766
The Ban On First Raw Vaginal Cum Shot Is Lifted. Sweaty Climax, Screaming Sex

Starring: Rei Kamiki
Tags: Sweat, Group, Creampie

Our first title for New Release Watch is a banger starring Rei Kamiki. One of my favorite debuts of 2022, she is poised to be a big star for SOD and in JAV overall. A promising talent with pretty classic looks sporting a pale complexion with dark long hair. She has a nice little curvy figure with ample breasts and ass. A great set of soft yet shapely tits with a nice medium sized ass. She’s got looks and body but her performing out the gate was subpar which is usual for newbies. In this title she was much improved. The video is focused on creampies and messy hot sex. We get three sex scenes the last being a threesome. All good scenes. Little in interesting gimmicks or play aside from the second using a bit of oil. It’s good because of how good Rei looks in it and how she well fucks.

This newbie is leveling up. So much more active and reactive on a whole. She seems much more relaxed and loose while having great sex. A lot better at sucking dick in particular. The last scene has the hardest sex but my highlight goes to the first scene. An extra long affair with choice shots of her fine tits and bouncing ass. She’s so pretty with such a banging body; if she becomes a great performer the sky’s the limit for this rookie. There’s a reason why SOD is already pushing her as one of their stars. If you waited on Rei now is the time to check her out. This gets a Must Watch from me. That face and that body is already top flight with her performing getting better. Give this a watch to see who might be the new hotness in JAV.

ABW-311
Creampie Ejaculation Officer 12 Taunting, Straddling, Blowing Super Aggressive Creampie Punishment! ! Umi Yatsugake

Starring: Umi Yatsugake
Tags: OL, light femdom, role reversal

Our next title is an up and down banger starring Prestige’s Umi Yatsugake. This skinny little petite has become one of Prestige’s best talents alongside Remu Suzumori and Airi Suzumura. The cute face and long locks can must videos on their cover alone. She stars in the latest entry of their fantastic Ejaculation Officer series. A series about law enforcement officers who dole out justice with sexual dominance. Unlike most police/law enforcement themed videos this can have the actress in both the dominant and submissive role throughout. It’s a series that Prestige seems to finally be realizing how good it is and is using more of.

A plot focused title it has Umi laying down the lay with her tiny little mouths, dealing with sex crazed cases, going undercover as a student, and a shocking betrayal. All fine stuff. I really like this series for how they play with power dynamics. But this title is all about the eye candy. Umi looks drop dead gorgeous. The formal suits she gets with the lingerie just peeking through underneath and the long dark pantyhose up her little legs. Complete with big earrings and her long hair up in a ponytail for the beginning. The outfits and makeup are all on point; Umi is looking her best here.  On top of everything is Umi and her haughty stern face and demeanor. So hot. While the sex could be better and Umi’s dom was a bit lacking outside of the intro scene. This gets a Watch from me for it’s fantastic eye candy alone. See why so many are smitten with one of the cutest girls in JAV right now.

 I Was Made To Be A Girl By My Two Childhood Friends And Made Me Lesbian Ichika Matsumoto Asuka Momose

Starring: Ichika Matsumoto and Asuka Momose
Tags: Crossdressing, 3P, Lesbian, Date

Next up we have a puzzler. Ichika Matsumoto and Asuka Momose star in this documentary style date video. The big theme is our male talent gets dressed up in woman’s clothing while the girls play with and fuck him. While not my jam, Ichika and Nao Masaki as the director pique my interest. And what would you know. It’s a good video. Very cute outfits, nice scenarios, and the girls are fun and aggressive. I can’t say I prefer it but I can appreciate that they knocked it out of the park. Hard to judge to say about this one. If this is your thing it should be a watch. Great outfits, good performances from great talents, and all helmed by a pro behind the camera. The only hang up is the central theme. For the general public I’d say your mileage may vary.

FSDSS-531
Makoto Toda, Retired. Last Thing I Wanted To Do

Starring: Makoto Toda
Tags: Final Film, pegging, heavy squirting, emotional

Next we have Makoto Toda’s retirement, her final film. A cute chick who spent most of her career with SOD before heading to Faleno. She is known for her cute face, short hair, thick bush, squirting, and stellar over the top performing. A rock solid actress with a solid career. We get some interesting play from Makoto in the video. With some pegging, heavy squirting, and the finale is an emotional affair with her welling up in tears in it. As retirements go it isn’t much special. A tiny bit more spicy than some final films but nothing really special. Kind of a quiet farewell. I’d give it a check for fans of Makoto but for the general viewers it’s a skip.

YMDD-305
GIN GIRA GAL It's The End If You're Targeted! ? Transcendence Powerful Splasher X Snake Tongue Vacuum’s Spear Festival

Starring: Yumika Saeki and Mao Hamasaki
Tags: Squirting, Wild, Gal, Lesbian, Group Sex, Outside

We are still so early on in the year and yet we already have a contender for wildest title of the year. When you have a video starring the out of control Yumika and Mao it’s to be expected. This is a gal themed party taking place around the pool. Lots of group scenes, squirting, and wild hard sex while in the open air. Lots of colorful bikinis for our ladies. A high paced, high energy title. If you want crazy sluts being their best crazy slut than this is the title to see.

Yumika really steals the show here. She is unchecked and let loose. She’ll make some western pornstars blush at how wild she is. In one scene she is fucking a guy from above and she turns her head over to catch some squirt flying from Mao with her mouth. In one motion she turns back to only spit it out at him. At one point she even dunks her head into the pool while getting pounded from behind. Multiple times. This brand of wild might not be your thing but it is something to see. This craziness gets a Watch from me. At the very least see what Yumika is all about. It’s something else.

The Slut Wagon Goes! !! Melody Hina Marks, June, Lovejoy, And Liz's Strange Journey The Beautiful Girl Born In Northern Europe, Fierce SEX With A Japanese Boy

Starring: Melody Marks and June Lovejoy
Tags: IR, White actress, 3P, Documentary

Melody’s return trip to JAV is our next notable New Release to look out for. Melody Marks first visited JAV in 2020 and was surprisingly received well for her short stint. So well she’s come back for a second trip. It’s rare to see western pornstars come to Japan to work in JAV proper and not just those cheaper overseas productions. Her title is a match made just for her with Rizu’s Slut Wagon series. The JAV counterpart to the Bang Bus this series sees women going out to hookup with men in the back seat of a car. Costarring the fine director Rizu. Shot in a documentary style. This is a loose and light hearted affair where the actresses let their hair down and just have fun being themselves. For this video we get June Lovejoy costarring too. A perfect match as she plays both translator and scene partner for the latter half.

I’m not a big fan of these types of videos or this series (same with the Bang Bus). The cars are cramped and their don’t have much room to really maneuver. The real fun comes from seeing the actresses be themselves, joke around, and have fun with their hook ups. For English speaking fans this video has that and we can understand it too. With June adding a much needed context while speaking with Rizu. As Slut Wagon videos go this is a solid video plus we get an English speaker. Overall I’d say it’s worth checking out at the very least especially if you are a fan of either Melody or the series. Hopefully we’ll see a third trip from Melody and with even bigger studios.

MIDV-250
I Can't Stand My Silent Sister-In-Law's Big Ass, And I Immediately Run Away Back Piston!

Starring: Nana Yagi

Tags: Ass, Close ups, Doggystyle

Next up is Nana Yagi and her ass from out of nowhere. Nana’s a cutie with Moodyz that has never made a really strong impression for me. She’s become a pretty popular actress for them lately and I wanted to give her another look. And boy did I pick the right video to do so. I don’t know when Nana got this ass but I am keyed in now. This 5’3” girl has a nice medium sized ass. A good firm shape to it while still packing some fat. Our title is about a man who cant help but be attracted to Nana’s jutting ass (who can blame him). He finds her in all sorts of situations where her sweet ass is just sticking out to him. Teasing him. What does he do but shove his cock into it.

From there we get to a pretty standard affair around the house. Lots of close up shots and POV angles, many of which focus on Nana’s backside with lots of positions from behind. All the scene are pretty solid and I don’t want to highlight any one scene in particular. Just the many great shots of her ass in it. It is an ass fan’s delight. All in all this is a solid title featuring a lot of ass in the action. A simple title and premise with cute actress and her fine ass. I’m giving this a Watch. I wasn’t paying too much attention to her but will now and maybe so should you. Nana and her booty on the board.

GONE-060 Erotic Gal

Starring: Minori Hatsune

Tags: Gal, Soapland, Tan, Massage, Oil

Next we check in with long time actress Minori Hatsune. This time in a gal themed video with a dark sun tan to boot. The tan look is interesting but I do like her sandy blonde hair. We start with a soapland mat scene then we get a hotel scene and finally massage one. Not a great video though it’s to be expected from a smaller studio. Minori is fine but it feels like she’s coasting now. We all wish for certain actresses to come back but sometimes their second go around can’t stack up to their first time. Minori was a star in JAV during her time with Idea Pocket. Since coming back she started with Madonna only to take on smaller jobs with studios now. Maybe bigger studios are no longer calling her up or maybe she prefers these lower key studios. Either way this is a disappointing turn for a former star. She had a release last year that was much better TOEN-71. As for this video it gets a Skip from me.

(I do like her candid social media pics though)

BNST-053
Today's Friend. Sumire (21 Years Old)

Starring: Sumire Kuramoto

Tags: POV, Cat ears

Sumire Kuramoto is next with a title with smaller studio too. Sumire shot right up the sales charts and into the heart of fans last year. I’d call her the next Ichika is she wasn’t still around and good pals with Sumire. A thin woman with little in the bust or butt department; she makes do with her cute face, great performing, and stellar attitude her best strength. The title starts with them showing off a really nice car before we get into the video proper. We get a BJ, followed by a sex scene, then a sex toy scene, and finally a two on Sumire to finish things off. Another low budget affair but the difference between this low budget title and Minori’s is Sumire’s terrific energy.

Sumire can make even a humdrum title watchable thanks to her infectious energy. I love her beaming smile especially after she shoots it after a lewd little act and she’s got a nice O face. There’s a great little moment when she’s sucking and jerking off the two guys and she stares right into the camera so seductively. Just making love to it. She’s also no dainty flower, this girl will let guys use her. This video gets a check from me. I like it but it’s not exactly special or great. For Sumire fans I’d say check it out. I am all abroad the Sumire train this year. I want to see more out of this cute petite whose taking JAV by storm.

A Friend Who Moved Has Become A Super Gal And Reunited She Was Tempted To Lost Her Virginity And Experienced Her First Creampie On A Summer Day

Starring: Rika Aimi

Tags: Gal, Tan, Summer, Documentary

More gals on the board this time with Rika Aimi. Another documentary style video about a visiting gal during the summer. She’s only here to fuck her old friend’s brains out over the sweltering heat. Rika is so cute here. I’m such a fan of her cute face and her petite body. A truly tiny chick at 4’9”. I love how well proportioned she is. A thin slim body but busty and tight. Small and busty; a killer combo. The whole gal look, tan, and silver hair only makes her even more enticing. On top of things Rika is in the driver’s seat as she takes charge during the action. We get some fun scenes. One outside in a little pool with her boobs looking real nice. Another sneaky sex scene where they keep their clothes on and try to hide what they are doing. The finale scene has a nice shooting style too. Making it look like we are peeking into the two from afar as they fool around. Overall a solid title that gets a Watch. Rika’s a cute and sexy freelancer who could do with more recognition. A solid actress with a great petite body.

MRJJ-013AI
4 Seconds After Meeting Yuma Asami

Starring: Yuma Asami

Tags: Re-release, Quickie

No Yuma Asami isn’t back. This is just a re-release of an older title from 2013. A quickie sex title about ambushing Yuma with sex. I thought was interesting to see pop back up. An AI enhanced video that up-res the dated video. There’s loads of older JAV titles still sitting in 480p and 720p that could really use the remastering. Why not reintroduce viewers to all the old stars of JAV in high definition resolution. Sadly the upscaling doesn’t fix the original video’s too bright lighting. If you’re a Yuma fan or someone who wants to check out an older title give it a look.

MIAA-780
She Pretends To Be A Friend And Sneaks Into Cheating Creampies

Starring: Hana Shirato

Tags: Cheating, POV, Creampie, Butt

We close out with my favorite title for the month of January with Hana Shirato. Another actress who broke out in a big way last year. Finishing third in FANZA sales behind the likes of superstars Saika Kawakita and Ichika Matsumoto.  Hana is poised to be a hot ticket actress this year and I’m excited to see what she gets up to. Our title is a simple cheating video with Hana playing a devious woman who wants to steal her friend’s man. A POV and close up heavy title to start with lots of focus on Hana’s pretty face. So gorgeous with her very unique dimples, big cheeks, flowing long hair, and those beautiful eyes. What a good choice to focus on her face to start. That face is her biggest selling point.

We get a POV scene to start off, a closely shot BJ scene, loads of in between sex montages, and one lusty finale. All three big scenes are great. The intro gives use some great shots of Hana’s ample ass. What a nice medium snack coming out of her wide hips. Then we get the BJ and more focus on her pretty face. But it’s the finale that takes the cake. The highlight of the film and the hottest sex of the video. The scene goes harder and harder until Hana and the man are fucking right in the open with their voices on full blast. I only wished they got found out part way through the scene. That would’ve made it better. This gets an easy Must Watch from me. Hana starts off the year with a banger with Moodyz. I will definitely be keeping an eye on her and so should you.

Must Watch

Well that’s the first New Release Watch in the books. Let me know what you think. I like this format for covering all sorts of videos I see over the month. Good ones, bad ones, interesting ones; all of them. Feel free to share your monthly watches below.
