Anna Kami Bids Adieu To The Adult Industry

I stumbled upon some intriguing news that I can't fully confirm, but it seems like there's substance to it. According to a blog that linked to a Youtube video which claimed there was an announcement made earlier last month about Anna's retirement. Now, this is quite a significant development for the fans of AV actress, Anna Kami. The clip from the program, which aired around the tenth of last month, seemed to confirm the news. As per the source, herein the Youtuber, discussions about Kami's retirement had been ongoing since early February. In the clip, he suggested that lately, she had lost touch with her work and decided it was time for a change. Sometimes, even heading on the right trajectory can leave you yearning for something different.


Now, here's the actual kicker. Kami has a work lined up with IdeaPocket that hit the market earlier this month. And what makes it even more interesting is the fact that Yuki Yuduru is starring opposite her in this JAV. What other AV’s have the pair worked in earlier? Let me know in the comments below! "The Final Love Bomb", the title of the JAV might give you a hint about its theme and plot. Rumors were ripe that Kami was planning to retire at the end of her 3-year term in the JAV industry. This suggests that her decision wasn't impulsive but well thought out. It's always tough to say goodbye to an actress who's made an evident mark in the hearts of their significant fans but it's also important to respect her choices. Kami thanked her followers and peers for their support throughout her career in a statement published on X. It's clear that she cherishes the ties she's formed in the industry, and her gratitude for them is palpable.


"To everyone who always supports me~ There was an announcement in the latest work of Aipoke on 8/8. I, Anna Kami, will retire as an AV actress with a work that will be released in September. I'm sorry for surprising you with the sudden news. For about 3 years, thank you very much to the fans who supported various activities, not limited to AV works, the staff of Aipoke, the people in the office, and other people involved in various jobs, and Mr. Shido who led and supported me to this world. I got it. It's thanks to everyone that I've been able to continue so far. Anna Kami's activities will end with her work in September, but we plan to make opportunities to meet everyone in the future, so we will announce it again as soon as the details are decided. Thank you so much for about 3 years. See you again somewhere!" cited the actress via an announcement on X


So now, what's next for Kami after her retirement from JAV? It seems that she has her sights set on catering to her fans through offline fan meets. This is a common move for many actresses after retiring, as it allows them to connect on a more personal level with their loyal fans Kami's journey in the JAV world has been noteworthy, and she'll undoubtedly be remembered for her contributions to the industry. While her retirement marks the end of one chapter, it opens up exciting possibilities for her in the next. Whether she pursues a new career or dedicates her time to fan interactions, we wish Kami all the best in her future endeavors. So, here's to Kami and the impactful career she's had in the JAV industry. We'll miss seeing her on screen, but we're excited to see what the future holds for her. Cheers to a new beginning!

Natsuki Kisaragi Quits AV At 22

It's always a bittersweet moment when an AV actress retires, and Natsuki’s retirement last month on August 31, 2023, was no exception. At just 22 years old, she decided to bid farewell to the adult business wherein she had made her debut with IdeaPocket back in October 2019. Honestly, she still had a lot of years to explore the craft. In her retirement post on X, Natsuki expressed her heartfelt gratitude to her current studio, Bambi Promotions. She thanked not only the managers but also the entire crew behind the scenes who helped manage her shoots and bring the JAVs to life. It’s clear that her time in the industry had left her with many pleasant memories with the fraternity, since she showed appreciation for her co-stars. I’m pretty sure her heartfelt message resonated with fans who had followed her journey thoroughly.


"I'm pleased to announce that I will retire on August 31, 2023. Thank you very much for all your support. The managers of Bambi Promotion, the makers who took pictures of me, and the girls who performed with me. I have very fond memories of all of them. Thank you very much!" cited the actress in a statement on X


Frankly, for Natsuki the time had come as she revealed that the reason for her retirement was that she felt it was time to switch to a different career and leave the world of AV altogether. She acknowledged that her four and a half years in the industry had been a mixed bag, with both good and challenging experiences, "It really hasn't been a good four and a half years, but looking back on it all, I'm a little sad to leave, but I also want to move on, so I chose to retire, and I'm still thinking about this account". While of course one often feels a bit dejected to leave it all behind, she seems determined to embrace the future with open arms.


In contrast to her on-screen performances, one interesting aspect of Natsuki's persona is her low-key online presence. I believe she comes across as somewhat shy in real life, which adds a layer of mystery to her character. While she has held events in the past to connect with her fans, this time around, she regretfully announced that there wouldn't be a farewell event. Natsuki expressed her apologies, saying, "I am also sorry that I have not been able to provide a place for my fans to see me one last time or to give something back to you." Fans, although disappointed, surely understood where she was coming from. But here's the silver lining for Natsuki's dedicated supporters. She revealed in her tweet that she had already shot for works that would be released later this year, even after the retirement takes place. So, while her official retirement marked the end of one chapter, there's still more to look forward to for fans who want to cherish her performances.


As Natsuki steps foot outside the adult industry, it's clear that she has the support and well-wishes of her fans. The world is full of opportunities, and at just 22, she has a long road ahead of her to explore new horizons. We can only hope for her continued success and happiness in whatever path she chooses to follow. So, here's to Natsuki and the mark she left on the JAV industry. We'll miss seeing her on screen, but we're excited to see where life takes her next. Cheers to new beginnings and endless possibilities!

Owing To A Hectic Schedule, Natsu Goes On Hiatus

The journey of AV actresses can be quite daunting, filled with twists and turns. Often times it has been seen that actresses voluntarily choosing the retirement path after emerging from a break, whether it gets hard for them to cope up with stressing schedule of the adult industry is still to be researched but most have been found to head down the retirement path after retirement and fans of Natsu Tojo hold a similar opinion.


The AV darling made a noteworthy statement on her Instagram handle that caught the attention of her fans. She revealed that due to her constant involvement in attending fan meets, owing to her professional commitment, her schedule had become incredibly hectic. To tackle this issue, she suggested that she would rather take a break than retire from the world of JAV, "August was another eventful month! Thank you so much for coming to visit us. I'm taking a break for a while. We're not retiring yet!" This is where things become more interesting for her supporters. On one hand, they can be certain that Natsu will not be retiring anytime soon. However, the unexpected news of her taking a sabbatical from filming may come as a surprise to many.. It's a mixed bag of emotions, knowing that she'll continue her career but with a temporary pause.


In her Instagram post, Natsu conveyed that she felt overwhelmed by the warm reception from fans at the events she concluded last month, all of which were fully booked. It's evident that her fan base is dedicated and passionate, which is a testament to her popularity in the industry. Although her next offline event has not been decided, Natsu dropped a hint about possibly holding online events in the future. It's a creative way to stay in touch with her fans while she takes a well-deserved hiatus. She urged her fans to keep an eye out for updates on her social media during her absence, "Next real event is undecided! We may do some online events."


There's indeed a glimmer of hope for those wondering when Natsu might make a comeback. The actress hinted that she might make a comeback around the time of fall next year. So, it's not a permanent goodbye but more of a "see you later." In the meantime, fans can keep their eyes fixed on her Instagram for updates and perhaps even a glimpse into her life outside of AV.

S1 Exclusive Conveys A Major Update On Her Career

Ah, the world of AV never ceases to surprise us, does it? Let me introduce you to Kokoro, a 20-year-old AV sensation who made her debut with S1 in March this year. But what sets her apart than most adult actresses is not just her AV career; it has more to do with her journey and transformation through time. For the unversed, Kokoro hails from Sendai, Japan, and she has has had a knack for performing in theater from a very tender age. In fact, she even made it to the final selection in the Asadora soap opera audition. It's clear she had a passion for performing from the get-go.


Now, here's the twist – subsequent to a few years after her experience with mainstream television, she decided to challenge herself and stepped into the world of AV. For starters, it's a bold move, no doubt, but sometimes people seek things out of their comfort zone discover a different side of themselves.


I remember when she made her debut with S1, she came with a unique charm that set her apart from your typical big time AV actress. With her big, captivating eyes and an aura of innocence she presented a different kind of allure. Her performances were unlike anything one could even imagine in daily life, and she quickly captured the hearts of many fans.

But here's where it gets interesting, recently Kokoro decided to change her alias to Kokoro Asano. Yep, she's going through a mere name transformation which isn’t a big deal as such. In her post on X, she mentioned, "I have been working mainly under the name 'Kokoro Utano,' but I have decided to change it to 'Kokoro Asano' from now on." And she apologized for the wait for her new work, assuring her fans that she hopes they'll continue to support her as 'Kokoro Utano' in her upcoming works with S1


Now, before our readers jump into conclusions, I’ll like to clarify that there has been no news of her changing her agency or for that matter her existing studio, S1. This is simply a name change, so no need to assume there's been a transfer involved. It's always fascinating to see how AV actresses evolve and reinvent themselves during their careers. Kokoro's journey is just one example of the surprises and changes that can happen in this industry. So, whether it's as Kokoro Utano or Kokoro Asano, we look forward to seeing what this talented performer brings to the table in the future. Cheers to Kokoro and her ever-evolving career!

Thanks for another News update. When I first saw Kokoro, I was intrigued and have placed Kokoro in my queue list seeing how she develops into JAV before I start spending time and $ on her content.

Some other news:
Ogura Nanami has returned to JAV now as Kodama Nanami. Looks like the whole influencer/fan club thing didn't work out so well. I believe I remember reading on this site about some twitter spat she had with Miyashita Rena about money and fans.

Any news about Kaede Karen as well and about her return? Her SNS is active again with the description "AV Actress", no studio affiliation yet. Do you all think she is returning to Ideapocket, or new studio?

Are you sure about that?

Yep, she left Faleno since Jan 2021 and has been freelance since then. Also, many rumors are that her hiatus is due to pregnancy, since she her belly looked thicker than her normal slender look during the Taipei Red Expo.
