Tsukasa Nagano Celebrates A Landmark
Tsukasa Nagano, the BAMBI exclusive actress must be over the moon with her recent accolade. The 35-year-old actress revealed to her 40k fanbase on Twitter, that she ushered into her sixth year in the industry with the advent of her fifth anniversary, in line.

"Good evening
I celebrated the 5th anniversary of my debut the other day This is also because of the support and support of everyone
Although it is a difficult situation, I still want to enjoy my work, so
Thank you for your cooperation in the 6th year." tweeted the actress.
Accompanying the anniversary tweet is a pic of Nagano-san treating her fans to a virtual orgasm in a bikini-clad full frontal display of that pale-skinned curvy figure. I wonder how hard it must have been for those patients to conceal that boner anytime she was near their vicinity. Glad she left her healthcare job for AV.
For those unaware, Nagano-san used to practice as a nurse in one of the reputed healthcare institutions at Shizuoka before she had a change of mind and ended up with the outrageous decision to pursue AV, possibly one of those quarter-life crisis phases she was going through. According to Wikipedia, Tsukasa made that decision unintentionally without consulting her husband with whom she confessed to having had a 'sexless' marriage at that time, clearly justifiable. The article also states that she was criminally under the age limit when she started taking a keen interest in sexual activities.
Debuting way back in 2017, under the alias of Minami Kudo with SOD's Genuine Married Woman label, Tsukasa has covered quite the road with AV. In her brief stint of five years, the 31-year-old actress has changed multiple labels as her adult career progressed. Initially working under the SOD umbrella, the actress had a change of mind when she decided to debut as an exclusive for their rival studio, Madonna in the year 2018, and within fewer than six months, left the studio and cut ties with the exclusive contract she was bound to, eventually following the independent path. After a brief hiatus of over a year, Manami reappeared under the BAMBI label, this time rather with a different alias that she still holds to this day. Her current stint with BAMBI is notably the longest, on record, because she had a rather bumpy start in the AV business compared to fellow actresses, with erratic studio hopping frequently over an year. Tsukasa must be proud to have made it this far in the AV game, now that she is celebrating her fifth anniversary. She has developed a sizable following over the years given that she frequently alternates between her two concurrent careers as an adult actress and an active roster in the amateur wrestling organization, Catfight Ronald.

"Cute pouch for the 5th-anniversary celebration
I thought I'd use a tick-kun case ... I couldn't enter
There is no problem because it is cute. Thank you
I will use it carefully!"
The actress, who appears to be a self-proclaimed pachinko enthusiast and has frequently tweeted about her slot adventures in the past, was inundated with anniversary wishes in addition to receiving a sweet origami wallet as a gift from one of her fans to mark her fifth anniversary. Tsukasa shared a pic of the gift on her sub-Twitter for her fans to cherish, as it's quite the possession and retails for around 1500 yen, as listed on the official site. Nice present if you consider a possibility to gift it to your favorite AV idol in the next meet & greet event or more so, your partner. Thank us later!

Matsuoka Suzu Debuts With KANBI
In an attempt to make its sub-brand KANBI more relevant to the audience, Prestige seems to have played the cards right with their small-time actress Matsuoka Suzu. Matsuoka who has been in the limelight quite a few times now since her debut last year has a new studio to call 'home', thanks to Prestige. Well, technically the same building, but with different office floors and target audience.
ご報告のタイミングが分からず????❤️
— 松岡すず???? (@suzusprings) July 20, 2022
やっと情報解禁出来ました☺︎✨
この前のまゆさんで
PRESTIGEさんからそのまま
KANBiさんに移籍させていただきました✨☺️❤️ https://t.co/UOZ4gjTlok
"I don't know when to report
Finally, the information was lifted
Mayu last time
As it is from PRESTIGE
I transferred to KANBI"
The Kyoto-born actress recently shared an update about her latest move among the studios, in the early hours of July 20th. Matsuoka-san broadcasted the news to her 80k followers on the platform, while tagging along with the studio's official announcement. The timing for the transfer seems relevant, as one reputed AV publisher noted, benefitting both the actress and the studio, Kanbi in particular which has capitalized its whole market presence by catering to an audience base that is highly likely to buy a movie based on the plot that it features an 'a mature woman' type over the typecasted dramas settling in 'stepsister' or 'schoolgirl' type. Prestige has hit quite the bull's eye with Suzu's timely transfer or I would say promotion to sound more apt, to one of its distinct subdifferents that deals in mature porn. As per my opinion, Suzu frankly seems to give off the mature woman vibe for her age. Take for reference, any of those posters from her recent movies. Agreeable to an extent, as even one of the users from an adult board noted the transfer as 'sensible'.
One theory backing the transfer assumes that the plan is more in context to make the studio furthermore relevant to its target audience. Which in reality might be in Prestige's book, an underlying plan to acquire a bigger audiemore extensivese, in a similar style to replicate what FALENO did with Dahlia. Though, in JAV terms it couldn't be labeled as a 'successful venture' yet. Anyway, I hope Prestige as a maker is among the very first to achieve that milestone in the recent future with an exciting lineup of performers, now with Suzu on the roster. If however, the studio's ambitions don't fall in line with the actress's, I see Matsuoka-san distancing herself from the project just in time with a couple of releases out of the park, as per my assumption leading her to take the freelance path or move to a more established brand like Madonna to associate with its project of portraying older women in typical JAV settings, as she matures with age.
変わらずに頑張って行くので

よろしくお願いします☺︎
リリイベ等も変わらずなので
これからも愛に来てね☺️❤️✨
"I will do my best without change,
Thank you
Because the lily be etc. are the same
Please continue to come to love"
Frankly, judging by the nature of the tweet, the actress seemed quite enthralled with her decision, as she mentioned later in a tweet posted just minutes after the main announcement. Recently, Prestige AV ran a promotion with a selection of her works at a fifty percent markdown, which was distributed through its official channel. Readers interested to add some of her prominent past titles at half the price could do so by following the MGSTAGE link mentioned above.

Sakura Tsukishima Gives Up On Lease
Following the implementation of the controversial AV law that has been nothing but stringent to the adult fraternity in the recent past, Sakura Tsukishima, a lesser-known AV actress has emerged as the flag bearer for the AV community, waging war against the corrupted group of conservative councilors and feminist organizations, at the forefront. These groups assumed to have heavily influenced the decision of the country's lawmakers to pass the controversial law that safeguards the interest of female talents from predatory contracts have been criticized for their actions profoundly by their industry peers.
Instead of the matter, certain regulations have been implemented that force the majority of the AV ecosystem to adhere. Certain of these limitations have also made it quite arduous for established actresses who pursue independent careers to participate in shoots, which could prove fatal to the frequency of their AV appearances over time and consequently affect their anticipated income from them. As a reminder to our readers, the law specifies that a formal contract must be signed one month before the AV is shot and that the announcement must be made four months after the shooting has concluded. The contract contains a certain clause stating that it may be terminated at any moment by the concerned actress, up to a year after the announcement. While earlier feminist and conservative propaganda focused on the interests of females between the ages of 18 and 21, the contradicting new rule now gives any performer of any age or gender the option to revoke their agreement for studios to release adult material in which they feature, at any time.
Tsukishima criticized the legislation for turning a blind eye to the active performers of the industry to whom it is intended to serve. She expressed disdain via a tweet, quoting her ordeal of losing out on her rental contract as she had to serve a two-month notice to the landlord before vacating.
まじでマンション解約した。

新法で先行き不安すぎて、断捨離していくしかない状態です。

“I have canceled my lease. I am too worried about my future due to the new law and I find myself in a situation in which I have no option but to leave my home. Please, I need work.”
The actress further expressed remorse over her plight to vacate the house. A private abode that she had invested into, via a tweet,
自分で選んで、自分で好きな部屋作ったんだ。
— 月島さくら✿ #適正AVを守る (@sakuratsukisima) July 4, 2022
家具なんかも自分で組み立ててたのしかったんだ。
そんな思い出を思い返すと
やっぱり手放すの悲しくなってきた。
つらいねぇ。
"I chose my rooms and I designed them. I have enjoyed building my furniture. When I remember all this, I regret having to leave my apartment. It’s a difficult situation."
In an interview with Yahoo News, the actress came clean as she cited the reason behind vacating her rental agreement. It was stated that filming could only take place one month after the customary contract was signed, meaning that any chance she had of making money from the filming for June was destroyed.
"I frequently draft a consent form on the day of the performance," continued Tsukishima. "Rural areas are where some of the actresses reside. In the past, the prizes and the duration of the restraint were settled upon during the appearance consultation. Additionally, a test for STDs is administered at this time. Only the actual appearance consent form needs to be signed on the day of the event. Going to Tokyo from a remote region solely to swap is not practical."

Ai Yuki Retires Within A Year Of Debut
It's not quite often in the industry when an actress packs her bags within a year of her debut, but with our next actress gracing the column, it does seem to be the case. Ideapocket's babyface darling, Ai Yuki has decided to call it a day on her AV career. The 20-year-old rising sensation, who initially embraced AV as an amateur endeavor, subsequently made her professional debut with Ideapocket as her career took off. When she decided to make her debut under the blue label brand with IPIT-027 earlier this year, the rookie attracted a lot of eyeballs from critics and pundits alike.
The 20-year-old possessed quite the package, with the baby-like innocence on her face, the slender frame housing a pair of petite tits, the succubus charm that she exuded on camera that'd give any man worth his masculinity, a hard-on. Furthermore, the cherry on top was the frequent fellatios in her movies that made her male co-stars yell names hoshii! I don't have two thoughts labeling her debut as a career-establishing work and it did kickstart the actress's career. But sooner it was followed by odd amateurish releases with some lesser-known studios. Needless to say, in her career reduced to a couple of meager months, Ai didn't feature in many prominent AVs beside a few consecutive releases from EBODY here and there.
I guess part of the reason she might've decided to retire this early has to do with her not getting her fair share of screentime or better offers coming her way that might've turned the IdeaPocket recruit weary of settling with doing amateur AVs to keep the ball rolling. However hard-hitting this might sound, I believe that the industry didn't pay it due to her talent as she could've been a star in the making judging by the glimpses of a star-like qualities I could reckon from Ai's debut JAV. Rather, she remained underrated in a wave of talents debuting every alternate day in this vast ocean of AV. Given the possibility that my idea is flawed, it might be as though I'm shooting an arrow while wearing blinders. Since her motivations are unknown, it's best to assume and keep it that way as the fans have already accepted, I suppose. It might be some outrageous reason or might not, such as realizing she had a life outside of AV and wanting to pursue higher education after retirement.

Ai's studio doesn't seem to have a send-off planned for the actress but what they have is a certain upcoming AV for next month that features Ai in a uniform with a bukkake theme to conclude her short career. With Lamttara and Alibaba Akiba serving as the event venue to bid farewell to the actress, AV brand Maxing has multiple farewell events scheduled for the fourteenth of next month. Particularly, the events will have a meet & greet style autograph & photo session with the swimsuit-clad actress, with admittance requirements being the purchase of her Maxing collaboration.
突然ですが、私はこのイベントでAV業界を引退致します。

"Suddenly, I will retire from the AV industry at this event.
This is the first and last event to meet me.
Come and see me a lot"
Ai unexpectedly shocked her admirers when she revealed details of her farewell event as an adult star and announced her retirement via Twitter. We at ZENRA identify with her followers in this situation and would want to send her our best wishes for a happy retirement.
Honoka Furukawa Graces Debut Event
I chose to conclude this column in a rather distinct way. In contrast to sticking with the mundane pattern, this time around I decided to book this actress for a spot in my weekly column. Matter of fact, she has been garnering her fair share of attention on Twitter lately, given you have her figured out by now. Gracing the column is IdeaPocket's poster girl, Honoka Furukawa.
人生初めてのデビューイベント無事終わりました~☺︎????????
— 古川 ほのか (@honokafurukawa5) July 22, 2022
店舗スタッフのみなさん、イベルトさん、改めてありがとうございました!
そしてそして何より…足を運んでくださったファンのみなさん!本当にありがとうございます????????????????????????????
会いに来てくれて本当に嬉しかったよ???? pic.twitter.com/EXoikw4qUc
"The first debut event in my life is over ~
Thank you again to all the store staff and Mr. Iberto!
And above all ... fans who came to visit us! Thank you so much
I was really happy to come to see you"
Having had recently concluded her foremost fan event since debuting way back in May this year under the studio's banner, the IPX-875 actress seemed fairly busy preparing for the same, as one could make off from her Twitter feed. Honoka seems to have picked the tricks of the trade quite early, doing her fair share of fan pitching all while wrapping up work for her upcoming release. Given the gravity of the situation, Honoka felt quite anxious with the way things were headed, as the days leading to the event seemed to close down.
そして22日のイベント完売ありがとう…♡
— 古川 ほのか (@honokafurukawa5) July 12, 2022
作品もまだ3つだしイベント初めてだし誰も来なかったらどうしよう…って不安だったので、チケット取ったよ!作品買ったよ!のリプが心から嬉しかったです。
本当に本当にありがとう…♡ pic.twitter.com/73d6UYX22B
"And thank you for the event sold out on the 22nd
There are still 3 works, it's the first time for the event, and I was worried about what to do if no one came, so I got a ticket! I bought a work! I was really happy with the lipstick.
Thank you so much"
In a recent tweet, the Ideapocket actress had mentioned purchasing her work, concerned that her fans might not turn up to the event, given it was her first outing. Out of the blue, that sounds completely outrageous to be obvious. Readers should be made aware that this was her first event out of the many in line. In lieu, to commemorate Honoka's debut on par with her affiliation to the studio. Held at Lammtara Media World in Akihabara with a head cap of fifty individuals, the fervor of the event was evident as it sold out within hours of launch. To gain gateway access, a certain few terms & conditions are applied. The fans had to purchase the AV star's fresh release with the studio to gain special access perks about the event. A photoshoot with the swimsuit-clad actress, and autographed souvenirs from the event, were a few on the menu. Despite Honoka's prior fears regarding the event, it turned out to be quite a success with a full house.
初めてのイベントで至らない点があったかもしれないですが、皆さん優しくて、すごく楽しかった…!!
— 古川 ほのか (@honokafurukawa5) July 22, 2022
何よりお顔を見てお礼を言えるのはとても幸せなことですね????
遠くから来てくれた方やお仕事終わりに駆けつけてくれた方もいて、とっても幸せな1日になりました????????????
ぜひまた会いましょう~♩
"There may have been some people that I couldn't reach the first event, but everyone was kind and I had a lot of fun.
Above all, I'm very happy to see my face and say thank you.
Some people came from afar and some rushed to the end of work, and it was a very happy day
Let's meet again"
Donning a two-piece in her studio's trademark blue and branding, the Ideapocket recruit had distinctly jaw-dropping similarities to a mermaid as she posed for the camera, before the event. Considering the fan comments, it seemed like their first outing with the actress was worth it. It only seemed fitting for the AV star that she thanked her fans over a series of tweets as she felt overwhelmed with the warm reception she had been recipient to, over at the event.
昨日はアイポケ水着でした????
— 古川 ほのか (@honokafurukawa5) July 23, 2022
おはほの???? pic.twitter.com/0iH4wgFVhV
"Yesterday I wore an Aipoke swimsuit
Good morning"
Even though it was Honoka's first fan event, she might've made it look as if the girl was donning that bikini for the last time in her life. In one of the tweets, posted by the actress later in the morning, she could be witnessed flexing the very same swimsuit from the event, as if she couldn't care less about taking it off before her beauty nap. I don't blame Honoka, the temperature is scorching in Japan lately, it seems rather apt.
By the way, as you might recall earlier in the post how I mention Honoka pitching the event from one of her recent sets? Well, it seems as if the AV is up for preorders and delivery will start latest by the ninth of next month. Make sure to add it in your cart when it does! *winks*
