You Should Be Watching: Akari Mitani

Published : February 14th, 2021 Written by Oppaira

Few actresses have been as popular as Akari Mitani has been in recent years and I think anyone who isn't watching her is out of their mind. In just a couple short years Akari has gone from someone not on my radar to one of my favourites. Especially if you know how much I love voluptuous women, anyone less busty receiving this level of praise has to be truly special. If you haven't been watching her allow me to show you why you should be.

Akari debuted at Candy in mid 2017 and by 2018 a star was born. She was freelancing at just about every major studio under the sun and showing people just how good she could be. Even at under a year in the industry Akari had already begun showing just how amazing she was, and fans picked up on it really quickly. It wasn't even just fans that realized, the industry realized as well. She had become friends with well-known industry veterans like director Nao Masaki and fellow agency actress Kurea Hasumi, two people she would go on to work with a number of times.

The industry is a pretty tight-knit circle and many actresses seem to be friends with each other but her relationship with Kurea goes a lot further than friends. Kurea wound up taking Akari under her wing as her kohai (a junior she trains) and you can see hints of Kurea in Akari. The pair can be seen together all the time both on and off screen. I find in general I enjoy seeing the casual side of actresses and seeing those that are friends like these two are is delightful to see. They've worked together a dozen times already and I suspect they'll work together many more times. I think their great relationship contributes to their on-screen chemistry as well and chemistry is one of the most important aspects when you pair up actresses. More than that though, having your senpai (mentor) be one of the best actresses of all-time is pretty lucky and it's no wonder she's so amazing when you think about that.

 

Physically


Physically the first thing that stands out for Akari is her slim body. Standing at 5'5" she's on the taller side for actresses, so I find I notice her body a lot more due to her longer body. You take notice of things like longer legs, especially when she's as thin as she is.

Another factor that's nice is her ass. It's quite juicy, much more than you might notice at first. In fact, the first time I saw her I didn't notice, but as I watched more it was hard to miss. Take a gander at how it looks from some of her covers and notice especially how nice it looks as she arches herself in a way where it seemingly pushes her ass out and draws attention to it. I would call it more on the side of a bubble butt than a huge ass but at the end of the day a nice ass is a nice ass.

Now covers may not be the best example since they can be Photoshopped so take a look at her riding and see for yourself. It really does look the way it seems and she's really good at arching herself in a way that highlights it.

Facially speaking I tend to find Akari is prettiest when she has a more casual look as I find just a small amount of makeup is great for her. Her eyes especially look a lot nicer when there isn't excessive makeup around them which is why her social media is full of great photos. I will say that I've been enjoying her face more and more as time goes on.

 

Performance


Akari's performing is definitely one of the highlights about her. She's one of the few actresses that just naturally gets it, and in a world where so many actresses phone it home she stands out by a lot. This is also where you can tell there's a huge influence from Kurea as I would say her performing most closely resembles that of Kurea; with Kurea being one of the best performers of all-time Akari is in good company there. There's nothing quite like Kurea smiling as she's clearly enjoying herself and loving what she does.

One of the real hallmarks of a great performer is the ability to perform during intercourse. It can be difficult to keep up a character while a guy is pounding you or you're riding someone and I find so few actresses can do it. Like Kurea, Akari is quite good at that too as you can see in the clip.

Especially with Akari really willing to do it all I find she reminds me of Ai Uehara, someone who was also good in everything she did.

 

Recommendations


Hopefully by now I've convinced you why you should check her out. Allow me to give you a couple of great recommendations to get you started down the rabbit hole.

 

WANZ-837 - Whenever Our Parents Aren't Looking, My Big Sister Starts Luring Me To Temptation For Thrilling Creampie Sex

This is one of those great risky / hold the moan style videos that everyone loves, especially me. Akari just wants to have sex with her brother but of course that's frowned upon so she has to be secretive about it: blowing him under the kotatsu, sex when they have guests over, or even in the closet to avoid being caught. Being put in all those risky situations required Akari to really prove her acting chops; she had to be quiet to prevent being caught while also enticing enough to convince her brother to do the unspeakable. Speaking of which, doing it all around the house is great to see and they did it wherever they could. In fact, in the final scene they waved their parents good bye and then immediately went at it right in the hallway, moving around the house as the scene went on. If you're like me and enjoy these types of videos this won't disappoint.

 

MIRD-194 - One Day, My Dad Got Remarried To A Legendary Porn Actress - Full-On Sex With My Stepsisters - The Temptation Never Ends

If you're still not sure about watching Akari then maybe a group video starring some of the best is more your speed. This video costars two other legendary actresses in Yui Hatano and Kurea Hasumi as her sisters, plus long time MILF veteran Natsuko Kayama as her mom. Holy hell is that a cast, and if there are any actresses that are going to appeal to the masses it's Yui and Kurea. Let's not forget she's great friends with Kurea so any chance to watch them working together is awesome. The plot was that your dad got remarried to the legendary pornstar Natsuko who brought along her three daughters Yui, Akari, and Kurea. Of course, like mother like daughter, and all three of them take after their slutty mom. You get all sorts of hot scenes where they chase their stepbrother around the house trying to have sex with him and it's just amazing. Especially when it's sex with a cast as good as this, all the performances are great including Akari's.

 

Conclusion


If there's one thing I know about Akari it's that she's insanely popular. In the past two years she's second only to Eimi Fukada in digital sales, which is absolutely insane to think about. What's even crazier is that she's only been in the industry for three years. When she's capable of drawing comparisons to Kurea who's been around for eight years it really makes you think about just how special Akari is. She's got potential to become on of the best of all-time and it's not every day you find actresses like that. At the end of the day all I can say is to give her a chance, you won't be disappointed.

While I focused on JAV full time because of Suzu Honjo, I have to say that discovering Akari has knocked Suzu-chan off my personal top spot.There's just something about her being so adorable and laughing in a lot of videos to suddenly getting on top of the guy and pounding his brains out that make me love her a lot. She's been blessed with an amazing body (her butt dimples are so cute) and face. But her performance is absolutely 110%. When she's on top and doing her thing, it's over.Being mentored by Kurea, I know she's in good hands. And yes, follow her on social media. Her smile is one of my daily highlights.

I think Suzu is in a class by herself looks-wise.

Thanks for this really great article on Akari. She absolutely deserves such a glowing write-up. Too bad she'll likely never know that she's so appreciated outside of Japan that people are writing entire essays about her. I'm very glad to hear though that she's such a popular performer in her homeland. Things like sales don't matter to me in the slightest, because I like who I like regardless of popularity, but to the actress it would of course be a very big deal, so it's good to know that Akari is getting positive feedback for the consistently great work she's putting out there. I've stated in the comments before that I think she has the most perfect body of any current performer, with virtually every physical aspect of her being very close to a 9, if not higher. Her breasts are a perfect 10 for me, for instance; just perfectly shaped and perky. I don't understand this business of great breasts automatically being equated with size. There are many wonderful actresses with perfectly fine smaller breasts that are ideal for their frames that I'd rate very highly, but for me Akari's are as close to perfect as you can get for her body type. I love how her skin also has that "as-if--illuminated-from-within" pale glow of some of my favorite actresses. The thing I appreciate about her the most though is just how much she puts into each release. Like someone like Yuma Asami, she has that natural performer thing about her where porn just happens to be the medium she's expressing herself in (to our great, great fortune), but I could easily see her making people happy with her goofily endearing lighthearted expressions and intense application at times in other entertainment forms. Whatever she's in, whatever the setting or context and whether it requires acting "or not", she just always seems to be comfortable and enjoying herself. Her range is actually pretty remarkable and it probably explains why her sales are so consistent: her fans just know whatever she's in her performance will be quality. PLEASE make a Top 10 list for Akari at some point. If you get around to it, I hope there's a little room for DASD-771. It's nothing too extreme, just a cute little title with all of Akari's goofy charm on display. Thanks again for the article.

Great comment. As noted, Kurea in a way can be grooming Akari to be the next...well, Kurea. Both are really good at what they do.

Do you have any additional recommendations, if the list needs to be narrowed I suppose outstanding titles (with regards to whatever genre might be highlighted) or exotic titles would be best. More to the backlog, JAV industry churns out too much stuff to keep up with.

DASD-476, SDMU-963 (which I wrote a review for last year), HND-718, and HND-819 would be some others I would recommend.

Akari is amazing. I imagine you'll be writing articles about her for at least a decade. While she's appeared in a lot of series, she also gets several stand alone works with dense scripts. She nails even the non-sexual acting side. I assume Eimi has made more movies than Akari, but its a testament to Akari's consistent energy, talent, and stamina quite frankly that she's always right behind Eimi in ranking. Excellent article on an excellent actress.

First off Akari has actually been in the industry a year longer than Eimi if you ignore Eimi's first stint before she changed her appearance. If you don't, they've been in the industry the same amount of time. Akari actually has quite a few more videos than Eimi as a result.

Also I do anticipate writing about Akari for a while. She only narrowly missed my top 5 of last year and I suspect she'll be featured in articles from time to time. I also suspect a full blown spotlight post down the road (like the Julia and Ai Sayama ones I did already). My math says I'll probably be ready in early 2023 (and yes, I am that well organized to be able to predict that's when I'd be ready)
