These posts are quickly becoming the reason I find my way to Kotaku so often. Normal game news is nice, but I'd be lying if I said I don't like getting my Japanese fix every now and then.

Rio is a Squirting Young Wife and Let's Have Sex at School? That's informative and to the point, the Japanese don't beat around the bush.

I feel a little badly for porn actresses like this. Not the usual kind of college chicks getting a few extra bucks, but the smarter ones or the ones trying to work in other businesses or industries. They'll never be a "voice actress/game model that also does porn", they'll always be a "porn star working with a game". Regardless of which comes first in their career. Seems like a shame. I think porn defames otherwise potentially talented people more than it should.

I just don't get why it is so looked-down-upon.

@Monolith: I was just thinking the same thing here myself. I saw the picture of the girl and said, wow she looks like a nice girl, even though she is a porn star.

Just because she does porn doesn't necessarily mean she is a whore or a bad person. In fact there are girls out there, good girls might I add, that have way more sex than porn stars. They are called nymphos. Nymphos work 9to5 jobs. Nymphos donate to charities. Nymphos are regular people just like porn stars, but they don't get shit. Amen Monolith! Power to the Porn Stars!

@DarkFestim: I had the same impression. She seems less like a sleaze or a whore, and more like a worker. People almost treat it like working in crime. It's a shame.

It's just like making fun of garbage men. Sure, it may seem like dirty work, but I'd like to see the average person get through life without them.

@Monolith: AV stars and Ero stars are considered a bit different then your average mill of the run US porn stars.

What is wrong with calling them porn stars?, it is only degrading to the eye of the beholder no?. They will be called "voice actress/game models" if they are diligent on their respective field but chose to do porn on their own merits and thus will be known as a porn star.

You make it sound like they have absolutely no choice and should be pampered. Porn stars fully know the misnomer of chastity and the general perception when they chose the role to use their body for a source of income.

@That mop mutant from NES.: I'm not saying there's anything wrong with calling them porn stars. I suppose I didn't put it very clearly. It was more figurative than literal. I'm less bothered by what they're actually called then I am by reputation they get connected to that name.

I agree with you though. I absolutely don't think they should be pampered. They should be treated like other people are. It just seems they get less than that.
As you say, they go in understanding "the misnomer of chastity" and general perception. I just don't get where that comes from. Sure, it's commonly accepted to wag a finger at that stuff, but logically, why?

The funny thing is, even if they get a pornstar to play a character in a game, it doesn't matter at all because you won't be able to see her!

She is really cute, but it's raised a question in my thinker - and please, excuse my ignorance as I know very little about Japanese culture - How does the general public view women like this?

I only ask because in the US, at least from what I've seen, people generally look down on porn stars, unless they're "doing their thing," then they're goddesses.

Anyone care to shed some light on this? I'm not too confident in the generalization about US porn stars either, I don't get other's opinions on 'em that often.. willingly.

@Paradox me: Well. I think the general public views gravure idols a bit differently in Japan than in US - and to be honest, even the girls are way different. I think japanese men shows genuine appreciation towards many of these idols - when in west, many women like her are treated like sluts. There is much more glamor in adult industry in japan.... I think.

@Paradox me: I'm not too sure, but I wouldn't expect the Japanese to look down on porn stars like we do. Sex has always been accepted over there and has never been at taboo subject, at least in pre-Meiji Japan.

That's something you might want to research on your own because I'm thinking that's an interesting topic to look into.

@Brian Ashcraft: Such a shame. I sort of liked the idea that there was more to these women than what you see in their films, that they're treated well by people for the right reasons - mostly because I can't even begin to imagine why you'd want put yourself in that position, but I suppose it's not really my concern.

Good luck to her getting the spot in the game, she looks like a really nice girl (although I'm well aware looks can be deceiving, especially when you're in a business that thrives on alter-egos and images).

Pornography doesn't seem like the thing you'd want to be remembered for when you're older

@Hey_Blinkon: That reminds me of another Japanese porn star, Maria Ozawa, who I've always been puzzled by.

I always thought she's genuinely attractive and exotic looking enough to make a decent living as a 'legitimate' model.

But whatever; As with most porn stars, her poor life decisions are our gain!

@omgwtflolbbqbye:
For legit modeling you need to be a certain height and size. Very attractive but shorter girls or wrongly proportioned girls often end up in porn (ie. Sasha Gray). From what I hear from the few models I've met both industries are pretty sleazy. While in porn you fuck for money in modeling you often fuck for a shot at making money. There are a lot of used up and broken people in both industries.
