Shocking Report: AV Actors Fans Uncover Pushy Event Giving Away Used Underwear
On January 15, the president of an agency and others were arrested for allegedly allowing a “men’s underground idol” to touch a female fan at a photo session. The business practice of suggesting that idols are sexual in order to incite romantic feelings is said to be rampant in the menchika community.
On the other hand, did you know that there is a very peaceful “guess activity” community, despite the fact that it is full of sexual topics?
On a certain day in January, female fans flocked to a talk event featuring young, successful actors. In the first half of the event, they talked about why they became AV actors, what they were good at, and their memories of tough scenes.
One of them said, “I was doing outdoor play at a campsite, and an old man who had slipped past the guards came in and said hello to me.”
I was a virgin, so I entered the adult film industry to learn about sex.
I’ve been a virgin for a while, so I joined the adult film industry to learn about sex.” “I have a big dick, which hurts women, so my goal this year is to be able to insert it with moderate arousal and low hardness.
The conversation continued from beginning to end.
The next corner was “Kiki Condom”. The participants were blindfolded and asked to touch seven different types of condoms and guess the condom that matched the theme. Popular actor Frankfurt Hayashi touched the condoms with his tongue instead of his hand, and guessed all the condoms by the taste and texture.
After the gifts of personal items such as worn-out pants and perfume, it was time for the photo shoot. While the average price for a men’s photo session with underground idols is 1,000 to 1,500 yen per photo, the price for a photo session with the actors was 2,000 yen per photo, and 3,000 yen for a group photo with autographs.
Although the position of porn actors is more precarious than that of actresses, and their salaries are lower, in recent years they have been expanding their activities, such as selling image videos for women in VR.
I think there are a lot of girls who were originally involved in other activities and eventually ended up in the AV actor field. I’ve been in a lot of BL movies, so I have the impression that there are a lot of girls who like that kind of thing. I think the event itself is peaceful because there is a strong sense of “love,” or rather, a sense of “love that is hard to pin down.
I was surprised that there were so many requests for checkered photos. Actors are a small industry, so there are strong horizontal ties and everyone gets along well. I felt that many fans enjoy that kind of atmosphere.
When looking at the SNS of male actors, there are almost no pictures of them with actresses, but rather, they are often uploading pictures of them joking around with each other or having dinner after work. Perhaps due to industry rules that prohibit romance between actors and actresses, actresses and actors are unnaturally separated.
Japanese pornography is also popular in China and other countries, and the actors have many foreign fans. Talk events are filled with extreme vulgar jokes, and there is no culture of hiding one’s private life, as is usually the case with idols. On the other hand, the audience can also enjoy the “moe” experience of watching the actors get along with each other. They can also view cheki (checkers) and image videos, and if they watch pornographic videos in which the actors appear, they can even see the actors naked.
The AV actor fan community is a peaceful one, with a diverse range of fans, from light fans and women who want to connect with the actors to men and women who like BL. In a sense, it may be the ultimate guessing game.
