I'm not sure what your or L4verra mean by traditional JAV idol. I'm guessing the distinction is those who are exclusively contracted to studios and those who aren't? Interracial JAV vids, where a black male does it with a Japanese female, do exist. The actresses you've previously mentioned are not unpopular by any means with those who are familiar with JAV. Yuka Osawa was madly popular and at the height of her popularity, she flew out to America to do 2 interracial vids with American male and female pornstars. But there are a number of factors that come into play for each of them. For one, at the time, they were freelancers, not tied down to just one studio and can film as many JAV's as they want, with studios who would film interracial. Secondly, because of their freelance status, they're not Muscats, and when they made those vids, it wasn't with AV studios that finance and back the Muscats. It's simple, you won't see a true interracial vid with any current Muscat members because of the studios they're with. At the same time, not being a Muscat doesn't limit an actress from being wildly popular e.g. Yuka Osawa, Tsubomi, JULIA, Cocomi Naruse...
Please regard the fact that this is all personal opinion. No two people's views on a particular subject can be the same at times.
What I mean by non-traditional JAV idols here is that, well,
if you can see everything without censorship, than no that does not mean I view that lady as an AV idol. Best example of this is Maria Ozawa. Even though she's widely regarded as a top AV idol, there's no censorship in some of her photos and videos. You might view her as an AV idol whether or not there's censorship, but I don't. And no, Acky's leaked photos do not count, since, well, they were
leaked. Not legitimately published by the studio is what I mean. Simply put, in my opinion, censorship = AV idol. No censorship = porn star.
I'm not speaking about AV idols from way back in the day (80's and 90's) either. Since I only got interested in the AV industry from as late as 2009, I don't really have much of a grasp on what happened with AV idols in the past, what they did in terms of video material, and a myriad of other things. If anything, Yuma Asami was the
first AV idol who caught my eye. And no, as you may know she wasn't from the 80's or 90's.
And no, an AV idol does
not have to be an Ebisu Muscat to be considered a top AV idol in my book. I think Nana Ogura, Kokomi Naruse, Kana Yume and Asuka Hoshino have something to say about that. Plus, an AV idol can have her fair share of high-level fame even if she resigned from the 'Cats. Cocomi Sakura, Risa Kasumi, Miyuki Yokoyama, Uruha Mizuki, you get the picture.
I wish some of the freelancers could hit up the Ebisu Muscats every so often, but damn if we are just looking at them because of the corporation's sake, that's not good. Imagine if Aino left Ideapocket to be a freelancer. How devastating would that be to the 'Cats?
But I digress, I wouldn't mind seeing an interracial AV now and then, but S1 and Ideapocket won't seem to take that risk. And no, coloring your skin for the sake of entertainment does not count here. So no interracial vids of Acky, Shou, Rina, Kaho and Aino. Ah well...
Russell Westbrook? never heard of him
Whenever I mention Westbrook's name with regards to one of the Muscats, just know that I'm mentioning Aino Kishi.
I view Aino Kishi as the unofficial mascot for the NBA team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. And I view her as Russell Westbrook's unofficial AV girlfriend.
No. I
do not imagine Russell Westbrook performing the "Nightingale" dance with Kaho Kasumi.
I swear I walked into this elevator sober...what happened?
If this happened to me I would literally faint. Dead serious.
Wait a minute where the hell is Saemi? I'm not staying in an elevator filled with the 'Cats if there's no Saemi man...
Rina's in there.
which sub-unit would Kijima 'The New Girl' Airi suit?
not sure...
What is it with you people and Airi Kijima...
