BREAKING: Rina Kago LASHES Out At Taiwanese Fans

Catch up on the most trending gossip that we had our eyes on in March

I came across this gold while researching for the blog, and let me tell you, this gossip involving Rina Kago is impossible to ignore.

Now, trust me when I say that I’ve seen my fair share of online meltdowns. But Rina’s outburst earlier this month was something else entirely.

In a since-deleted series of tweets, Kago went on what can only be described as a bizarre and deeply troubling rant on X, one that might not sit well with her overseas fans. These tweets reportedly included statements directed at Taiwanese fans in particular, with such bigotry that’d make it hard to believe it came out of her mouth, but rather, that her X account was compromised.

“Taiwanese men make my skin crawl,” she allegedly wrote. And that was just the beginning.

She reportedly went on a full-blown rant, making intolerant remarks on Taiwanese culture, food, and language, before outright calling out the local Taiwanese authorities to handle problematic individuals, which caused some backlash.

You might think she might've halted, but she went on. Similar sentiments were extended toward Chinese people as well.

Somewhere during the episode, she might’ve realized the situation, which likely made her regret and delete those tweets. And as of now, Kago has not issued any clarification, apology, or denial.

In the absence of an official statement since the incident earlier this month, speculation has filled the void. What makes this situation particularly intense is the timing.

We’re currently in a period of uneasy relations across East Asia, with geopolitical tensions simmering beneath the surface and friction among countries. Let’s say this is not the right time to make such statements.

Especially when you’re a JAV actress whose career literally thrives on overseas audiences, and allegedly making inflammatory remarks about one of her largest overseas fan bases isn’t going to sit right with the fans.

Because let’s be honest, JAV actresses enjoy massive popularity in both Taiwan and China. For many performers, those regions represent a significant portion of their audience.

Which raises the obvious question: What does this mean for her career?

Kago, exclusive with KMP since her 2022 debut, has kept a low profile this year, with only a few releases in 2026. This period could have been key to building momentum and strengthening her brand.

Instead, she’s now at the center of a controversy that risks doing the exact opposite.

Or was this whole fiasco part of a PR stunt that was supposed to generate hype for her?

A much-loved terrestrial TV show produced by TV Tokyo with an ensemble of renowned JAV actresses, like Miru Sakamichi, will air its final episode at the end of this month.

Yes, Tsuki to Mogura is officially wrapping up. The program, which quietly built a cult following over the last three years, will air its final episode at the end of this month, closing the curtain on one of the network’s most unconventional late-night experiments.

Ofcoure our readers might’ve never stumbled upon it. For the unversed, it’s a game show produced by TV Tokyo, hosted by the comedy duo Mogurider, that’s Daisuke Shiba and Tomoshige, and featuring a rotating lineup of JAV actresses who brought a level of eye candy you simply don’t see on mainstream television.

Among the most recognizable faces were Miru Sakamichi, who became something of a regular throughout the show’s run.

Naturally, the announcement of the finale came with a message from the production team, and it was exactly as cheeky as you’d expect.

“We’ve been able to broadcast for three years thanks to all our fans, Tsuki-chan, the Mole Boys, and the Moguraiders,” they wrote on X. “Instead of a sappy ending, we’ve made the finale as chaotic as TsukiToMogura itself, so please enjoy it right to the very end.”

There you go!

One show that created that on-screen magic of watching adult film actresses interact with comedians on TV has finally come to an end.

Over the years, plenty of actresses made guest appearances, including Aoi Ibuki, Niko Kawagoe, Rika Onno, and Nozomi Ishihara, many of whom shared their own farewell messages as it came to an end.

But perhaps the most emotional reactions came from the fans.

Fans quickly flooded the comment section, reminiscing about the impact the show had left on them. One viewer wrote that the show completely changed the way they experienced fandom.

“If it weren’t for Tsukimogu, I never would have discovered the charms of so many actresses,” they admitted. “I was hesitant about attending the first stage show… but by the second half of the event I was fighting for S-class seats.”

Another commenter pointed out something many industry watchers already know: programs like this are incredibly rare on Japanese television.

“Everything has a beginning and an end,” the fan wrote, “but since TV Tokyo is pretty much the only channel that does this kind of edgy variety show, it’s truly a shame it’s ending.”

And he’s got a point.

Shows that cast JAV actresses onto mainstream broadcast television, not as scandalous headlines, but as entertainers, are surprisingly uncommon. Which is precisely why Tsuki to Mogura was so successful

As one fan summed it up rather perfectly:

“Another show where you can see adult film actresses on broadcast TV is disappearing… I really loved the interactions between the actresses and the comedians.”

Same here.

For three years, the show aired at midnight. Yet somehow, the cult following remained glued to their screen to catch a glimpse of their favorite actresses.

Now the finale episode is about to be aired, though I believe the shoot has finally taken place.
