Career
Our Career Spotlight today looks into Nanami Kawakami. The delightful Nanami first got her start all the way back in 2012 with Alice Japan, a studio that she would work with heavily throughout her career, even after she became a freelancer. A country girl from the boonies who became very self-sufficient and managed her own career, interviews, and organized events. Throughout her decade-long career, she’s also worked with studios like Idea Pocket, Hon Naka, Attackers, and Tameike Goro. Favoring the last two a lot later on.
It's no coincidence she favored those two plot heavy studios, as Nanami only became more interested in AV after working with those types of makers. Working harder at her acting to improve it, and focusing more on the scripts. Her hard work paid off as she saw her work rise afterwards, so she made the conscious decision to turn her acting into her strength. Nanami became passionate about acting in general and even appeared in mainstream TV shows like Netflix’s The Naked Director and HBO’s Tokyo Vice. Her cameo in The Naked Director gave her the push to try for more acting outside of JAV.
Nanami finally called it a career in 2022, which she had announced in advance earlier. However, she called it quits even earlier than that in the middle of the year, thanks to an engagement proposal and a pregnancy announcement. Today, you can find her online posting about her happy domestic life while hanging out with her old AV buddies now and then.
AV Actress
Nanami, the AV actress, was known for her slim and petite figure. A small and wiry body with a smooth and slightly darker complexion. She isn’t very well-endowed at all with her small B cups and small ass. A flat chest and not much of an ass to talk about, to be honest. Her figure isn’t her biggest strong suit unless you are a fan of the slim and skinny type. Facially, she is a cutie who became much prettier as she matured. Sporting short brown hair for most of her career, she grew it out later on. A small face with beady little eyes, a slightly hooked nose, and two big front teeth. A great, unique little smile on her face. A nice face with a body that won’t pull you, but it’s her personality and performing that will.

She was able to stay as a featured actress for ten years in porn thanks to her charm and acting skills. A big personality that you can see in documentary-style videos or in her interviews outside. An open-minded and vocal woman who's got natural host vibes. In the bedroom, she is a great performer as an over the top type who likes to pull out the eyes, rolling back ahegao face. She can take it hard in bed as well. Great at acting, which is why she gravitated towards more plot-based titles later on. I see why she wanted to move towards mainstream acting; she had the acting chops beyond hamming it up in bed.

Types of Videos
Like we stated, she is great at acting, so expect a lot of story-based titles. Lots of nice, fun character work with Nanami, who was good at roleplaying and buying into her character. Starring in plenty of Dramas with Attackers and Tameike Goro. With those two, she has lots of hardcore submissive titles with rougher sex and dark plot lines. Not everything is all dark and moody; however, she knew how to let her hair down in her documentary-style videos. Titles where she is more herself and the mood is lighter and with her natural charm and character, these videos were a perfect match. In them, she could be a lot more playful, assertive, and even a bit of a dom.

Fun facts
Nanami was sued by the scout who first discovered her, trying to claim her earnings. She took him to court and won after two years. She was also part of the JAV idol group Ebisu Muscats and even emceed for Ebisu Muscats 2.0’s farewell concert well after being inactive from the group. She also did erotic dancing on the side with stripping and teasing shows. Nanami changed her name spelling from 川上奈々美 to 川上なな実. Both can be read the same but have different meanings. Plus, Nanami would go on to write an autobiographical book “決めたのは全部、私だった” (loosely: I made the decisions) available here https://amzn.asia/d/0VxZzgo.
