FC’s Monthly JAV Watch: April 2023 Part 1

FSDSS-609 Eros Hidden Behind Overwhelming 'Beauty' Lemon Tanaka AV Debut

Starring: Lemon Tanaka aka Karen Kaede
Tags: Re-Debut

Again we start the look at a new month with a return. Karen Kaede has comeback under a new name with Faleno. Now going by Lemon Tanaka. Karen was shaping up to be a great star with Idea Pocket until her shock retirement last year. The JAV gods were merciful and she’s now back doing porn. Not the first studio I would pick but I’m happy she’s back regardless. Karen/Lemon is back looking pretty much the same as always. Now sporting a short bob like hairdo. Still with her skinny and slim body. And still one of the prettiest actresses around.

A restart means a new debut so her return title is a classic debut type video. So plenty of talking interviews and glamor shots of Karen looking pretty as always. She’s worked herself up to a fine performer and comes back to it like it was riding a bicycle. Not missing a beat. As far as debut titles goes this is fine if vanilla. The blowjob and sex scene in the middle is peak Karen though. That pretty face is so good to look at and her spirited performing is enticing. A watch for Karen fans but a check for most others. Just an okay film. Let’s hope Faleno has lots of good ideas for their new pickup. Karen is gone and Lemon is here. Hopefully to stay for a long while.

HMGL-193 Last Yumika Saeki retired today.

Starring: Yumika Saeki
Tags: Retirement, Documentary, Deepthroating

The JAV gods giveth and the JAV gods taketh. One comes in and one comes out. Yumika Saeki has retired. Another surprise retirement from out of left field. Yumika started off in 2007 under a different name. She would be an on and off freelancer for years. Only recently has she seen an explosion in popularity. Appearing in loads of titles with all sorts of studios and talent. Dropping videos like mad. Becoming one of the best Hardcore freelancers in JAV in recent years. Known for her wild energy and incredible deepthroating skills. Her retirement is a big blow. Her retirement video is a documentary with her going on a little farewell trip. Lots of trip vlogs and sex scenes shot with handhelds.

This is a nice and much tamer video than her usual fare. Much more muted for the wild actress they call the Snake Lady. Still it’s pretty wild at times. She does bring out her signature dildo mask for one more outside trip. As a fan of Yumika’s wild but not too wild videos this is right up my alley. I only wish it wasn’t mainly shot in handheld. We deserve to see the hard and rough fucking she gets up to in full view. Yumika isn’t active online so it’s hard to say what is going on up that Snake Lady’s mind and if she will be back or not. Whatever she gets up to we wish her well. There goes one of the wildest women to step into JAV. And perhaps the best Deepthroater.

STARS-804 Superb Lingerie & Oily Intertwined With Instinct 4 Fucks Rei Kamiki

Starring: Rei Kamiki
Tags: Lingerie, Hotel, Oils

Rei Kamiki have yourself a night. She has really blossomed since debuting. SOD has themselves a girl whose as pretty as the dazzling Suzu Honjo. Fantastic eye candy. The pretty and pale vision is heating up. This being one of the best titles in her short career. The title is pretty simple but very well done. Just a hotel sex title with an extra emphasis on lingerie. She gets pounded from all over a nice hotel while earing some beautiful undergarments while getting nice and oiled up. Lots of eye catching glamour shots of Rei posing and looking fine as all hell. This is a great video to check out the rising rookie.

The video might be simple and mostly vanilla but it is all executed at a high level. Well lit, shot, styled, and made. A high class video for a high class lady. Rei also performs at a high class level. Not just a pretty face she fucks well here too. A much improved performer since her first outing. The scene with her in the red lingerie, oil, and blindfold gets my recommendation. The title gets a Must Watch from me. She performs well, the video is well shot, but most of all she looks amazing in it. Good sex even better visuals. Rei is a name to look out for. If I were a betting man I’d say she’s SOD’s next superstar.

DPMI-079 De M Slut

Starring: Nozomi Arimura and Hitomi Honda
Tags: Threesome, Lesbian, Leotard, Bitch, Rough

Let’s keep the good vibes going with this absolute banger of a title. Coming in from a little known studio Miru and starring two smaller time freelancers by the names of Nozomi Arimura and Hitomi Honda. I like Nozomi and was unfamiliar with Hitomi. Not much of a set up here to explain. It’s mainly the two in scenes together. Dressed up in flashy makeup and clothes, very Gal like. The video is great simply for the sex. Terrific. Our two girls just had a ball with this title. Fucking slow and seductive when they wanted to or let men ride them hard. Add on some girl and girl play and you have one of the best pure fucking titles I have seen this year.

The title only gives us three scenes; first a seductive femdom leaning threesome, then a nice lesbian scene between the ladies complete with strap on action, and finally a rough and hard foursome. Every scene is a winner. My favorite being the last one. Our two ladies are fucked hard and come back up for seconds. The scene reminded me more of a Western porn scene. They went hard at each other; deepthroating blowjobs, spanking, hard thrusting, hair pulling, and some play between the two girls. Just a fantastic title overall, just delivering in hot hot sex. I can get into more but I imagine I’ll be talking about it again for my post of the Top Titles of the year. For now you need to check out this great title.

PRED-472 The Libido Liberation Hustle with Abdominal Muscles! Sweaty Munmun, Drooling, A Gym Member Position

Starring: Yuki Takeuchi
Tags: Gym, Abs, Sweat, Cowgirl, Kissing

Next up is Yuki Takeuchi in her fit glory. Yuki’s been leaning more and more into her fitness and that is just what I wanted to see. Our video is all about Yuki the fitness coach as she helps out her students in various scenarios. Our star dressed up in athletic clothes and uniforms with a big focus on her abs. Lots of cowgirl riding shots and sloppy wet kissing. This is one of Yuki’s best titles and one that highlights her uniqueness. A slender woman with small assets with a fit body. Here she doubles down on a tanner complexion and her slender figure. A video that puts her more in the driver’s seat. 

Loads of alethic action to like here. From the gym to the poolside; Yuki is usually showing off her fit body in a tight and revealing outfit. Outfits that usually stay on for most of the action. Yuki is firing on all cylinders. Her small but powerful body being the highlight. She’s been getting into some amateur body building outside of JAV and it is showing in her videos now.  Looking great, focus on her sweet tight body, and letting Yuki dictate the action. Premium has finally figured out how to use her to her maximum potential. This feels like a title for a new phase for Yuki. A tanner, fitter phase. If you like fit chicks with tight bodies give this a look.

STARS-796 Yotsuha Kominato On The Way Home From A Location Shared Room NTR A Weather Lady and Cunning Middle Aged Director

Starring: Yotsuha Kominato
Tags: Female Anchor, Hotel sex, Shower, Drama, NTR

 When Yotsuha Kominato first appeared in JAV many saw her as a celebrity stunt debut. An AV actress whose only interesting because of her celebrity background. However I have to say she is looking better and better by the title. This former pop star might be a legit AV actress. We check back in with the SOD actress in this plot based title. Yotsuha plays a female news anchor who is stuck in a snow storm with her crew. NTR/cheating action ahead.  A little twist on the usual hotel overnight stay story which this essential is. A nicely shot video that is powered by Yotsuha performance during the sex.

Yotsuha plays the submissive and meek role so well during sex. With how she holds her hands to her face to hide her ecstasy or the way her legs writhe in passion. She girls excel in taking charge and some lying back and letting others take over. Yotsuha is looking like she’s in the latter camp. Her body was also looking a lot nicely than I first gave it credit for. A nice slender and slim figure with some abs peeking underneath her core. She seems to have filled out a bit more this title. This video gets a Watch rating. Yotsuha might be more than her celebrity past.

DASS-129 [Personality collapse] She was covered with sperm in drool by shaking her body

Starring: Sumire Mizukawa
Tags: Cheating Wife, Ahegao, Over the Top Orgasms

A cheating wife title about Sumire falling back in with her evil ex-boyfriend. Lets get it out of the way I did not like this film very much. Sumire’s a pretty over the top performer and this takes her too far to the top. A video with her doing lots of spit dripping ahegao faces and body shaking convulsions. I found her a bit too much here and not very enjoyable. I like me some exaggerated porn but this was a bit much. Which leads us to our next title.

JUQ-240 Physiologically impossible. Former Boss Runs An Obscene Cream Pie Beauty Salon

Starring: Sumire Mizukawa
Tags: Massage, Oil, Cheating Wife, Shame

Now this is much better, let’s try this again. Sumire plays a woman who goes to an esthetic salon slash massage parlor run by her former boss. A grubby touchy man who Sumire dislikes but pities because she is the reason he lost his job. She finds herself in love with his touch and reinvigorated by it. She hates herself for liking it all too much but can’t help herself. A slightly nicer plot than the last. I loved this video from Sumire. She’s been having a great stretch since becoming active again and this is one of the best titles lately.

To start it’s an enjoyable plot. Nicely lit and filmed as usual for Madonna. We even get a little bonus scene with an uncredited actress. And of course the talent delivers in a big way. Sumire looks phenomenal here. Her dark lustrous hair is flowing, her body looks incredible all oiled up, and her performing is just right. Still her brand of over the top performing but much under control compared to the last. A title that starts her off in sub role and then ramps up her inner slutty side.

Lots of great scenes to love here. My favorites being the last two. First of them being a frantic and passionate lovemaking scene. The second being the last scene, a little BJ scene to cap things off. Sumire looks fantastic in the moody lighting and even better when you add on a bit of oil and sweat. Her tits in particular look amazing in it. There’s a moment late in the film when she’s giving the man an upside down blowjob. Her body all oiled up and he is just playing with her tits. So good. Sumire is red hot and you should definitely check this one out.

MIMK-117 Furachi Ranked No. 1 and won the Triple Crown! I Shouldn't Fall In Love With The Resident Of The Opposite Room And A Convenient And Bad Relationship

Starring: Riho Shishido
Tags: Hentai Adaptation

Riho Shishido is a debut from last year. I quite liked her and she was on my shortlist of Favorite Debuts of the Year. A cute, round faced woman with a very soft and voluptuous body. Even better is her spirited performing and passion. She’s been doing fine with Moodyz and I check back in with her in this Hentai adaption title. A plot that boils down to a peeping Tom that a woman seduces. A plot lead title that perfectly matches Riho’s real strengths. A very strong performer both in bed and at acting. I had be that her charismatic self could do well with these dramas and she did not disappoint. Riho soared in this expertly shot drama.

I usually don’t remark on the directors too much but kudos to the director Hironori Takarase. It’s porn but that doesn’t mean you can’t be great at it. The director really chose some interesting shots and ways to shoot certain things. In and out of sex scenes. All that heighten the story and Riho’s great performance. The first sex scene being the highlight. Riho’s slow seduction of the man being terrific with varied camera angles. I’m giving this a Watch. As for Riho she joins the ever growing cast of great newbies to look out for. She is proving to be a fine rookie with Moodyz.

MIAA-808 "Drink My Body Fluids" Saliva, Tide, Holy Water Slutty Sex Mansion Sumire Kuramoto

Starring: Rei Kamiki
Tags: Spit, Slut, Squirting, Club Hostess, Kissing

We stop for the day with Sumire Kuramoto. The Sumire’s have been having a great year and you can add Kuramoto on that list. She’s become one of the premier petite Freelancing actresses around. Here she teams up with famed director Nao Masaki for a terrific title. Her direction is almost as good as Sumire’s super spirited performance. A well-directed video that has as much energy as it’s lead. The title has Sumire playing various service themed roles. Like club hostess, soap land worker, dominatrix, delivery health girl. With the scenes featuring lots of spit, kissing, and squirt. With Sumire looking nice as ever and in all sorts of costumes and outfits. A colorful film that is buzzing with energy.

Your mileage may vary with this title. It is messy with all the spit and squirting. Sumire gets downright nasty with it. Our little petite shows a nastier and messier side of herself here. Getting real sloppy at times. The scenarios here are all so fun. There’s a short bunny POV glass kissing intro. A nice club hostess scene with her in a nice see through schoolgirl costume. And while I’m not a big fan of these scenes, the soapland scene was quite nice. Sumire in a watermelon colored bikini and brimming with enthusiasm. From scene to scene the title makes sure the action or setting never stays stagnant. Great work from the talent on and off screen.
