Is the New Bako Bus Going to be Cancelled?! – What's Happening to Moodyz’s Latest Special

To celebrate their 25^th anniversary in JAV, Moodyz held another Bako Bus special. The massive Orgy brought together their biggest stars along with stars from other studios and freelancers. A jam-packed title that has big backing from the famous studio and seems to live up to the occasion. But there’s a wrench in their plans by the name of Karin Touno, who could ruin the whole party. Karin is/was a little-known Moodyz exclusive from 2024; she was also part of the huge cast in Bako Bus. In the middle of this month, her videos were completely removed from FANZA. Her social accounts are still around but haven’t been updated since the end of last year, making fans believe she has silently exited porn. But this puts Moodyz in a bad situation because in the same week she delisted her videos, they just announced the newest Bako Bus.

Soon after the video was listed online, the details looked odd. A note was added that the physical DVD was delayed, the runtime was reduced, and no trailer has been released. Figures within the industry have hinted at the sudden difficulty of releasing the video. TomoP, a well-known producer with Moodyz, let loose her own frustrations. So, if Karin is delisting her videos, does that mean the newest Bako Bus will be cancelled?

Delistings happen in JAV regularly, unfortunately, but immediate delisting is not as common. This usually happens with actresses who have retired or been gone for a while. This can happen for any reason, and it’s all speculation as to why Karin disappeared. It can happen when their loved ones find out, and they want to disappear online, it can happen when there’s a disagreement with their management, or it can happen when they’ve been wronged somehow. We can speculate all day, as many fans are.

Whatever the reason Karin left, it seems very unfair that one person can do this to everyone else. The actresses, actors, production staff, and studio are now unable to release their work if the video is cancelled. For the studio, that means a lot of effort and capital is lost, as Bako Bus is no small production. They pour a lot of resources into putting it together and funding it. The videos spawn multiple offshoots and versions and usually end up as one of their best sellers for the year. For the workers, that means they don't get their due, and additionally, for the actresses, being denied the extra exposure thanks to the special.
