JAV Career Movements: Oppai bounced JULIA and Matsuri Kiritani, greps busty newb Haru Kawamura

Published : August 12th, 2020 Written by WoodOfTheRisingSun

Are you an Oppai fan?  For a while now I have been getting very comfortable with Oppai's lineup with especially the busty dual JULIA and Matsuri Kiritani.  Even in late April, Oppai reinforce my comfort with a Twitter banner fronting their four exclusive girls: (from right) JULIA, Matsuri, Hitomi and a ... who? 

After two and a half years I still haven't yet digested JULIA departure from Moodyz, so was nice to see her still considered tops at Oppai.  But time's a-changing faster than you can imagine.  Only three weeks after that banner, her last title with Oppai (PPPD-842) was released, then she transferred to Honnaka starting in June.  Currently JULIA is exclusive idol for both Honnaka and WANZ Factory. For quite some time before then, JULIA was double exclusive at Oppai and WANZ, and you know who else has that same career setup and even belong to the same agency C-More?  Matsuri Kiritani. That is, until now. 

Matsuri's PPPD-861 is likely her last title with Oppai, starting in August she is joining the mature ladies studio Goro Tameike 溜池ゴロー as exclusive idol.  Now... JULIA is nominally 33 years old, while she still look great to me, no one would call her a spring chicken.  So it's understandable Oppai lets her go.  But Matsuri?  She's barely 24 years old and her porn age being 3 years 8 months, a definite veteran, but to join a studio that uses Yumi Kazama 風間ゆみ as their cover girl?  It's a surprise and a let-down.  Okay... calm down a bit... is it possible Matsuri isn't leaving Oppai, and just added Goro Tameike as her third exclusive contract studio?  I guess a responsible report should allow that possibility.  But with Oppai's mid-August releases already revealed, it's looking like a poor bet. 

So bouncing a pair of my favorites, what's shaking at Oppai???  One curious trend is possibily catering to Western-fan's taste, consider Hitomi is the only one staying on out of the three old faces from that banner, she who's huge (literally) in the US market, and check out these three covers from last month. What do they look like?  June Lovejoy is American (check out thisthis and this), Hitomi with hair dyed golden brown, and Erena Sasamiya made up like a foreigner, for a moment, they make Oppai look like an American studio.

But June Lovejoy is a freelancer and even with the other two covers looking like Oppai has become an American studio, it may all just be a coincidence.  So before I make a bigger fool of myself, let's try out the only other big thing that could get Oppai thinking "HA we don't need JULIA and Matsuri any more!"

That would be Miss Hot Newbie of May, Haru Kawamura 川村晴 yes that mystery girl sharing in the banner at the top of this post.  Back in April, the leftmost three idols on the banner had a combined twenty years in JAV, compared to Miss Kawamura's big fat ZERO.  Yes, when Oppai promoted their four big exclusive idols, her debut title was still in the pipeline.  In fact, her debut title came out on the same day as JULIA's swansong title for Oppai (only we didn't know it was JULIA's departure, back then). 

In retrospect all the signs were there, only I refused to see it!  Veterans who are still very hot, but have their peaks behind them (sorry the irony is a bit heavy), are out.  The future is in hot young newbs. Haru Kawamura, 20 years old, at 170cm tall, 90-62-88 (H-cups) measurement, looks great on paper.  According to the promo blurb, she received contract offers from both modelling and JAV studios.  In the good old days, it would be a no-brainer choice: go to modelling first, preferably non-nude to start.  Only going to nudity gravure as an un-banning move.  Then finally enter JAV (again as un-banning) as a legit celeb.  That path is mandatory for not only "moral decency", but also as commercial strategy.  But this is not 2016, Toto!  Miss Kawamura couldn't bother to work modelling gigs (for potentially as short as 4 months) even if it means a big paycheck for her big splashy debut-as-celeb title.  She wants to screw JAV studs for a living, right away.  Hahaha... not quite the dom bitch Urara, but she wants to just get her fill of cocks rather than follow the most profitable career path.  Now with JULIA and Matsuri gone, and Hitomi mainly holding up the foreign market, Kawamura has been promoted to cover girl for the domestic market. 

In her upcoming title for August, young Miss Kawamura is already doing the first big un-banning: creampie.  Now, of course, we in the know are savvy enough to enjoy these creampie titles with Orwellian doublethink.  But nonetheless any un-banning marks a signpost along a JAV career. And number three is way too early for a supposed hot new star, despite creampie un-banning is about as meaningless as it gets.  Could it be blamed on pandemic (a big cashing out to make up for the lost months)?  Or something else?  See Haru Kawamura doesn't have any SNS accounts, this is pretty strange for idols in the 20s.  And her face could use a bit of work, nothing nearly as drastic as Yua Mikami or Eimi Fukada but IMHO if she doesn't do some touch up work, she won't be competitive after the initial honey moon phase.  Thinking along this line, suddenly Haru Kawamura isn't just un-proven, she might be un-committed to JAV career.  Are we sure Oppai knows what they are doing???

PS: depends on when you read this article, the cover girls for Goro Tameike and Oppai will likely have changed, so here are the screen caps for conservatory purpose:

It's weird to see them market Erena as a foreigner, NINE-028 literally says she's Filipino in huge letters on the cover and it's not the only cover to do so. They touted her as a new debut too despite her being active since 2015 (although after 2017 she was doing uncensored exclusively to my knowledge).

I actually think it's good overall that Julia is leaving and going elsewhere. I think actress-studio stagnation is a big problem, which is to say that an actress being at a studio too long causes problems. They often find themselves doing the same kind of videos over and over again meanwhile another studio has wonderful videos for them to star in. I actually really wish Hitomi would leave but I guess if Julia and Matsuri are out the door they're doubling down on Hitomi (not that I think she's ever getting out of Oppai). I would wager Oppai doesn't know what they're doing, I've long since felt like they've done a poor job with talent acquisition, especially on the freelance side of things. There are a lot of actresses that should have starred in some videos and didn't for some reason.

On that note, Hitomi really isn't that unpopular in Japan. She was on the top 100 list earlier this year and historically she's actually been well received domestically. Yeah not some S tier like Julia but maybe a top 250 actress. Based on the historical data I have from the past decade Hitomi is only just outside the top 50. Sure, she's far more popular outside of Japan, but she's still more popular than people think.

If an actress looks exotic in some way, the studio will capitalize on that. We're working on a movie starring a 'half Thai' model down the line. Full-blooded Japanese going by social media comments.
