About Panking

Hello everyone! My name is Panking and I've been an avid fan of JAV for nearly 18 years now. My introduction to JAV was through the one and only Hitomi Tanaka and as a result she still remains a top favorite of mine. Some of you may recognize my name from Reddit where I maintain a JAV centric sub and post gifs there. I also run a discord server based entirely around JAV as well. Anyway some of my favorite actresses from the past include Anri Okita, Hitomi and Rio Hamasaki while a few recent favorites would be Alice Otsu, Hana Himesaki, and Kurea Hasumi. I mainly write JAV reviews for new releases each month but also do the occasional top 10 list. Hope you all enjoy my posts!

JAV Q&A

What first got you into JAV?
Discovering Hitomi Tanaka for the first time
How many years have you been following JAV?
I have been into JAV since about 2008. Although at first my knowledge was extremely shallow. I didn't even know about ID codes until a few years later.
What are your favorite types of JAV stories or setups?
One of my favorites is the "getting seduced by the girlfriend's sister" setup. Mostly because it allows the performer to really flex their seduction skills. It serves as a true test to any actress.
What kind of videos do you usually avoid?
Soapland unless it's starring one of my absolute favorite actresses. They're usually very dull with overly bright lighting, repetitive setups(always with the copious nuru gel play) and samey settings.
Which studios do you respect the most right now?
While many jaded JAV boomers may disagree, I still say Moodyz is the top dawg. They're very consistent with their production values, boast some interesting setups, and feature the most ambitious collabs in the industry such as the BakoBako Bus series.

After verifying your age, $3 USD site balance bonus will be sent to your email inbox.

Recently a number of US states and a few countries of note have enacted age verification requirements for adult sites. On the US front at least, legal experts both within and outside of our industry do not believe any will pass a constitutional test. However, since these laws currently are on the books and thus have the ability to be enforced, we are choosing to comply with them at this point in time.


ZENRA uses Bluecheck.me, a third party verification service, to perform this important task easy to install filtering software does infinitely better.

Information used in the verification process is not stored on our servers. Phone number and address verification is instant and uses database cross referencing (no calls, no SMS messages, nothing mailed to the address). ID verification takes about one minute and is performed 'blind' on Bluecheck's side where the ID is reviewed by someone unaware of what service the submitter is attempting to access.


Regardless of what method you choose, it costs you nothing, but does increase the cost of our operations in order to somehow make the internet a 'safer' place.
