EXCLUSIVE: Hanaya Project Just LAUNCHED Two Fresh Faces In 2026!

Catch up on the most trending gossip that we had our eyes on in September

A certain agency has just launched a pretty interesting new X account for its latest JAV porn.

It’s called “TSUBOMI,” and it’s bound to catch your attention.

As the JAV industry has hosted more and more large-scale events and exhibitions in recent years, JAV agencies have put much more effort into promoting their actresses. But TSUBOMI isn’t simply another new studio experiment.

Rather, it’s the brainchild of the management of Hanaya Project, and the concept is actually pretty interesting if you delve into it.

Think of TSUBOMI as an idol-group-style talent-development incubator, similar to Ebisu Muscats or what Anri started with BLACK DIAMOND.

For that, the agency has already raked in two newcomers who are preparing to enter the JAV industry as its first-generation members. And if everything goes according to plan, there could eventually be second-generation, third-generation, and even more members.

But here’s the interesting part!

Instead of introducing these actresses after they’ve already become successful, they’re planning to document the entire process. Everything from behind-the-scenes prep, the preparation, the excitement, the setbacks, the confusion, the moments when things finally go right- apparently, all of it would be covered in TSUBOMI’s story across social media.

So what do these two newcomers actually look like? Well, let’s start with the first one. Apparently, her name is Shimada Subaru, and we already know about her that she’ll make her exclusive debut with the SOD Group. Before deciding to enter the JAV industry, some more tea on the actress is that she apparently worked as an idol when she was 18.

Well, SOD has a huge number of labels, so it’d be interesting to watch which label she’ll actually debut with.

Considering she’s now 24, I doubt we’ll see her appearing under a label specifically built around 18-year-old newcomers. And given her appearance and especially the fact that her idol background is being emphasized so heavily, I wouldn’t be surprised if SOD STAR ends up being involved. Of course, we’ll have to wait for the official announcement. Matter of fact, her X account is already up, so fans can start following her journey.

And then there’s Rin Tanaka, another newcomer who recently appeared on the scene. She’s from Kagoshima and, interestingly enough, is the youngest of nine siblings. After graduating from school at 18, she spent eight years working before recently leaving her job to pursue a career in JAV. That’s quite an interesting backstory. But why JAV?

She reveals that she’s struggled with self-confidence and has often found it difficult to tell people “no.” This time, however, she wants to make her own decisions. She wants to say what she actually wants to say, do what she wants to do, and ultimately choose her own direction in life, and that’s exactly why this TSUBOMI project could be interesting.

All that’s left to see is where TSUBOMI takes them and how Rin and Shimada Subaru’s AV careers develop from here!
