Weird Words in JAV Titles (Part 2)

This is the second part of our list of weird words that you have probably encountered in JAV titles. Go ahead and check out the first part if you haven't yet.

Let's get into it.

“Boin” is a playful term, and it turns breasts into a playful object of fascination. The term is usually reserved for insanely huge tits that go beyond the typical sizes. "Boin" is a less-than serious way to refer to their ridiculous nature.

One popular example that used this term is in “Resort Boin”, a well-loved hentai series which, as you may guess, features big-breasted women having sex with one lucky protagonist.

Just reading CHRV-201's hilarious title, "BOIN to be Wild! Massage The Super Masochist Wild Boin! It’s Too Big And My Dick Is Fighting Hard! My Sister’s Huge Breasts Are Worth Seeing!", will give you an idea of what the video is all about.

You can usually see the term in titles that mention “piston-pumping” (another popular term) where high-speed and intense sex turns semen and pussy juice into having a frothy, icing-like consistency.

You have to give it to the Japanese: I don’t think Westerners have a term for this particular phenomenon. But it is an actual kink which actually makes sense.

Speaking of cloudy juice, one of the best series that features this particular kink is S1's "Milky White Juice" series. Although it has not seen a release in quite some time, it has featured some of the most beautiful actresses from their roster.

For example, it featured Miru Sakamichi in SSNI-663 (which by the way has the insane title, "Cum Facial Jizz That Flows Out From Her Body All That Pussy Juice Came Out With A Meringue-Like Consistency And Kept On Dripping Out Because Of All This Amazing Piston-Pumping Action). Perhaps one of Miru's greatest performance, it features a lot of passionate sex and sweaty action. But to put the icing on the cake - pun intended - it also mixed in some of Miru's trademark squirting. It doesn't get any "cloudier" than that.

When Japanese people say someone or something is going up to “120%”, that means exerting beyond one’s 100%, going the extra mile.

We don’t know the exact etymology of this idiom, but it is also a very Japanese phrase. Japanese people are expected to give it their all, and even beyond, particularly in their professional lives.

My theory is that it is 120% because it is even beyond than what is already beyond (110%). So when you say the sex is going to be 120% wet, that means it is wetter than beyond wet - if that makes sense.

Everytime you see 120% in any JAV title, expect things to be extreme. One of my favorite series from Prestige, “120 Natural Ingredients”, surely delivers with that exactly. I wrote a series of blog posts on this series that you might want to check out.

While the dictionary definition of semeru (責める) means to criticize, accuse, or blame, in modern Japanese, 「攻める」(semeru) is used to mean "to go bold," "to take an aggressive approach," "to push boundaries," or "to target something closely."

Because machine translation engines often struggle with slang, homophones, or contextual nuances, they default to the primary dictionary meaning ("blame"), resulting in highly confusing English text.

However, in the JAV context, the meaning leans closer to the last definition, “to target something closely.” That usually means teasing an actress’ nipple, or aggressively overstimulating her clit. 責めたい (Semetai) means to take the dominant/aggressive role in a dynamic (often used in a playful, romantic, or psychological teasing context, such as wanting to tease someone or be the "dominant" partner). Meanwhile, 責められたい (Semeraretai) is wanting to take the submissive/passive role, be teased, or gently overpowered.

In such contexts, the best translation would often be a mixture of “to tease” and “to dominate / to be dominated.”

As you can see, “blame” in Japanese is a complex word, as it can be used for a wide variety of contexts, and even the sexual slang is quite nuanced, as it implies sexual dynamics that are not present in the word “tease.”

If you think about it, “tease” in English is also quite a tricky word to translate. “Tease” is not necessarily sexual. It can mean making fun of someone, in a negative way, or something like a playful flirtation. “Teasing” in sex is not necessarily comedic, nor is it dominanating, because there is a playful aspect to it. But teasing can also be a part of intense hardcore playful, as when you are denying the other’s orgasms (orgasm denial) or making them overstimulated. It is possible that it is difficult to find exact equivalence between "semeru" and a single English word such as "tease", resulting to this common error.

One JAV that captures "blame" perfectly is BBAN-419 featuring Mio Ichijo and Kasumi Tsukino. Titled "I Want to Blame! I Want to be Blamed!", it is a lesbian movie where the two actresses take turns pleasuring each other. "Blame" JAV usually works best when two women are involved, as they can take turns being dominant and submissive.
