About Fried Chikan

This is Fried Chikan, and I've been following JAV for years. I was first introduced to it through grainy clips of Sakura Sena and Maria Ozawa back in the day. I really started following the industry in the 2010s, with Kaede Matsushima being one of the first actresses I became a fan of. I've come to appreciate JAV's high production values and its emphasis on story-driven themes. My all-time favorite actresses include Iori Kogawa, Aki Sasaki, Akiho Yoshizawa, and Aika Yamagishi. Beyond watching the latest releases, I enjoy exploring the weird and funny side of JAV while also researching the history of the industry and its behind-the-scenes inner workings.

JAV Q&A

What first got you into JAV?
It's hard to pin down exactly what got me into JAV, but I would have to give credit to Kaede Matsushima. She didn't look like anyone I've seen in porn before. Even though I couldn't understand the language, her face was so expressive and emotive. To this day, I'm a big fan of good performance and slender bodies. She made me not just a fan of her but of JAV itself. Shoutout to Sakura Sena and Maria Ozawa too.
What makes a JAV review genuinely useful in your opinion?
When I got into writing about JAV, I was never thinking about making any sort of high-level criticism or analysis. It was purely just about sharing my love and appreciation for the genre. Sharing what I like and occasionally don't like about something. JAV reviews should do the same. Inform what something is about, what might attract you to it, or what might detract from it. Simple as that.
What is one thing you wish more JAV fans understood about the genre?
To appreciate that they make movies, not singular scenes. Their videos are meant to be enjoyed as a whole, to be watched in progression. Watching the scenes develop, the plots build up, the scenarios change; it can all add to your enjoyment of a video. Not just something you should fast-forward right to the action. Enjoy the feature length.

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.
