Japan's Favorite AV Star - Erika Sato

Wow... that is one gorgeous woman.

Say konichiwa (hello) to Sato Erika (surname first), one of Japan's most beloved (if that word can be used here) adult video (AV) stars and adult model, ever.

There is not a lot of information out there on her, though she does posses a large body of work - none of which I will show you here, as this is not a porno site!

However, I present this to you because pornography is a part of Japanese culture - much like it is in all first-world nations - and then some - around the world.

The sex industry is large in Japan, just like it is in the U.S., Germany, Italy, Denmark - hell, pick a country! But, even me, well, I had never heard about this young woman until I got curious about what might be one of Japan's best known AV actresses - and yes, I hate to burst your bubble, but the women involved in the professional AV industry, well... they are acting.

Erika Sato (佐藤江梨花 - Sato Erika) is indeed a Japanese adult video pornstar, as well as an adult model.

She was born on June 8, 1986 in Chiba, Japan - yes, she is 25 years-old as of the time of this one-handed writing.

She is 1.70 meters tall (5'-7"), has brown eyes and brown hair, and her blood type is A.

Her measurements are a very sexy 89-57-85 (in centimeters), or a 35-22-33 (in inches). If you don't know what those numbers mean, you are too young to be reading this and should stop reading now. Or... if you are an adult and lack knowledge of the definition of those numbers... you know... I was going to say something snarky... instead, it means: bust-waist-hips.

Sato Erika is just your average Japanese girl-next-door. Not.

Erika apparently has a metric cup-size of F, and is very leggy with her gams reaching all the way down below her knees at a tasty 84 centimeters (33.07 inches) in length. Wow... how does she walk with legs so long that they touch the ground? Okay... I jest.

She is gorgeous, though.

Although she first started her career as an adult model, Erika got into the AV industry in December of 2005 (She was 19-years-old, in case you are trying to count backwards), and worked for five years until 2009, though she still models for cash.   

After she made her first AV movie entitled "Body To Body" (Dec. 2005), she moved to AV producers Peach-Boy Production where her movies got better distribution and promotion (though the scripts still sucked. I have never seen one of her movies, so that was just a guess) (I'm right, though!). This is when she became known as one of the top-selling AV girls in Japan. Also, her fame grew as she did tend to have a no holes barred attitude.
 
In fact, one of Erika's best selling movies was the bukkake-style AV entitled "The Ultimate Free Style Ejaculation" where she was a gooey recipient from a plethora of male AV actors some 77 times during the scene. It's not a record, but her work there cause AV sales to shoot up and over the competition.

And, by the way... who the hell comes up with these stupid AV titles?! I am a professional writer and horn dog (amateur)! Call me! I can help with the English next time!

Erika Sato: Perfectnes? Spelling! Try 'Perfection'. It rolls off the tongue easier.

I know, I know - you are wondering where are all of the pornographic photos and video are. Are you kidding me? On a casual search of the Internet lasting some six hours - I am nothing if not diligent - I was only able to find these three photos. Photos that are non-pornographic in nature, of course. Folks, the Internet is one dirty place. Did you know you can get pornography for free on it? Who knew?

Anyhow... Erika, as mentioned, is retired from the sperm bank business, and is hopefully safe and healthy and happy and rich.

Oh - and should you be wonderiung just why the heck I would bother telling you how long her legs are - well, Erika has stated officially, that her hobby is marathon running.

Legs... running...

Hmm... maybe she and I should get together. I once ran in the Ohtawara-shi, Tochigi-ken, 10-kilometer marathon - though I had to pull out... ba-dum-bum!

Oh waitaminute! You don't think she meant...

Maybe... did no other website or blogger catch this?

Could she have meant... marathon sex?

Erika... call me... that I can still do.

Japanese Women Seek Part-Time Porno Work To Relieve Stress - Their Own!

Pssst. You know that hot-looking woman you asked out because she seems to like you but never seems to have time to actually go out with you on the weekends?

She might be a porno actress.

Like most of Japan's businesses, times have been tough lately. Electronics, automobile, etc. have struggled as people just don't seem to have to money to blow as they used to.

Which brings to head the Japanese adult video market. With sales limp and unlikely to rise in the near future, Japan's adult video industry is trying to pump revenues by slashing costs.

There are some 2,500 new Japanese adult videos slapping the store shelves each month - but sales are slumping. It's true. I can only afford to purchase about 2,000 of them each month as those of you have ever shaken my hand will attest to.

To maintain its ¥1/2-trillion (500,000,000) market, producers are being forced to create a film for only ¥1,000,000 (~Cdn/US $12,500) - which is down by 90% from the usual ¥10,000,000 (~Cdn/US $125,000).

How to do it? They are using weekend-amateur adult video actresses who may work by the inch rather than a standard industry scale.

Says an adult video production employee who seems to have his finger on the clitoris of the situation: "Monday through Friday, a woman might work very diligently at a bank. But on the weekend she’ll have an interest in doing something different and relieving stress. That’s the sort of reasoning we’ve been hearing regarding the increase (in weekend actresses).”

Ohhhhh ... yesssss! So for the average Japanese woman who is feeling stressed, performing in a porno movie is the way to blow away the pressure and earn enough money for that pearl necklace they have always wanted.

That can't be all there is to this is it? Let's get to the bottom of this situation.

Further, popular feature stories on sex appearing inside women’s magazines have also had an impact.

“By increasing knowledge of sex, desire has become stronger,” claims another production company employee. “The women will say that they hadn’t experienced pleasure during sex previously, and want to reach climax with a professional actor. For these gals, it’s not about money. Therefore, the industry can put them to work for less.”

Are you serious? Are these men serious? Are these women telling them this? That a professional male porno actor knows how to make a woman orgasm? Really? You know that most of the women in porno movies fake their orgasms, right?

Do these weekend whore-rriors know that a porno movie is shot in drips and drabs as camera angles are changed and breaks are taken? Most male porno actors can't even get it up and need a fluffer to get them erect. Yes... a fluffer is someone who gets the actor ready for action. Why?  Many men reading this may wonder what the fug? A pretty naked woman lying in front of me - I've already ejaculated twice in my pants... but that's the problem.

Often a male adult video actor will use something to desensitize the penis so that they can last longer... in some cases, it makes getting an erection difficult and difficult to maintain. And this is what will help the Japanese woman achieve stress release?

OMG! Is this what has happened since I left Japan?

Look... this is supply and demand. There are many Japanese women out there who want to earn extra money. I get it. I've had a few girlfriends professionally involved in various adult entertainment trades. But it was always to make money. Quickly and then get out and hope that no one saw you do it.

It's the same for the weekend actress. You should be acting. Not trying to get off. Make some extra cash on your back and hope that no one in your office recognizes you moaning 'iki iki' - because Japanese men don't watch a lot of porno. Riiiii-ght.

Back in the day, a top-flight Japanese adult film actress might make upwards of ¥5,000,000 (~Cdn/US $60,000) per movie. That's not tough to swallow.       

But, let's hear what former porno queen Komuro Yuri (surname first) had to say about the reverse cowgirl industry trending. The 36-year-old Komura was underneath a lot of meat but on top of the industry between 1996-1999. 

“Wages usually start high at the start and slowly drop off,” says the 36-year-old actress, who says she was paid one million yen for her first appearance. “Then my rate fell off to ¥700,000 (Cdn/US $8,500). But nowadays I’m hearing girls will receive ¥100,000 (Cdn/US$1,200) at their debut, with the drop off hitting ¥50,000 (Cdn US $600).

“If that were the case for me, I wouldn’t do it,” Komuro continues. “The meaning of being an actress today is something like being an amateur engaged in a hobby.”

Hunh. I like her attitude. Everyone who has a job has probably been screwed in the ass at some point in time... but in the porno industry, if you're going to let that happen, you better be well compensated for it.

But, despite Ms. Komuro's protestations that the newer cheaper adult video industry is not all that it is cracked up to be, the industry itself is actually having an easy time finding actresses to fill the void left by the porno star.

While adult video companies once used scouts to pick women off the streets, thanks to public nusianse complaints, they are no longer being utilized. Instead, social media leads the way. Instead of the industry searching for women, now women search for the industry, visiting websites and filling out applications and seeing upfront the meat of a contract as well as what skills might be required for a particular film.

Anyhow... guys... if it makes you feel any better to realize that the Japanese woman you want to boink isn't going out with you because she wants to relieve stress by orgasming while participating in a porno movie - she ain't. 

I have no problem with an adult making money any legal way she chooses. My only concern is that the industry is now setting itself to be inundated by underage girls looking for a fast buck (I meant 'buck', as in money). Yes, proof of age is required, but kids have ben flashing their private fake ID for decades to get into places they shouldn't.
