n4meless8 Airi Kijima working for Attackers and Idea Pocket is a bad comparison to make for this because those studios are owned by the same entity. Trying not to be a party-pooper, but any actress who is "Exclusive" to any DMM-owned studio will not be doing anything hardcore outside of that so long as her contract remains valid.

      ZENRA I totally understand that. But I don't think it's a bad comparison. And like you said, some of them appears in softcore scenes, other than their main studio(s). So even though those studios belongs to the same entity, It's all about what's in a contract.

      What I'm saying is that it's not impossible; If you combine everything what's happening in Japanese Porn industry (and the includes the New Law) something needs to change as far marketing goes. _Whether it's small or big changes, it can't stay the same. Otherwise, they will hurt their sales even more.

      If we take a look at what's happening here on SLR, the gap between each new releases are significantly lower on some (if not all) of the JAV studios' scenes here compared before. Why is that? Just like technology, any industries will evolve eventually.

      And again, connections can play a role here; SLR could negotiate with a studio and offer them money and some perks after the contracts expires; something like, in exchange for 2-5 collaboration scenes with one of your Exclusive Actresses within one year, SLR will increase the amount of money your studio can earn on sexlikereal.com for the same duration, on top of the initial payment. Or give them some other benefits. (And this will also act as an advertisements for SLR, so it's win-win for both studios.)

      I understand we all have our own experiences and opinions, but we gotta try to think positive. And the discussion we are having might play a role at some point, so thank you, bro.

      But of course, all of these are for a very long distant future... Or it might not take that long. And maybe it will happen. Or maybe it won't. Who knows... All I'm saying is it's not impossible.

          n4meless8 I think your ideas are in the right place, but are vastly under-estimating just how much money the top tier studios in Japan earn compared to what even a company like SLR could request to get permission to use these actresses. I'm extremely bullish on SLR's Japan efforts, but also am aware it's a long-term strategy.

            n4meless8 Ah my bad, I didn't follow much what happend to jav actress since the retirment of Akiho Yoshizawa 🙁

              Not seeing any Gyaru girls so far - they are my favorite niche!

              Avakian I hope this topic will be more active, a lot of time has been spend by n4meless8 to put it together.

              n4meless8 has done a great job and it's appreciated, but personally I don't have any faith that we'll ever see Japanese girls in SLR Originals.

              They announced it over 2 years ago. I remember I subscribed to SLR in July because they were about to release the first SLR JAV Originals.... And here we are...

              So I'm out of the mood to put up my favorites, I don't think it will be of any use.
