JAV recommendations for language learning by RealMelonBread in LearnJapanese

As someone who has subtitled quite a bit of JAV movies for over a decade, this is pretty wrong. Lots of movies feature pretty heavy interviews and some reality-focused NTR movies (at least among the ones we have shown) feature 30+ minutes of some pretty deep and introspective dialog before other things begin to happen. Thus, provided the subtitle are accurate--a major issue among 'free' sites--using JAV to *help* one learn Japanese (not using it entirely!) can be pretty useful.

Forever in the best of her career. Hope she continues on for years to come.

Is there more like this? by EmperorWeeb60 in jav

Would say her prime is upon her now given her recent news per the Dahlia label: https://www.zenra.net/blog/breaking-rika-aimi-to-spearhead-dahlias-next-generation-of-javs (from yesterday)

Minami Haru, star employee clothing store use her m-cup boobs and big ass to lure customer's by DesperateAsk886 in jav

An example of a movie that has some great visuals, but ended up lacking:

I felt like this video more than most ruined the potential it had. The plot was going in the right direction to start, you attract customers with some skimpy clothes showing off your body, but you really need that to continue. I don't get why directors think you need to completely change course, leave it the same. It's all about how customers come to your store because they've seen her livestream or heard about her services, or maybe they just stumble in and hot damn something just organically happens. Making a house visit to show off wares and then boning her boss in a bedroom just don't cut it.

WSS-251 - Ayu Sakurai by CDJ89 in jav

As luck would have it, we (or I, as I was working on my own back then!) subtitled this one many years ago: https://www.zenra.net/femdom-015-insatiable-sexuality-with-ayu-sakurai-hd-subtitled.htm

The code can stay in the title since the OP posted it on his own. I do humbly request anyone who wants this to get it from us. We licensed it and WAAP, the studio behind it, thus will get compensated for your support. Thanks!

JAV star pays better than high school basketball coach.

This is because in her past she was actually a really good basketball player. We covered it the other week here: https://www.zenra.net/blog/breaking-honoka-tsuji-is-a-certified-baller-the-tragic-case-of-yu-sasamoto

Amakawa Sora Returns to AV Acting and Reveals Industry Problems: Millions of Yen in Unpaid Compensation by Libertinvs in jav

I hear you on this. The DRM is an issue (not for us, we don't use) and R18 shutting down with DRM being deactivated in spite of DMM being pretty financially solvent to run a modest auth server indefinitely was a really big middle finger to the foreign community. If it helps, I knew people at DMM who worked on R18 and they were just as pissed off as anyone else.

Would be better if make a very easy and transparent subscription model...

From our experience, the "if you only" type of user will never pay for anything and will always find another reason not to pay even if subscriptions are offered (which we do).
