Introducing Taeko, the New Bon Bon M-cup

From Uncle Bon Bon comes exciting news of the discovery of Taeko, new model in the Bon Bon Cherry series. Above we see the front cover to the DVD Dokusen! Hattori! Niizuma chônyû M-cup! Haretsu sunzen irojirona chichi-atsu! Sutte namete hasande tappuri nyûsha! 123-senchi Taeko 33-sai (独占! 初撮り! 新妻超乳Mカップ! 破裂寸前色白な乳圧! 吸って舐めて挟んでたっぷり乳射! 123センチ たえこ 33才; BOMC-047), which is set for an August 1 release.

In my poster-labeling project for the Picasaweb albums I finished 1970, went all the way through 1969, and started 1968-- all within one 45-minute afternoon session online. Now the project is coasting toward the end! Well, the first half of the project, that is, the pre-1990 half. It will be nice to have this project all done so that all need be done is maintenance when new films come out, or new posters are discovered. Of course, after I finish this older Pink Film Archive, I still have the newer one to do... and that will take many more months... But well worth it once IMDb has a thorough coverage of Pink cinema, with links to posters which-- more than straight cast and release data-- give some visual idea of what the films are like.

Horny Fat Woman series, #21-25

Is it just me, or is Bane's voice, in The Dark Knight Rises, based on Walter Brennan's Grandpa Amos character from The Real McCoys?... Anyway... I'm still devoting my online time to IMDb's coverage of Pink films, but again, we must not keep our horny fat women waiting. Arzon doesn't have listings for this group of five videos, but it dates #27 as a December 2000 release, indicating that these were all first released before that. AV-Channel gives release dates as December 2005 for the first two, and March 2006 for the later three. I would guess these are re-release dates.









Here we come to the second early BBW celebrity in the series, Anna Watarai. I haven't dug into the history of her career yet, but she must have started, at the latest, by the late 1990s or early 2000s. It's a bit surprising that a lady of her substantial girth was around at the very beginning of the Japanese BBW video industry. She's actually a bit much for my own taste, but, as in the scene from the "Horny Fat Woman" video at right, she usually shows a charmingly cheerful enthusiasm in her work which wins me over. The painful, enduring-something-unpleasant look that so many Japanese AV actresses show during sex is not at all to my liking. Come to think of it, it seems like the majority of the BBW models smile and otherwise appear to enjoy the sex during their performances. Maybe that's one more reason I prefer them... I'll investigate Anna's career in a later post.

Out of the Past: Yoshie / Mie / Miki Mogami / Saijô

Today let's fulfill yesterday's promise to take a look at early busty Pink actress, Mie Mogami (最上美枝), who made such an impression on me in her brief appearance in Shûji Kataoka's S&M Hunter (緊縛・SM・18才 - Kinbaku · SM · 18-sai; 1986). Given her early and relatively obscure career, I found quite a few scans and video clips of the actress. Here is a sample video clip for your viewing pleasure. However I found no real information on her, other than some glimpses of her video and pink film career. JMDb is always a good place to start for a filmography of Japanese film personnel. The bad news is her listing there gives only four films. The good news is, S&M Hunter, the one appearance already known to us, is not listed. (I presume her role was to small to be mentioned there, as Pink film listings are usually fairly sparse.) So that makes FIVE known Pink film appearances for Mogami! (As I warned, information on this early actress is very hard to find, so we have to celebrate our victories where we can...)

I can't find much on her AV career-- which normally precedes a Pink film career today. But in these early days of AV, the performers were usually less successful Pink film actresses. The earliest solid evidence I have of the actress is a listing as Mie Mogami at Amazon's description of the video release of Nobuyuki Saitô's Roman Porno Wives' Rape Mansion (人妻暴行マンション - Hitozuma bôkô mansion; 1985-03-23). (Roman pornos were, essentially, big-studio Pink films.) This film was released by Nikkatsu on March 23, 1985, movie.goo also lists Mogami, giving her role name as "Lemon-chan". This appearance in Wives' Rape Mansion indicates that Mogami started with big studio Nikkatsu, apparently didn't make much of a splash, then went onto independent studios, and then into AV. This March 1985 appearance also puts her ahead of Eri Kikuchi, who is often pointed to as the first "big bust" AV performer. Kikuchi debuted in September 1985. There were a few busty models before this era, for example the famously big-boobed Nikkatsu Roman porno actress Ran Masaki who debuted in late 1983, but Kikuchi seems to have been the first to make an AV career out of her bust.

Mie Saijô (西条美栄) seems to have been the name she used only for AV appearances, while Mie Mogami (最上美枝) was her Pink film name. Apparently she was also known as "Miki" (presumably Miki Saijô). Her Arzon profile gives her debut year (presumably her AV debut year) as 1985, which was the same year as Eri Kikuchi's debut. I was well aware of Eri during these years, though, even though a busty Japanese AV star was quite rare in those days, for some reason, she never appealed greatly to me. As I pondered yesterday, I just can't imagine how I missed Mie Saijô at that time, as she would certainly have been my type. (Not so impressive today, with a cornucopia of true Japanese BBWs around, but still quite nice.) My guess is-- and this is supported by the difficulty in finding information on her today-- that she was not as popular as Kikuchi, and didn't make as many appearances either in film, video or print.

Fuller-figured ladies were considered best for S/M demonstrations. S/M guru Oniroku Dan once commented in an interview with Asian Cult Cinema, "An SM heroine must have a certain amount of body fat so the bondage rope makes a clear impression on her skin." It's rather an unfortunate association for us fans of Japanese big-bust / BBW models who have no interest in S/M. All evidence points to the likelihood that Mie was an S/M-specialist performer as well. I find only one real contemporary video listing for Saijô: Shigeki (刺激; AS-115), listed at V&R as released on September 15, 1985. The cover to that video is above, and a sample of the proceedings therein can be glimpsed at left. For more images and a video sample of this SM-fest, check here.

Mogami's first Pink film appearance listed at JMDb is half a year after her March appearance for Nikkatsu. She appears in director Ichirô Kitami's October 1985, Ryôshoku SM kinbaku (猟色SM緊縛; literally something akin to "Colorful S&M Bondage"). Released by Ôkura Eiga, this first film interestingly has Mogami supporting S&M star Hiromi Saotome (早乙女宏美), who would also star in S&M Hunter, performing the iconic (well, it should be considered iconic) death-defying dangling-nude-from-a-crane scene which concludes the film. I don't know anything about director Kitami, and both Jasper Sharp and Thomas Weisser ignore him in their tomes on Japanese sexploitation, so I guess we can conclude he's fairly minor. He does have an extensive filmography at JMDb going back to assistant director at Nikkatsu in 1942. He took up the Pink film genre in 1966 and directed nearly 100 films in the genre, mostly released by Ôkura, including some entries in the Chikan Densha / Molester Train series.

Mogami's next listed film is Yûzûru Ichimura's Buchikomu (ぶちこむ; re-release title, Reipu gekishin; レイプ激震) from November 1985. The following month she appeared in another Ichimura/Ôkura Studio film, Seikan kyokusen (性感曲線; re-release title Honban ura-hyô; 本番うら表). S&M Hunter was released by Shintôhô in February 1986. The U.S. DVD release, from Pink Eiga, credits Mogami as "Yoshie Mogami", which is an alternate reading for "Mie Mogami". It seems like most Japanese sources (Arzon for example), with they syllabalize her name, use "Mie" though... This film (see yesterday's review at this blog) is a satire of the S&M genre. The genre, so popular in the '80s, was apparently "jumping the shark" at this point, making it a ripe target for satire. We might hazard a guess also, that the film's star, Hiromi Saotome, and possibly Mogami herself, were closely enough associated with S&M to parody the genre. Mogami's final theatrical appearance listed at JMDb is in Takashi Sakaki's Takeshita Yukari: Gusho nure no honban (竹下ゆかり ぐしょ濡れの本番), also for Shintôhô, released in May 1986.

Besides the September 1985 release, the only other AVs I can find with Mie Saijô are those at AV-Channel, which are are later compilation DVDs released on VCA's D-Cup label (an early big-bust label). This indicates either that she did make more appearances in the '80s, and I just can't find them online, or that one appearance was popular enough to be re-edited into multiple compilations. (As an indication that this is a possibility, see the more recent case of Moa Anzai, who apparently only performed once, but who has been re-edited into many compilations. And then there is Kimiko Matsuzaka, who only made 21 videos and 2 Pink films, but has been seen in scores of compilations.)

One fleeting hint of hope that Saijô had a much longer career than I have been able to find is given in a video listing for Chikan stalker: Nerawareta bijin model (痴漢ストーカー 狙われた美人モデル), which starred Saori Mizuno and includes Saijô in the cast. According to JMDb this Ken'ichi Fujiwara-directed Shintôhô production was released in June 2001. Whatever name she worked under-- Mie Mogami, Mie Saijô, Miki-- she is easily recognizable not only by the size of her bust (rather unique in the mid-1980s), but also her nipples, which are as large, firm and enticing as grapes. Enjoy one last refreshing look at them below:

S&M Hunter

Tonight I finally saw Shûji Kataoka's Bondage SM: 18 Years Old (緊縛・SM・18才 - Kinbaku · SM · 18-sai), released on DVD by Pink Eiga to American audiences-- twice (first edition at left, second edition below, right)-- as S&M Hunter. We all owe this fine company-- and others, like Synapse, the late, great Pinky Violence, Panik House, ArtsMagic, etc.-- a world of thanks for, finally, making this fascinating area of Japanese cinema available for those of us with more adventurous tastes. I've had my nose pressed against the window of Japanese erotic cinema for decades, just reading all about it that I could, but my actually viewing of them was all too rare. I did have the good fortune to see a few Nikkatsu Roman Pornos and the like during their first run, but thanks to DVD releases, the last few years have given me the chance to see dozens of films I'd previously only known from still photographs and literature.Still, though I've had this DVD for a while, I put off watching it because of my general dislike of S&M films. Oh, I can tolerate an exceptionally well-made one, with a really gorgeous actress, like Naomi Tani in Wife to Be Sacrificed (1974), or Naomi Tani in... just about anything else. But usually I find tying, whipping, pissing in buckets, etc. to be just inane, and not even remotely erotic... So my prejudice postponed my viewing this really funny satire of the genre, and a really good low-budget movie to boot.

This film was first released theatrically in February 1986 as a sequel to Hanging Upside-Down Bondage (逆さ吊し縛り縄 - Sakasa tsurushi shibari-nawa) which was released in September 1985. Pink Eiga plans to release this earlier film on DVD to the Anglo audience as S&M Hunter Begins. Thomas and Yuko Mihara Weisser, in their Japanese Cinema Encyclopedia: The Sex Films (1998) call these two films the "Roper from Hell" series. According to them, there was a third installment planned, but never produced. Pink Eiga is giving some future releases titles which imply they tie into the "Roper from Hell" series (such as S&M Hunter Chronicle: The Legend of Yakuza and S&M Hunter: Wife to Be Molested-- note the Tani reference), but they actually have no relationship to the "Roper from Hell" films.
S&M Hunter was released to home video in Japan in the VHS edition above......and re-released theatrically on November 27, 2007 under the ending-spoiler title S&M Crane Suspension (SMクレーン宙吊り - SM crane chûzuri). The poster to that re-release is above.

The film has a strong, veteran Pink film cast. Mr. Pink himself, Yutaka Ikejima, introduces the film in the role of the master of an S&M club, and Pink film stalwart Shirô Shimomoto (right) is in his element in the titular role, a one-eyed vigilante rope master who uses his skills to punish offending females. The female cast is led by eager and pretty, but skinny, S&M enthusiast Hiromi Saotome as Meg, S&M Hunter's nemesis and leader of the girl-gang The Bombers. These bad girls go around capturing, tying up, and abusing men.

One actress in the film deserves special attention from this blog. With my taste in big, bouncy gals, and the Pink film genre's preference for skinny girls, I usually view these movies simply as movies, not expecting there to be much to stimulate my own specialized tastes. However upon the unveiling of the estimable bosom of Mie Mogami (above, sometimes transliterated as Yoshie Mogami), who plays a member of The Bombers, I snapped to attention. The film subsequently gave me a few moments to stop, rewind, pause, and reflect, admiring the view in loving slo-mo. Another reviewer says the film takes a brief turn into Russ Meyer territory here. Well, not quite, perhaps, but Ms. Mogami did inspire me to do some research. I find that, under the name Mie Saijô, she was an early buxom AV star, before Kimiko Matsuzaka, and maybe even Eri Kikuchi. How I missed her in the mid-1980s, I'll never know. Tomorrow I'll post what I little found on her.
Above, naughty Mogami torments a gay captive with her body......and the S&M Hunter takes vengeance on her with his notorious spider-web trick, twanging the ropes expertly to produce some titillating jiggles.

Where were we? Oh right, the movie. Yes, it's a comedy. A very funny one. And, while parodying S&M films, it manages to take satirical swipes at many other genres and subjects. There's something to offend everyone, as they say. Among the targets for its gleefully un-PC humor are: Christianity, Nazism, S&M (of course), scatology, homosexuality, etc., etc., etc. Kataoka's direction is very movie-savvy, and targets of parody include Western films in general, Sergio Leone in particular, along with the music of Ennio Morricone, and at least one wink at John Ford... Kataoka not only ribs the western directors, he makes damned good camera set-ups and creates some very impressive visual imagery while doing so.

Speaking of memorable imagery, as alluded to in the VHS and re-release titles, the film ends with an amazing set-piece: Hiromi Saotome tied-up and suspended by crane, nude, high above Tokyo. It is surely one of the most awe-inspiring moments in Pink film history. This scene deserves to be as iconic to world erotic cinema as Harold Lloyd hanging off the clock in Safety Last (1923) is to silent film.

Surprisingly, reviewing it in 1998 under the original title Bondage SM: 18 Years Old, Thomas and Mrs. Weisser treat this as a run-of-the-mill Pink film and only give it two-and-a-half stars out of four. (More and more I suspect the Weissers actually saw precious few of the films they review. Though their basic data usually turns out to be accurate, I've stopped paraphrasing their plot descriptions at movie sites due to blatant errors I've found in them.) I found this film to be an outstanding example of Pink cinema, and one of the best releases so far from Pink Eiga. This is one I will look forward to watching again. On my Pink film scale I give it an enthusiastic nine stars out of ten.

The BOMC T-Cup Party Continues!

BOMC-048 starring Haruki
Above we see graphic evidence of exciting news in the Boobpedian realm: From bedu.blog17 we get word that the amazing T-cup Haruki-- the most popular draw to this blog-- has made another appearance for the Bon Bon Cherry series: Dokusen! Chônyû-shi o nurikaeta T kappu honban futatabi! Gekiretsu 26-sai (独占! 超乳史を塗り替えたTカップ本番ふたたび! 激烈 26才; BOMC-048). Screen caps to follow as soon as they are located.

And in my Picasaweb project-- adding captions to Pink film poster images-- I broke through the 1972 barrier today. 1972 was the first full year of Nikkatsu Roman Pornos. Since I'm working backwards through the pre-1990 Archive, I will now be working mainly on true Pink films-- not big-studio Nikkatsu releases. This will make the project more interesting, but also more challenging, since information on these early pink releases is scarce and hard to come by. On the IMDb side, it will no doubt increase the ratio of new films to be added for each poster, rather than linking posters to existing entries. More work, but interesting work. That's what I'm there to do!

Horny Fat Woman series, #16-20

This week I've been devoting all my online time to the Pink Film project at IMDb. I've submitted dozens of new films, and linked dozens more posters, print reviews and English titles to existing film entries. Unfortunately my increased activity in this area means I have to neglect this fun blog, as well as my Boobpedia work, for a while. I have made several discoveries of new activity in the busty/BBW Asian lady world, so I'll try to go back and make daily entries for this week later on. But in the meantime let's keep our weekly date with those Horny Fat Women! AV-Channel gives the release dates for videos #16-#18 as October 3, 2005, #19 December 9, 2005 and #20 December 13, 2005. However release dates for previous entries in the series from Arzon would indicate that these videos were originally released in the early 2000s. Sit back and enjoy!

Though I can't make out her name on the cover to FDS-16 in the video's interviewer says her name-- which I also can't quite make out. It sounds like "Nako-chan", but other English sites say "Natsuki", which is probably correct... The VHS cover tells us the lady stands 170cm tall, weighs 140kg, and has measurements of 136-98-138cm.
FDS-17, above, gives us our first celebrity spotting for this series: early Japanese BBW legend, Yoko Koizumi. Though I don't see her name on the VHS cover, she is easily recognizable, and her name is given in the AV-Channel entry. My suspicion is that all of the models in this series were soapland girls. Yoko and Anna Watarai (who appears later in the series) were the rare ones who also had something of a video career. At least one soapland catered to BBW-admirers as early as the early 1980s, as evidenced by a magazine I purchased back then, though I don't know of any BBW videos in this era. I'll upload a scan of the early BBW soapland ad later on if I can find it... but I digress... on with the show!

The VHS cover lists the model of FDS-18 as 18 years old, standing 163cm, with measurements of 130(F)-130-133cm.

The only personal detail I can make out about the model of FDS-19 is something to do with a "Terekura" or "Telephone Club" i.e., phone sex, at 17 years of age-- perhaps she was a phone sex operator then...

The only thing I can make out about the model of FDS-20, based on the interview is "Shifu" mentioned right in mid-sentence at the beginning of the video. I think that is her name. And she says that she weighs 120kg...

Rin-chan Grows Up

Rin Aoki was always a pretty girl, and had a justly celebrated set of bazooms, but she was rather too thin for my taste-- a skinny girl with disproportionately large boobs. The kind that are popular with the general population, but not hefty or mature enough for me.
Well now, as we can see from the images herein, our little angel has come over to our side. She has relaxed, let nature take its course, and is putting on flesh, and doing so quite nicely. As she has matured, she has appeared in videos for BOINBB and big-girl specialists, JAMS. The images in this post are from her upcoming JAMS DVD Senkô yoyaku kaishi shimashita! Aoki Rin shutsuen shin nikkan chitai (先行予約開始しました! 青木りん出演新肉感地帯; SND-55; to be released July 28, 2012).
(...And... Um... I would be interested in that happening to me too... Please...)

Horny Fat Woman series, #11-15

I submitted a couple dozen Pink Film reviews from the Far East Film Festival, Twitchfilm and the second group of Midnight Eye's Pink Film reviews a few days ago. They are all live today, but none of the biographical information from Pink Eiga or links to their articles have been accepted at the biography entries yet. We come now to the third in our weekly visits with horny fat women. Here is where we get into difficulties dating these releases. Of this group of five video tapes, Arzon lists only #13, and gives it a release date of January 27, 2000-- reasonable, given that the previous 10 were dated July 14, 1999. AV-Channel, however, gives the release date of #11 as August 12, 2005. AV-Channel gives the release date of the first entry of the series as September 23, 2004. A glance around at blogs covering the subject, as well as the archived homepage indicate that the Arzon dates are closer to being correct, even though its coverage of the series is not complete. So let's just say these five videos were released in or around the year 2000.

Angel Alice

It was a busy day at work and at home today, so I didn't get to make any new IMDb submissions. Almost all of the review links that I have been submitting over the past few days went live today, though none of the Pink Eiga biographical links or data did. So today let's take it easy and look at another sweet BBW lovely, Alice Komuro, above and below.

One of Komuro's claims to fame is acting in the cast of the April 2009 MOODYZ crime epic, Pocharlie's Angels. Yep, that's right. The ORIGINAL Pocharlie's Angels. Big girls with guns. Who could ask for anything more?






I don't think I've mentioned here that I like-- I mean I really, REALLY like-- nice, thick legs. Above we see Alice seeming to be mercilessly teasing yours truly with hers.

Will the Owner of a Beautiful Butt Please Report to the Manager

I spent most of the day's online work submitting links to IMDb. These included finishing the reviews at the French site Pink Screen and Twitch Film and some biography links and a few birthdates from Pink Eiga. The day's new, fully live Pink film entries at IMDb are: Nippon-koku keihô dai 177-jo: Gôkan-za (1977), Semi-dokyumento: Zetsu-in (1977), Jôji no hate (1974), and Joshi daisei: Karisome no tsuma (1974).













I came across this blog entry tonight which has the three images of a woman you see in this post. Her face (in the paragraph above) looks slightly, vaguely familiar, but her butt doesn't really. And it probably would if I'd seen it before, because it is very a memorable butt. I can't make out where the blogger gives the model's name, if he does-- or even if the three images are of the same model. If anyone has any information to help identify the images, please share. As it is, I present them here for your enjoyment and edification.

Horny Fat Woman Series, #6-10

I spent most of my online time today adding reviews to Pink films at IMDb to the French site Pink Screen. Since we started out the new month last week with a look at a video series, let's make it a weekly habit for a while. They're easy to post so they give me a chance to catch up here and there, they can highlight an obscure group of videos, and they might even shine light on an interesting new model or two. So, let's sit back and enjoy our second look at the early Japanese BBW series, "Horny Fat Woman". Again, Arzon dates all five of these as July 15, 1999 releases. And again these video covers don't give their models names, and they all appear to have been soapland workers or amateurs.
