Takatsuki Admires a BBW


My IMDb new film submissions over the past week hit the jackpot today. A couple dozen Pink/Roman Porno entries went live today, with complete cast and crew, and links to the Picasaweb album associated with my Pink film archive. Submitting to IMDb isn't as instantly-gratifying as at a Wiki, but, in the long run, I think the work there is more lasting. Despite the claims of Wikipedia editors, IMDb is given much more credit as a "reliable source" by real reliable sources than any Wiki is. I've seen IMDb consulted in several serious books on film. Also, submissions to IMDb are safer from instant vandalism, or removal by edit-warring rule-quoters. Once a submission has passed IMDb staff approval, it's there to stay, barring a change backed up with good reason and evidence.

I had been considering going back to work on IMDb biographies during my half hour-45 minute afternoon sessions, but I've decided against that. I am still in poster/film mode, and don't have the biographical databases lined up like I did before I really sank my teeth into getting the poster archives complete. The acceptance of biographical data at IMDb has gotten to be unbelievably slow also-- several weeks, as opposed to a couple days to accept a new film entry. So the bio work was moving slowly and frustratingly. Instead I will go to work on the post-1990 archive, just identifying the posters in the Picasaweb album and saving the links to submit film entries & posters to IMDb later, after I'm done with the pre-1990 project.

In case you are wondering about the images that decorate this post, they are evidence that our old hero, producer/director Akira Takatsuki, over at at GAS, seems to have finally jumped on the BBW bandwagon with the announcement of next month's debut of Sora Nanami in Chônyû Sora: O-cup no eroi onna no ko debut (超乳そら: Oカップのエロい女の子デビュー; GAS-256; Sep 22, 2012).

According to the video clip accompanying the announcement, her bust began developing in the fourth grade, by the start of middle school it was decided she had better start wearing a bra. She was an I-cup by that point. Her entrance into high school was with an L-cup, and she was sporting an M-cup by the age of 19, at which point she had her first sexual experience. Her current O-cup was reached at the age of 22. The video clip can be seen in WMV format or MP4.

P.S. Sora Nanami was apparently featured at Tokyo Topless in this layout, and is the subject of a second feature in the September 2, 2012 update. Though Tokyo Topless usually mentions the models' appearances in GAS DVDs, oddly, this one does not mention Sora's. The Tokyo Topless pictures don't show her face, or give her last name, but the measurements are similar (not identical) to those given at GAS, and she is listed as a moenorinjin girl, her profile at which our friend Adipose previously discovered.... Anyway, this casts some minor doubts as to whether these are actually the same two Sora's...

    1. Good find! This one:

      gives a profile confirming some of the statistics presented in the video clip.
      If anyone deserves to be called the "Russ Meyer of Japan", it's probably Akira Takatsuki. I'm speaking of his promotion of voluptuous models. Whether his directorial flair compares at all to Meyer, I wouldn't know, not having seen any of his films. He goes back to the Nikkatsu Roman Porno days, though I don't know if his work at that time tended towards the busty. His career is certainly deserving of in-depth research a post one of these days.
