Fuko / Love at Tokyo Topless, #3

Tonight's film-acquiring project was mostly devoted to the oeuvre of Antonio Margheriti. He's a spaghetti-western/genre director I've been wanting to investigate since his name was dropped in Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds in 2009.
I obtained, for my future viewing pleasure, Margeriti's The Long Hair of Death (1964), And God Said to Cain (1969), Finalmente... le mille e una notte ("House of 1000 Pleasures; 1972), The Stranger and the Gunfighter (1974), and Alien from the Deep (1989). I also got his Flesh for Frankenstein, co-directed with Paul Morrissey, which I remember from its 1973 US advertising campaign as "Andy Warhol's Frankenstein". I also picked up the non-Margheriti A Long Ride From Hell (1968)-- former Hercules Steve Reeves' only Spaghetti western, directed by Camillo Bazzoni, and two early films by José Mojica Marins, Brazil's "Coffin Joe": At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul (1964) and This Night I Will Possess Your Corpse (1967).
But now down to the subject of tonight's post: We come to the last of Fuko's three early appearances at Tokyo Topless under the pseudonym (as if "Fuko" weren't a pseudonym) of "Love".
The images of this third photo set were probably my favorite of Fuko's three appearances at Tokyo Topless. I particularly enjoyed theses because they show the full volume of her massive boobage lying down, flopping around, all splayed out in their full glory.
These three Tokyo Topless photo displays were released in March 2005. They were taken down, and re-uploaded with her face cropped out in June, and then they disappeared.
My guess is that Fuko quit the soapland work at this time in preparation for a more "innocent" image which would emerge a couple years later. We didn't hear anything from her again until March 2007, with the release of the gravure (non-nude) DVD Fuko P!.
When her first gravure DVD was released, Fuko became a minor celebrity in Japan for nothing other than the spectacular size of her bust. She appeared on TV shows and in other media.
Sharp-eyed boob-fans recognized her from the old Tokyo Topless shoots, and it quickly became an open secret that she had posed topless. If the two years in hiding were just to try to cover these slightly disreputable photos, it was all for nothing, because within two years of her gravure debut, she was doing hardcore JAVs. Her hardcore porn career will be the subject of another series of posts later on.
Also, about the time of these Tokyo Topless appearances, she was appearing at soaplands, and I have some images and a video clip of her that was used at one of the sites. Tomorrow, to conclude our look at boob-princess Fuko's early career, I'll devote another post to that site and video clip.

    1. Hi anonymous. I hope they don't disappoint-- they're all face-cropped photos... I'll try to get them up tonight or tomorrow morning!

  2. Hi! I love Fuko and find her face and personality adorable, but you don't, that's fine with me.

    Cutie Fat Luu's priced dropped down to $6.50: a total of $11.50 for a 2100Y plus shipping book.

    I held off because I'm trying to convey an image of asexuality (as in no one) outside of the Internet...but fuck it. I love these big girls and if my friends don't dance, well, they're no friends of mine.

    If after Thanksgiving is what I have to wait, so be it!

    1. Hi Brandt. I don't dislike Fuko, and really followed her a lot in the early days. It was about the time of the JAV DVDs that my image of her changed, not in a good way... I kind of wish she'd just stuck to cutesy gravure and topless photos... Good luck with the LUU book!

    1. True, and she has in recent years. Unfortunately she's got no butt at all... but you can't have everything!
