The 22-year-old Ryoka Oshima (大島涼花) has put her past in the idol group AKB48 firmly behind her and made a bold foray into TV drama acting.
In the new erotic anthology series The Night I Became a Beast, broadcast on online streaming channel Abema Premium (formerly AbemaTV), Oshima plays a lead role in the first episode.
She is shown masturbating in a toilet and also in various love scenes where she is ostensibly naked with a co-star, Reiya Masaki, in the bath or in bed. Though seen in close-up riding him cowgirl at one point, the episode seems to feature no actual nudity.
It’s not quite in the same league as the new season of The Naked Director on Netflix, which features stunning nude sex scenes with Yuri Tsunematsu and Yuka Masuda, but this is still pretty nice by the standards of most Japanese television shows.
Oshima graduated AKB48 in June 2017. Like Yuka Masuda, she was forced to leave the group due to a scandal after she was caught dating a male pop star.
The second episode of The Night I Became a Beast stars Mai Tezuka as a woman with a male lover who is eight years younger.
