This is a question we often ask ourselves about Japanese pornography.
With tens of thousands of actresses working in the industry, said to be the biggest in the world, which star has appeared in the most titles?
Apparently we weren’t alone in wondering this, since some Japanese netizens have done the maths. Naturally the results steer older since the longer a career, the more titles you would have under your belt… though we never have any objections to a sexy Japanese MILF or two!
1. Yumi Kazuma (1,646 films)
2. Tsubomi (1,370 films)
3. Rio Hamasaki (1,201 films)
4. Reiko Sawamura (aka Honami Takasaka) (1,150 films)
5. Kokomi Naruse (1,101 films)
6. Yuu Kawakami (1,097 films)
7. Misa Yuuki (1051 films)
8. Ryoko Murakami (1,001 films)
9. Akiho Yoshizawa (957 films)
10. Chisato Shoda (913 films)
Runners-up include Elly Arai (aka Yuka Osawa, aka Elly Akira) (871 films) (#11) and Haruki Sato (838 films) (#12) and Hibiki Otsuki (690 films) (#20).
The numbers may not be fully accurate — either way, every week most of these ladies will be adding one or more to their tallies! — but certainly go some way to indicating the incredible career that major stars have, as well as the stamina and skills they must possess in order to stay at the top of their game.
It is also interesting to note that the kind of Japanese porn stars most popular overseas (Maria Ozawa and Sola Aoi) are not necessarily the biggest stars in their game when it comes to domestic performance.
