The Maker Speaks
Y: Those ones are anticipated to be a bigger hit. We filmed because of desire to know and see when we started adult videos. Just at the moment when AVs could be lucrative, however, a lot of people from different business entered, which changed the condition. That was just like the end of the Pink Films. Everything has to spoil when it becomes industry. So what I have done is truly belonging to the minority now.
■ I agree your works do not belong to the majority now. “The Interview” series from 1993 is also not make-believe, is it?
Y: All real. The interview corps in the series is like one village community in the male line because there are some brats and its hierarchy, which shows they bully and caress each other. I can find Japanese racial characteristics among them since it has existed with no unnatural devices. Moreover, although those are adult videos, look like a kind of funny stories at times. I guess it is mostly because of the leader of the corps, Ichihara Katsuya who has acted since the volume 1.
■ Men play the main roles in adult videos…?
Y: That is not what I mean. Adult video actresses are difficult to be active for a long time. Most of them are destined to retire for marriage or something ill within a decade. Actors, on the other hand, can go with me for some decades like Hiramoto Kazuho (ex-AV actor) quitted at his 20th year. So “The Interview” can welcome women, supposing there is a good relationship between the corps and me.
■ Then, it goes as happy-go-lucky as men and women.
Y: “The Interview” series have cut aspects of the times, therefore. I had, at one time, interviewed a lot of women who said “I long to be raped in making a video although I hate it in the real world.” Then, I filmed the corps raped those women, and a feminists’ group marched into our office. Now women are stronger than men. There are some who use professional technique in her sex. So it often goes as women rape men. And the male actors give up on the way LOL.
■ I am a man and then, can understand our lust is hardly stimulated by strong women. Is now the time that real intercourse is difficult to realize?
Y: Most of women lately neglect love affair and warmth of skin. They like to masturbate using smart phones and vibrators more than sex with a man. Women tend to dislike having a boyfriend. They hold some sex friends if they desired to do it. So love affair is difficult to be. I found those females have increased. Men have become so, have not they? Both man and woman only long to feel good. Japan has grown up such people. No way to stop the current, I guess.
Eating and having sex are fundamental human activities. Food is necessary to keep individuals. Sex a species. We might internationally be proud of our dietary culture. On the other hand, sex is being on the verge of destruction like it is going to cause a crisis of Japan. I understood, at the judgement mentioned before, the government were unable showing the conception of dirtiness, what was obscene in other words. No reason for them to show since feeling filthy is a kind of the subjectivity. So they did nothing but refer to past precedents. The government people are too ignorant about sex, our most fundamental activity to face with the issue justly. Accordingly, the crowd cannot help watching adult videos as if to read a textbook of sex.
■ Indeed, recently, most of Japanese have tended to put a lid on something sexual. So they are inexperienced at sex, and believe imitating AV actors is having sex. However, adult videos are almost full of pretenses, too.
Y: Already in 1980s, we found that tendency and felt something going wrong. In partnership with two true couples in love “Kato Taka and Itsuki Mariko” & “Hibino Tatsuro and Kano Yoko,” I directed and released an adult video “Ejaculate inside!” in 1990 because I believed we had responsibility to show then watchers what real sexual intercourse between the two in love was. The title is from what Itsuki Mariko said in lovemaking with Kato Taka. That was surprising a lot since they did not use any rubbers. AV actors used to ejaculate on actresses’ faces or bellies at the time.
■ Men will be happy when his girlfriend tells him so, although I have no idea about female mind.
Y: No reason to disagree. There is no pleasure more than that. “Ejaculate inside!” made a big hit as I was surprised at the large quantity of those who desired to watch true sex. It did not become the mainstream, however.
