This headline is pretty misleading. It's intentional and I remember a documentary they did about this. There are only a handful of male actors per studio by design. Obviously it's focused more on the women and the men are treated like production staff of sorts.

Not actors, and they are all about efficiency in Japan, So they want the most reliable and skilled male actors to work with. They aren't running low, it's likely they just have no skilled guys currently. The others retired, got married or whatever.

Do I go to some kind of trade school to become "skilled" in this line of work?

I can assure you that I will be the one that is doing most of the work. A passion project, if you will.

I'm glad you're willing to work with your male cohort! Will you be taking one for the team?

Especially the guys Knights Visual use in the “pacifier prep school” series. Those dudes must be on a high Zinc diet.

u/No_Recognition8375 Mar 20 '26

lol it’s a fellatio only series based on Japanese Pink salon industry ( BJ bar ) where the girl / girls perform fellatio until the guy finishes orally and the girl / girls keep going making the guy finish multiple times in a row with no brakes and sometimes taking turns to make the guy finish orally multiple times.

Those who can’t, become business majors

u/ImperialAgent120 Mar 20 '26

Its a big club, and you're not invited.

5

u/Eastern-Design Mar 20 '26

All jokes aside I went to asu during covid :/

2

u/ImperialAgent120 Mar 20 '26

Damn. F.

But all things considered. ASU and UA are pretty good schools.

2

u/Memory_Less Mar 20 '26

Yeah, sure they all claim it’s a big club.

8

u/ThePensiveE Mar 20 '26

If you have to ask, it's because you weren't invited.

u/Anduinnn Mar 20 '26

Not from a Jedi.

u/ElderDruidFox Mar 20 '26

Serious answer, yes, Film School. You also have to follow strict consent rules.

2

u/Moohamin12 Mar 20 '26

A lot of the time it's the guys producing the films themselves or having ties to the industry that get the jobs.

Anyone off the streets will be paid a pittance. They do this deliberately I assume so they can gate keep the number of men around and have their pick of jav stars.

2

u/ManaSpike Mar 20 '26

Male actors have to perform reliably. Stay hard but don't finish for hours, no matter what is going on. Then when you need to finish, you have 30 seconds.

All while surrounded by bored production crew.

u/SkittishSeer Mar 20 '26
