Hitomi Hayasaka

Hitomi Hayasaka (早坂ひとみ, Hayasaka Hitomi) is a Japanese actress, business entrepreneur and former adult video (AV) performer.

Life and career

Hayasaka was born on June 28, 1982 in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. She has said that she had very little sexual experience when she started making adult videos.^[2][3]

AV debut - Max-A

Hayasaka was recruited into adult video by a scout^[2][3] and her debut AV, Hito-Mi-X was released on the Max-A Calen label in July 2001 just after her 19th birthday.^[4] In an interview a year later she said she did not know what she was doing in her first tape and did not remember a thing about it.^[2][3] Her second video, also for Max-A, was Don't Close Your Eyes^[5] and Hayasaka said that it was particularly hard for her, bringing her to tears, because she had little experience with adult toys.^[2][3] Hayasaka was acknowledged by fans for her work in her debut year by being named Best New Actress at the 2001 X City Grand Prix Awards held in December 2001.^[6]

Hayasaka continued to perform under an exclusive contract^[7] for Max-A, making one video a month and reaching her tenth work for the studio, and her first bukkake video, The Honeymoon, in April 2002.^[8] Hayasaka has said that AV work became easier for her after three or four videos but by that time her friends were starting to find out about her career and some gave her a tough time and it was not until about her seventh tape that she "decided to continue this as long as I can".^[2][3]

KMP and Real Works

After a number of videos for Crystal-Eizou and Media Station/Cosmos Plan in late 2002, including her first anal sex scene in Princess Butt,^[9] Hayasaka joined the recently formed KMP studio in 2003 and became, along with Nao Oikawa, Ran Monbu and Saori Kamiya, one of the "2003 Million Girls" (ミリオンガールズ2003, Miriongāruzu 2003), an exclusive group of actresses who promoted KMP's Million label,^[10][11] including personal appearances at events throughout Japan.^[12]

In March 2003, Hayasaka joined fellow AV actresses Naho Ozawa, Saori Kamiya, Cocolo, Rei Itoh and Natsuki, to make a 60-minute DVD titled P.I.N. (Perfect Idol's Numbers) demonstrating their singing talent. The DVD with songs and behind the scenes material was released by Vega Factory. In addition to the final ensemble piece, Hayasaka had a solo number, "It's a Fine Day" (作詞/神谷沙織), a song written by Kamiya.^[13][14] The group also performed at live events.^[12]

Hayasaka continued appearing in videos for KMP, several of them directed by Goro Tameike,^[15] but retired briefly after mid-2003.^[7] She returned to KMP in 2004^[7] to become part of another exclusive group of actresses, the "Million Executive" (ミリオンエグゼクティブ, Mirioneguzekutibu) with Nao Oikawa. In 2005 they were joined by Ran Monbu.^[16][17] One of her videos from that period Cosplay Superstar Hitomi Hayasaka, released in August 2004, won an Award for Excellence at the 2004 KMP Million Academy Awards.^[18]

In late 2004, when the new studio Real Works advertised its list of actresses for its first videos, Hayasaka was among them and she appeared in the inaugural video for Real Works, The Real Hitomi Hayasaka, released in January 2005 and directed by Goro Tameike.^[19][20] Hayasaka alternated making adult videos for KMP and Real Works in 2005, including two, Best Friend 3 for KMP^[21] and Double Dream, Super Special for Real Works,^[22] with her real life best friend Naho Ozawa.^[7] At the 2006 Adult Broadcasting Awards, she was nominated for Best Actress for works broadcast on satellite broadcaster SKY PerfecTV! in 2005.^[23][24]

Also in 2005, Hayasaka appeared in the erotic comedy film Ecstasy Express (シベリア超特急・欲望列車, Shiberia Chōtokkyū: yokubō ressha), which had its debut at the Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival in February 2005^[25] and was later shown theatrically in Tokyo in August 2005.^[26] The film starring gravure idol Miku Matsumoto, with appearances by AV actresses Maria Yumeno, Naho Ozawa and Ran Monbu, as well as professional wrestler and AV actor Chocoball Mukai was subsequently released on DVD.^[27][28]

Retirement and later career

At the beginning of 2006 Hayasaka began a "Countdown to Retirement" with seven final productions for Real Works leading to a final retirement video in July 2006.^[29] Her final videos included anal sex and double penetration scenes,^[30] a 100 count bukkake production,^[31] and a bondage movie.^[32]

Soon after her retirement, in November 2006, Hayasaka started up RIZE CUBIC, a talent agency to represent and develop AV actresses.^[7][33] Hayasaka returned to her old studio KMP in May 2007 for a non-sex cameo appearance in the company's entry in the 2007 AV Open competition, Million Dream 2007 Part 1.^[34]

Hayasaka was featured in the mainstream movie Dark Love: Rape (ダーク・ラブ～Rape～, Dāku rabu: Rape), directed by Katsuya Matsumura, which was released in Japan on March 1, 2008. The erotic psycho-thriller starred Dankan and gravure idol Yuu Tejima and was produced by Hayasaka's former AV studio, KMP,^[35][36] which also released it as a DVD in July 2008.^[37] Later in 2008, she appeared in the erotic action film Secret Undercover Investigation: Wildcats in Strip Royale (秘密潜入捜査官　ワイルドキャッツ in ストリップ ロワイアル, Himitsu sennyū sousakan: Wairudokyattsu in Sutorippu Rowaiaru), released by Toei in June 2008, starring Reon Kadena and gravure idol Yuri Morishita.^[38][39]

In December 2008, Hayasaka was involved in opening a cabaret called "Club@virgin" in Tokyo's Roppongi district^[7] with the hostess conversation being provided by up to 25 AV actresses on any given night, including such attractions as Hayasaka, good friend Naho Ozawa, and retired actress Hotaru Akane.^[40][41] By early 2012, Hayasaka had opened another club in Roppongi called "Hinaka", part of a growing trend in Tokyo of establishments where clientele could meet AV actresses and pay a fee for a seat and 90 minutes of company.^[42] Once again, the main attractions were Hayasaka and Naho Ozawa.^[43]
