The popular AV stars give us a peek behind the photo shoot for their new promotion.
In comic book-obsessed Japan, even dojinshi self-published works are a booming industry, with events and stores dedicated to selling and promoting the unique fanzines, manga and novels that exist within the trade.
Comic Tora no Ana, a Japanese dojin shop specialising in manga-related items, is currently looking to stand out from its competitors with a unique goods campaign that’s making news thanks to the two stars helping to promote it.
Jessica Kizaki and Airi Kijima, two of the country’s well-known AV idols, are teaming up as the “Nozomi Sisters” to showcase some of the lesser-known products available from the Tora no Ana online store, and a recent video shows the behind-the-scenes action that went into their creation.
Check out the video below:

According to the campaign tagline, Tora no Ana stocks “more than just fanzines”, and the Nozomi Sisters prove this point nicely in the video, by discussing some of the body pillow cases on the site, which are currently emblazoned with their images.
▼ The cases retail for 15,000 yen (US$139.65) each.
▼ There are also cushion covers for 5,000 yen.
The collection also includes T-shirts for 4,500 yen, life-sized tapestries for 8,000 yen, and acrylic figurine stands for 2,500 yen, all showing the girls in a variety of skimpy outfits like maid’s costumes and virgin-killing sweaters.
The idols are doing a good job of promoting the campaign on their social media channels as well, with Kizaki sharing this photo of the body pillow cases on her Twitter account.
https://twitter.com/kizaki_jessica/status/966229384154685441Customers who make a purchase during the campaign period, which runs until 27 March, will also go in the running to win one of 50 signed photographs from the photo shoot, and one of the two bathrobes worn by the models in the promotional video.
To check out all the details, head over to the official campaign site, and if you’re looking to purchase some of the cat keyhole lingerie seen on the AV stars, head over here for all the information – and pictures – you need.
