I spent this summer collecting information on Tokusatsu actors who participated in porn over the years. To my surprise, I ended up with a rather lengthy list, so I thought I'd share "my findings" somewhere.
The case of Takayuki Tsubaki is the best known in the community.
It's no secret that many actors/models in the country, despite having agencies that represent them and all, do porn videos to earn some money. This seeming to be the case with Takayuki.
Now, here's some history:
A dispute between COAT and a gay store Lumiere started around 2002.
Lumiere was popular for selling gay videos at a lower price than other gay stores, logically some manufacturers disliked this a lot, because it was not profitable.
One day, COAT opened a directly operated video store from Sapporo to the whole country. In response, Lumiere tried to shut out COAT's new products from the stores, selling them at a high price and at a discount at used stores.
Both sides started to get other video makers to collaborate with them so that way, they could compete with the sells.
The dispute then turned into a battle of exposing the models.
Lumiere exposed Kazuhito Tadano (baseball player) and Kota Kamimura (rugby player) to the press. COAT immediately reacted to this, exposing Genta Akanuma (another former rugby player who had appeared in two productions of JAPAN PICTURES, the leading video maker on Lumiere's field.)
The dispute continued until at least 2004, which was when Takayuki Tsubaki got exposed by Lumiere.
Much to his misfortune, Takayuki was at the time the lead of Kamen Rider Blade (a popular franchise for kids) and not only that, but the show's movie was on theathers when the video surfaced... so he obviously was on the lips of all the gossip networks.
The title in question is "POWER GRIP 107 Idol New HERO MAX ~あの戦隊ヒーロー達がここに結集".
I can't tell exactly when this video was filmed, but i'd say it was in late 2003, since he looks just the same as he looked in Kamen Rider Blade, which began broadcasting in January 2004.
Still, I have some doubts surrounding this particular subject, since both the VHS and DVD were released in July of 2004. I highly doubt he'll do JAV while playing such a big role....
Another interesting thing I noticed is the video's title. I don't think it has "hero" on the title by coincidence.
In addition to Takayuki's participation, the video also features a guy who resembles Taiyo Sugiura, who was the lead of Ultraman Cosmos (another popular franchise for kids).
Did COAT want to take advantage of the fact that they had a Kamen Rider in their catalog and that's why they scouted a look-alike and gave it that title? Or was Takayuki involved in the video already casted?
Regardless of the options, I doubt that COAT wanted to cause him any harm. Lumiere on the other hand...
Anyway, Takayuki never said a word about it, nor did his agency.
Reading Japanese forums from that time, I discovered that the gossip portals stopped talking about it after a few days, deleting their articles as well. (Probably thanks to his agency and Toei itself, the company that owns Kamen Rider.)
Among many messages from people shocked about the whole thing back in 2004, I found one person who took the time to transcribe everything that was said in the video. So I subbed the entire thing. Except for the last minute.
It's not a big thing, just a quick handjob and blowjob... but but it's not every day that we get to watch subtitled porn.
