You can now visit our old (archive) site from 2002 to November 2023!

It still has a MASSIVE TON of very useful info and to me it feels like a piece of our site’s history!

There are thousands of picture galleries for old DVDs that haven’t been transferred over.

It would have taken hundreds of hours to do that.

As you may remember, we had to transfer from an HTML/CSS site to a CMS (Content Management System).

Since the old site didn’t have a database I couldn’t transfer all that info easily.

The site lists DVDs added between 2002 and November 2023 ONLY. Nothing past those date.

ALL the DVDs are available on the new site.

What to buy something listed on the old site? Just search for it on the new one.

I’d suggest searching for the catalog numbers using the format as ABC-001 or ABC001.

I transferred the DVDs based on… JPG file names. That’s why many are like DDM004, DDM001 etc (minus the dash).

What’s on the old site:

1. Picture Galleries for thousands of older DVDs. Most bukkake and gokkun titles.
2. JPG video thumbnails for thousands of DVDs that are not in the above genre.
3. Reviews & scene reviews for possibly thousands of bukkake and gokkun DVDs.
4. Actress names for DVDs listed before November 2023 (I transfered about 25% of them).

PLEASE NOTE: The html picture galleries are 100% NOT mobile friendly. They were made before cell phones became popular!

I also previously put the old site on some “Object Storage” provided by my web host. It was PAINFULLY SLOW! Now it’s fully hosted on an SSD (Solid State Drive) and should load super fast.

The old site might not be useful for many people. I’ve done it just for people to look up old info.

Unfortunately there is no way to add a search function to that old site.

Today I added back about 12,000 JAV DVDs!

I should have listened to something that’s ALWAYS worked well for the site since 2002…”If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!”.

Yes, that and “Keep it simple, stupid” have always worked well for me when running this site!

So anyway, long story short. Earlier last year I thought offering less DVDs would somehow allow me to ship orders faster. I would have less DVDs to search through. This sounds like a good idea, BUT….I did not plan for the long term effects of losing so many products.

For example, loss of Google and other search engine traffic. Plus, many customers do like older DVDs that may now be super rare and hard to find.

The DVDs I had removed were ONLY titles that haven’t sold even ONCE in a full year. It’s not likely many would have bought them.

My sales have tanked a lot recently and this could be why. I am actively working to improve everything. I’m kind of in panic mode.

I’m hoping that by bringing these all back it will boost sales a little and help me to continue to run the site for at least another 6 months to a year.

Things are extremely tough right now. I know it may be hard to believe, but physical media just doesn’t sell as well as it has in the past.

I am still a huge believer in physical media for video games, music and movies. Sometimes I like digital products, but for more expensive items I NEED a physical DISC! I don’t think I could ever get a video game console without physical media support.

This site has been running non-stop for nearly 23 years. I want to keep it going for as long as I can! Hopefully this helps.

Sometimes I forget what made this site such a success. I think back in the day it was all my products reviews, plus screenshots. I had useful info for rare bukkake DVDs that nobody could find elsewhere.

I now need to almost consider this site as like an archive for very old JAV movies. Some titles i’ve offered that were removed were probably not found anywhere else on the internet due to rarity!

I also would like to bring back the old bloated HTML picture galleries for bukkake videos. I have 30-50gb of them and they are not mobile friendly and quite ugly. I think it will be worth it. I think it’s better than no preview at all! It’s nearly impossible to convert them to a more modern format. I’ll try though.

If you are considering an order, please place one ASAP if at all possible. It would really help us out. Large or small is very helpful! Every order helps.

If you get a few minutes, please also check on all those old DVDs I added back. They’re kind of mixed in unfortunately and there was no good way to specify which ones were added back. They were previously set to “private” or “hidden” on the site.

The Lesbian area definitely got a massive ton more DVDs! That’s our #1 most popular area these days. I just wish they had more new releases in Japan for that genre every month. They are rarely produced anymore. Maybe less than 10-20 per month, if that.

I still can’t believe it’s been nearly 23 years already since I started this site! What has kept us going is all the loyal and repeat customers. Without you we never would have survived. I still remember the days when I was processing my orders using yellow invoice sheets. Writing down all the VHS tapes I need to process for each order. Yes, I used to sell only VHS video tapes once! I don’t think we started selling DVDs until 2004.

Thank You!!

Today I added the following new digital downloads to the site:

1. DASS-285 with Hibiki Ootsuki &  Noa Amaharu – #4 Best Seller of 2024!
2. SONE-248 with Hikaru Nagi – K-cup Big Breast title and the #7 Best Seller of 2024.
3. BBAN-509 – A more recent Lesbian title.
4. NHDTB-806 – Lesbian title with Kana Yura AND Rara Kudou. #11 Best Seller of 2024.
5. BBAN-505
6. AUKG-587 – #9 Best Seller of 2024.
7. BBAN-461 – #6 Best Seller of 2024.
8. IESP-734 – #3 Best Seller of 2024.

Guess what the #1 Best Seller of 2024 was? It is the masterpiece LADY-098 with Rina Hatsume & Maki Houjou!

It has the older and younger (18+) woman theme that people seem to like.

Ever since i’ve added it, it’s always been a best seller!

On the 21st and 22nd I added a total of 128 DVDs to the site. As always, nearly every single one is a VERY recent release!

I also added thumbnail previews for most of them.

In addition to that I also made a December 2024 covers zip archive for you of full size JPG covers.

It lets advanced and/or desktop users view all the big covers with your own image viewer.

December is a very very rough month for us, so any orders big or small are VERY appreciated!

It will allow us to continue adding DVDs for everyone.

I even added a new free shipping offer. Now any USA order over $90 gets free Priority Mail.

Normally for me it’s $10-$11 the last I checked.

You might be wonder why there might not be tons of titles in your favorite genre in some monthly updates.

It’s most likely because there just isn’t that many New releases in that genre in Japan that month.

It seems like they produce less and less Lesbian titles in Japan these days.

I really do my best to add as much variety as possible, NOT just the ones that look great to me ONLY (but it’s tempting!).

I also took more steps to make the site as fast as possible!

We get a Google pagespeed score of 99/100 for mobile!

It’s all due to our caching software, Nginx and other tricks to speed things up.

Sometimes we even get a TTFB (time to first byte) of as low as 90ms. That’s pretty impressive IMO for a WordPress based E-commerce site.

As you may know, I am a computer “nerd” and manage our own Linux web server. I’ve done that since 2002!

It’s one of my personal favorite videos of 2024.

I figured maybe people might prefer 1080p over 720p?

This is sort of a small test since the digital downloads haven’t been popular..like at all, YET!

It’s FWAY-009 starring Momoka Kagura.

Big breast titles were not really on my radar until earlier this year.

I had seen some old Yulia Nova nude videos and really loved them!

That started my interest in them.

Then I got FWAY-009 and absolutely loved it! I’ve watched it over and over.

Then I discovered I loved K-cup plus Gravure idol movies.

Those are incredibly hard to find! At least the ones I want!

I think it’s because they’re all non-nude and that doesn’t appeal to some.

I personally find them even hotter than the ones with nudity or sex!

VISIT the OLD SITE: https://www.japansm.com/old-site/

I don’t normally like to keep it up as an archive, but i’ve made the old site available again for informational purposes.

There are a TON of picture previews for titles found on that site that haven’t been added to the current site.

The old site only has DVDs that were added/released before November 2023.

It also has ALL the missing actress info that wasn’t added to the new site.

EVERYTHING on the old site can be purchased on the new site.

When searching try typing out the catalog number without the dash first. Try “DDM004” and then “DDM-004”.

I imported all the DVDs to the new database based on DVD cover file names!

It saved me from manually typing out 15-20k products!

The old site used HTML5 and CSS. There was no database I could just import to get all the actress names etc.

If you recall, the old site was perfectly fine except that my old shopping cart provider’s shopping cart stopped working properly.

I practically begged for them to fix it but they refused and claimed it was fine.

I basically had to start a new site over from scratch!

Plus the hardest part is I had absolutely NO CLUE how to use WordPress or any newer Ecommerce software.

I learned it all by Youtube videos!

I’ve had a bit of nostalgia today of running the site for so many years.

I started back in 2002 with a single page selling bukkake videos.

Due to my interest in that content, the site just kept growing and growing.

I slowly invested in it and upgraded all it’s equipment.

It’s hard to believe, but now we have 20,000 DVDs available!

I’ve been a bit discouraged lately. Physical Media isn’t as popular as it once was.

It’s not dead. Like me, there are still a TON of people who love and PREFER physical media!

I just don’t think it’s possible to keep the site going for another 5 years without offering some sort of digital downloads.

 

We are doing a test run of offering an extremely limited amount of digital downloads for sale.

It will be some of our best selling titles along with maybe a few new releases from genres that sell well (Lesbian etc).

The problem with selling digital downloads is that the files are extremely huge and the hosting/bandwidth to offer them is very expensive. At the start we’ll only be selling them in 720p HD format. Movies that were shot in Standard Definition (SD) will be offered in 480p.

If our tests are a success we’ll start offering more and more videos. Any purchases made will definitely make me want to continue adding as many as possible. Originally I wanted to only sell Lesbian movies in digital format, but i’ll see how it goes.

To be honest, i’ve resisted the temptation to offered any digital downloads for years. Maybe that was a mistake? One reason is that I didn’t know how to do it. It would have been impossible on our old site we had in 2023. The new site now finally makes this all possible!

I’m kind of excited about finally offering digital products though! I think this may be the solution to keeping the site going for many more years! I know it’s going to happen and it will be a success.

Please check the above page frequently because I plan on adding more soon.

Possibly as many as 6 more titles by Wednesday the 30th.

 

On September 21st 2024 I added about 120 new releases to the September 2024 updates page.

Hopefully there is something for everyone. I can’t wait to watch a few of them myself.

You may have noticed the site was down for 5-6 hours yesterday.

A bad plugin corrupted a configuration file! It took me forever to fix it!

What a headache. I’m just glad that I didn’t have to restore anything from backups.

Running this site has now become a major challege, but i’m working as hard as I can! 12-14 hours daily and 7 days a week!

Please consider placing a order if at all possible. Large or small is greatly appreciated and will help us to keep adding new movies for everyone!

Thank You!

Should be online within the next day. These are mostly for very old titles that link to a gallery in their product description. You may have noticed a few of them giving a “404” error. These are the ones returning.

The url usually has /old-site/gallery/ in it.

I’ve had those all offline for a few months. It’s because they took up nearly 70gb of space and the new server didn’t have that much storage. Hard to believe that 70gb went to just html and JPG files!

Plus many of them are severely bloated for picture previews. I made the mistake of having them use a single html page for EVERY full size image. Not a good idea! Many were made back in 2004 and are not mobile friendly at all (a requirement these days).

I might also put up the old site as an informational site again. It’s still a good reference I think.

I know that a lot of JAV collectors may want to see old reviews, previews and actress info.

I never was able to copy all the old information to the new site. It would have taken 6-12 months and doing that for hours daily is not something I could manage. There are no automated tools for doing that since I used plain HTML and the old site didn’t have a database.

I’m still amazing how I previously did every update by hand on the old site using HTML! It was so time consuming! Now I just add it all to a CSV file and import it all.

PS the old site closed in November of 2023. Only because my OLD shopping cart provider would not fix their broken cart. I was a subscriber of their service for 15+ years too.

Today while processing orders I managed to add 93 new DVD releases to the site!

Previously I added around 84 on the 5th of September.

You can also view ALL the full size covers in the September Full Size Covers gallery.

Lots of variety this time as usual. I think I might start offering slightly less mature woman titles. Those just don’t sell as well for whatever reason. I do love a lot of them though, especially the ones with Mako Oda.

My general rule though is to add as many new Lesbian titles as I possibly can! In this update I added a few new Bibian (BBAN-) titles along with a huge compilation in the BBSS- series. As you many know, Lesbian movies that start with BBSS- are nearly always compilation and 4+ hours long (2 discs).

These days I am rarely “WOWed” with any new movies. It’s probably because I’ve seen so many. The one i’ve been loving is a VERY softcore title with Momoka Kagura. I’m not usually into big breast movies, but I absolutely love FWAY-009 with her!

Here is a cover of FWAY-009:

 

A trailer too for those that are curious:

 

I’m trying to find her other recent softcore movie MBRBN-052, but it seems impossible to track down!

Would be amazing to see a Ai Kano softcore movie from the Fair Way studio too.

Some find softcore movies boring, but I absolutely love them. Sometimes I find them hotter than some of the hardcore stuff.  Softcore content in specific genres is pretty hard to find though. Usually it’s just posing etc.
