It seems that Friday got wind of the upcoming December release of a new movie
entitled "The University of Tokyo Virgin Inspection: Painful Entry through the
'Red Gate,'" from a distributor named @JUNKIE.
The Red Gate (Akamon in Japanese) is the name applied to hallowed entranceway
of Japan's most elite academic institution, among whose graduates include prime
ministers and top leaders in business and industry.
The film stars "Ukaru Todaiji" (a pseudonym), age 21, who relinquishes her
virginity in the course of her first porn performance. Ms. Todaiji was later
introduced on a program broadcast by the commercial satellite channel Sky
Perfect on November 24.
"It was the first time in the AV industry's history that such a performance was
attempted," says Kemuta Otsubo, an AV scenario writer. "Just imagine -- a real
University of Tokyo co-ed losing her virginity on camera. Todai girls have
previously appeared in AV productions, but none had ever lost their virginity
like this. It's mind-boggling."
While photos accompanying the Friday story only show the well-endowed young
woman from the neck down, the reporter, who met her in the flesh, describes the
21-year-old student as having an "innocent" facial expression and 90cm bustline
that tests the tensile strength of the buttons on her blouse.
Nevertheless Ms. Todaiji apparently has brains as well as boobs; she reportedly
scored a perfect 200 on her English-language entrance exams. Looking around for
some part-time work, her eyes fell on a classified ad seeking models. She was
at first flustered to find that the job involved disrobing and engaging in sex
before a camera, but when she was told the size of the... remuneration, she
rationalized her decision, saying it would contribute to the cost of her
education.
"I was unfamiliar with the ways of the world, and wanted to change myself," she
says, explaining why she made to the decision to take the job.
Ms. Todaiji is apparently the third Todai co-ed to appear in such a film. The
first, who went under the professional name Midori Kuwana, appeared in the 1992
production, "A Woman in the Top Institution Makes Her Debut." The second was
"Meet Mako Takada, A Sophomore at the University of Tokyo," released in 2001.
"She (Takada) showed her student ID in the film, which indicated she was in the
Faculty of Humanities," recalls a male graduate of the institution. "Several
dozen guys jammed into one of her classes so they could get a closer look at
her in the flesh."
What's more, the audacious Ms. Takada coupled with her male counterpart while
actually on the Todai campus, leading infuriated school administrators to file
a vigorous protest with the AV producer.
A spokesperson for the institution tells Friday that the school subsequently
adopted measures to protect the names "Todai" and "University of Tokyo" from
similar instances of callous commercialization.
"But in the case of the previous two films, we were unable to determine the
actual identities of the females involved, so we couldn't take any action
against them," he says.
Aha, notes Friday. This time, since the student's face appears in the film,
finding out who she is should be a breeze. But on the other hand, the school
has no authority to tell students what kind of part-time jobs they may or may
not pursue, so expulsion or suspension don't appear to be an option. In the
meantime, the controversy continues to rage, both inside and outside the
institution's famed "Red Gate."
