The N@ked Direct0r

I might get in hot-water with the authorities, but thought I would offer an endorsement.

All of us here at XHam love good porn. But we can't watch porn all the time, right? Our arms would get too tired and our nuts would ache too much. So we gotta be entertained in some other fashion. I just recently watched the show, The N@ked Direct0r on N3tflix and give it a thumbs up or however the hell movie critics say, yeah - this was worth watching.

The synopsis is this. Its a show about the Japanese porn industry in the 1980's and 90's. The principal character is Toru Muranishi who is a failing encyclopedia salesman who takes up producing and directing porn. Another important character is Kaoru Kuroki who is a lovely, though repressed, lady who pairs with Muranishi to make videos. Her signature look is hairy armpits - how sexy is that? There are other great characters who are all sorta misfits but aid Muranishi in making and distributing videos. The series reveals how Japan has censored videos with blurred images of "private parts" and how Muranishi challenges all that. There are also ties to the Japanese mafia or Yakuza. The story is pretty good and appears to have plenty of ties to the real historical narrative. Is it 100% accurate, probably not but makes for enjoyable viewing. If you want to see lots of nude Japanese ladies, you'll be let down. There plenty of T&A but that's about it. If you're like me and like the Asian ladies, there's plenty of eye candy. There are two seasons of viewing with 16 total shows.

Is is the Boogie Nights of Japan. Not really, but perhaps there's some parallels.

If you've seen it, let me know what you think. CF

Finally got around to watching, just finished the first season...eye opening into the culture of 1980’s Japanese porn. Excellent recommendation! Looking forward to season 2.

I’d have written a tale where Megumi became hugely successful but everyone she knew in her past turned their backs on her, the porn industry tried to press her into ever more degrading acts, and the men in the industry treated her like their personal sex toy. Then I’d weave the tale around how she dealt with that, where she found her strength, how she found support from new friends, and came to terms with those who has left her behind. That would be much more interesting. I’d have key modern JAV idols play many of the supporting roles to bring in their fans as viewers and to make a more interesting mix of adult and mainstream entertainment. And, of course, there would be a mandatory 15 minutes per 50 minute episode in which Megumi was nude. And getting fucked by someone. Or several people. For obvious reasons.

The first few episodes are really good. I have added “bini-bon” to my limited Japanese vocabulary. Misato Morita is breathtaking as Megumi and that character, her budding interest in sex, and her home life is very well realised. But as soon as her role starts to diminish, which happens quite quickly, it all goes down the pan at a rapid rate. After the episode in Hawaii, I haven’t even finished the first series and unless someone promises me that Megumi comes back later on, I am not sure I can be bothered. It’s a waste because there is a fascinating story to be told here and they have a fantastic actress and subject matter that has not been covered much before so a lot could have been done here.

i thought the first season was great.  The second less so.  by the end there were very few characters that i actually cared what happened to them.  overall though, i do give it a thumbs up.
